If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at support@petnesthome.com so we can review and take appropriate action.

Global Privacy Control & Do Not Track
Some browsers and privacy tools may send privacy preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control. Where required by applicable law and where we are able to recognize and process the signal, we will treat it as a request to opt out of applicable sale, sharing, or targeted advertising activities for that browser or device.
Other than legally required privacy preference signals, we may not respond to all “Do Not Track” signals because there is not a single consistent industry standard for how such signals should be interpreted.
International Transfers
PetNest Home may process, store, and transfer personal information outside your country of residence, including to the United States or other locations where our service providers operate.
Where required by applicable law, we rely on appropriate transfer mechanisms, contractual protections, service provider safeguards, or other legally recognized methods to protect personal information transferred internationally.

If you have concerns about how we handle your personal information, please contact us first so we can review and respond to your concern.
Depending on where you live, you may also have the right to contact a local data protection authority or other privacy regulator.
