IP addresses are automatically collected by our Site, as part of demographic and profile data (known as “traffic data”), so that such data (such as the Web pages that you request through our Site) can be sent to you. We also use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer the Site.

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: http://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.  
    • Once this privacy policy is created, we will add a link to it on our home page or as a minimum, on the first significant page after entering our website.  
    • Our Privacy Policy link includes the word ‘Privacy’ and can easily be found on the page specified above. 
    • You will be notified of any Privacy Policy changes: On our Privacy Policy Page 
  • Can change your personal information: By emailing us or by logging into your account should we provide that feature. 
  • We honor Do Not Track signals and Do Not Track, plant cookies, or use advertising when a Do Not Track (DNT) browser mechanism is in place. 

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. 

To be in line with Fair Information Practices we will notify you via email within 7 business days should a data breach occur. 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 requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the right to have emails stopped from being sent to them, and spells out tough penalties for violations. 

We collect your email address in order to: 

  • Send information, respond to inquiries, and/or other requests or questions 

To be in accordance with CANSPAM, we agree to the following: 

    • Not use false or misleading subjects or email addresses. 
    • Identify the message as an advertisement in some reasonable way. 
    • Include the physical address of our business or site headquarters. 
    • Monitor third-party email marketing services for compliance, if one is used. 
  • Honor opt-out/unsubscribe requests quickly. 
  • Allow users to unsubscribe by using the link at the bottom of each email.
