Privacy Policy
Tiny Planets

This privacy policy explains how information, including personal information, is collected, used and protected when visiting Tiny Planets (TP) or any of its hosted websites – Tiny Planets Learning, Tiny Planets Fun, Tiny Planets Books, Tiny Planets TV, My Tiny Planets, Tiny Planets Labs and Tiny Planets Blog (collectively “Tiny Planets”). Your child’s online privacy is important and we ask that you read our privacy policy with your child. We also encourage parents and their children to learn about how they can be safe online by visiting the Federal Trade Commission’s children’s online privacy page that you can access by clicking http://www.onguardonline.gov/topics/kids-privacy.aspx

This privacy policy does not apply to companies or contractors that TP does not own or control. But when we use other companies or contractors to provide services required for your use and enjoyment of TP, we first make sure that they protect your or your child’s personal information in a manner that is consistent with this Policy.

The term “you” means a child’s parent or legal guardian unless otherwise specified. The terms “we” or “our” means TP and all of our hosted sites.

What is Tiny Planets?

Tiny Planets is a fun, interactive website where children who are under 8 and their families can learn and play with others. TP and its hosted sites are owned and operated by My Tiny Planets, Limited (MTP), formerly Pepper’s Ghost Productions, Limited (PGP), and based in the United Kingdom. Our address is Buckingham House, West Street, Newbury, Berkshire RG14 1BE, England. Company No. 03037450. Our e-mail address is contact@mytinyplanets.com This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. Our phone number is (44) 1932 213072.

The details of our privacy policy are explained below but here’s our bottom line: We take privacy seriously.

• We only collect minimal personal information and only as necessary to enable participation in the sites’ activities and to make them fun and interesting. When we do collect personal information we use it only for the specific purpose for which it was collected and do not keep the information for any longer than necessary to accomplish that purpose.
• We tell children not to disclose personal information on the site. We take reasonable measures to protect the confidentiality, security and integrity of personal information in our possession.
• We do not sell a child’s -- or their parent’s or guardian’s -- personal information to anybody.

When we share personal information with third parties it is only so they can perform a specific function required for the operation of the TP website -- and only after they agree not to use that information for any purpose unrelated to the reason we gave it to them in the first place.

Why Does TP Have a Privacy Policy?

TP has a privacy policy because we want to keep you and your family informed about our information collection practices. The U.S. Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act Rule also requires that websites like ours give notice to children and their parents about the information we collect and how we use it, and to tell parents how they can give or withhold consent for the collection, storage and use of that information. More information about the rule is available at the Federal Trade Commission website at: http://www.onguardonline.gov/topics/kids-privacy.aspx.

The U.K. and Europe do not have a specific counterpart to the U.S. rule but do have laws that encompass the protection of all online privacy, including children’s information.

Can a Child Participate in TP’s Activities without Disclosing Personal Information?

Yes. Personal information is not collected from children playing on free accounts. We have designed TP so a child can enjoy many of TP’s activities for free and without disclosing any personal information. To play for free on My Tiny Planets, a child is asked to type a username and password that does not reveal their real name or e-mail address. They are then asked to select a cadet name from an auto generated list of usernames that he or she can use for playing games on the website. They are given the choice of telling us if they are a boy or girl, and they are asked to give their age so they can view age-appropriate curriculum.

When Does TP Collect Personal Information?

We collect a limited amount of personal information:

• From a child’s parent or legal guardian when a child wants his or her parent or legal guardian to purchase “Stars” (TP’s virtual currency), premium content, or wants to participate in premium activities or purchase TP products. In either instance we ask the child’s parent or legal guardian for his or her full name and e-mail address and the child’s screen name so we know who the account is being created for. Your consent to providing this information and to your child’s participation in premium activities or viewing premium content is provided by your completed credit card transaction.
• From a parent or legal guardian when the parent or legal guardian creates a parent account solely for player account oversight and management purposes.
• From a child when a child enters a contest that we may offer from time to time on our website. To participate, a child may be asked to provide his or her first name and e-mail address for entry and prize notification. We will not use the e-mail address provided by your child for any other purpose. The name and e-mail address will only be retained until the completion of the contest and will then be immediately deleted from our records. If we must contact the child more than once in connection with the contest, we will ask for a parent or guardian's e-mail address so we can seek consent from the child's parent or legal guardian before we contact the child again in relation to the contest. We will give you the option of asking us to delete the child's entry in the contest. If we do not obtain consent after a reasonable period, we will not contact the child again. A child is not prohibited from participating in a contest if they refuse or are unable to provide the personal information. TP will provide an alternate means of entry that will be posted on the website.
• From a child when a child would like to send a pre-scripted “e-card” to a friend. We will only collect the friend’s e-mail address. We will not ask for, and the sender will not be able to disclose, any personal information in the e-card, including the sender’s e-mail address. The e-card is generated from a TP e-mail address for transmission purposes. We will send the card immediately and immediately delete the friend’s email address.
• It is possible that a child could contact us online via his or her or e-mail address and discloses personal information in the body of the e-mail, including the e-mail address. In this event we will respond to the child only one time and immediately delete the child’s e-mail from our system.
• t is possible that a child could disclose personal information in a blog comment. Our blog is pre-screened for personal information by our moderator. If your child discloses personal information in a comment, that information will be immediately deleted before the comment is posted, and the personal information will be deleted from our system.

