Children’s Privacy

If you are under 18 and are reading this, please be sure to read this Privacy Policy for Children with your parent(s) and/or legal guardian(s) (collectively referred to as “parents”) and ask them questions about what you do not understand.

This Privacy Policy is incorporated herein by reference.

The Federal Trade Commission’s Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) requires us to inform parents about how we collect, use, and disclose Personal Information from children.

Under COPPA, “Personal Information” is defined as individually identifiable information, and includes: full name (first and last); a home or other physical address including street name and city or town; online contact information such as an email address or screen name; a phone number; a Social Security number; a photograph, video or audio file containing a child’s image or voice; a persistent identifier that can be used to recognize a child over time and across different websites or online services; geolocation information sufficient to identify street name and name of city or town; or information collected that is combined with the individually identifiable information listed above.

We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone – including those under the age of 18. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your Children have provided us with Personal Data, please immediately contact us. If we become aware that we have collected Personal Data from children without verification of parental consent, we will take immediate steps to remove that information from our servers.

Our Services are intended only for persons or businesses that request our services.  As such, in order to services these requests we may require some personal information in order to deliver updates and end products.  Our request for such identification is solely for the purpose of direct communications. We do not request, access, or retrieve any additional information. All information, including identification numbers, is protected from unauthorized disclosure.

We may also collect information about a child’s online activity, digital content selections, interactions with digital content such as an IP address, device type, unique device data such as device ID, and operating system.

We collect information through active participation of the child and passively through the use of “cookies” and similar technologies.

We collect information from a child in order to:

(i). Support the internal operations of the Services, including but not limited to support for: activities necessary to maintain or analyze the Services, network communications, user authentication of users or personalization of content, activities necessary to perform authorized purposes, and security of users;

(ii).  Determine the child’s current geographic location so that we may provide localized content and Services;

(iii) Comply with the requirements of our partners;

(iv). Integrate with additional service providers for use of the Services;

(v).  Personalize our Services to better reflect particular interests and preferences; and

(vi). Generally improve the user experience.

We never sell a child’s information. We may share anonymized information in aggregated form with third parties in order to analyze Service usage, improve the Services and user experience, or for other similar purposes. The use and disclosure of such anonymous information is not subject to any restrictions under this Privacy Policy for Children. A child’s information is only retained by Us for the time period necessary to support the authorized purposes.

What if a child shares information with others while using the Services?

While using Our Services, children may enjoy opportunities to post reviews and share digital content information with others in public forums and on social networking websites such as Facebook, X, etc.  When a child shares such information, it is made public and is not subject to this Privacy Policy for Children. We are not responsible for any third party’s use of information a child publicly displays or discloses through our Services.

Parents may email info@udev.com to inquire if their child has submitted Personal Information to Us and to request the review, correction, and/or removal of any such Personal Information from our system.

Parents and guardians are encouraged to monitor their child’s internet usage.
