Privacy Policy

The Playbook (“we,” “us,” “our,” or “The Playbook”) knows that you care about how your Personal Information is used and shared, and we take your privacy seriously.
We are committed to protecting the privacy of children who use our site and applications.

Please read the following to learn more about how we use your Personal Information. By visiting, accessing or using the https://theplaybook.fun website, and any other linked pages, features, content, or application services (including mobile applications) offered by The Playbook in connection therewith (collectively, “The Playbook”), or using any of our services, you acknowledge that you accept the practices and policies outlined in this Privacy Policy.

What Does This Privacy Policy Cover?

This Privacy Policy covers The Playbook’s treatment of personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) that The Playbook gathers when you access The Playbook and when you use The Playbook’s services. This policy does not apply to the practices of companies that THE PLAYBOOK does not own or control (including any third-party products or services used for logging into THE PLAYBOOK or that are integrated with the THE PLAYBOOK), or to individuals that THE PLAYBOOK does not employ or manage. THE PLAYBOOK may contain links to other sites. THE PLAYBOOK is not responsible for the privacy policies and/or practices on other sites. When linking to another site a user should read the privacy policy stated on that site.

What Personal Information Does The Playbook Collect?

The information we gather from users enables us to provide, personalize and improve our services, and allows our users to set up a user account and profile that can be used to personalize their experience on THE PLAYBOOK and interact with other users through the site. In connection with THE PLAYBOOK, we request and display some Personal Information to other users and visitors of THE PLAYBOOK, which allows users to identify one another. We collect the following types of information from our users:

Personal Information You Provide To Us:

During the account registration process, we receive and store the following information: full name of the parent or guardian, full name of the child, parent’s email address, a password for the parental account, and the child’s birthdate (to verify their age).

In addition, children choose an “avatar” and username (“nickname”) which will represent them on the service. We encourage children to use our anonymous nickname generator

For contests and events, we typically require only the information necessary for a child to participate, such as first name (to distinguish among family members) and parent email address (to notify the parent where required by law). We only contact the parent for more personalized information (such as a mailing address) for prize-fulfillment purposes when the child wins the contest or events.

THE PLAYBOOK does not intentionally collect any Personal Information from children other than the information set out above. However, as part of the functionality of our service, we allow child accounts to upload certain content to the site, including photos, videos, and comments. We take measures to prevent children from communicating Personal Information through these features, but we cannot guarantee the effectiveness of these measures. If you use these features to disclose personally identifiable information, you should be aware that such information could be read, collected, or used by other users and/or third parties. You agree not to provide any personally identifiable information through these features, and we are not responsible for any personally identifiable information that you provide using these features.

You can choose not to provide us with certain information, but then you may not be able to create an account or take advantage of many of THE PLAYBOOK’s special features. The Personal Information you provide is used for such purposes as obtaining parental consent as set forth above, providing parents with notice of our privacy practices, answering questions, improving the content of THE PLAYBOOK, responding to your requests for certain information, products and services, attribution for content you submit, customizing the advertising and content you see, allowing you to communicate with other users, and communicating with you about THE PLAYBOOK’s products and services, including specials and new features.

Personal Information Collected Automatically:

• • We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with THE PLAYBOOK or use our services. THE PLAYBOOK automatically receives and records information on our server logs from your browser including your IP address, cookie information, browser information, operating system, timezone, device ID, the pages you request, and the actions and path you take on THE PLAYBOOK.
• • Generally, our service automatically collects usage information, such as the numbers and frequency of visitors to THE PLAYBOOK and how they use its various components. THE PLAYBOOK only uses this data in aggregate form, that is, as a statistical measure, and not in a manner that would identify you personally. This type of aggregate data enables us to figure out how users use parts of THE PLAYBOOK or services so that we can make THE PLAYBOOK appealing to as many users as possible, and improve those services. As part of this use of information, we may provide aggregate information to our partners about how our users, collectively, use THE PLAYBOOK or services. We share this type of statistical data so that our partners also understand how people use THE PLAYBOOK or services, so that they, too, may provide you with an optimal online experience. Again, THE PLAYBOOK never discloses aggregate information to a partner in a manner that would identify you personally.
• • We may receive a confirmation when you open an email from THE PLAYBOOK if your computer or device supports this type of functionality. THE PLAYBOOK uses this confirmation to help us make emails more interesting and helpful and to improve THE PLAYBOOK and our services.

More About Cookies:

• • Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer’s (or other device’s) persistent storage medium (e.g., hard drive) through your browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser and tell us how and when pages in our site are visited and by how many people. We use cookies to enhance visitors’ experiences, to learn more about their use of THE PLAYBOOK and to improve quality.

