What information do we collect from children, how do we use it and how and when do we communicate with parents?

Sing Scripture offers users our website and application content, of which may appeal to children. Below, please find summaries of certain potential instances when we may collect information about your child and when we will provide parental notice and/or seek parental consent to collect such information. If we discover that we collected information from a child in a manner that is inconsistent with COPPA, we will immediately delete the information and seek the parent’s consent for that specific collection.

Registration:
Children can, in many cases, register with our site and application to view content, play games, participate in contests, and engage in special features, among other things. During the registration process, we may ask the child to provide certain information for notification and security purposes, including a parental email address, the child’s first and last name, the child’s member or account username, and password. We strongly advise children never to provide any personal information in their usernames.

About the collection of parent email address: Consistent with the requirements of COPPA, on any child-targeted site or application, or in any instance where we ask for age and determine the user is age 12 or under, we will ask for a parent or guardian email address before we collect any personal information from the child. If you believe your child is participating in an activity that collects personal information and you or another parent/guardian have NOT received an email providing notice or seeking your consent, please feel free to contact us.

Contests:
For contests, we typically require only the information necessary for a child to participate, such as first name (to distinguish among family members) and parent email address (to notify the parent where required by law). We only contact the parent for more personalized information for prize-fulfillment purposes when the child wins the contest.
