4. How We Use Personal Information
We use personal information to: process orders and payments; fulfill shipments and handle returns; provide customer support and respond to claims; prevent fraud and secure the Site; send transactional emails about your order; send marketing emails where you have opted in; comply with legal obligations; measure and improve Site performance; and personalize the Site experience where you have consented.
5. Disclosures to Third Parties
We disclose personal information for the business purposes identified in § 3 to the service providers and contractors listed, each of whom is bound by contract to use the information only for the specified purpose. We also disclose personal information where required by law, legal process, or to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.
6. Sale and Sharing of Personal Information
We do not sell personal information for monetary consideration.
Under CPRA, "sharing" includes disclosing personal information to third parties for cross-context behavioral advertising, even when no money changes hands. When advertising cookies and pixels (such as Meta Pixel, Google Ads tags, or similar) are active on the Site with your consent, those disclosures may constitute "sharing" under CPRA.
You have the right to opt out of this sharing at any time. To exercise this right, use the link below:
➡ Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information
We also honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) browser signal as a valid opt-out of sale/sharing under 11 C.C.R. § 7025. When your browser sends a GPC signal, we treat it as an opt-out request for the browser and, where we can reasonably identify you, for your account.
In the past 12 months, we have not sold personal information. In the past 12 months, we have shared the categories identified in § 3 as "Sharing for cross-context behavioral advertising" with the advertising and analytics vendors listed, in each case only to the extent you had enabled or consented to advertising cookies.
7. Minors
TeslaEmblems.com does not knowingly collect personal information from consumers under the age of 16. Consistent with CPRA § 1798.120(c), we do not sell or share the personal information of consumers under 16 without affirmative authorization (opt-in from the consumer if 13–15; from a parent/guardian if under 13). If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 16 without the required authorization, we will delete it.
8. Your CCPA/CPRA Rights
If you are a California resident, you have the following rights, each exercisable twice in any 12-month period at no charge:
- Right to Know (§ 1798.110): the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, the sources, the business/commercial purposes, and the categories of third parties to whom we disclosed or with whom we shared it, over the preceding 12 months (and, upon request, beyond 12 months to the extent we have retained the information from on or after January 1, 2022, except where it would be impossible or disproportionate).
- Right to Delete (§ 1798.105): deletion of personal information we have collected from you, subject to statutory exceptions (e.g., completing a transaction, security, legal compliance).

- Right to Opt Out of Sale/Sharing (§ 1798.120): see § 6 and the Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information link.
- Right to Limit Use of Sensitive Personal Information (§ 1798.121): we only use sensitive personal information (payment-card data) for the transaction you requested, within the § 1798.121(d) exception, so no limit-use link is required; you may still submit a limit-use request to the contact in § 2.
- Right to Non-Retaliation (§ 1798.125): we will not deny goods, charge different prices, or provide different service for exercising these rights.

We use cookies and similar technologies for Site operation, analytics, and (where you consent) advertising measurement. You can control cookies through our cookie preference tool and your browser settings. Essential cookies required for the Site to function cannot be disabled.

We use commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information. No system is perfectly secure; please notify us at privacy@teslaemblems.com if you suspect a security issue.

To exercise these rights, use the same contact in § 2. We will apply the comparable state process.
