Thank you for visiting www.perfectstride.net and www.funleaguegames.com, which is operated by Funleague Inc. (“Funleague”). Funleague is committed to complying fully with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998. Funleague provides this Privacy Policy summarizing our online information practices and explaining the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used. We urge kids to check with their parents before entering information on any website and we urge parents to discuss with their kids restrictions regarding the online release of personal information to anyone they don’t know.
This Privacy Policy applies only to personally identifiable information collected on www.perfectstride.net and www.funleaguegames.com (the “Site”) and does not apply to any other information collected by Funleague and its affiliated entities through any other means or on other websites. Funleague and its affiliated entities are collectively referred to in this Privacy Policy as “Funleague,” “we” or “us.”
Funleague Inc. is committed to providing a fun, safe and secure Site for people of all ages. We are dedicated to safeguarding all personal information collected online and to helping our visitors learn how to exercise control over personal information while exploring the Internet. Because many visitors to the Site are children, we make efforts to ensure that children access only the content that is appropriate for them. In addition, we employ special measures to help children protect their privacy while online. We do not ask children to disclose more personal information than is necessary for them to participate in a particular activity, and we take steps to prevent children from posting contact information.
As we continue to offer our visitors new and different types of content and services, we may modify our practices from time to time.
What Information Do We Collect?
At www.perfectstride.net, or www.funleaguegames.com we do not collect personally identifiable information on our Site from you unless you voluntarily provide it to us when you visit our Site, including when you participate in activities on our Site like sweepstakes, contests, games, informational and promotional offers, message boards, chat rooms, profile pages, social community features, or other public forums, and when you provide information to our customer service representatives.
Funleague Inc. does not condition a kid’s participation in any of our online activities on the disclosure of more information than is reasonably necessary to participate in the activity.
For some activities, such as online polls or surveys, we may ask visitors to provide information that is not personally identifiable. This might include first name only, city or state of residence, age, or gender.
For some other activities, such as entering sweepstakes and subscribing to our e-mail newsletters, we may ask visitors to provide a first name and e-mail address.
For other activities, such as sending an e-mail to a friend, we may also ask for personal information about other people. This is usually limited to a first name and e-mail address. E-mail addresses collected to send an e-mail to a friend are deleted immediately when the requested postcard or e-mail is transmitted.
For some limited activities, promotions, or offers that are intended for parents and/or adults, we may ask a parent or adult to provide his/her name, address, e-mail address, telephone number, fax number, credit card information and/or information about their interests in and use of various products, programs, and services.
In order to provide customer service support for some features of our Site or to improve our products or services, we may ask visitors to our Site to provide a first name, email address and limited information that is relevant to a customer service inquiry.
Visitors who make purchases through the Site or participate in certain premium interactive features will be required to provide their full name, billing and mailing addresses, e-mail address, telephone number and a credit card number. If an order is being shipped to a third party, we will also need the recipient’s name and mailing address. Before collecting information in connection with an online purchase or other transaction, we will verify the validity of the purchaser’s credit card.
When a child under the age of 13 participates in another ongoing activity that requires the collection, retention, and use of personal information, we will also ask for a parent’s e-mail address so that we can notify the parent that we have received personal information from their child. We do not knowingly collect names and e-mail addresses from children under the age of 13 for these types of activities without notifying the parent via e-mail and giving the parent the option to remove their child’s e-mail address from the applicable database for that activity.
For specific one-time requests we receive from visitors, e-mail addresses are collected and used only in connection with the specific one-time request. For example, for sweepstakes and contests, e-mail addresses are collected for the purpose of entering the online sweepstakes or contest on a one-time basis and are used to notify winners of the sweepstakes or contest once by e-mail. Winners may be required to return a completed prize acceptance form contained in the notification e-mail by facsimile, Canadian or U.S. mail within a designated time period (along with the signature of a parent or legal guardian for all minors).
In connection with registration for certain interactive online games or features on the Site, we may ask users to provide certain information that is not personally identifiable such as city or state of residence, date of birth and gender. For children under the age of 13, we will ask for the child’s e-mail address, which will not be stored in a retrievable form but instead using a “hash” or unique code generated from the e-mail address that will allow us on a one-time basis, for example, to respond to an inquiry from the child regarding a lost user name or password.
We also may ask for a parental email address for any child under the age of 13 who registers in order to provide notice to the parent that his/her child would like to participate in registration for certain interactive features.
For individuals age 13 and over, we may collect and store an e-mail address to use in the case of forgotten passwords and to send newsletters and/or marketing information for which the individual has consented.
When visitors come to our Site, we also may collect some non-personally identifiable information such as the current Internet protocol address and the type of computer operating system you are using (e.g., Microsoft Windows or Mac OS), the type of browser you are using (e.g., Safari, Internet Explorer), the domain name of the Internet service provider (e.g., America Online, NetZero, Road Runner), your activities while visiting our Site, your activities while playing games or utilizing services on our Site (for example, which Web pages you viewed or which games you played), and the advertisements you have been shown.
How Do We Use the Information We Collect?
We use visitors’ personal information collected in connection with child-directed activities for internal purposes only, such as enabling visitors to enter our online contests or sweepstakes, to subscribe to an online newsletter, to provide customer service, and/or for the purposes for which you provided the information.
We may also use personal information provided in connection with a purchase on our Site or by parents or adults in other sections of our Site to send them, by e-mail or direct mail, notification of special offers or sale events. These notifications are sent only to those visitors to the Site who ask to receive them.
We use parents’ e-mail addresses to notify them when we have received personal information such as e-mail addresses from their children and to give parents the option to remove their child’s name from our lists. We use information we collect about others only to enable visitors to our Site to communicate with those other people, for example, by sending them e-mail or to ship items purchased on our Site.
We do not keep any personal information we obtain through a contest or sweepstakes until we have successfully selected a winner(s), awarded the prize(s), and administered the contest or sweepstakes. We only use the e-mail addresses of subscribers to our Site’ e-mail newsletters to send them the requested newsletter(s). Each newsletter also includes instructions for subscription removal via return e-mail.
We never sell, rent, or otherwise share our visitors’ personal information with third parties without appropriate consent. Sometimes, we use third party vendors, agents or contractors to provide services to our visitors, such as helping us conduct a sweepstakes or contest promotion, verifying eligibility of winners, sending prizes to winners, shipping items purchased on our Site, or providing customer service related to activities on the Site. In these cases, we require the third party vendor, agent or contractor to keep the information confidential and to use it only for the specific services they are performing.
We may on occasion combine information we collect through our Site with information that we collect from other sources.
We sometimes use non-personally identifiable information that we collect to improve the design and content of our Site, and to improve our visitors’ experience on the Site. We also may aggregate, use and share this information with third parties to analyze Site usage, as well as to offer products, programs, or services.
We may disclose personally identifiable information in response to legal process, for example, in response to a court order or a subpoena. We also may use and disclose such information in response to a law enforcement agency’s request, or where we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of our terms of use, to verify or enforce compliance with the policies governing our Site and applicable laws, or as otherwise required or permitted by law or consistent with legal requirements.
We may transfer personally identifiable information about you if we or one of our business units are acquired by, sold to, or merged with another entity.
We will not use or transfer personally identifiable information in ways that are materially different from the ones described above without also providing parental notification of such practices and obtaining consent for any materially different uses.

Collection of Information by Third-Party Site, Ad Servers and Sponsors
Our Site may contain links to other Web sites, including those of sponsors and advertisers, whose information practices may be different from ours.
