CCPA Compliance

Virtual Coin Directory (ViCoDi) 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 our informational website and how you can exercise your rights.

Scope and Applicability

The CCPA/CPRA applies to California residents. While ViCoDi does not collect personal information through user registration or accounts, we may automatically gather certain data through standard website operations such as web analytics, cookies, and server logs. This includes IP addresses, browser types, device identifiers, and usage patterns. These data are used solely for site functionality, traffic analysis, and improving user experience.

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 may request the deletion of your personal information collected by ViCoDi, subject to certain legal exceptions.
• Right to Opt-Out of Sale or Sharing: We do not sell or share your personal information for targeted advertising. However, you may still exercise this right to confirm our practices.
• 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 your identity and the agent’s authority to act on your behalf.

How We Comply

ViCoDi does not maintain a user database, store personally identifiable information, or require accounts. We use third-party analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics) that operate under their own privacy policies. We do not engage in the sale or sharing of personal information as defined under CCPA/CPRA. All data collected is aggregated and anonymized where possible.

Data We Process

Under CCPA/CPRA, the personal information we may process includes:

• IP addresses
• Browser and device identifiers
• Pages visited and time spent on site
• Referral sources
• Cookie identifiers

This data is not linked to your name, email, or other direct identifiers unless voluntarily provided via contact forms.

Legal Basis for Processing

Our processing of personal information is based on legitimate interest in providing an informative, functional, and secure website experience. We do not rely on consent for these activities under CCPA/CPRA, as they are not considered "sales" or "sharing" under the law.

How to Exercise Your Rights

To exercise your CCPA/CPRA rights, please contact us via email at [email protected]. In your message, please include:

1. Your full name
2. Your California residency status
3. The specific right you wish to exercise
4. Any supporting details (e.g., approximate date of visit, device used)

We may request additional verification to confirm your identity and prevent fraudulent requests.

Response Timeframes

We will acknowledge your request within 10 business days and respond fully within 45 calendar days. If more time is needed, we will notify you and explain the reason for the delay. We may extend the response period by an additional 45 days if reasonably necessary.

No Discrimination Policy

ViCoDi will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights under the CCPA/CPRA. You will not be denied access to our content, charged different fees, or receive a lower quality of service because you chose to exercise your privacy rights.

We may update this CCPA Compliance page periodically to reflect changes in law or our practices. Any material changes will be posted here with an updated "Last Updated" date.
