Protection of children's privacy

As a parent or guardian, you have control over the personal information companies collect online from your kids under 13. The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act(COPPA), passed by the U.S. Congress in 1998, gives you tools to do that.

COPPA puts you in charge of your child’s personal information. The Rule also applies to a general audience site that knows it’s collecting personal information from kids of that age.

In compliance with COPPA, we notify parents directly and get their approval before we collect, use, or disclose a child’s personal information.

A similar clause under Article 8, GDPR passed by the EU states that processing of personal data of a child below 16 years is subject to parental consent.

If any information is furnished by a child ranging between the ages of 13 and 16 as the case may be, please write to us to retrieve the information.
