CHILDREN’S PRIVACY DISCLOSURE FOR THE PINKY UP TRAVEL MOBILE APPLICATION
Last updated: August 1st, 2021
This disclosure and The Pinky Up Travel Mobile Application Privacy Policy describe how we handle personal information we collect from children under the age of 13 ("child" or "children"). Our Pinky Up Travel mobile application (the “App” or “Pinky Up Travel App”) is not targeted at children under the age of 13; however, we recognize that some clients may want their children to have access to the App.
Under the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), your consent is required for the collection, use, or disclosure of any personal information from your child. Therefore, you must provide consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information from your child as described in the Pinky Up Travel Mobile Application Privacy Policy and this Direct Notice before we can create an account for your child. We will not create an account for your child or collect, use or disclose any personal information from children under 13 years of age without parental consent.
This notice describes our practices of collecting, using, and disclosing personal information from children under the age of 13. Instructions for giving consent are provided below. If we do not receive your consent within a reasonable time, Pinky Up Travel will delete your online contact information from our records.
Information We Collect.
The Pinky Up Travel Mobile Application Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference, details the types of personal information that we collect and/or process from users. COPPA applies to personal information collected online from children, including personal information about themselves, their parents, friends, or other persons. It does not apply to information we collect from you about your child. Should you provide consent, Pinky Up Travel may collect the following information directly from your child.
Information Third Parties May Collect from Your Child.
This disclosure does not apply to the practices of any third-party services (including apps, skills, and websites) that may be accessed through our App. Before using any third-party service, you should review the applicable terms and policies to determine their appropriateness for your child, including the service’s data collection and use practices.
Application Programming Interfaces (APIs)
Our App includes a map that is operated by a third-party service provider, Mapbox, Inc. (“Mapbox”), and integrated into our App via an application programming interface (API). By using the map, Mapbox may collect the following personal information from your child, so we encourage you to read our service provider’s privacy policy prior to giving us consent to create an account for your child. Pinky Up Travel does not collect or receive this information.
Mapbox may automatically collect certain technical information. This technical information includes (a) your IP address, (b) your device and browser information, (c) your operating system, (d) the content of the request, (e) the date and time of the request, (f) limited location and usage data, and (g) randomly generated ID. Certain features and functionalities of the map require access to your child’s specific geological information. Your child may decline access to the geolocational information, in which case we will not be able to provide certain features or functionalities. In many cases, your child’s mobile device platform will provide additional tools to allow you to control when your child’s device collects or shares particular categories of personal data.
External Websites; App Stores
The App may contain links to third-party websites. We have no control over the privacy practices or the content of these websites. As such, we are not responsible for the content or the privacy policies of those third-party websites. You should check the applicable third-party privacy policy and terms of use when visiting any other websites.
Your app store (e.g., iTunes or Google Play) may collect certain information in connection with your use of the App. We have no control over the collection of such information by a third-party app store, and any such collection or use will be subject to that third party’s applicable privacy policies.
How Information is Used.
We will use the Information we collect:
With Whom We Share the Information That We Collect Directly from Your Child.
Your Consent and Parental Controls.
You choose whether to give us permission to collect Child Personal Information from your child and can revoke it any time. Clients may request that we create an account for a child under the age of 13 by emailing us at contact@pinkyuptravel.com with “Child Under the Age of 13” in the subject line. We will send you a direct notice with more information as well as a consent form for you to sign.
Upon receipt of your signed consent, we will create an account for your child, which you can access at any time by using your child’s username and password to log in. You will be responsible for (i) deciding what content, if any, your child may post on the App’s Journal feature; (ii) choosing whether to grant access to geolocational tracking; and (iii) actively monitoring your child’s content. You agree that you will only allow your child to post any personal information with your consent.
You can contact us at contact@pinkyuptravel.com to request access to, change, or delete your child’s personal information or to revoke your consent. A valid request to delete personal information will be accommodated within a reasonable time. At any time, you can refuse to permit us to collect further personal information from your children in association with a particular account and can request that we delete from our records the personal information we have collected in connection with that account.
In the event we discover we have collected information from a child in a manner inconsistent with COPPA’s requirements, we will either delete the information or immediately seek the parent’s consent for that collection.
