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 with whom it is being shared, and to comply with this policy. - See more at:

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.

responsive action, should a data breach occur:

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 a government agency to investigate and/or prosecute
non-compliance by data processors.
