Children's Privacy Notice

1. Introduction

We do NOT collect from children:

• Email addresses
• Phone numbers

• Social media identifiers
• Behavioural data for advertising

3. How We Use Children's Information

We use children's information only to:

You can add, edit, or remove children from your household at any time through your account settings.
