COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)
When it comes to the collection of personal information from children under the age of 13, 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.
California Online Privacy Protection Act
CalOPPA is the first state law in the nation to require online services and commercial websites 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: http://consumercal.org/california-online-privacy-protection-act-caloppa/. According to CalOPPA, we agree to the following:
- Users can visit our site anonymously.
- Our Privacy Policy link includes the word ‘Privacy’ and can easily be found on all pages of our site.
- You will be notified of any Privacy Policy changes on this page.

CAN SPAM Act
The CAN-SPAM Act is a law that sets the rules for commercial email, gives recipients the right to have emails stopped from being sent, and spells out penalties for violations. We do not collect your email information when you contact us, therefore we do not use that information for anything other than a follow-up reply.
