Still with me? 🙋‍♀️

Compliance with children’s online privacy protection act 👧🏻

Protecting the privacy of the very young is especially important. For that reason, I never collect or maintain information at my Site from those I actually know are under 13. I do make jewellery for kids, but it is assumed that this jewellery will be bought by adults or those over the age of 13.

Curlicue NZ has the discretion to update this privacy policy at any time. When I do, I will post a notification on the main page of my Site. I encourage Users to frequently check this page for any changes to stay informed about how I am helping to protect the personal information I collect. You acknowledge and agree that it is your responsibility to review this privacy policy periodically and become aware of modifications.
