Privacy Policy
Internetpress is a company located in California, USA, so it has to comply with city, county, state, and federal laws. One of those laws is Title 1.81.5 the “California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) of 2018.” It regulates how businesses in California must handle everybody’s personal information. A synopsis of the act is published by the California Attorney General’s Office, and the entire act is published by the California government at their Legislative Information website as Section 1798.100 of the California Civil Code.
Internetpress does not have to comply with that law because 1) it excludes businesses whose gross revenues are less that twenty-five million dollars ($25,000,000), 2) it excludes businesses who do not annually buy, receive, sell, or share for commercial purposes the personal information of 50,000 or more consumers, and finally, 3) it excludes businesses who do not derive 50 percent or more of their annual revenues from selling consumer’s personal information.
As a business we do have to collect some personal information when you purchase a product from Internetpress, otherwise a purchase will not be able to be made. For example, your name and address must be collected in order to ship the product you purchase.
Internetpress uses PayPal for handling purchasing transactions. The only information we get from PayPal is your name, the address you provide PayPal for shipping, what you had purchased, and the time and date when the purchase was made. PayPal does not provide Internetpress with the credit card number which you use for making a purchase, nor do they provide any type of banking account numbers which you may have used to make the purchase.
One last matter about our privacy policy is about a thing called a Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) Cookie. A cookie is an electronic file of very small size that contains information about something. They are basically small pieces of text sent to your browser by a website. They are basically categorized into essential and non-essential cookies.
When you make a purchase from Internetpress, the purchase is handled by PayPal, and they have to put one or more cookies on the purchaser’s computer in order to authenticate and manage the purchase. That is an essential type of cookie, and those cookies are placed on your computer by PayPal.
When you visit Internetpress, we also load cookies on to your computer which come from Google. Those Google cookies only tell Internetpress about where in the world you are located and which pages at Internetpress you have visited. Those cookies do not provide us with any personal information. For example, they do not tell us your street address, and they do not tell us your name. Those cookies will tell us which city and country your browser is located and which pages at Internetpress you have visited.
Cookies help Internetpress remember information about your visit, which can both make it easier to visit our site again and make the site more useful to you. Other technologies, including unique identifiers used to identify a browser, app or device, pixels, and local storage, can also be used for these purposes. Cookies and other technologies as described by this page can be used for the purposes described below.
Types of Google Cookies used by Internetpress
Some or all of the cookies or other technologies described below may be stored in your browser, app, or device. To manage how cookies are used, including rejecting the use of certain cookies, you can manage cookies in your browser (though browsers for mobile devices may not offer this visibility). Other technologies used to identify apps and devices may be managed in your device settings or in an app’s settings.
Analytics
Some cookies and other technologies help Internetpress understand how our visitors engage with our services. For example, we use Google Analytics cookies to collect information and report site usage statistics without personally identifying individual visitors to Internetpress. ‘_ga’, the main cookie used by Google Analytics, enables Internetpress to distinguish one visitor from another and lasts for 2 years. Each ‘_ga’ cookie is unique to the specific property, so it cannot be used to track a given user or browser across unrelated websites.
Managing Cookies in Your Browser
Most browsers allow you to manage how cookies are set and used as you’re browsing, and to clear cookies and browsing data. Also, your browser may have settings letting you manage cookies on a site-by-site basis. For example, Google Chrome’s settings at chrome://settings/cookies allow you to delete existing cookies, allow or block all cookies, and set cookie preferences for websites. Most browsers also offer Incognito mode, which deletes your browsing history and clears cookies on your device after you close your Incognito windows.
