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 a 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 with whom it is being shared, and to comply
with this policy. - 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

Our Privacy Policy link includes the word 'Privacy', and can
be easily be found on the page specified above.
Users will be notified of any privacy policy changes:
• Via Email
Users are able to change their personal information:

It's also important to note that we do not allow third party

COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)
When it comes to the collection of personal information from
children under 13, the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) puts
parents in control. The Federal Trade Commission, the nation's 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 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 email
• Within 7
business days
We also agree to the individual redress principle, which
requires that individuals have a right to pursue legally 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 a government
agency 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.

To be in accordance with CANSPAM we agree to the following:
