Protecting Children’s Privacy
The US Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) requires us to inform parents or legal guardians about how we collect, use, and disclose personal data from children under the age of 13. COPPA also requires that we get consent from parents or legal guardians before we allow children under the age of 13 to use and interact with our Apps and Website. We offer users a number of activities, some of which are directed at children under the age of 13, and other activities that are targeted for older users.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) requires us to inform parents or legal guardians about how we collect, use, and disclose personal data from children under the age of 16 in some member countries of the European Union. The GDPR also requires that we get consent from parents or legal guardians before we allow children to use and interact with our Apps and Website.
We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under the age that requires parental consent (e.g., in the US – 13, in the EU – 16). If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child is using Toodlers without your consent, please contact us. Before we remove any information, we may ask for proof of identification to prevent malicious removal of information. If we discover that a child is accessing Toodlers without parental consent, we will delete his or her information as soon as possible.
