How does SFKG handle children’s information?
NOTE TO PARENTS SFKG has developed its Services to be an enjoyable experience for users of all ages, including those under 13 (“Children” or “Child”). Please discuss this Policy with your Children so that they will better understand how to use the Services and the information they may be asked to provide when using the Services. SFKG believes that providing its visitors with accurate and adequate notice about the Services will inform choices and decisions about how to use the Services and will better protect its users’ privacy. If you have any questions or comments about this Policy, please contact us using the contact information provided at the end of this section. SFKG is committed to compliance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”), a law designed to protect Children online. We take Children’s privacy seriously and encourage parents to take an active role in protecting their Children’s privacy and online experience at all times. Except as otherwise outlined in this Policy, we do not collect personal information from users of the Services.Services Directed to Children
SFKG’s Services contain content appropriate for a wide range of audiences, including Children. For a list of Services that SFKG treats as being directed to Children under COPPA, please contact shine@stageforkids.com.Collection and Use of Children’s Personal Information
SFKG may collect and store persistent identifiers (e.g., cookies, IP addresses, etc.) from Children without parental consent for the purpose of supporting the internal operations of the Service or as otherwise permitted under COPPA. SFKG may collect and store other personal information about Children if this information is submitted by a Child with prior parental consent or by the parent or guardian of the Child. If a Service is directed to children under COPPA, we may ask users to verify their dates of birth before collecting any personal information from them. Those users that indicate they are Children are either blocked from the activity or taken through a parental consent process. SFKG may collect and store the following types of personal information about a Child when submitted by a Child with prior parental consent or by the parent or guardian of the Child: first and/or last name, email address, parent’s or guardian’s name, and parent’s or guardian’s email address. SFKG may also collect the Child’s mailing address and/or telephone number when necessary to respond to an inquiry or fulfill a transaction, such as sending the winner of a contest or sweepstakes the awarded prize. SFKG may also collect demographic information about a Child such as the Child’s date of birth, gender, toy and game ownership and other preferences, and combine such information with the Child’s personal information. Please refer to the sections entitled “What information is collected from me?” and “ How d oes SFKG use my information?” for further details on the information we collect and the tools we use to collect it. When registering an account to play online games, we may collect a username and password from registrants for the purpose of saving that user’s gaming activities (e.g., pets collected in Littlest Pet Shop). Once collected, we may also use the game play information for our internal marketing and demographic studies so that we can improve the products and services we provide our visitors in order to better meet their needs, or as otherwise described in this Policy. Please note that we use aggregated (i.e., non-personal) information for analytics purposes. Additionally, we are prohibited by COPPA from conditioning a Child’s participation in an activity – like contests – on the Child’s disclosure of more personal information than is reasonably necessary to participate in the activity. This means that if we don’t need a specific piece of information (like the Child’s phone number) to allow the Child to participate in a contest, we simply won’t ask for it, even with parental consent. To read about the steps SFKG takes to protect the confidentiality, security, and integrity of all users’ personal information, please see our section on “ Security”.Disclosure of Children’s Personal Information
We follow our standard policy (“With whom does SFKG share my personal information?”) for the disclosure of personal information collected from and about Children.Parental Access
