This policy covers how FamilySafe treats personal information that FamilySafe collects and receives, including information related to your past use of FamilySafe products and services. Personal information is information about you and your child that is personally identifiable like your name, address, email address, or phone number, and that is not otherwise publicly available.

This policy does not apply to the practices of companies that FamilySafe does not own or control or to people that FamilySafe does not employ or manage.

• FamilySafe will never provide personally identifiable information about your child to any party.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

• FamilySafe does not rent, sell, or share personal information about you with other people or non-affiliated companies except to provide products or services you've requested, when we have your permission, or under the following circumstances:
• We provide the information to trusted partners who work on behalf of or with FamilySafe under confidentiality agreements. These companies may use your personal information to help FamilySafe communicate with you about offers from FamilySafe and our marketing partners. However, these companies do not have any independent right to share this information.
• We have a parent's permission to share the information if the user is a child under age 13.

• We transfer information about you if FamilySafe is acquired by or merged with another company. In this event, FamilySafe will notify you before information about you is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
• FamilySafe displays targeted advertisements based on personal information. Advertisers (including ad serving companies) may assume that people who interact with, view, or click targeted ads meet the targeting criteria-for example, women ages 18-24 from a particular geographic area.
• FamilySafe does not provide any personal information to the advertiser when you interact with or view a targeted ad. However, by interacting with or viewing an ad you are consenting to the possibility that the advertiser will make the assumption that you meet the targeting criteria used to display the ad.
