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 precisely the data being collected and those individuals with whom it is being shared, and complying with this policy. – See more at https://consumercal.org/california-online-privacy-protection-act-caloppa/#sthash.0FdRbT51.dpuf
ACCORDING TO CALOPPA, WE AGREE TO THE FOLLOWING:
Users can visit our site anonymously.
Upon creating this privacy policy, we will link it on our home page or the first significant page after entering our website.
Our Privacy Policy link includes the word ‘Privacy’ and can be found easily on the abovementioned page.

COPPA (CHILDREN ONLINE PRIVACY PROTECTION ACT)
When collecting 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 complying with the various privacy laws that protect personal information.
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 seven business days
- We will notify the users via in-site notification
- Within seven business days
We also agree with 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 that individuals have enforceable rights against data users and recourse to courts or a government agency 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 requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the right to have emails stopped from being sent to them, and spells out tough penalties for violations.

- Process orders and send information and updates about orders
- We may also send you additional information about your product and/or service.
