New Mie Go Privacy Policy

 

Speech Phonology Place by New Mie Go is a fun and engaging app created by certified speech and language pathologist Dr. Dixon-Thompson, for children ages pre-school and up to develop and learn spoken sounds and emergent phonological awareness skills.  The app offers 5 familiar places that children recognize and feel comfortable in while they learn and practice the given tasks on varying levels with fun graphics and animations.

In this policy, we refer to our visitors younger than age 13 as "Children." We provide this privacy policy to inform parents and other users about our privacy practices for NewmieGo.com, our New Mie Go speech and educational mobile app, and any other New Mie Go online service that links to this Privacy Policy (the "Platform"), as required by the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA").

Please review our full privacy policy below - but here are some key points to know:

  • The Platform does not require Children to provide their name, address, or other contact information in order to play games. We, and third-party service providers, may automatically collect IP address and similar device identifiers from Platform visitors - but only for analytical and other internal-operations purposes.

  • The Platform does collect personal information from parents, teachers, and other adults.

  • Unless you purchase an ad-free subscription, we have advertisements on the Platform, which are served by third-party companies. However, these ads are not targeted to a specific user. (We use only contextual advertising methods and not interest-based advertising methods).

 

What information does New Mie Go collect and how do we use it?  

 

New Mie Go collects "Personal Information" which is information that could reasonably be used to contact you or to identify you as specific person (for example, first and last name, mailing address, email address, or telephone number), and other information, some of which we collect automatically when you visit the Platform.

Personal Information

The Platform does not generally collect name, address, or other contact information from Children, other than the limited circumstances set forth below. However, we, and our third-party service providers, may collect a "Device Identifier" associated with the computer, mobile phone or other device used to access the Platform (for example, an IP address). These Device Identifiers are considered Personal Information for Children. We, and our third-party service providers, use Device Identifier information solely to support internal operations, including operating Platform features and serving contextual ads.

The Platform may occasionally collect a Child's first name and online contact information (typically, an e-mail address) solely for the following purposes:

  • For one-time use of that information. For example, we may answer a question submitted through the Platform or allow a sweepstakes entry. Once we have responded or contacted the Child one time, we delete the online contact information and will not use it to re-contact the Child OR

  • For the sole purpose of protecting the security or integrity of the Platform; taking precautions against liability; responding to judicial process; or providing information to law enforcement agencies or for an investigation on a matter related to public safety.

  • Additionally, in some instances a game may request that a user provide a name (e.g., to identify a particular player in a multi-player game). In those instances, the name provided is only stored locally on the user's device and not collected by us.

  • Please note that we will not condition a Child's participation in a Platform activity on the Child's disclosing more than is reasonably necessary to participate in such activity. We use Personal Information only for the purpose that it was provided and for internal purposes.

  • In some cases, we will collect Personal Information from a parent, teacher, or other adult. We use information collected from adults:

  • To process transactions and provide our products and services;

  • To provide information, products, or services that we believe will interest you or you have agreed to receive, including special offers from us and other companies;

  • To contact you regarding your account, our policies or your use of the Platform;

  • To improve our products and services and for our internal business purposes; and

  • For other purposes disclosed at the time you provide your information, with your consent, and as described in this Privacy Policy.

Other Information

When you use the Platform, we (and our third-party service providers) may automatically or passively collect certain "Usage Information," such as the browser and operating system you are using, information on how you arrived at the Platform, and all of the areas within our Platform that you visit. We may use Usage Information for a variety of purposes, including enhancing or otherwise improving the Platform and our products and services.
