CCPA Compliance
LibPA is committed to respecting your rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and its amendment, the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA). This page explains how these laws apply to your interaction with our website and how you can exercise your rights.
Scope and Applicability
The CCPA/CPRA applies to California residents. While LibPA does not collect personal information through user registration or accounts, we may automatically collect certain data through cookies, web beacons, and analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics) to understand how visitors use our content. This includes IP addresses, browser types, device identifiers, and browsing behavior.
Your Rights Under CCPA/CPRA
As a California resident, you have the following rights:
- Right to Know: You can request details about the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you in the past 12 months.
- Right to Delete: You can request deletion of your personal information, subject to certain legal exceptions.
- Right to Opt-Out of Sale or Sharing: You have the right to opt-out of the sale or sharing of your personal information. While we do not sell personal information for monetary compensation, we may allow third-party analytics providers to collect data for advertising purposes, which may constitute "sharing" under CPRA.
- Right to Non-Discrimination: You will not be denied services, charged different prices, or receive a different level of service for exercising your CCPA/CPRA rights.
- Right to Authorize an Agent: You may designate an authorized agent to make requests on your behalf. We may require proof of authorization before processing such requests.
How We Comply
LibPA does not maintain a user database or collect personally identifiable information through forms or accounts. Our data collection is limited to anonymized, aggregated analytics data used solely to improve site performance and content relevance. We do not target advertising based on individual behavior, nor do we sell personal information. We honor opt-out signals from browsers and respect Do Not Track preferences.
Data We Process
Under CCPA/CPRA, the following categories of personal information may be collected:
- Internet or other electronic network activity information (e.g., pages visited, time spent, clicks)
- Device identifiers and IP addresses
- Geolocation data (approximate, based on IP)
- Usage patterns and interaction data with our content
Legal Basis for Processing
We rely on legitimate interest to process this limited data for website functionality, analytics, and improving user experience. No personal information is collected for targeted advertising or profiling.
