Room for Tomorrow, Inc.

Kids Have a Point Website Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 4, 2026

This Kids Have a Point Website Privacy Policy explains how Room for Tomorrow, Inc. (“Room for Tomorrow,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), which operates the Website, collects, uses, discloses, and otherwise processes personal information in connection with the Kids Have a Point website at https://kidshaveapoint.com (the “Website”) and related website communications. Kids Have a Point is a Room for Tomorrow podcast featuring conversations with children, including young children about age 5 and older, about what they think. The Website is designed for parents and families, and children may listen with a parent. The Website and podcast are offered for U.S. use only. This Privacy Policy applies to the Website and related Website communications, but not to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, any other third-party platform, or any separate Room for Tomorrow product.

Kids Have a Point is operated by Room for Tomorrow, Inc. This policy applies only to the Kids Have a Point website. Room for Tomorrow’s other websites and products have their own policies, and the Room for Tomorrow corporate website is governed by its own Privacy Policy.

I. WHAT IS PERSONAL INFORMATION?

When we use the term “personal information” in this Privacy Policy, we mean data or information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular natural person or household, or that constitutes “personal data,” “personal information,” or “personally identifiable information” under applicable law.

II. INFORMATION WE COLLECT AND HOW WE USE IT

We collect limited personal information through the Website and related communications. We do not require an account to visit the Website or listen to an episode. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through the Website.

Information collected through guest recording, participation, consent, or production workflows is governed by the separate Kids Have a Point Privacy & Data Retention Notice and Parent/Guardian Consent and Minor Media Release, not this Website Privacy Policy.

Information You Provide

We may collect the following limited categories of personal information when you provide them through the Website or by email:

• Parent or Guardian Interest Information. If an adult uses the “Be on the Show” sign-up form to express interest in having their child appear on the podcast, we collect only the adult’s name and email address. The form is for parents or legal guardians age 18 or older and requires an adult attestation. Please do not include any information about your child, such as the child’s name, age, school, address, photos, recordings, precise location, health information, or other sensitive information, in the form. We use this information only to contact the adult about potential participation. All further steps, including any collection of information about the child, recordings, and formal consents, take place outside the Website and are handled separately under the Parent/Guardian Consent and Minor Media Release and the Kids Have a Point Privacy & Data Retention Notice.
• Updates Subscription Information. Parents and other adult visitors may subscribe to receive updates from Room for Tomorrow through a subscription form that is separate from the “Be on the Show” sign-up form. We collect the subscriber’s email address and any optional name or preferences submitted through this opt-in form. Subscriptions are for adults age 18 or older, and every update will include a clear one-click unsubscribe link. Signing up for updates does not express interest in podcast participation, and submitting the “Be on the Show” form does not subscribe you to updates.
• Correspondence and Requests. We may collect your name, email address and the contents of messages you send to us, including privacy, takedown, withdrawal, safety, media, or general inquiries. Please do not send a child’s last name, school, address, photos, recordings or other unnecessary sensitive information unless specifically requested.
• Guest Participation Information. If a child participates in the podcast, we may collect information from the parent or legal guardian and child as described in the Kids Have a Point Privacy & Data Retention Notice and Parent/Guardian Consent and Minor Media Release, including consent choices, participation communications, recordings, transcripts, production notes, and publication selections.
• Technical and Cookie Information. When you visit the Website, our website host and operational providers may automatically receive limited technical information, such as IP address, browser and device type, pages or files requested, referring URL, and date and time of a request. With your consent, analytics and marketing cookies may also collect information about how you interact with the Website and our marketing. We use this information for security, reliability, measurement, and internal operations, and as described in “Cookies and Similar Technologies” below.
• Podcast Platform and Link Information. The Website does not embed podcast players. It links to Kids Have a Point on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. If you click a link to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or another third-party service, you will leave the Website, and that service may collect information under its own privacy policy. See “Published Episodes and Platform Privacy” below.
• Information from Service Providers. Our website host, podcast host, form provider, email provider, security provider, analytics provider, or marketing provider may process information on our behalf to provide the Website and related communications.
• Please do not submit personal information about a child through the Website. The “Be on the Show” sign-up form collects only the parent’s or guardian’s name and email address. We do not provide child accounts, child-facing comments, chat, uploads, contests, or forms.

