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 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.
