Special Notice Regarding Children Under 13 Years of Age

COMPANY respects the privacy of children of all ages. COMPANY particularly recognizes the sensitivity of personal information concerning children under the age of 13 and therefore provides this special notice to parents and guardians regarding the collection and use of information collected from children in this age group.
The Service is not directed toward young children. If you are over the age of 13 but under the age of 18, you should use the Service only with the involvement of a parent or guardian and should not submit any PII to COMPANY. If we discover that a person under the age of 13 has provided COMPANY with PII, COMPANY will use commercially reasonable efforts to delete such person’s PII from its system.

a) Policy. COMPANY will use PII which you provide and which we obtain from third parties, such as business partners, in a manner consistent with this Policy.

b) Notice. COMPANY may use your PII to send you important information and notices regarding your Service account, the Service itself, to contact you in connection with a promotion or for other purposes disclosed when you provide the information. COMPANY may share PII with third parties to perform certain tasks for the Service such as download/subscription processing, purchase/order fulfillment, responding to service requests and payment processing. We may also contact you regarding any problems or questions we have relating to your use of the Service, or in our discretion, notify you of changes to the Policy, Terms and Conditions or other policy or terms that affect you and your use of the Service.

Such contractors or agents will have access to your PII to the extent it is needed to perform their duties and functions and will not share your information with any third party or use it for any other purpose. A company affiliate may collect your PII on COMPANY’s behalf when you register on the Site or access COMPANY content using your mobile telephone.

COMPANY may share your PII with its affiliated companies.

We may disclose non-identifying, aggregated User statistics to third parties for a variety of purposes, including describing our services to prospective partners and other third parties. Examples of such non-personal information include the number of Users who visited the Site during a specific time period or purchased a specific product through the Site.

f) Legal Use. COMPANY may disclose PII in order to protect the legal rights of COMPANY, its affiliates or their employees, agents and contractors; to protect the safety and security of visitors to our Site; to protect the rights, property or safety of COMPANY; or when legally required to do so, at the request of governmental authorities conducting an investigation, or to verify or enforce compliance with the policies governing the Service and applicable laws. If you ask COMPANY to stop using your PII, COMPANY will honor your request but retain any record of your PII as necessary to comply with applicable federal, state or local law.

g) Sale or Transfer. If COMPANY sells all or part of its business, makes a sale or transfer of assets or is otherwise involved in a merger, business transfer or other fundamental corporate change COMPANY reserves the right to disclose, share and/or otherwise transfer User information, including without limitation, PII to a third party as part of such transaction.
