ELIGIBILITY

By accessing or using the Services, you represent and warrant to Tangible Play that (i) you are of legal age to form a binding contract, or, if you are a minor, you have your parent’s permission to access or use the Services, and your parent has read and agrees to these Terms on your behalf; (ii) all information you provide is accurate, current and complete; (iii) you will maintain the accuracy and completeness of such information; and (iv) if you are accepting these on behalf of an institution, school, company or other legal entity, you have the authority to bind that institution, school, company or legal entity to these Terms.

CHILDREN AND OUR SERVICES

While our Products are aimed to be used by children of varying ages, some of our Services (including the Website and any Accounts, as defined below) are intended to be used only by parents, legal guardians and/or teachers over the age of 18.

In order to access certain features of the Services and to post any User Content (as defined below) on or through the Services, a parent, legal guardian or teacher must register to create an account (“Account”) on the Website. By creating an Account, you represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years of age. Tangible Play reserves the right to suspend or terminate your Account if any information provided during the registration process or thereafter proves to be inaccurate, not current or incomplete. It is your responsibility not to disclose your Account credentials to anyone. You will immediately notify Tangible Play of any unauthorized use of your Account.

In accordance with Federal Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA), we will never knowingly solicit, nor will we accept, personally identifiable information from users known to be under 13 years of age.

If a school and/or teacher (the “Educational Institution”) with students that are under 18 years of age uses our Services and provides us with personally identifiable information about its students in order to create user profiles for each of its students, such teacher must first obtain written consent from each student’s parent and/or legal guardian to submit such personally identifiable information to us and use such personally identifiable information in the Services. We use that information to provide the Services to the Educational Institution, consistent with our Privacy Policy. Each Educational Institution acknowledges and agrees that it will not use the Services in any way to collect personally identifiable information from users known to be under 13 years of age.

Each Educational Institution shall also indemnify and hold Tangible Play harmless from any and all claims that arise from (i) failure to use our Services as intended or (ii) failure to comply with the Child Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA), the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) or any applicable law.

You represent and warrant that you own or otherwise control all of the rights to the User Content that you post; that the User Content is accurate and that use of the User Content you supply does not violate this policy and will not cause injury to any person or entity. Tangible Play has the right but not the obligation to monitor and edit or remove any activity or User Content. Tangible Play takes no responsibility and assumes no liability for any User Content posted by you or any third party.
