The question appears to lack sufficient definition. First of all, why would your employer have any rights to your website? Absent a prior agreement/contract and/or performing website work on your employer's time, I see no basis. Of course you have no right to publish any confidential info or materials that may be copyrighted by your employer (absent express permission). Secondly, apart from any issue of legal rights, I assume you would not want to antagonize your employer. Is this the more concerning issue? Third, California's laws protect what employees do using their own resources and on their own time. You're welcome to get in touch or post further. Based on your posting, an initial question would be the basis and undercurrents relating to your concerns.
