KidShowcase Privacy Policy
Youth-Centered Privacy Commitment
KidShowcase is built to support youth talent discovery while protecting the privacy and safety of our users. We are committed to transparency, parental involvement, and responsible data practices—especially for users under 13.
Information We Collect
Profile Data: Name, age range, interests, achievements, and media uploaded to showcase talent.
Account Data: Email address, login credentials, and parental or mentor contact information (if applicable).
Usage Data: Page visits, interactions, and engagement metrics to improve platform experience.
How We Use Your Information
To display showcase profiles to authorized viewers such as recruiters, coaches, and educators.
To support account management, profile editing, and visibility controls.
To improve platform features and personalize user experience.
Parental Consent & Under-13 Users
For users under 13, parental or guardian consent is required to create and manage a profile. Our onboarding flow includes secure consent capture and visibility settings to ensure compliance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).
Parents can manage profile visibility, sharing permissions, and request data deletion at any time.
Visibility & Sharing Controls
Users (or their guardians) can toggle profile visibility between public and private.
Vanity URLs can be shared externally for outreach, applications, or networking.
Profiles are never indexed by search engines unless explicitly made public.
Data Protection & Security
We use industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including encrypted connections, access controls, and regular audits. While no system is 100% secure, we continuously work to safeguard user information.
Third-Party Services
KidShowcase may integrate with trusted third-party services (e.g., video hosting, analytics) to enhance functionality. These services are vetted for privacy compliance and do not receive personal data without consent.
Data Access & Deletion
Users or guardians may request access to personal data or deletion of their profile by contacting our support team. We honor these requests promptly and in accordance with applicable laws.
Updates to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. Significant updates will be communicated through the platform, and continued use implies acceptance of the revised policy.
