The types of information that we collect fall under two general categories: personal information and usage data. “Personal Information” consists of any information which can be used to specifically identify you as an individual, and usage data consists of information collected automatically from your device (e.g., smartphone, tablet) or your web browser. In connection with your use of the Site and Services, we may collect the following Personal Information about you: name, mailing address, email address, phone number, billing information, username, password, and photos, videos and other content you provide. We may also collect the following usage data from you: IP addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks, and information on how you interact with our Site and Services and unaffiliated websites.

Sources of Information Collected about You

KidKraft may obtain Personal Information about you and your usage data from the following categories of sources: directly from you, automatically when you use the Site, from social media and from third parties.

Information Collected Directly from You

We collect information directly from you when you provide it to us, for example when you make a purchase on our website, create an account, join our Gift Registry, participate in a special event, program, survey, sweepstakes or contest or any other promotion contests, engage with us on our various social media platforms, participate in our surveys, send us any feedback, questions, comments, or interact with us in any way. We use your Personal Information to provide information about our business and offer our products or Services to you and products and services of others that we think you may find of interest. Set forth below are details of information we collect from you in certain contexts and our purposes for collecting that information.

Interacting with the Site and KidKraft Blog. You may have the opportunity to respond to surveys or provide other information to us when you visit our Site. Your responses to any of our questions about you will be kept strictly confidential, while other Personal Information about yourself (such as first and last name, address, etc.) may be used to build your profile. Finally, for interactive content and Services such as the KidKraft Blog, where you may choose to have a public profile, we may display your Personal Information to other community members and visitors. You may choose to provide us with your photo(s) or video(s) and by providing us such content, you agree that we may make them available to users of KidKraft’s Site or KidKraft’s blog, including without limitation, if you are selected as the winner of any promotion. Except as otherwise stated in this Privacy Policy, we do not disclose your Personal Information to other users of our Site or Services. If you are concerned that your Personal Information is incorrect, please contact us as detailed below.
Purchase Information. To process purchases, we may require your name, address, phone number, e-mail address and credit card information. Such Personal Information is used primarily to process your order or as otherwise described herein. Credit card transactions are processed through industry standard Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and/or strong encryption (3DES) by a third party, which only uses your Personal Information for that purpose.
Account Registration and Email/Phone Promotions. We require an e-mail address from you when you register for our Services. We use your e-mail for both transactional (e.g., order confirmation, refund and renewal processing) and promotional (e.g., newsletters, new product offerings, special discounts, event notifications, special third-party offers) purposes. E-mail messages we send you may contain code that enables our database to track your usage of the e-mails, including, whether the e-mail was opened and what links (if any) were clicked. If you would rather not receive promotional e-mails from us, please see the section below labelled Opt-Out of Our Email Communications. Please note that even if you opt-out of receiving marketing communications from us, we may need to send you certain service-related communications relating to KidKraft goods and Services, such as product recall information. In accordance with applicable law, we may also contact you by telephone or text message (including to any wireless number you may provide to us) solely in connection with KidKraft’s Services. If you would rather not continue to receive telephone calls or text messages from us, you may change or delete your number from your account preferences page(s) or ask to be removed from our contact list by contacting us as detailed below, making the request during any telephone call, or sending "STOP" to any text message received from us.
Online Survey Data. We may periodically conduct voluntary surveys. If you participate, you may be asked to provide your name, contact information, information about your purchase history on our Site or other sites, and other details about your experience with the KidKraft Site and Services. We encourage our visitors to participate in such surveys because they provide us with important information regarding the improvement of our Site or Services. You may also volunteer for certain surveys that we may offer to our users, and any additional rules regarding the conduct of such surveys will be disclosed to you prior to your participation. We do not link the survey responses to any Personal Information, and all responses are anonymous.
Public Forums. KidKraft participates in discussion boards, such as blogspot.com and YouTube. Any Personal Information that is disclosed in these areas becomes public information and you should exercise caution, particularly with respect to you posting about children, when deciding to disclose any personally identifiable information. Please consult the community guidelines for each discussion board when posting comments on them.

Please be aware that these offers may be presented on pages framed by a KidKraft website. Although these offer pages may have the look and feel of our Site, you will be submitting your information directly to the third-party advertiser. You agree that to the extent permitted by applicable law, we will not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as the result of any such dealings, including, the sharing of the information you supply to us with third-party providers described here, or as the result of the presence of such providers on the KidKraft Site.

You acknowledge and agree that we may disclose information you provide if required to do so by law, at the request of a third party, or if we, in our sole discretion, believe that disclosure is reasonable to (1) comply with the law, requests or orders from law enforcement, or any legal process, such as a subpoena (whether or not such disclosure is required by applicable law); (2) protect or defend KidKraft’s, or a third-party’s, rights or property; or (3) protect someone’s health or safety, such as when harm or violence against any person (including you) is threatened.
To enforce or apply our terms of use, or if we believe disclosure is necessary or reasonable to protect or defend KidKraft’s, or a third-party’s, rights or property, or to protect someone’s health or safety, such as when harm or violence against any person (including you) is threatened.
To fulfill the purpose for which you provided the Personal Information.
To a buyer or other successor in the event of a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or transfer of some or all of KidKraft’s business.

For example, in the event that we are acquired by another company, your information may be part of the assets transferred to the acquiring party. If this occurs, you will be notified if there are any material changes to the way your information is collected or used.
To another party or parties for any other purpose disclosed by us when you provided the Personal Information, or with your consent or authorization.