Information from Third Parties

We may receive or permit limited personal information to be processed by third parties in connection with the Website, including:

• Website Host and Operational Providers: The Website host and providers supporting security, forms, email, storage, or technical operations may process information needed to provide their services.
• Podcast Host and Distribution Providers: The podcast host and RSS distribution services may process and distribute episode files and associated episode information. Current distribution is only through Apple Podcasts and Spotify via Spotify for Creators.
• Form, Email, Analytics, and Marketing Providers: We may use providers to receive parent sign-ups, send updates to subscribers, secure the Website, measure Website performance, and, with your consent, measure and support our marketing. We do not permit these providers to use Website information to train general-purpose AI models.
• Third-Party Platforms: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and any other platform you choose to use may independently collect, host, cache, analyze, recommend, display, archive, or distribute content under their own terms and privacy policies. Listening on those platforms is governed by their policies, not this Privacy Policy.
• Legal, Safety, and Business Sources: We may receive information from legal advisers, regulators, law enforcement, or other parties where permitted or required by law, and may process information in connection with a business transfer or reorganization.

How We Use Personal Information

We may use personal information we collect to:

• Respond to parent or guardian “Be on the Show” sign-ups and other inquiries;
• Send updates to parents and other adult visitors who subscribe through the updates subscription form;
• Operate, maintain, secure, troubleshoot, and improve the Website and its content;
• Provide information about Kids Have a Point, including episodes and participation opportunities;
• Measure Website usage and performance through analytics cookies, with your consent, to support internal operations and improve the Website;
• Send adult-only communications only where permitted by law and, where required, with consent; every update will include a clear one-click unsubscribe link;
• Promote Kids Have a Point and measure the effectiveness of our marketing, including through marketing cookies where you have consented, and link you to Apple Podcasts or Spotify;
• Protect the safety, security, and integrity of the Website, our systems, and our business;

We do not sell personal information for money. We do not run session replay or provide information to data brokers. Marketing cookies are used only after you consent and as described in “Cookies and Similar Technologies” below, and you may withdraw that consent at any time. We will not use child recordings, transcripts, images, or personal information to train general-purpose AI models or create synthetic replicas of a child’s voice or likeness without separate express parent or guardian permission.

III. OUR DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

We may disclose, grant access to, or make available personal information to the following categories of recipients, only as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy:

IV. THIRD-PARTY PLATFORMS AND COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES

Podcast Links. We currently publish Kids Have a Point through Apple Podcasts and Spotify via Spotify for Creators. The Website does not embed podcast players; it provides links to Apple Podcasts and Spotify. When you click a link, you leave the Website, and the platform’s own privacy policy applies: Apple [https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/] and Spotify [https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/privacy-policy/]. If we add embedded players or other platforms, such as YouTube, we will update this Privacy Policy first.

What Is a Cookie? Cookies are small text files that a website asks a browser to save on a user’s system or device when the user visits the website. Cookies may help the Website remember a device during a session or on a later visit. Cookies set by the Website’s domain are first-party cookies. Cookies set by a domain other than the Website’s domain are third-party cookies. We also use similar technologies, such as pixels or tags, which we refer to together with cookies as “cookies” in this Privacy Policy.

Types of Cookies We Use. The Website uses the following categories of cookies:

• Essential Cookies – These cookies are required to operate, secure, and manage the Website, including recording your cookie choices. They are set by default when necessary and cannot be switched off through the cookie banner.
• Analytics Cookies – These cookies help us understand how visitors use the Website and our podcast links, such as pages visited, links clicked, and referring websites, so we can measure reach and improve the Website. Analytics cookies are not set by default and are used only after you consent. Our analytics provider is Umami, which does not use cookies. Umami is loaded only after you consent to analytics and is not currently active.
• Marketing Cookies – These cookies, which may be set by us or by our marketing partners, help us promote Kids Have a Point and measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns, including on other websites and platforms. Marketing cookies are not set by default and are used only after you consent. We do not knowingly use marketing cookies to target children. We do not currently use any marketing tools, partners, or advertising trackers; Google Ads and the Meta Pixel are not currently active.
• Cookie List. The table below lists the cookies used on the Website. We will scan the Website periodically and identify and classify any new cookie before it is used.

