OptMeowt Extension

With the introduction of privacy regulations such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Web users have a right to limit the sale and sharing of their personal information. OptMeowt automates the process of sending opt out signals indicating the users' preferences upon visiting a website.

If you encounter an issue with your use of OptMeowt, feel free to check our FAQ \\ Known quirks section at https://github.com/privacy-tech-lab/gpc-optmeowt/wiki/FAQ-%5C-Known-quirks or send us an email.

Note: We do not collect any data from you. Third parties will also not receive your data. The permissions OptMeowt is using are required for opting you out. You can learn more and view the source code at https://github.com/privacy-tech-lab/gpc-optmeowt.
