Children

How We Protect the Privacy of Children

To protect children's personal information and to meet the standards of the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), we do not collect any personal information from children under 13 that can be used to specifically identify them. The FindHow.com website is a general audience website not geared toward children. Children under the age of 13 may browse the FindHow.com website, but they may not create a FindHow.com account, sign up for email newsletters, or participate in contests or surveys. In several areas of the FindHow.com website, such as when users contact us via email, create a FindHow.com account, or sign up for email newsletters and alerts, we ask for birth year information. This information helps us ensure that children do not provide us with their personal detailed information. We do not save birth year information, or use it for any marketing, promotional or any other purpose. We appreciate your cooperation in helping enforce children's online privacy. Still have questions? We invite you to review our Privacy Policy, or get more information on COPPA from the Federal Trade Commission.

If a child under age 13 falsely registers with FindHow under an assumed age, and this is brought to FindHow's attention by a parent or other party via a feedback form or U.S. mail, FindHow will take action to delete the account.
