California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA)
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.
You can learn more about CalOPPA <a href="https://consumercal.org/about-cfc/cfc-education-foundation/california-online-privacy-protection-act-caloppa-3/">here</a>
According to CalOPPA, we agree to the following:
-
Users can visit our site anonymously.
-
We will link to our privacy policy on our homepage.
-
Our privacy policy link will include the word ‘Privacy’ and be easily found on the homepage.
-
Users will be notified of any privacy policy changes on our privacy policy page.
-
Users are able to change their personal information by emailing or calling us.
-
Children Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA)
-
When it comes to the collection of personal information from children under 13, 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 comply, and 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 our users via email within 7 business days.
-
We will notify our users via in-site notification 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 government agencies to investigate or prosecute non-compliance by data processors.
