COLLECTION AND USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION OF CHILDREN UNDER AGE 13
We are committed to protecting the online privacy of children. In accordance with the Children’s Online Privacy
Protection Act (”COPPA”), we will not knowingly collect any personally identifiable information from children under the
age of thirteen (13) without first obtaining parental consent. Prior to providing any personally identifiable information
(your name, email address, address, phone number etc.), children under the age of thirteen (13) must have a parent
or legal guardian complete and return (by email or regular mail) a Parental Consent Form to lisa@drishtibend.com or
Drishti Bend
37 NW Irving Ave | Bend, OR 97703
The consent form states that the child’s “Parent” or “Legal Guardian”, by his or her signature, consents to the
collection and transfer of the child’s personally identifiable information. Consent may be revoked by completing a
“Revocation of Parental Consent Form” and sending it to the email or physical mailing address above. In compliance
with COPPA, We are sensitive about children consulting with parents or guardians before furnishing personal
information or ordering anything online.
It is also our intention to adhere to the Children’s Advertising Review Unit (CARU) Guidelines on Internet advertising
with its special sensitivities regarding solicitations to children under thirteen (13). We encourage parents/guardians to
supervise and join their children in exploring cyberspace.

COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND LAW ENFORCEMENT
We cooperate with government and law enforcement officials and private parties to enforce and comply with the law.
We will disclose any information about you to government or law enforcement officials or private parties as we, in our
sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate to respond to claims and legal process (including without limitation
subpoenas), to protect our property and rights or the property and rights of a third party, to protect the safety of the
public or any person, or to prevent or stop activity we consider to be illegal or unethical. We will also share your
