Your Privacy Choices – Targeted Advertising & Right to Opt Out
Your Privacy Choices
You decide what we know & how we use it
At The Pet Society, your privacy is not a checkbox at the bottom of a long page — it's a foundation. Under the GDPR (Regulation EU 2016/679) and the French Loi Informatique et Libertés, you have a set of clear, enforceable rights over the personal data we hold about you.
This page explains what those rights are, how to exercise them, and how to manage your tracking and marketing preferences directly.
Cookies and similar trackers fall into two categories on our site:
- —Strictly necessary: required to operate the site (cart, checkout, security). These cannot be disabled.
- —Optional: analytics, advertising, personalisation. You decide.
Use the cookie banner that appears at the bottom of any page, or click manage cookie preferences to update your choices at any time.
If you do not want us to use your data for personalised advertising — including audience targeting on platforms like Meta (Facebook, Instagram), Google, and TikTok — you can opt out by:
- —declining marketing & advertising cookies via the banner
- —using the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal in your browser — we honour it automatically
- —writing to us at hello@thepetsociety.paris with the subject line OPT-OUT
Under EU data protection law, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:
To exercise any of the rights above, contact us at hello@thepetsociety.paris with the subject line PRIVACY REQUEST. We will respond within 30 days as required by Article 12 GDPR. To protect your data, we may ask for proof of identity before processing the request.
If you believe we are not handling your data properly, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the French Data Protection Authority: CNIL — www.cnil.fr.
For full details on what data we collect, why, and how long we keep it, please consult our Privacy Policy.
