3) Children’s Privacy & COPPA Compliance

Commitment to Children's Safety

We strictly adhere to the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). Our Site is intended for use by parents and legal guardians, not directly by children under 13.

We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. All registrations, including trials and camp enrollments, must be completed by a parent or legal guardian. By checking the mandatory COPPA consent box on our forms, you affirmatively consent to the collection and use of your child's data strictly for program administration and safety.

Under COPPA, parents and legal guardians have the right to:

  • Review the personal information we have collected about their child.
  • Request the deletion of their child’s personal information.
  • Refuse to allow any further collection or use of the child’s information.

If you believe a child has submitted information to us without parental consent, or if you wish to exercise your data rights, please contact us immediately.
