Your California Privacy Rights and Choices Under CCPA/CPRA

Last Updated: January 16, 2026

S.Y.M Garage Door & Gate Services ("S.Y.M," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA). This page explains your rights regarding the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information and how to exercise them.

Understanding "Sale" and "Sharing" Under California Law

Important Definition

Under CCPA/CPRA, "sale" has a broader definition than you might expect. It includes sharing personal information with third parties for valuable consideration, even if no money changes hands.

What Constitutes a "Sale" or "Sharing"?

Under the CCPA/CPRA, these terms are defined as:

  • "Sale": Sharing personal information with third parties for monetary or other valuable consideration
  • "Sharing": Sharing personal information with third parties for cross-context behavioral advertising (targeting ads based on your behavior across different websites)

Our Position on Sales and Sharing

S.Y.M Garage Door & Gate Services does not "sell" your personal information in the traditional senseof exchanging it for money. However, we want to be completely transparent about our practices:

  • Social Media Pixels: We may use Facebook Pixel or similar tools to measure ad effectiveness
  • Advertising Technologies: We may use remarketing tools to show relevant ads on other websites

Activities That Do NOT Constitute Sales:

  • Sharing information with service providers who help us operate our business (under contractual restrictions)
  • Sharing information required by law or to protect our rights
  • Sharing information with your consent for a specific purpose
  • Sharing information necessary to complete a transaction you requested
