privacy law advocate l.d.a.

Part of protecting your identity is by knowing your rights regarding the information you give to others. Businesses who collect information on behave of their customers living in California, such as credit card applications and internet memberships, have obligations to you the customer to preserve your privacy. It is not only important that you know your rights but that you take quick action  to communicate to the company your privacy needs.

Senate Bill 1386  (SB1386) was introduced by Senator Peace  in July 2003. Since  being established into law SB1386 has established a right to privacy of information gathered by businesses in California and  has obligated companies to notify customers of a breach of that privacy. This privacy include geographic identifiers such as home and work addresses, numeric identifiers such as Social Security, credit card accounts, PIN and license numbers, personal identifiers such as names, login, validation (mother’s maiden name) and hint phases.
