Cookies are pieces of information that we place on your computer to help us accurately understand how many consumers are visiting a particular site, how often they visit that site, what content they are most interested in, and how they prefer to shop for our products. For example, a cookie will allow us to remember certain things based on your Internet Protocol or "IP" address (an IP address is the string of numbers that identifies each sender or receiver of information that is sent across the Internet), such as your login information, the time and duration of your visits, how you navigated through our content and where you exited a particular site.

The GIF tells us the IP address of the computer that fetched our page, the URL of the page the GIF is on, the time the page was viewed, the type of browser used, and can tell us a previously set cookie value. This anonymous information is returned by the clear GIF to DIRTY DINGY DARYL/MUDDY BUDDY PALS/KINGDOM OF GOD/MUDDY PUDDY/ROCK-A-BYE BABY/THEE BEES/HALO TOYS/HEBO and we use this information to accurately count visitors across multiple Halo Toys/HeBo sites and understand how they navigate and use our network of sites.

DIRTY DINGY DARYL/MUDDY BUDDY PALS/KINGDOM OF GOD/MUDDY PUDDY/ROCK-A-BYE BABY/THEE BEES/HALO TOYS/HEBO recognizes that some younger children may not understand some of the information contained on the web site or how the site operates. That is the purpose of the Privacy Statement. Please discuss this statement with your children so that they will better understand how to use the site and the information they may be asked to provide. DIRTY DINGY DARYL/MUDDY BUDDY PALS/KINGDOM OF GOD/MUDDY PUDDY/ROCK-A-BYE BABY/THEE BEES/HALO TOYS/HEBO strongly believes that providing its visitors with accurate and adequate notice about the web site will lead to informed choices and decisions about how to use the site, as well as protect its users' privacy.

DIRTY DINGY DARYL/MUDDY BUDDY PALS/KINGDOM OF GOD/MUDDY PUDDY/ROCK-A-BYE BABY/THEE BEES/HALO TOYS/HEBO may collect and store personal information about children under 13 ("children" or "child") if it is submitted in connection with our website registration and with the parent's verifiable consent. To determine who is younger than 13 years old and whether parental consent is required, we ask all users who wish to register to submit their date of birth. Those users that indicate they are less than 13 years of age are taken through a parental consent process. If given verifiable permission from a parent, Halo Toys/HeBo may collect and store the following types of personal information about a child under 13: name, email address, mailing address, parent's or guardian's name, and parent's or guardian's email address. DIRTY DINGY DARYL/MUDDY BUDDY PALS/KINGDOM OF GOD/MUDDY PUDDY/ROCK-A-BYE BABY/THEE BEES/HALO TOYS/HEBO may also collect demographic information about a child such as the child's date of birth, gender, and other preferences; and, combine such information with the child's personal information. DIRTY DINGY DARYL/MUDDY BUDDY PALS/KINGDOM OF GOD/MUDDY PUDDY/ROCK-A-BYE BABY/THEE BEES/HALO TOYS/HEBO will only collect this information if it is voluntarily submitted to us by the child or parent and provided with the parent's verifiable permission. For information on how we use cookies and other information collection tools, please see our section on “Cookies and Clear GIFs” (above). Once collected, a child's registration information may be used to: (a) allow the child to participate in activities on our site (e.g., contests); and, (b) allow us to send the child promotional materials, including information about new products, contests, features and enhancements, special offers, and other events of interest. We may also use the information for our internal marketing and demographic studies, so that we can constantly improve the products and services we provide our visitors and to better meet their needs. Please note that we are prohibited from conditioning a child's participation in an activity - like contests - on the child's disclosure of more personal information than is reasonably necessary to participate in the activity. This means that if we don't need a specific piece of information (like the child's phone number) to allow the child to participate in a contest, we simply won't ask for it. To read about the steps DIRTY DINGY DARYL/MUDDY BUDDY PALS/KINGDOM OF GOD/MUDDY PUDDY/ROCK-A-BYE BABY/THEE BEES/HALO TOYS/HEBO takes to protect the confidentiality, security, and integrity of children's personal information, please see our section on "Safeguarding Your Personal Information" (above). In some instances, certain portions of our site (e.g., electronic postcards) will allow children under 13 to submit personal information such as their e-mail address without first telling us their age or obtaining their parents' consent. Such portions of our site operate activities or provide services in a way that does not require prior parental consent.
