1. The Information We Collect

As described in this Privacy Policy, we directly collect from child users during our initial registration process a parent's email address, the child's account name, and the child's password. When a Kid Command child registrant acquires a paid membership, we may collect additional personal specific information ("PI") from the registrant's parent. The types of PI that may be collected at that time include the parent's full name, email address, and credit card billing information including mailing address. The Kid Command website does not condition a child's participation in an online activity on the child providing more personal information than is reasonably necessary for that activity. The Kid Command website requires child users to provide a parent's valid email address in order to register on the website. We use this information to send the parent a message that can be used to activate the Kid Command account, to notify the parent about our privacy practices, to send the parent communications either about the parent’s and child’s Kid Command accounts or about features of our Web site, and for the other purposes described in this Privacy Policy. This email address is correlated with the account user name. We may also request a user name and email address when a user submits a form through the "Contact Us" portion of the Kid Command website so that we may respond to the inquiry. We collect the e-mail address for the sole purpose of responding directly on a one-time basis to a specific inquiry. For some of our online activities - such as polls or surveys - we may ask users to provide information that is not personally identifiable, such as country of residence or a visitor's favorite color. We also enable users to chat online through our website, but we take measures so that users cannot communicate personal information through this chat function. These measures include filters and live moderation. Nonetheless, if you use the chat function within this website and disclose personally identifiable information, you should be aware that such information could be read, collected or used by other users. We are not responsible for the personally identifiable information you choose to submit through the chat function. Finally, we may offer blogs or other Public Forums (as defined in the Terms of Use governing the website (the "Terms of Use")), as well as other features in which you may provide us with Submissions (as defined in the Terms of Use), but we take measures, including live moderation, so that users cannot communicate personal information through these Public Forums. If you use a Public Forum on this website, and disclose personally identifiable information, you should be aware that such information could be read, collected or used by other users. We are not responsible for the personally identifiable information you choose to submit in these Public Forums. Additionally, when visitors come to our site, we may passively collect certain non-personally identifiable computer information, such as the type of computer operating system (e.g., Windows XP or Mac OS), the user's IP Address, the web browser (e.g., Firefox, Internet Explorer) being used, the frequency with which guests visit various parts of our sites, and information regarding the Internet service provider, in order to make our sites more interesting and useful to you and for various purposes related to our business. We may collect this non-personally identifiable information through the use of software technologies such as unique identifiers or "cookies." Cookies are small text files that we place in visitors' computer browsers to store their preferences. You can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent, or you can choose to turn off all cookies. You do this through your browser (like Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer) settings. Each browser is a little different, so look at your browser Help menu to learn the correct way to modify your cookies. If you turn cookies off, you won't have access to many features that make your Web experience smoother, and some of our services may not function properly. Finally, we collect financial information as set out in Section 5 of this Privacy Policy. We do not use this financial information for any purpose other than processing payments to Kid Command. The financial information that you enter to purchase a membership is not stored by Kid Command, but, instead, is retained by our payments processing vendor for the purpose of processing credit card payments made to Kid Command. If personal information is not provided to us, then Kid Command may not agree to Kid Command membership and may not be able to provide access to certain content and functionality on the Kid Command website, or to provide other information, products or services which may be requested.

3. Collection of Information for Third-Party Sites and Sponsors

We do not allow third-party companies to solicit or advertise to our users. Our intention is to keep Kid Command free from any of this sort of direct advertising.

4. Security

The security of your personal information is important to us. We have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and help prevent unauthorized access, maintain data security, and correctly use the information we collect online. When you enter sensitive information, such as your credit card number, or our membership subscription form, we encrypt that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL).

5. Financial Information

As noted in Section 1, if a child decides to purchase a membership, the parent's full name, email address, credit card billing information including mailing address will be required at the time of purchase. That information is not stored by Kid Command, and, instead, is collected and stored by our payments processing vendor for the purpose of processing payments made to Kid Command. That information is safeguarded with appropriate security, and it will not be used for other purposes. Furthermore, our payments processing vendor has agreed to maintain the confidentiality, security, and integrity of the personal and financial information it obtains from the Kid Command website, and only to use this information on our behalf. All applicable privacy laws relating to the provision of financial services bind our financial institution.

6. Access to Information, and Objection to Information Collection and Retention

To protect you and your child's privacy and security, we will take reasonable steps to help verify your identity before granting you access to the personal information that we collect and maintain about you or your child.
