California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA)<\/strong><\/p>CalOPPA is the first state law in the United States to require commercial websites and online services to post a privacy policy. The law\u2019s 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. The privacy policy must state exactly the information being collected and those individuals or companies with whom it is being shared.<\/p>

Fair Information Practices<\/strong><\/p>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 world.
