Protection Rights under the California Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA)
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 conceivable 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 with whom
it is being shared, and to comply with this policy.

site anonymously;

link includes the word “Privacy”, and can easily be found on the home page of
our website;

notified of any privacy policy changes on our Privacy Policy Page;

You can enable or disable
Do Not Track by visiting the Preferences or Settings page of your web browser.

companies, without monetary consideration may be considered a “sale” under
California law. You are the only owner of your Personal Data and can request
disclosure or deletion at any time.
If you submit a request to
stop selling your personal information, we will stop making such transfers.
Please note, if you ask us
to delete or stop selling your data, it may impact your experience with us, and
