Except as permitted by law, before any collection of a child's Personal Information takes place at a website directed to children or where The Law Office off Cia Bruno is knowingly collecting children's Personal Information, the child will be asked to provide his/her parent's or guardian's e-mail address so that The Law Office of Cia Bruno can contact the child's parent or guardian.
The Law Office of Cia Bruno will then send an email (the "Initial Notification") to the parent/guardian indicating, among other things, the information that the child is requested to provide, the intended use(s) of the information and information on how the parent/guardian can, at their election, delete the child's information from our database or records. Upon receipt of the Initial Notification, a parent or guardian may respond back to The Law Office of Cia Bruno to grant his/her consent or to deny consent in which case The Law Office of Cia Bruno will delete the parent/guardian's email address and any other Personal Information, if any, previously obtained for securing parental consent. Upon receipt of the parent/guardian consent, The Law Office of Cia Bruno will send a confirming email to the parent/guardian's email address or take such other action as may be required to verify the consent.
If the Law Office of Cia Bruno desires to use a child's information for purposes other than that for which the parent/guardian consent was previously given, The Law Office of Cia Bruno will not do so without first getting the parent/guardian consent.
