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:

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

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.
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 you via email • Within
7 business days
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.
CAN SPAM Act
The CAN-SPAM Act is a law that sets the rules for commercial email, establishes
requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the right to have emails
stopped from being sent to them, and spells out tough penalties for violations.
