We do not use automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects concerning consumers.
Section 03
Sharing and Disclosure

No sale; no sharing for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not sell personal information, and we do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising as those terms are defined under California law.
Section 04
California Privacy Rights
If you are a California resident, the CCPA and CPRA give you the following rights with respect to your personal information. Each right is described briefly below; instructions for exercising them are in the next section.
Right to Know
You may request that we disclose the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, the categories of sources, the business or commercial purpose of collection, and the categories of third parties with whom we share the information.
Right to Delete
You may request that we delete personal information we have collected from you, subject to the exceptions set out in California law (for example, records of a transaction that we are required to retain).
Right to Correct
You may request that we correct inaccurate personal information we maintain about you, taking into account the nature of the information and the purposes of processing.
Right to Opt-Out of Sale or Sharing
You may direct us not to sell or share your personal information. We do not sell or share personal information, so this right is effectively always honored; you can still contact us to confirm.
Right to Limit Use of Sensitive Personal Information
If we use sensitive personal information for purposes other than those permitted under California law (for example, to infer characteristics about you), you may direct us to limit that use. We do not currently use sensitive personal information outside the permitted purposes.
Right to Non-Discrimination
We will not deny service, charge a different price, or provide a different level or quality of service because you have exercised any of these rights.
Right to Data Portability
You may request a copy of your personal information in a portable, readily usable format where applicable.
Section 05
Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information
California residents have the right to direct a business not to sell or share their personal information. As noted in Section 3, Centermark Consultingdoes not sell personal information and does not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. Accordingly, this site does not require a “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” toggle — if you would like written confirmation, contact us at the address listed in Section 9.

For verification, we may ask you to confirm information we already maintain (such as your email address) so that we can match your request to our records. An authorized agent may submit a request on your behalf in accordance with California law.
Section 07
Cookies and Tracking
We use a small number of cookies and similar technologies to operate this site and understand how visitors use it. Categories include:
- Strictly necessary — required for the site to function (for example, to submit the contact form).
- Analytics — aggregated and de-identified usage data to understand which content is most useful.
You can review and change your cookie preferences at any time using the Cookie Preferences control in the footer of this site. Browser-level controls (Do Not Track, Global Privacy Control, and equivalent browser signals) are honored where technically feasible.
Section 08
Data Security and Retention
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. No system is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We retain personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy (for example, to respond to ongoing communications or to comply with recordkeeping, tax, or legal obligations), and then we delete or de-identify it. Specific retention periods vary by category and are documented in our internal records schedule.
Section 09
Children's Privacy
This website is not directed to children under the age of thirteen (13), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. California residents under sixteen (16) have the right to opt in to (or, in the case of minors under 13, have a parent or guardian opt in to) any sale or sharing of their personal information; because we do not sell or share personal information, this opt-in is not currently exercised on the site.
If you believe we have collected information from a child in violation of this policy, contact us at the email below and we will promptly delete it.
Section 10