• • Most browsers have an option for turning off the cookie feature, which will prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, as well as (depending on the sophistication of your browser software) allowing you to decide on acceptance of each new cookie in a variety of ways. We strongly recommend that you leave the cookies activated, however, because cookies enable you to take advantage of some of THE PLAYBOOK’s most attractive features.

Will The Playbook Share Any of The Personal Information It Receives?

Personal Information about our users is an integral part of our business. We neither rent nor sell your Personal Information to anyone. To be absolutely clear, we do not and will not sell your, or your child’s data.

With Respect To a Child's Personal Information:

• • THE PLAYBOOK will not send Personal Information about a child to other companies or people, except when: we have a parent’s consent to share the information or we are required to do so to comply with the law, including for example, to comply with a court order or subpoena; to enforce our Terms of Service, or site rules; or to protect the safety and security of our users and site.
• • If THE PLAYBOOK, or substantially all of its assets were acquired, or in the unlikely event that THE PLAYBOOK goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. As set forth below, you acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of THE PLAYBOOK may continue to use your Personal Information as set forth in this policy.

With Respect To Personal Information Other Than a Child's Personal Information:

We share such Personal Information only as described below.

• • Advertisers: We may allow advertisers to choose the demographic information of users who will see their advertisements and you agree that we may use any of the information we have collected from you (including, without limitation, information you may have decided not to show to other users) to select or allow the advertiser to select the appropriate audience for those advertisements. For example, we may allow an advertiser to target an ad to you based on your query history.

In certain situations, these businesses may sell items to you through THE PLAYBOOK. In other situations, THE PLAYBOOK may provide services, or sell products jointly with affiliated businesses. You can easily recognize when an affiliated business is associated with your transaction, and we will share your Personal Information that is related to such transactions with that affiliated business.
• • Service Providers: We engage third party companies and individuals to perform services on our behalf (e.g., software maintenance services, advertising serving technologies, e-mail service providers, delivery services, database management, web analytics, payment processing and other services). These third parties have access to your information so that they may perform these tasks on our behalf and they are prohibited by us from using or disclosing your information for any purpose other than to provide this assistance, except to the extent required by law. We may permit our service providers to use aggregate information which does not identify you or de-identified data for other purposes.
• • Business Transfers: In some cases, we may choose to buy or sell assets. In these types of transactions, user information is typically one of the business assets that are transferred. Moreover, if THE PLAYBOOK, or substantially all of its assets were acquired, or in the unlikely event that THE PLAYBOOK goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of THE PLAYBOOK or its assets may continue to use your Personal Information as set forth in this policy.
• • Protection of THE PLAYBOOK and Others: We may release Personal Information when we believe in good faith that release is necessary to comply with the any applicable law, regulation or other legal requirement; enforce or apply our conditions of use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of THE PLAYBOOK, our employees, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

Except as set forth above, you will be notified when your Personal Information may be shared with third parties, and will be able to prevent the sharing of this information.

When Does The Playbook Obtain Parental Consent?

Content generated by a child

Certain activities on our sites and applications allow children to create or manipulate content (like photos, videos, stories, quizzes, crosswords etc) and save it within THE PLAYBOOK. By registering and creating an account for your child on THE PLAYBOOK, you grant us permission to share your child’s content within THE PLAYBOOK, and to share your child’s content publicly on our social media channels as long as it does not contain Personal Information.

When Will The Playbook E-mail Me?

We may use your contact information to send emails to you about THE PLAYBOOK and other related topics that may be of interest to users of THE PLAYBOOK. You can opt out of these communications by sending us an email at hello@theplaybook.in.

As part of THE PLAYBOOK’s services, you will receive email and other communication relating to your child’s User Submissions. You acknowledge and agree that by posting such User Submissions, THE PLAYBOOK may send you email and other communication that it determines in its sole discretion to be related to your User Submissions.

When Will The Playbook E-mail My Child?

On occasion, in order to respond to a question or request from a child, THE PLAYBOOK may need to ask for the child’s online contact information, such as an email address. THE PLAYBOOK will delete this information immediately after responding to the question or request.

In connection with certain activities or services, we may collect a child’s online contact information, such as an email address, in order to communicate with the child more than once. In such instances we will retain the child’s online contact information to honor the request and for no other purpose such as marketing. One example would be a newsletter that provides occasional updates about an activity. Whenever we collect a child’s online contact information for ongoing communications, we will simultaneously require a parent email address in order to notify the parent about the collection and use of the child’s information, as well as to provide the parent an opportunity to prevent further contact with the child. On some occasions a child may be engaged in more than one ongoing communication, and a parent may be required to “opt-out” of each communication individually.
