6.2. We do not undertake to monitor or verify Users’ compliance with these Terms, including to verify the identity or suitability of any User for any purpose, or to verify the suitability of Content made available via the Website.

6.3. We use reasonable efforts, including technical and human measures, to:

  1. remove embedded geolocation data from images before posting;

  1. mistakes can and do happen and that no system is foolproof.  For example ;

  3. we are dependent on your cooperation to ensure the safety and security of the Website and its Users.  You must notify us if you believe any inappropriate Content has been posted by your child.  We encourage you to notify us if you believe any inappropriate Content has been posted by another User or any other inappropriate activity has occurred in relation to the Website.  Refer to our Reporting Activity requirements set out in clause 12.1.

6.5 Our missions are designed to be fun!  In addition, children are notorious at bending rules.  You are solely responsible for adequately supervising your child’s mission activities.  Although we endeavour to include safety notes in the online descriptions of the missions, these are in no way comprehensive and should be seen as a guideline only.  As with all activities in life, the missions involve a degree of risk. You must exercise common sense and take reasonable precautions based on your own assessment. If you cannot remove or reduce a risk to an acceptable level then do not attempt the mission.
