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:

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.
Do we 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 you via email
•
Within 1 business day
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.
