Privacy Policy

Last policy update 12/28/2021
Last website compliance check 01/2023

This privacy statement has been compiled to better serve those who are concerned with how their ‘Personally Identifiable Information’ (PII) is being used online. PII, as described in US privacy law and information security, is information that can be used on its own or with other information to identify, contact, or locate a single person, or to identify an individual in context. Please read our privacy policy carefully to get a clear understanding of how we collect, use, protect or otherwise handle your Personally Identifiable Information in accordance with our website.

We only collect information from you when you subscribe to a newsletter (your email address only) and when you register for the Solano Avenue Stroll.

With the exception of the Solano Avenue Stroll marketing program provider and SAA Membership [only] mailing label availability – We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your Personally Identifiable Information without your expressed permission and would require those parties to keep any information confidential.

How do we protect your information? Our website is scanned and updated on a regular basis for security holes and known vulnerabilities. In order to make your visit to our site as safe as possible, we utilize standard “WordPress” measures and state of the art plug-ins available to us and perform malware scanning with our incoming and outgoing emails.

Do we use ‘cookies’? No.  The Solano Avenue Association does not employ the use of cookies of any kind unless there is a completed financial transaction.

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 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 stating exactly the information being collected and those individuals or companies with whom it is being shared.

According to CalOPPA, we agree to the following:
a) Users can visit our site anonymously. b) 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. c) Our Privacy Policy link includes the word ‘Privacy’ and can easily be found on the page specified above. You will be notified of any Privacy Policy changes on our Privacy Policy Page.

How does our site handle Do Not Track signals?
We honor Do Not Track signals and do not track, plant cookies, or use advertising when a Do Not Track (DNT) browser mechanism is in place.

Does our site allow third-party behavioral tracking?
No.

COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act):
When it comes to the collection of personal information from children under the age of 13 years old, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) puts parents in control. The Federal Trade Commission, United States’ consumer protection agency, enforces the COPPA Rule, which spells out what operators of websites and online services must do to protect children’s privacy and safety online. We do not specifically market to children under the age of 13 years old.

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 (but is not applicable to our website).

CAN SPAM Act:
The CAN-SPAM Act is a law that sets the rules for commercial email, establishes requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the right to have emails stopped from being sent to them, and spells out tough penalties for violations. To be in accordance with CANSPAM, we agree to the following:

If at any time you would like to unsubscribe from receiving future emails, you can contact us and we will promptly remove you from ALL correspondence. Our emails also contain an “unsubscribe link” at the bottom of every [outgoing] communication.
