For fundraising purposes, WWF shares Personal Information, including name and mailing address, on a limited basis with other organizations via list exchanges, and in return receives personal information from those other organizations. Sharing personal information in this manner is characterized as the “sale” of personal information under Applicable Privacy Laws. You have the right under Applicable Privacy Laws to opt out of the selling of your Personal Information, and may submit requests to opt out as noted above.

WWF uses Personal Information collected via Cookies, as described in the Privacy Policy, for the purposes of targeted advertising. Consumers have the right to opt out of targeted advertising, and may submit requests or adjust their cookie settings to opt out as noted above.

We also process opt-out preference signals, such as the Global Privacy Control. These signals set your opt-out preferences only for the particular browser or device you are using. For information about how to use the Global Privacy Control, please visit https://globalprivacycontrol.org/.

If an agent would like to make a request on your behalf as permitted under applicable law, the agent may use the submission methods noted in the section above entitled “Rights and Requests.” We will process the agent’s request consistent with applicable law. As part of our verification process, we may request that the agent provide, as applicable, proof concerning their status as an authorized agent. In addition, we may require that you verify your identity as described in the section above entitled “Rights and Requests” or confirm that you provided the agent permission to submit the request.

De-Identified Information

Where we collect information from you that cannot reasonably be used to infer information about, or otherwise be linked to, you, or a device linked to you (“de-identified information”), we will continue to maintain and use the de-identified information only in a de-identified fashion and will not attempt to re-identify the information.
