The policy must specify what information is being collected and with whom it is being shared. – See more at: http://consumercal.org/california-online-privacy-protection-act-caloppa/#sthash.0FdRbT51.dpuf

Principles of Fair Information Practices
The Fair Information Practices Principles are foundational to privacy law in the United States, and their concepts have been instrumental in shaping data protection laws worldwide. Understanding these principles and their proper implementation is essential for complying with the various privacy laws that safeguard personal information.
To align with Fair Information Practices, we will take the following actions in response to a data breach:
Within 7 business days, we will notify users via in-site notification.
Within 7 business days, we also uphold the Individual Redress Principle, which ensures individuals have the right to pursue legal action against data collectors and processors who fail to comply with the law. This principle guarantees that individuals not only have enforceable rights against data users but also have access to courts or government agencies to investigate and take action against non-compliance by data processors.
