Course 1 - "COPPA Compliance Strategies for Every Business Model"

"COPPA Compliance Strategies for Every Business Model" - COURSE 1
Presented by Shai Samet of the kidSAFE Seal Program

Ever wondered if and when you need to have an age screen on your child-friendly site or mobile app?  Or what is the best approach for account registration and parental consent procedures?  What about whether you should have a separate parent section within your website or mobile app?  And how do you properly gate-out children from these areas?
 
Plus, do the answers to these questions differ depending on factors such as: (1) what type of service you're offering (e.g., a game site, virtual world, educational service, family utility, non-profit site, etc.), (2) which platform you're offering it on (e.g., web, PC, mobile, tablet, etc.), or (3) who your targeted demographic is (e.g., tweens, preschoolers, parents, families, educators, etc.).
 
These questions and more are answered in this one-of-a-kind, highly practical COPPA compliance webinar presented by kidSAFE.  You won't find this type of information anywhere else.

Course 3 - "What is Personal Information under COPPA?"

COURSE 3 - "What is Personal Information under COPPA?"
Presented by Shai Samet of the kidSAFE Seal Program



Are you unsure what types of children's data constitute "personal information" and trigger COPPA's requirements?  When are photos or audio files considered "personal"?  What about geo-location information?  And in what scenarios would a screen name rise to the level of "online contact information"?   Plus, are there creative ways to collect these types of information in anonymized form without triggering COPPA? 
 
In this course, Shai Samet (kidSAFE Founder) answers these questions and more in yet another timely and highly practical COPPA training webinar.  Shai provides a methodical and detailed walk-through of the various elements of data treated as "personal" under COPPA, along with practical techniques and illustrations on how such data can be collected in compliance with COPPA (or in avoidance of COPPA).

Course 4 - "Processing Verifiable Parental Consent under COPPA"

Course 4 - Processing Verifiable Parental Consent under COPPA
Presented by Shai Samet of the kidSAFE Seal Program



If COPPA applies to you, you already know (with a few exceptions) that you must obtain "verifiable parental consent" before collecting or using a child's personal information online.  But how do you go about actually processing "verifiable consent"?  Which methods are acceptable under COPPA and which ones are not?  What are the differences and drawbacks for each?  And what about more creative techniques, such as using a parent's iTunes password to process consent or having a teacher or school provide consent in lieu of a parent? 
 
In this course, Shai Samet (kidSAFE founder) answers these questions and more in yet another timely and highly practical COPPA training webinar.   Shai describes in detail the various consent methods currently allowed under COPPA, the operational procedures required for each method, and the limitations of each method.  Shai also presents various screenshot illustrations of each method, and conducts audience polls during the course to help identify and share industry trends.
