California Online Privacy Protection Act
CalOPPA is the first state law in the nation to require
commercial websites and online services to post a privacy policy. The
law's reach stretches well beyond California to require any person or
company in the United States (and conceivably the world) that operates
websites collecting Personally Identifiable Information from California
consumers to post a conspicuous privacy policy on its website stating
exactly the information being collected and those individuals or
companies with whom it is being shared. - See more at:
http://consumercal.org/california-online-privacy-protection-act-caloppa/#sthash.0FdRbT51.dpuf
According to CalOPPA, we agree to the
following:
Users can visit our site anonymously. Once this privacy
policy is created, we will add a link to it on our home page or as a
minimum, on the first significant page after entering our website. Our
Privacy Policy link includes the word 'Privacy' and can easily be found
on the page specified above.
You will be notified of any Privacy Policy changes on our Privacy Policy
Page. You can change your personal information by emailing us.
How does our site handle Do Not Track
signals?
We honor Do Not Track signals and Do Not Track, plant
cookies, or use advertising when a Do Not Track (DNT) browser mechanism
is in place.
Does our site allow third-party behavioral
tracking?
It's also important to note that we allow third-party
behavioral tracking.
COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)
When it comes to the collection of personal information
from children under the age of 13 years old, the Children's Online
Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) puts parents in control. The Federal
Trade Commission, United States' consumer protection agency, enforces
the COPPA Rule, which spells out what operators of websites and online
services must do to protect children's privacy and safety online.
We do not specifically market to children under the age of 13 years old.
We do not unknowingly let third-parties, including ad networks or
plug-ins, collect PII from children under 13.
Fair Information Practices
The Fair Information Practices Principles form the
backbone of privacy law in the United States and the concepts they
include have played a significant role in the development of data
protection laws around the globe. Understanding the Fair Information
Practice Principles and how they should be implemented is critical to
comply with the various privacy laws that protect personal information.
In order to be in line with Fair Information
Practices we will take the following responsive action, should a data
breach occur:
We will notify the users via in-site notification
• Within 7 business days
We also agree to the Individual Redress Principle which requires that
individuals have the right to legally pursue enforceable rights against
data collectors and processors who fail to adhere to the law. This
principle requires not only that individuals have enforceable rights
against data users, but also that individuals have recourse to courts or
government agencies to investigate and/or prosecute non-compliance by
data processors.
