The Scratch Privacy Policy was last updated: May 23, 2018

</p>
<p className="intro">
We made Scratch so people like you could create projects,
share ideas, and build a community. To make this happen,
we collect some information for our users. The Scratch Team
understands how important privacy is to our community,
especially kids and parents. We wrote this privacy policy
to explain what information we collect, how we use it,
and what we&#39;re doing to keep it safe. If you have any
questions regarding this privacy policy, you can{' '}
<a href="/contact-us">contact us</a>.
Scratch understands how important privacy is to our
community, especially kids and parents. We wrote this
Privacy Policy to explain what information we collect
through our website (scratch.mit.edu) (the &#34;Site&#34;),
how we use, process, and share it, and what we&#39;re doing
to keep it safe. It also tells you about your rights and
choices with respect to your information, and how you can{' '}
<a href="/contact-us">contact us</a> if you have any
questions or concerns.
</p>
<p className="callout">
Please do not share personal contact information, such as
your name, physical address, email address, phone number,
or anything else that can be used to make contact outside
of the Scratch website. Please report projects, comments,
or forum posts that contain this kind of information so
the Scratch team can remove it, and please remind the
author of our policy.
If you would like to build projects with Scratch without
submitting any Personal Information to us, you can download
the <a href="/download">Scratch Offline Editor</a>. Projects
created in the <a href="/download">Scratch Offline Editor</a>
{' '}are not accessible by the Scratch Team, and using the
offline editor does not disclose any personally identifying
information to Scratch unless you upload these projects to
the Scratch online community.

<h3>What information does the Scratch Team collect about me?</h3>
<dt>Account Information: </dt>
<dd>
In order to build projects or comment on other users&#39; projects,
you need to make an account. During account creation, we ask you
for a username, your country, birth month and year, gender, and
your email address (or your parent or guardian&#39;s email address if
you are under 13 years old). We ask that you select a user name
that does not disclose your real name or other information that
could identify you. Other users can see your username and country,
but not your age, gender, or email address.
</dd>
<dt>User-generated Content: </dt>
<dd>
All of your Scratch projects, comments, and forum posts are stored
on the Scratch servers. Other users can see your shared projects,
comments, and forum posts, along with your username. Because the
Scratch Team is responsible for moderation, we have access to all
content stored on the Scratch website, including unshared projects.
If you prefer to work on projects in complete privacy, you can use
either the <a href="/download">Scratch 2</a>{' '}
or <a href="/scratch_1.4">Scratch 1.4</a> offline editor.
</dd>
<dt>Usage Information: </dt>
<dd>
When you use Scratch, our servers will automatically store a limited
amount of information about how you use the website. This information
includes a number that identifies your computer (the IP address), which
pages you visited, and what browser you are using.
</dd>
<dt>Google Analytics: </dt>
<dd>
We also collect some data on where you click and which parts of the
site you visit using Google Analytics. This &#34;click data&#34; helps us figure
out ways to improve the website. Information collected and processed by
Google Analytics includes the user&#39;s IP address, network location, and
geographic location. Google Analytics acquires all its information
directly from the user, by installing a cookie (see below) on your
computer, if you have enabled JavaScript. Scratch does not share any
information it collects with Google, and Google does not collect any
personal identifying information about you.
</dd>
<dt>Cookies: </dt>
<dd>
When you log in, the Scratch website asks your browser to put an http
&#34;cookie&#34; on your computer. The cookie is actually a small text file
that our site can send to your browser for storage on your computer.
This allows the website to remember that you are logged in when you
go to a different page.
<h3>What personal information does the Scratch Team collect about me?</h3>
<p>
For the purpose of this Privacy Policy, “Personal
Information” means any information relating to an
identified or identifiable individual. We obtain
Personal Information relating to you from various
sources described below.
</p>
<p>
Where applicable, we indicate whether and why you must
provide us with your Personal Information, as well as
the consequences of failing to do so. If you do not
provide Personal Information when requested, you may not
be able to benefit from our Site if that information is
necessary to provide you with the service or if we are
legally required to collect the information.
</p>
<dt>Account Information</dt>
<dd>
In order to share projects, create studios, or post
comments, you need to make an account. During account
creation, we ask you for a username, your country, birth
month and year, gender, and your email address (or your
parent or guardian&#39;s email address if you are under
16 years old). We ask that you select a username that does
not disclose your real name or other information that
could identify you. Other users can see your username
and country, but not your age, gender, or email address.
</dd>
<dt>User-generated Content</dt>
<dd>
We collect any information that you provide to us when
you create Scratch projects (including unshared
projects), write comments, or post on our forums.
</dd>
<dt>Communications</dt>
<dd>
If you contact us directly, we may receive additional
information about you. For example, when you contact our
Customer Support Team, we may receive your name, email
address, phone number, the contents of a message or
attachments that you may send to us, and other
information you choose to provide.
</dd>
<dt>
Personal Information We Collect Automatically From Your
Use of the Site
</dt>
<dd>
When you use Scratch, we and our third-party service
providers collect information about you and your device
through automated means, such as cookies and web server
logs. By using Scratch, you consent to the placement of
cookies and similar technologies in your browser in
accordance with this Privacy Policy. The information
collected in this manner includes your IP address,
network location, what browser you are using, device IDs
and characteristics, operating system version, language
preferences, referring URLs, and information about the
usage of our site.
</dd>
<dd>
We use this information, for example, to ensure that the
site functions properly, to determine how many users
have visited certain pages, or to prevent fraud. We use
IP address information to derive your approximate
location. We also work with analytics providers, such
as Google Analytics, which use cookies and similar
technologies to collect and analyze information about
use of the site and report on activities and trends.
These services may also collect information about the
use of other websites, apps, and online resources. You
can learn more about Google’s practices by going to{' '}
<a href="https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/">
https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/</a>.
</dd>
<dd>
If you do not want information collected through the use
of cookies, most browsers allow you to automatically
decline cookies or be given the choice of declining or
accepting the transfer to your computer of a particular
cookie (or cookies) from a particular site. You may also
wish to refer to{' '}
<a href="http://www.allaboutcookies.org/manage-cookies/index.html">
http://www.allaboutcookies.org/manage-cookies/index.html</a>.
If, however, you do not accept cookies, you may
experience some inconvenience in your use of Scratch.
