COPPA - Children's Online Privacy Policy Act

This web site is not specifically targeted for children under 13 years of age, but because the subject matter is games, it is likely that some members of the general population of visitors will be children. Though we do not generally collect information about our participants, we do encourage visitor interation through our forum, support, feedback, store, and marble design submission pages. Therefore, Welcome Friend Productions is operating this web site in compliance with COPPA, the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act.

The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act and Rule apply to individually identifiable information about a child that is collected online, such as full name, home address, email address, telephone number or any other information that would allow someone to identify or contact the child. The Act and Rule also cover other types of information -- for example, hobbies, interests and information collected through cookies or other types of tracking mechanisms -- when they are tied to individually identifiable information.
