California Online Privacy Protection Act
CalOPPA requires commercial websites 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. See more at: http://consumercal.org/california-online-privacy-protection-act-caloppa/#sthash.0FdRbT51.dpuf.
According to CalOPPA, when applicable, Aviv agrees to the following:
Once this Privacy Policy is created, we will make it accessible to you.
A Privacy Policy link will be noticeable, as it will conspicuously include the word “Privacy”.
You can request to change your Personal Information by emailing us at: [email protected].

Data Security
We deploy industry standard measures to ensure the security, confidentiality, integrity and availability of the Personal Information we process. We maintain physical, technical and administrative safeguards, and test and update these periodically. We endeavor to restrict access to Personal Information on a ‘need to know’ basis for the provision of Website and Services to you. No such measures are perfect or impenetrable. In the event of a security breach, we will take all reasonable action to minimize any harm. Although we will do our best to protect Personal Information, we cannot guarantee the security of data transmitted to our Website and transmission is at the users own risk.

Generally, Aviv does not retain information longer than necessary to provide its Services and for its reasonable business and lawful needs.
