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

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 will notify the users via in site notification
• Within 1
business day
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.
