CCPA Opt Out Assistant Extension

In the modern world, your personal data is often collected and sold by companies, even when you don’t realize it. This extension is here to help.

With the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), California residents have the right to opt out of the sale of their personal data for any and all websites that sell it. But it can be difficult to determine which websites actually sell this data, and how to opt out on those that do.

With this extension, you are automatically notified every time you access a site that sells your data. You can exercise your rights and opt out through our popup, or whitelist a site and stop receiving notifications for it. Either way, you stay informed about how your data is being used, and are enabled to exercise your rights.

Our permissions are used to store information about which sites you no longer wish to receive notifications for. We do not and will never collect any personally identifying information from any of our users.
