CCPA is the first state law in the country to mandate the posting of a privacy policy on commercial websites and online services. The law's reach extends well beyond California, requiring anyone or any organization operating websites in the United States (or perhaps the entire world) that collect personally identifiable information from California consumers to post a clear privacy policy on their website, adhere to it, and disclose exactly what information is being collected and with whom it will be shared.
According to CCPA, we agree to the following:
Access to our website is open to anonymous users.

The phrase "Privacy" appears in our Privacy Policy link, which is prominently displayed on the page mentioned above.

In order to be in line with the Fair Information Practices Principles, we will take the following responsive action should a data breach occur:

This concept mandates that people have recourse to courts or government entities to investigate and/or prosecute non-compliance by data processors, in addition to having enforceable rights against data users.

A ‘cookie’ is a bit of information that a website sends to your web browser that helps the website remember information about you and your preferences.
‘Session’ cookies are temporary bits of information that are used to improve navigation, block visitors from providing information that is inappropriate (the website ‘remembers’ previous entries of age or country of origin that were outside the specified parameters and blocks subsequent changes), and collect aggregate statistical information on the website. They are erased once you exit your web browser or otherwise turn off your computer.

We usually store cookies on your computer during the registration process for you to resume where you left off, remembering your registered login, preferences, and other customization functions.