How You Can Control Cookies. Only essential cookies are set by default. Analytics and marketing cookies are blocked until you provide consent through the cookie banner. The banner presents “Accept All,” “Reject Optional,” and category choices with equal prominence. You can change your choices at any time through “Cookie Preferences”. We honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals as an opt-out of marketing cookies. You may also remove or reject cookies in your browser settings, although doing so may affect Website functionality. Parents may manage cookie settings for their children, and children should ask a parent before changing settings.

V. PUBLISHED EPISODES AND PLATFORM PRIVACY

Published episodes may include the child’s first name or pseudonym and age only as the parent or legal guardian selected in the applicable consent. For a child under 13, we will not intentionally publish the child’s last name, school, home address, personal contact information, or precise location. We will also avoid publishing other unnecessary sensitive identifying information.

• Platform Listening. Kids Have a Point is currently published only on Apple Podcasts and Spotify through Spotify for Creators. Apple Podcasts and Spotify may independently process, host, cache, analyze, recommend, display, archive, or distribute episodes under their own policies. Listening on those platforms is governed by their policies, not this Privacy Policy.
• Withdrawal and Takedown. A parent or legal guardian may withdraw permission before publication as described in the Parent/Guardian Consent and Minor Media Release. After publication, Room for Tomorrow will review serious privacy or safety concerns and may remove content from channels under its control when appropriate, but cannot guarantee removal of copies already downloaded, shared, reposted, cached, syndicated, archived, or distributed by third parties.
• Privacy Requests. You may ask us to review, correct, or delete Website information about you or submitted about your child by contacting privacy@roomfortomorrow.com or hello@roomfortomorrow.com. We may verify identity or authority before responding and will generally respond within 30 days, subject to applicable law.

VI. DATA RETENTION

We retain personal information for no longer than reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, maintain legitimate business records, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, protect safety and rights, and comply with legal, tax, accounting, reporting, and security obligations.

Form submissions that do not result in participation will be deleted within 12 months. Correspondence will generally be retained for 3 years after the last substantive communication, unless a shorter period is appropriate or longer retention is required for legal, safety, or recordkeeping purposes.

Recordings, transcripts, consent records, production files, and other guest-participation information are retained under the Kids Have a Point Privacy & Data Retention Notice. If information remains in backup archives, we will securely store it and isolate it from further processing until deletion or deidentification is possible.

VII. SECURITY

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure. Access to parent inquiries and guest-related information is limited to authorized personnel with a business need. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure. If we determine that a security incident affects personal information, we will provide notice as required by applicable law.

VIII. CHILDREN’S PRIVACY AND COPPA

The Website is designed for parents and families, and children may listen with a parent. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 on the Website. The Website has no child accounts, child-facing comments, chat, uploads, contests, or forms. The “Be on the Show” sign-up form and the updates subscription form are for adults age 18 or older, and the “Be on the Show” form requires an adult attestation and collects only the adult’s name and email address. If we learn that a child submitted personal information, we will promptly stop using it and delete it, subject to any legally required preservation.

Parent and Guardian Rights

A parent or legal guardian may contact us to review or request deletion of information submitted about their child through the Website, refuse further collection or use, correct information, or raise a privacy or safety concern. We will respond to a properly submitted request within 30 days, subject to identity or authority verification and applicable legal exceptions. For recordings, consents, and published episodes, please see the Kids Have a Point Privacy & Data Retention Notice and the Parent/Guardian Consent and Minor Media Release.

IX. LINKS TO THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES OR SERVICES

The Website includes links to Apple Podcasts and Spotify and may include links to the podcast host or RSS distributor and other third-party websites or services. The Website does not embed podcast players. Those services are not controlled by Room for Tomorrow, and their own terms and privacy policies apply. Listening on Apple Podcasts or Spotify is governed by those platforms’ policies, not this Privacy Policy. Please review the applicable policy before using a third-party service or submitting information.

X. UPDATES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make changes, we will change the date at the beginning of the policy and, where appropriate, provide additional notice through the Website, email, or other reasonable means. If we add other platforms, such as YouTube, we will update this Privacy Policy first. Material changes will be effective when posted unless otherwise stated. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.

XI. CONTACT US

Questions, privacy requests, deletion requests, refusal of further collection, withdrawal or takedown concerns, or safety concerns may be sent to Room for Tomorrow, Inc. at privacy@roomfortomorrow.com or hello@roomfortomorrow.com.
