6. Jurisdictional rights
Certain jurisdictions have specific legal requirements and grant privacy rights with respect to personal information, and we will comply with the restrictions and any requests you submit as required by applicable law. Please be aware that these rights are not absolute, may apply only in certain circumstances and, in certain cases, we may decline your request as permitted by law. If you are seeking to exercise your rights under a law of a specific jurisdiction, please contact us at info@smartarchesdental.com.
Depending on where you live, you may have certain rights related to your personal information. These rights may include the below. Please be aware that these rights are not absolute and may apply only in certain circumstances. In certain cases, we may decline your request as permitted by law. If you are a resident of Maryland or New Jersey, you have specific rights under the Maryland Online Data Privacy Act (MODPA) and New Jersey Data Privacy Act (NJDPA).

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity. This is a security measure to ensure that personal information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. When you make a request, we may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response and require you to follow procedures so that we can verify your identity (and the applicable jurisdiction). The verification steps we take may differ depending on your jurisdiction and the request. Where possible, we will attempt to match the information that you provide in your request to information we already have on file to verify your identity. If we are able to verify your request, we will process it. If we cannot verify your request, we may ask you for additional information to help us do so.
We will respond to your request within the time period required by applicable law. However, we may not always be able or required to comply with your request, in whole or in part, and we will notify you in that event. If we decline to take action regarding your request, we will inform you of our decision and reasoning behind it.
7. Do we collect information from minors?
When it comes to the collection of personal information from children under the age of 13 years old, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) puts parents in control. The Federal Trade Commission, United States’ consumer protection agency, enforces the COPPA Rule, which spells out what operators of websites and online services must do to protect children’s privacy and safety online.
We do not specifically market to children under the age of 18 years old.
8. California online privacy protection act
CalOPPA is the first state law in the nation to require commercial websites and online services 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 the California Consumer website. According to CalOPPA, we agree to the following: Users can visit our site anonymously. Once this privacy policy is created, we will add a link to it on our home page or at a minimum, on the first significant page after entering our website. Our Privacy Policy link includes the word ‘Privacy’ and can easily be found on the page specified above. You will be notified of any Privacy Policy changes on our Privacy Policy Page. You can change your personal information at any time by emailing us at info@smartarchesdental.com.
9. CAN-SPAM
The CAN-SPAM Act is a law that sets the rules for commercial email, establishes requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the right to have emails stopped being sent to them, and spells out tough penalties for violations.
We collect your email address in order to:
- Send information, respond to inquiries, and/or other requests or questions.
- Send you additional information related to your product and/or service.