Will TP Contact a Parent or Legal Guardian at the Payment or Premium Service E-mail Address?

• In most cases we will only contact a parent or legal guardian at the payment or premium service e-mail address to send a confirmation notice explaining the premium services purchased by the parent or legal guardian.
• We may use a parent or legal guardian’s e-mail address to respond to a customer service message acknowledging receipt of an inquiry. In most cases we will post a response on our customer service blog. In this instance the parent or legal guardian will not be identified.
• We may use the payment or premium service e-mail address to confirm creation of the parent account, or to provide the parent or legal guardian with a means to for password retrieval.
• We may also contact a parent or legal guardian to enforce Terms and Conditions or send notice of a material change to our privacy policy.

What Will TP use Personal Information for?

• To send a notice and registration confirmation message to a parent or legal guardian.
• To send username or password reminders to parents.
• To enable participation in contests.
• To support or improve the operations of the website.
• To enforce the Terms and Conditions.
• To defend the integrity of the website.
• To respond to law enforcement or judicial process.
• To obtain verifiable parental consent when a child wants to engage in certain premium activities, or, to respond to a specific request from child one time.

How Does TP Verify Parental Consent for an Activity?

Once a parent has created a parent account we verify parental consent through the completion of a credit card transaction conducted through the parent account and associated with the purchase of a premium membership account and activities, content or products available to those account holders. You will be directed to our the payment site of Social Gold, our payment partner to complete the transaction, where you will be subject to Social Gold’s privacy policy.

Does TP Use Cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your computer’s hard drive so the site can remember how you interact with the site.

When you interact with www.tinyplanets.com or any of its hosted websites, a cookie is deposited on your computer to provide continuity to your experience each time you visit the site.

In addition, a cookie is deposited by Google Analytics to collect limited information about how you interact with TP to tell us how to make TP as fun and interesting as possible, or otherwise improve the site. The cookie collects: 1) the name of the domain from which TP or its hosted websites is accessed (for example, Verizon.net for those using a Verizon.net e-mail address); 2) the date and time of access; 3) the Internet address of any website from which a user linked directly to www.tinyplanets.com; 4) the country from which access originated; and 5) the operating system and Internet browser software that was used to access www.tinyplanets.com.

The cookie also discloses to TP 1) how long users spend on the site; 2) which pages are visited most and least often; 3) the number of times each page on www.tinyplanets.com or any of its hosted sites has been accessed; and 4) which activities are being played the most. This data is provided in the aggregate to TP and helps us understand user preference. TP may use this data to improve the user experience, including directing users to pages and activities they might find of interest. The cookie cannot automatically perform such individualized functions as remembering a username or password for automatic sign-in purposes.

You may refuse to accept cookies by setting your computer’s browser preferences to reject or delete cookies; however, by doing so your child may not be able to fully enjoy the website. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting to reject cookies, cookies will be deposited on your computer when you log on to our site.

Does TP Share Personal Information It Collects with Third Parties?

Yes, if collected, TP provides the minimum personal information that that is reasonably necessary for the performance of hosting or development services to the following third parties:

• IMI, our website developer to confirm the gaming is running correctly. Please contact IMI at info@imilabs.com. This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it if you have questions about its services.
• Hostway, the company that provides webhosting services for our websites. Hostway undertakes certain activities to maintain the operational integrity of our website. Please contact Hostway at 1-866-467-8929 if you have questions about its services.

We may also share information with:

• Law enforcement, as required by law.
• A new owner of the website if TP is acquired by or merged with another company or if ownership or control of TP is otherwise transferred to another company.

Does TP share Any Other Information it collects with Third Parties?

Yes. TP’s parent company, MTP, is participating in the Insemtives Specifically Targeted Research Project funded by the European Commission’s Seventh Framework Programme (“Project”). MTP is involved in a part of the Project that is examining the role of incentives when users provide annotations to different types of data. The Project is coordinated by the University of Innsbruck Semantic Technology Institute.

Non-personal information. Players participating in the Project’s Field Journal or Moon Explorer annotation activities on the My Tiny Planets (MTP) or Tiny Planets Labs (TPL) sites may be given a numerical identifier that is shared with other researchers for annotation data analysis. The researchers may perform a statistical analysis using the numerical identifiers in connection with their role in the Project. The numerical identifier cannot be used by the researchers to identify individual players. The annotation data is not shared with third parties for commercial purposes.

