PLEASE PRINT THIS FORM AND GIVE TO YOUR PARENT/ LEGAL GUARDIAN
Dear Parent/Legal Guardian:
Your child has recently become a player on the neopets.com website. We are committed to providing your child a safe place to learn and explore. Because of your child's age, your child's access to areas on the site that would permit your child to communicate with other players currently is limited.
Your child would like your permission to fully participate in the communications portions of the site such as (1) sending and receiving Neomail (the website's internal e-mail system) from Neopets and other users of the Neopets website; (2) reading and posting messages on Neopets message boards; and (3) personalizing certain areas on the site, such as the child's and pets' look-up, store, gallery, guild, and trading post. Your child has provided your e-mail address, name and his or her name to us so that we can request your permission to allow your child to use these communications portions of the site.
Your permission is required for the collection, use, or disclosure of your child's personal information. We will not activate your child's account for the communications portions of the site unless you provide us permission. With your permission, we may collect information from your child, such as his or her e-mail address, demographic and computer information, persistent identifiers and other information collected using cookies, web beacons, clear GIFs, and similar online technologies, information about your child's interest in and use of the Neopets site and other information as described in full in our Privacy Policy. We also may collect and process your child's information in the United States, and you consent to our use of cookies, web beacons, clear GIFs, and similar online technologies as described in our Privacy Policy.
If you were not with your child when he or she registered, we encourage you to visit our site to see for yourself all that we have to offer, including our page regarding online safety available here:
www.neopets.com/safetytips.phtml. The privacy of our players is very important to us. Please view our Privacy Policy to learn about what measures we have undertaken to protect your child's privacy:
www.neopets.com/privacy.phtml.
Because some of the site features will enable your child to publicly post personal information, we encourage you to monitor and supervise your child's Internet activities during his or her exploration of our site. You may, for example, want to set rules for your child about whom he or she can talk to, what general discussion topics are allowed, and what personal information, if any, is okay to share. Please remind your child not to publicly post personal information such as name, telephone number or e-mail on any website. We may monitor messages and posts through our filtering system by our human monitors twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, but your continued involvement is important.
Once you have reviewed our site and our Privacy Policy, please fill out the following consent form and fax (1-310-533-3700) or mail it back to us at: NeoPets, Inc., P.O. Box 184, Torrance, CA 90507. If you do not provide your consent within a reasonable time from the date of this message, we will delete your information from our records.
We look forward to hearing from you and welcoming your child to our Internet communities.
