Scope of this Policy.

This Policy describes how we collect, use, and disclose personal information about children under 18 years old when their Parent subscribes on their behalf to a Six Degree Sports Service. This policy incorporates by reference the Privacy Policy and Terms of Use Policy for Six Degree Sports. Those policies can be viewed by using the links provided below.

 
BY USING OR ACCESSING OUR SERVICES, OR BY PERMITTING YOUR CHILD TO USE OR ACCESS OUR SERVICES, YOU ARE ACCEPTING THE PRACTICES DESCRIBED IN THIS POLICY.

We at Six Degree Sports are dedicated to safeguarding your privacy.

Depending on the Six Degree Sports Service, a Parent will have the option to do some, if not all, of the following:

  • Create an account that includes Personal and/or Profile Information
  • Register your child online for membership
  • Receive certain notifications, email or text from other users of the Service
  • Post photographs or videos of your child
  • Make credit card or ACH payments online
  • View balances in accounts

The Services are available to children under the age of 18in Australia and 13 in the US only with parental consent. The Services are intended for parents or adult use until a child reaches the age of 18. Certain Services can be used by children under the age of 18 only with significant parental involvement, oversight and approval.

Children under the age of 18 are not allowed to use Six Degree Sports Services without a parent’s permission. Children under the age of 18 also may not subscribe to or create their own account with Six Degree Sports. Children may only have a child account that is established by, and with the permission of, a Parent.

Parental Consent.

Six Degree Sports is required by AGCPL and COPPA to use reasonable efforts to ensure that before we collect any personal information from a child, the child’s parent receives notice of and consents to our information practices. As a parent, you should know that through the Six Degree Sports Service children under the age of 18 may participate in activities that involve the collection or use of personal information. However, children may not participate in any Site activities without a parent’s permission.

If your child is under age 18, Six Degree Sports must have “verifiable parental consent” before we collect and use your child’s personal information. We do this in two ways:

  1. Through the parent’s registration and payment for their child’s participation in a sport or camp; be a member of a team or club; or subscribe to use one of the Six Degree Sports Services; and,
  2. By acceptance of agreement within the registration process when setting up an account, profile or registration is being created on behalf of the child; or the child is added to team or club roster; or the parent confirms the intended purpose to use the Six Degree Sports Service.
 
Information We Collect and How We Collect It.

The Six Degree Sports Privacy Policy and Terms of Use sets forth the information we collect for both children and those who are over the age of 18. This information is collected in the same manner regardless of age but in the instance of a child under 18, only with the Parent’s consent.

A Parent has many tools to monitor and supervise the child’s activities. For example, we allow Parents to edit their child’s profile, turn on and off notifications, monitor all postings to the site by their child or other Users using the Service. Parents should always closely monitor their children’s use of the Services.

Tracking Activities on the Site.

When your child is logged into his or her account, we may track your child’s activities within the Site. For example, we track the pages visited, the length of time spent logged in, the information submitted about preferences and comments posted via the Service. This information is associated with your child’s account and may be combined with the personally identifiable information we collect from him or her.

We may partner with third parties to provide content and/or to display targeted advertisements. We will not share your child’s personally identifiable information with these third parties. However, some of these third parties may use tracking technologies, such as cookies and Web beacons, in order to track user activity. We do not exercise control over or have access to these tracking technologies or the information practices of these parties, which are subject to the privacy policies of these third parties.

Parents may request information from us on the type of data being collected, view their child’s information, and, if they choose, prohibit us from making further use of their child’s information. For more information on how to do this, see the section below entitled “How To Review, Delete or Alter the Information Collected From Your Child.”

How To Review, Delete or Alter the Information Collected from Your Child.

You can review your child’s personal information at any time by logging into their account or profile. You may remove access for your child OR delete your child’s account entirely. You can also have your child’s personal information deleted and refuse to permit further collection of such information by us.