A parent or legal guardian may withhold consent to share their child’s annotation data with MTP’s research partners without preventing his or her child from participating in the annotation activities.

Google Analytics is a tool that generally enables businesses to see how visitors engage with their websites. This tool is being used in connection with the Project to help the researchers understand how users interact with the annotation activities on the MTP and TPL sites without collecting personal information that can be used to identify individual players.

Can a Parent or Legal Guardian Withhold Consent to Disclose a Child’s Personal or Account Information to Third Parties?

Yes. A parent or legal guardian may withhold consent to TP’s disclosure of personal or account information to third parties by following the directions on the Manage Your Account page of the website. Even if you initially consented you can change your mind. However, if disclosure of that information is reasonably necessary to enable your child to participate in specific activities -- or even play the game -- then your child may be precluded from participating in those activities or playing the game.

How Can a Parent or Legal Guardian Review their Child’s Personal or Account Information?

A parent or legal guardian may review their child’s personal or Account information by following the instructions on the Manage your Account page of the TP website.

How Can a Parent or Legal Guardian Tell a TP Website to Stop Collecting a Child’s Personal or Account Information?

A parent or legal guardian may tell us to stop collecting personal or account information by following the instructions on the Manage your Account page of the TP website. We will promptly stop collecting a child’s personal information.

How can a Parent or Legal Guardian have their Child’s Personal or Account Information Deleted from a TP Website?

A parent or guardian may delete a child’s personal or Account information by following the instructions on the Manage your Account page (http://www.tinyplanets.com/parents/accounts.html) of the website. The information will be deleted promptly. Information may remain in backup storage for a period of time after a deletion request, even though we will not use the information.

How Can a Parent or Guardian Learn of Changes to TP’s Privacy Policy?

TP’s privacy policy may be updated periodically if our practices change or if changes in the law require us to do so. We will notify customers about material changes in our privacy policy by e-mail or by posting a prominent notice on the home page of TP websites. Continued use of the TP websites indicates your acceptance of material changes to TP’s privacy policy.

Inactive Accounts.

The names of users, planets and landscapes are retained for six months to facilitate reactivating an inactive account. Accounts that remain inactive for longer than 12 months will be deleted along with any saved stars, keys, planets, spaceships or cadets.

Thank you for reviewing this privacy policy with your child. We hope you and your child enjoy your experience on the TP websites!

PROTECTING ONLINE PRIVACY.

TP is an online environment for children and their families. Your child must understand the need to protect his or her personal privacy online, including on the TP websites. Please explain this need to your child and instruct your child that any information or content posted online:

• Must not identify your child or your child’s parent(s) or legal guardian(s).
• Must not identify another child or another child’s parent(s) or legal guardian(s).
• Must not be harmful to others.

To obtain information about protecting online privacy please visit the Federal Trade Commission’s resource page for parents and children at http://www.onguardonline.gov/topics/kids-privacy.aspx.

TYPES OF ACCOUNTS.

TP offers two types of accounts: A free account and a premium account for premium services. A free account permits children to participate for free in certain activities on the TP website or its hosted accounts. A premium account must be purchased by a child’s parent or legal guardian. It enables players to engage in the same activities as a free account as well as in additional activities, which give them more opportunities to earn virtual currency (“Stars”), which can be used to purchase virtual goods. Stars can be used to purchase toys for interacting with a furry alien pal, space station décor, space ship parts, and planet landscapes. Premium accounts are purchased via a completed credit card transaction by a parent or legal guardian. This transaction serves as your consent for your child to participate in premium activities, and to disclose limited personal information that may be requested for those activities. TP reserves the right to modify or discontinue any of these activities or other activities on the website not listed here. TP also reserves the right to add other activities to either type of account in the future and will notify parents as necessary.

PERSONAL NATURE OF LOGIN-INFORMATION.

Your log-in information may not be shared with anyone else and may only be used by you. By using the TP website you agree to maintain the confidentiality of your log-in information. You also agree not to use another user’s login-in information. You agree to notify us immediately upon becoming aware of the loss or unauthorized use of your log-in information.

OBLIGATION OF PARENT(S) OR LEGAL GUARDIAN(S).

TP requires that a parent or legal guardian supervise your child when he or she creates a user account – regardless of whether it is a free or premium account.

Premium Accounts. A premium account can only be created by a child’s parent(s) or legal guardian(s). By creating an account for your child you are agreeing that the information you provide is true, accurate, and complete. If TP suspects or has reason to believe that a child’s account was created without the supervision of that child’s parent or legal guardian, or if the registration information is not accurate or otherwise violates these Terms and Conditions or the TP privacy policy (http://www.tinyplanets.com/Parents/privacy.html), your account may be suspended or terminated without notice.
