  • The COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act) was created in 1998 to prohibit web sites from collecting identifying or personal information about minor children.
    This information includes
    First and Last Name
    Address
    Email Address
    Phone Number
    Social Security Number
    Any other information that would allow contact with a minor either physically or online
    If a web site collects this data from children under the age of 13, they need to obtain parental consent and identify how this information could be used. Parents have the right to request a disclosure of how that information has been used.
