Personal Information from a child under the age of 13 is only collected when it is necessary for the purposes of verifying the child’s age, administering the child’s participation in the contest or promotion and, if the child wins a prize, contacting the child’s parent or guardian. We will not use, maintain or disclose this Personal Information for any other purpose, without consent.

The child’s parent or guardian can contact us at any time to get more information about our Personal Information practices or to remove the child’s Personal Information from our records.
