COPPA Compliance
Disclosure:
This Privacy Policy presumes that your website is not
directed at children under the age of 13 and does not knowingly collect
personal identifiable information from them or allow others to do the same
through your site. If this is not true for your website or online service and
you do collect such information (or allow others to do so), please be aware

to avoid violations which could lead to law enforcement actions, including
civil penalties.
In order to be fully compliant with COPPA your website or

policy which describes not only your practices, but also the practices
of any others collecting personal information on your site or service — for
example, plug-ins or ad networks; (ii) include a prominent link to your privacy
policy anywhere you collect personal information from children;
(iii) include a description of parental rights (e.g. that you won't require a child to disclose
more information than is reasonably necessary, that they can review their
child's personal information, direct you to delete it, and refuse to allow any
further collection or use of the child's information, and the procedures to
exercise their rights); (iv) give parents "direct notice" of your information
practices before collecting information from their children; and (v) obtain the
parents' "verifiable consent" before collecting, using or disclosing personal
information from a child. For more information on the definition of these terms
