They also help us understand your preferences based on your past or current site activity, which allows us to provide better services. We also use cookies to gather general data about site traffic and interactions so we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future.

We use cookies to:

  • Understand and save your preferences for future visits.

California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA)

CalOPPA is the first state law in the U.S. that requires commercial websites and online services to post a privacy policy. This law applies beyond California, requiring any person or company in the United States (and possibly worldwide) that collects Personally Identifiable Information from California consumers to clearly post a privacy policy on their website. This policy must state exactly what information is being collected and with whom it is being shared.

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, at a minimum, on the first significant page after entering our website.
  • Our Privacy Policy link includes the word 'Privacy' and can be easily found on the page mentioned above.

You will be notified of any Privacy Policy changes: On our Privacy Policy Page

You can change your personal information: By emailing us

How does our site handle Do Not Track signals?

We honor Do Not Track (DNT) signals. This means we do not track, plant cookies, or use advertising when a DNT browser mechanism is in place.

Does our site allow third-party behavioral tracking?

It's also important to note that we do allow third-party behavioral tracking.

COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)

When it comes to collecting personal information from children under 13, the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) puts parents in control. The Federal Trade Commission, the U.S. consumer protection agency, enforces the COPPA Rule, which outlines 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. We do not allow third-parties, including ad networks or plug-ins, to collect PII from children under 13.

Fair Information Practices

The Fair Information Practices Principles are fundamental to privacy law in the United States and have significantly influenced data protection laws globally. Understanding these principles and how to apply them is crucial for complying with various privacy laws that protect personal information.

To align with Fair Information Practices, we will take the following actions if a data breach occurs:

  • We will notify you via email within 7 business days.
  • We will notify users via in-site notification within 7 business days.

We also agree to the Individual Redress Principle, which means individuals have the right to legally pursue enforceable rights against data collectors and processors who do not follow the law. This principle requires not only that individuals have enforceable rights against data users, but also that individuals can go to courts or government agencies to investigate and/or prosecute non-compliance by data processors.
