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,
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.
CAN SPAM Act
The CAN-SPAM Act is a law that sets the rules for commercial email, establishes
