ATTENTION PARENTS OR LEGAL GUARDIANS: PROTECTING CHILDREN’S PRIVACY
Nintendo is committed to protecting your child’s privacy. The Nintendo 3DS System is directed to a general audience, but where Nintendo has actual
knowledge that a user is under the age of 13, Nintendo complies with the U.S. Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”), which governs how
operators of websites and online services collect, use, and disclose PII from children under the age of 13 on the Internet.
You can nd information about how we collect, use, and disclose PII from users, including children under 13 years of age, in the sections above titled
INFORMATION COLLECTED, HOW INFORMATION IS USED, DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION, MARKETING AND ADVERTISING, and NINTENDO ZONE. You
have the option of consenting to Nintendo’s collection and use of your child’s PII without consenting to the disclosure of that information with third
parties. In addition, Nintendo is prohibited from conditioning your child’s participation in an activity on the child’s disclosing more personal informa-
tion than is reasonably necessary to participate in such activity.
You may review and have deleted your child’s PII, and refuse to permit further collection or use of your child’s PII, by contacting the Nintendo 3DS
Privacy Policy Administrator via email at privacypolicy@noa.nintendo.com, by phone at 1-888-977-7627, or by regular mail at Nintendo of America
Inc., Attn: Online Privacy Policy Administrator, 4600 150th Avenue NE, Redmond, WA 98052, U.S.A. Before responding to your request to review PII
collected from your child, Nintendo may require that you follow reasonable procedures to help verify your identity as the child’s parent and may deny
any request that fails to follow these procedures. If you choose to have your child’s PII deleted or refuse to permit further collection or use of your
child’s PII, your child will be able to continue using the Nintendo 3DS System, except your child’s use of certain features of the Nintendo 3DS Service,
Software, and Content that require the disclosure of certain PII may be limited or unavailable.
Please note that third-party game publishers, application providers, and content providers may collect, use, and disclose your child’s personal
information through the Nintendo 3DS System when your child uses the third-party’s Software or Content. Nintendo is not responsible for the
privacy practices of these third parties, and we recommend that you review their privacy notices before your child provides or exchanges any PII
through third-party Software or Content.
We strongly recommend that you supervise your children’s use of the Nintendo 3DS System, Nintendo 3DS Service, Software, and Content at all
times. You can restrict your children’s use of certain features of the Nintendo 3DS System by setting up the Nintendo 3DS Parental Controls. For a
detailed description of the Nintendo 3DS System wireless communication features and Parental Controls, please see the Nintendo 3DS System Opera-
tions Manual included with your Nintendo 3DS System. This Operations Manual is also available at support.nintendo.com.
SECURITY
We have established reasonable safeguards to help ensure the security, integrity and privacy of the PII submitted or collected from the Nintendo 3DS
System, Nintendo 3DS Service, Software, or Content. We also have implemented reasonable security measures to help protect information under our
control against loss, misuse or alteration. While we strive to safeguard your PII, no data storage system or transmission of data over the Internet or
any other public network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
Please note that information collected by third parties, including a Third Party Content Provider, may not have the same security protections as
information you submit to us, and we are not responsible for protecting the security of such information.
If you install unauthorized applications or content on your Nintendo 3DS System or make unauthorized modications to the Nintendo 3DS System,
your PII may be compromised. Nintendo is not responsible for any data collection, use or disclosure from any Nintendo 3DS System with unauthor-
ized applications or applications installed.
OPTING-OUT OF INFORMATION COLLECTION
You may use the Nintendo 3DS System without disclosing PII; however, some features and applications may not be available to you. You can opt-out
of the collection of PII by turning o wireless communications on your Nintendo 3DS System. You also may be able to opt-out of some types of
information collection through the Nintendo 3DS System settings and Parental Controls.
DISABLING AND REMOVING INFORMATION STORED ON YOUR NINTENDO 3DS SYSTEM
Certain PII about you that you disclose when communicating with third parties or using your Nintendo 3DS System may be stored on your Nintendo
