California Online Privacy Protection Act

CalOPPA is the first state law in the nation to require commercial websites and online services to post a privacy policy. The law's reach stretches well beyond California to require a 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 stating exactly the information being collected and those individuals with whom it is being shared, and to comply with this policy. - See more at: http://consumercal.org/california-online-privacy-protection-act-caloppa/#sthash.0FdRbT51.dpuf

According to CalOPPA we agree to the following:

Users can visit our Website anonymously.

Once this privacy policy is created, we will add a link to it on our home page or as a minimum on the first significant page after entering our website.

Our Privacy Policy link includes the word 'Privacy' and can be easily be found on the page specified above.

Users will be notified of any privacy policy changes on our Privacy Policy Page.

Users are able to change their personal information by emailing us.

Does our site allow third-party behavioral tracking?

COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)

Children as young as 9 years old are eligible to participate in cycling events produced by xXx Racing; accordingly, these users are welcome on our Website. Occasionally, we operate events specifically targeted towards children (e.g. Illinois Junior Track Championship Race, specific skills clinics, etc.). Although children may browse information or register for events through our Website, xXx Racing and USA Cycling require a parent or guardian signature prior to participation in any xXx Racing managed event.

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 the users via email as soon as is practical, following an in-depth investigation of the breach and its impact. This notification may be delayed due to consultation with appropriate authorities, partners, etc.
