USE BY PARENTS AND LEGAL GUARDIANS ONLY
TheModelChild website is designed and intended to provide useful information to parents and guardians of child models and aspiring child models (collectively, “child model(s)”). Information about a child model may only be submitted by the child’s parent or legal guardian. Information may not be submitted by child models themselves or by any other person.
Collection and Use of Information by TheModelChild
You can generally view our Site without revealing any personally identifiable information about yourself. However, if you wish to create an account, submit a profile for your child model, sign up for email updates, or take similar actions, you will be required to provide us with certain information about yourself (the parent/guardian) as well as about the child model. You do not need to provide requested information, but in such cases you may not be able to access certain portions of or features of this Website or participate in certain activities.
Certain portions of this website may include “chat,” or “bulletin board,” or discussion room type features, in which you can post comments and information. Other portions of this website allow you to post profile information about yourself as well as about your child model, such as a photo, age, gender, name, modeling experience, and other information you choose to provide. All of this information provided by you is referred to as your “Postings.” This information will appear on publicly accessible portions of the Site. We can not control, and make no representation or guaranty as to how others may use such Posting information, and you agree that we are not responsible for any actions by any third party with such information provided by you. As a result, you should not include in your Postings any information you deem private or sensitive, and you understand and agree that all Postings will be displayed on a section of our Website that is easily accessible to the general public. You agree that the contents of all Postings are non-confidential. We may archive or back-up the contents of our Site from time to time, and so your Postings and/or other information may continue to be saved in our archive even after you have changed or deleted such information. If at some point you choose to remove your Posting, TheModelChild cannot guarantee that someone else hasn’t retained a copy.
Viewing and Modifying Your Account Information and Profile. When creating an account, you decide for yourself how much contact information you wish to display. If you have entered information by creating an account, you may opt to provide additional personally identifiable information in your profile. Providing any additional personally identifiable information beyond what is required to create an account is optional. All users should be aware, however, that when they voluntarily display or distribute personal information (such as their email address or profile), that information can be collected and used by others. This may result in, among other things, unsolicited messages from third parties for which TheModelChild is not responsible.
