that parents and guardians have control over what information is collected from
their children online and how such information is or may be used. The

compliant with the requirements of COPPA and not to solicit or collect
information about or from children age 13 and under.
Beyond the requirements of COPPA, we require that individuals be
age 18 or over to register as a member of the Service and thus it is our policy
not to solicit or collect information about or from anyone under the age of 18.
Users are cautioned, however, that absent a clear indication an online
communication has been submitted by a person under age 18, the collection of
Personal Information submitted to the Website will be treated as though it was
submitted by an adult, and may, unless exempted from access by federal or state
law, be subject to public access.
In the event that www.decodinglatin.com OR www.decodinglatin.org
receives an online communication clearly indicating that it has been submitted
by a person under the age of 18, under no circumstances will any Personal
Information be published on the Website, be used for a purpose not intended by
its sender or shared with third parties.
If you or your company would like more information about COPPA,
please visit the Federal Trade Commission's official COPPA page at www.ftc.gov.
