We encourage you to read this Privacy Policy before using the Site, and not to use the Site if you disagree with any part of this Privacy Policy. By using this Site or by submitting Personal Data through our Site or Services, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy and you expressly consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your Personal Data in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We recognize the need to provide further privacy protections with respect to children's personal information that we may collect through the Site. When we intend to collect children's personal information, we take additional steps to protect children's privacy, including:
If a child wants to register an Account on our Site or provide us with any personal information (e.g., in connection with submitting a membership or volunteer application), and your child is under 13 years old, we require the child to submit a parent's email address or telephone number. We use the parent's email address and/or telephone number to seek parental consent for the child registering with our Site and submitting volunteer applications, and to explain what information we are collecting, how we plan to use it, and how the parent can revoke consent or request at any time that we remove the account and delete any personal information collected from the child (including the parental contact information). If the parent does not consent, we delete the information submitted by the child. If you believe your child is participating in an activity that collects personal information and you or another parent/guardian have NOT consented, or if you no longer wish for your child to have an Account on the Site or for us to maintain your child's applications, please feel free to contact us at info@CuriOdyssey.organd we will delete your child's account, applications and the parental contact information. We may use information collected from children during the Site registration/application process (such as user name and password) to create and maintain the child's Account on our Site, in connection with their participation in volunteer activities or other CuriOdyssey events and programs, and otherwise in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
If you are a non U.S. user of the Site, by visiting the Site and providing us with data, you acknowledge and agree that your Personal Data may be processed for the purposes identified in the Privacy Policy. In addition, your Personal Data may be processed in the country in which it was collected and in other countries, including the United States, where laws regarding processing of Personal Data may be less stringent than the laws in your country. By providing your data, you consent to such transfer.
