The customers right to be safe, informed, choose, and give input to the producers of the goods and services they use. This leads to proper procedures that make transactions smooth and beneficial to both the seller and the buyer.
As a consumer you have some automatic protections when you buy new goods from traders and when you buy services. Whatever you buy should be:
of reasonable quality and free from defectsthe same as it has been described to you or the same as any sample you were shownfit for the purpose which it is intended for.
Traders break the law if they use misleading or deceptive practices. This can include:
misleading advertising eg advertising something which is not available for sale or not available at the advertised pricemisleading representations about goods such as telling a customer that a particular item has some quality which it does notgiving the impression that goods are made by a particular manufacturer or in a particular country when they are not.

A privacy policy is a statement or a legal document (in privacy law) that discloses some or all of the ways a party gathers, uses, discloses, and manages a customer or client's data. It fulfills a legal requirement to protect a customer or client's privacy. Personal information can be anything that can be used to identify an individual, not limited to the person's name, address, date of birth, marital status, contact information, ID issue, and expiry date, financial records, credit information, medical history, where one travels, and intentions to acquire goods and services.[1] In the case of a business it is often a statement that declares a party's policy on how it collects, stores, and releases personal information it collects. It informs the client what specific information is collected, and whether it is kept confidential, shared with partners, or sold to other firms or enterprises.[2] Privacy policies typically represent a broader, more generalized treatment, as opposed to data use statements, which tend to be more detailed and specific.
The exact contents of a certain privacy policy will depend upon the applicable law and may need to address requirements across geographical boundaries and legal jurisdictions. Most countries have their own legislation and guidelines of who is covered, what information can be collected, and what it can be used for. In general, data protection laws in Europe cover the private sector as well as the public sector. Their privacy laws apply not only to government operations but also to private enterprises and commercial transactions.[3]
California Business and Professions Code, Internet Privacy Requirements (CalOPPA) mandate that websites collecting Personally Identifiable Information (PII) from California residents must conspicuously post their privacy policy.[4] (See also Online Privacy Protection Act)
