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.
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,

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.
