Children's privacy online

At VinonaStringNetwork, we understand that children's privacy is important. Except in connection with surveys and contests, we do not monitor the age of our user audience. However, if you are under the age of 16, you should not submit personal identifying information to VinonaStringNetwork without the consent of your parent or guardian.

If you are a parent and want to limit your children's access to material you believe may be harmful to them, you may want to look into commercially available hardware, software and filtering devices. If you are interested in learning about these protections, information is available at http://www.worldvillage.com/wv/school/html/control.htm and other similar sites. Remember, your privacy and that of your children is important to us, we will not knowingly give out your information without contacting you. At VinonaGroupServicesUSA, (owner and operator of VinonaStringNetwork), your privacy and safety is our priority.

Keeping Children Safe

At VinonaStringNetwork, we recognize that social network providers must be vigilant in protecting the safety and privacy of children online. We do not knowingly market to or solicit information from children under the age of 16.

VinonaStringNetwork strongly supports educating parents and young Internet users on safe viewing practices and we offer a variety of tools to help children and parents avoid encountering objectionable content or communications while using our network.

Regrettably, there are those who use the Internet to view, store and distribute child pornography (or who engage in other types of illegal activity involving children). Child pornography is subject to severe criminal penalties and using the VinonaStringNetwork to view, store or distribute it violates our membership guidelines and privacy policy. The VinonaStringNetwork may not be used by members or prospective members in any manner for the storage, transmission or dissemination of images ( videos, and photos) containing child pornography and we will report any instances of such activity of which we become aware to the appropriate law enforcement authorities.

We want to help make the Internet safe for everyone. If you have a complaint about child pornography, the soliciting of children for sexual activity, or any other illegal or inappropriate activity involving children on a VinonaStringNetwork, you can report it to us by sending an email to contact@vinonastring.com. If you do send us a report pertaining to child pornography, please include the words "Child Porn" in the subject line of your email. You can also make a report directly to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children through its CyberTipline located at www.cybertipline.org.
