California Online Privacy Protection Act

CalOPPA is the first state law in the USA 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 personal 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:

• Users can visit our site anonymously.
• This Privacy Policy may be changed, edited, adjusted accordingly to the company needs at its sole discretion. In case of any change in the existing Privacy Policy, a notification message will be issued to all identified users of the Services.
• You may request a change in your personal information submitting a proper request to [email protected]
• COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)
• We do not knowingly collect personal data from minors under 16 years of age. If you are a parent or legal guardian and become aware that your child has provided personal data to us, without your consent, you can contact us at [email protected] and request that we delete any unauthorized information provided by your child.
• We do not specifically market to children under the age of 16 years old.
• 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.
