THE RETHINK GROUP PRIVACY POLICY
The websites (individually a "Site", and collectively, the "Sites") operated by The reThink Group, Inc. ("RT") are intended to provide resources and tools to assist churches and families help children discover and embrace a growing relationship with Jesus Christ. The Sites include www.rethinkgroup.org, www.whatisorange.org, www.theorangeconference.com, www.myfirstlook.org, www.252basics.org, www.orangeleaders.com, www.campkidjam.com, www.marriedpeople.org, www.familytimes.org, www.amberskyrecords.com, and www.studio252.tv. , among others. Many of the Sites are directed at church leaders, with some aspects directed at parents and families as well (e.g. studio252.tv and amberskyrecords.com). As we encourage our users to explore and interact with the Sites, we also take seriously the obligation to educate users about how to maintain appropriate privacy when using online media. Included in this obligation is a commitment to comply fully with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998. The policy below describes RT's information collection practices for the Sites.
This privacy statement (the "Privacy Policy") applies to all personally identifiable information (collectively, "Personal Data") and other information that is collected by RT through the Sites. Please review this Privacy Policy carefully before using the Sites. By using any Site, you consent to these practices.
What Information Do We Collect?
We collect Personal Data from you when you subscribe to our curriculum, register for certain programs and newsletters, and when you voluntarily choose to provide such information such as when you purchase products or otherwise enter your Personal Data on the Sites. Wherever we collect Personal Data we make an effort to provide a link to this Privacy Policy.
By voluntarily providing us with Personal Data, you are consenting to our use of it in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you provide Personal Data to us via a Site, you acknowledge and agree that such Personal Data may be transferred from your current location to the offices and servers of RT and the authorized third parties referred to herein for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.
Information Collected from Children: The studio252.tv Site offers children the opportunity to sign up for the Site and create a "StudioID" and password. In this initial registration process, we directly collect from child users a parent's email address, the child's account name, and the child's password. We do not collect the child's personal name. The studio252.tv Site requires child users to provide a parent's valid email address in order to register on the website. We use this information to send the parent a message that can be used to activate the studio252.tv account, to notify the parent about our privacy practices, to send the parent communications either about studio252.tv accounts or about features of the Site, and for the other purposes described in this Privacy Policy. The child's account is not activated until the parent completes this registration process. The parent's email address is correlated with the "StudioID" user name. Parents are required to approve all changes to the account and are given access to view all information correlated with the "StudioID," including analytics regarding what the child has viewed on the Site. Children may vote for content they like and otherwise interact with the Site through their "StudioID." Parents may at any time cancel the child's account and ask that RT remove Personal Data associated with their child's "StudioID.".
Other Collection of Personal Data: So that RT may improve its products and provide you with efficient customer service, from time to time, RT may request information, including Personal Data, about you and your organization. Information we may collect includes Personal Data such as names, postal addresses and email addresses, demographic information such as age, gender, and zip code, and information regarding the demographics or your organization. We also may collect non-personally identifiable technical data such as your browser type, IP address, domain, access times, installation data, error and other use codes, and referring web site address.
Posting Content: Certain sections of the studio252.tv Site offer families the opportunity to upload their images, videos, stories, and other content to share with other users of the Site. The parent is required to log in to the Site to upload any such content, which is stored and displayed in connection with the designated "StudioID." Children are not permitted to upload such content themselves. You acknowledge by uploading such content that you own copyright to the content uploaded, that other users of the Site are permitted to view the content, and that RT may use the content on the Site and in promotional and marketing materials related to the Site and RT.
Offers: From time-to-time we may give you the opportunity to opt in to offers from unaffiliated third parties that we deem valuable. If you decide to accept these offers, we will provide your Personal Data to the applicable third party. However, you should note that this Privacy Policy does not apply to Personal Data that you permit us to give to unaffiliated third parties. Any information users give to another party is governed by the rules of that party's privacy policy, which may differ from this Privacy Policy. RT is not responsible for information given to other parties. Please review their privacy policies prior to providing any information to third parties.
Log Files: We use IP addresses to analyze trends and use of content, administer the Sites, evaluate content of and for RT curriculum and products, track user movements and interaction with content in the Sites, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to Personal Data and are not themselves considered Personal Data.
Visitors From Outside of the US: The Sites and the servers upon which the Sites are hosted are located in the United States. All matters and material related to the Sites is governed by the laws of the State of Georgia in the United States. Any Personal Data that users outside of the U.S. provide via the Sites will be transferred to the United States, and by visiting the Sites and submitting Personal Data, you authorize this transfer.
Aggregate Information: We may occasionally generate reports or other information for advertisers containing aggregate information about our users such as demographics and online usage trends. This allows us to provide content and advertiser offers that are most relevant and beneficial to our users. Except as otherwise disclosed herein, we will not include any Personal Data in these reports and will not link the aggregated data to Personal Data.
Sharing and Disclosing Your Personal Data: In addition to the disclosures of Personal Data described above, there are certain circumstances in which we may share your Personal Data with certain third parties without further notice to you, as set forth below:

This Privacy Policy does not apply to information that may be collected by such third party site.
