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.
In order to be in line with Fair Information Practices we will take
the following
responsive action, should a data breach occur:
We will notify you via email
• Within 7 business days
We also agree to the Individual Redress Principle which requires that
individuals
have
the right to legally pursue enforceable rights against data collectors and processors who fail
to adhere 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 government agencies to investigate and/or prosecute
non-compliance by
data processors.
