KangaPlace Privacy Notice

April 15, 2010

The KangaPlace Privacy Policy describes how we treat personal information when you use KangaPlace' products and services, including information provided when your children access their pouches.

At KangaPlace, we recognize that privacy is important and even more so to parents of young children.

Personal information

  • You need a KangaPlace Account to access KangaPlace. KangaPlace requires some personal information when you create a KangaPlace Account, including your e-mail address, name and a password, which is used to protect your account from unauthorized access. A KangaPlace Account must be activated by visiting a kangaplace.com website link which verifies the account e-mail address.
  • KangaPlace processes and maintains your account, pouches, website lists and other data related to your account in order to provide the service to you.
  • When you use KangaPlace, KangaPlace' servers automatically record certain information about your use of the service. Similar to other web services, KangaPlace records information such as account activity (number of log-ins, number of pouch visits), data displayed or clicked on (including UI elements, links); and other log information (including browser type, IP-address, date and time of access, cookie ID, and referrer URL).

Uses

  • KangaPlace maintains and processes your account and its contents to provide the KangaPlace service to you and to improve our services. The KangaPlace service includes lists of reviewed child-oriented websites, recommendations of other sites that fit your accounts usage, reports and other information related to your accounts use of KangaPlace.
  • KangaPlace' computers process the visits and linked websites in your pouches for various purposes, including recommendations to other account holders, ranking popularity of websites, tracking usage for reporting purposes, and other purposes relating to offering you KangaPlace.
  • KangaPlace may send you information related to your KangaPlace account or other KangaPlace services.

Information sharing and onward transfer

  • When a pouch link is clicked, KangaPlace tracks which link was activated and forwards the user on to the selected site.
  • We do not sell, rent or otherwise share your personal information with any third parties except in the limited circumstances described in the KangaPlace Privacy Policy, such as when we believe we are required to do so by law.
  • If KangaPlace becomes involved in a merger, acquisition, or any form of sale of some or all of its assets, we will provide notice before personal information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
  • We may share with third parties certain pieces of aggregated, non-personal information, such as the number of users who visited a particular site, for example, or how many users have a particular link in their pouch. Such information does not identify you, your account or your children.

Your choices

  • You may change your KangaPlace account settings through the KangaPlace "My Account" section.
  • You may organize or delete your pouches and their links to external sites through your KangaPlace account or terminate your account through the KangaPlace "My Account" section. Such deletions or terminations will take immediate effect in your account view.

Changes to this policy

Please note that this Privacy Policy may change from time to time. We expect most changes will be minor. Regardless, we will post any Policy changes on this page and, if the changes are significant, we will provide a more prominent notice. Each version of this Policy will be identified at the top of the page by its effective date.
