FamilyClick realizes the safety concerns parents and caregivers face when using the Internet. Users of this site can be confident that the privacy and integrity of any personal information that may be provided (or collected from FamilyClick) in any section of the site will be strictly maintained. FamilyClick encourages parents to supervise their children's activities online and to participate with their children whenever possible.

Please note that by using this site, you agree to the FamilyClick Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to the Policy, please do not utilize the site. FamilyClick also reserves the right to, at its discretion, modify or remove portions of the Policy at any time

Collecting Personal Information

FamilyClick does at times request general information from its users. For example, we do ask kids to join as members of our "Kids Club" before they use the interactive activities on the site so that we can monitor them in the Chat Room and Message Boards and react quickly to safety problems. We collect only general demographic information such as gender, age, and zip code during registration. Any content preferences information we collect will be used for research and marketing purposes only and will NOT be sold to any third parties.

Sweepstakes and Contests

FamilyClick may use a reputable third party to manage some of its sweepstakes and contests, and this third party company may have access to some of the personally identifiable information that is provided in contest and/or sweepstakes entry. The personally identifiable information will be used by the contest administrator only for the specific contest-related purpose for which it is requested, and the information will not be sold, marketed or transferred to other companies.

In order for a child who wins a FamilyClick contest to receive a prize, he/she must submit a signed parental release and affidavit to FamilyClick.Com, giving FamilyClick the right to send the gift to them. All prizes are sent to the parents and not to the child directly.

Except as described above, no information obtained from a contest entrant under the age of 13 is ever sold or transferred to third parties by FamilyClick.

Chat Rooms, Message Boards and Submissions

FamilyClick's Chat Rooms are monitored at all times to ensure the highest level of safety for children participating in chats. They are encouraged not to give out any personal information and are given specific rules about what is appropriate for a chat room. While FamilyClick cannot be responsible for what is discussed or posted in a chat room or on a message board, parents can be confident that chat monitors will be regularly monitoring each chat and will address any objectionable content and or participants in the chat room. If a chat participant proves to be using derogative or abusive language or exhibiting aggressive or harmful chat behavior, FamilyClick reserves the right to ask these users to leave the chat area and block them from further participation in FamilyClick chats and message boards.

Make it a practice to discuss Internet safety with your children on a regular basis. Kids should be warned not to give out personal contact information in chat rooms, on message boards, in E-mail or any other communication areas on a web site, without getting parental permission first.
