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. We do not specifically market to children under the age of
13 years old.
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 you via email Within 7 business days
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.
