from other unique users of the Site. We collect
information in two ways: at registration and with

child's account, edit account information, and help
manage their child's personal information. We will
continually review Quit-Smoking-Patch.com privacy policies to
ensure our compliance with the latest children's online
privacy protection regulations. We encourage parents and guardians to spend
time online with their children and to participate and
monitor the online activities of their children. No
information should be submitted to, or posted at, the
Quit-Smoking-Patch.com site by a visitor under 13 years of age
without the consent of the child's parent or guardian.
