Delta iOS App Sued For Not Having Privacy Policy
Delta is being sued by the state of California for not having a privacy policy stated in the app’s Terms of Service. Delta’s app is facing up to a $2,500 fine for each download.
From California:
The California Online Privacy Protection Act requires commercial operators of websites and online services, including mobile and social apps, which collect personally identifiable information from Californians to conspicuously post a privacy policy. Privacy policies are an important safeguard for consumers. Privacy policies promote transparency in how companies collect, use, and share personal information. If developers do not comply with their stated privacy policies, they can be prosecuted under California’s Unfair Competition Law and/or False Advertising Law.
