Many of our Applications, such as our numerous Lulu&Lala and Tagme3D mobile e-books, are meant to be used by children. These apps allow for the scanning of book pages onto the app so we can recognize the book and allow for reading of the book on a mobile device. These apps may also allow for the child to record his/her voice together with the story/narrative of the book, however, the child's voice recording is stored locally within the app and is not uploaded back to our servers.
Our children's apps do not knowingly collect and upload any personal information from children users under the age of 13, and they do not allow kids to publicize or share personal information with other users. In addition, we employ a parental gate before linking out of our apps to our online book store for parents and grown-ups.
Because we do not currently collect and upload from our apps any personal information from children users, we do not currently provide a mechanism for parents to review or modify their children's personal information.
