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:

According to CalOPPA, we agree to the following:
• On our Privacy Policy Page
COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)
When it
comes to the collection of personal information from children under the age of
13 years old, the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) puts parents
in control. The Federal Trade Commission, United States' 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.
Do we let
third-parties, including ad networks or plug-ins collect PII from 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.
