Public Records
Due to Florida’s broad public records law, e-mail communications to Kids Central are public records and will be made available to the public and media, upon request, unless otherwise exempt. Furthermore, under Florida law, email addresses are public records. If you do not want your email address released in response to a public records request, do not send electronic mail to Kids Central. Instead, contact our office by phone or in writing.

Collection of Personal Information
To engage in certain activities on the site or receive some electronic communications, you may be asked to provide certain information about yourself by filling out and submitting an online form. These activities are completely optional. Depending upon the activity, some of the information that we ask you to provide is identified as mandatory and some as voluntary. If you do not provide the mandatory data with respect to a particular activity, you will not be able to engage in that activity online. Instead, you will need to use a non-web option for contacting Kids Central.

How Your Personal Information Is Used
Kids Central collects your information in order to provide you with requested information or to fulfill other requests. For example, information you provide may be used to send you requested newsletters or to respond to inquiries about services. To make a donation online or purchase event tickets or other products, you will be asked to submit information through PayPal. In those cases, PayPal terms of use will apply. Kids Central may also use information collected through its website for research regarding the effectiveness of the site and marketing and advertising efforts. Information collected may be shared with Kids Central partner agencies or contracted vendors, except as required by law or expressly submitted by you for public display. Your information will never be sold or leased to other organizations.

Protection of Your Personal Information
Kids Central recognizes the importance of safeguarding personal information in our possession from theft, inappropriate use or improper distribution and uses reasonable precautions. It should, however, be recognized that no company can perfectly protect personal information.
