This website is owned and operated by America’s Special Kidz for the purpose of providing to its user information regarding A.S.K. and for entertainment purposes. Please be assured that A.S.K. does not share or sell any information that you give us, except for purposes noted in the Terms and Conditions portion of this website.
Any personally identifiable information collected by A.S.K. on this site is for special offer fulfillment purposes, providing users with information and entertainment, and that information is destroyed once the request has been fulfilled.

Cookies/and Usage
We may use “cookies” on some pages of our website to help us serve you better each time you return. A cookie is a small text file which is sent by a website, accepted by a web browser and then placed on your hard drive. The data collected from these cookies helps us to analyze browsing patterns of our visitors in order to improve the content and design of our website. The information collected from these cookies is for the exclusive use of A.S.K. and will not be shared with other vendors. The cookie expires after six months, so there is little concern about it storing outdated information. You can always set your browser to refuse all cookies or to warn you when a cookie is sent to you. This will provide you with more control over the acceptance of cookies on your hard drive. However, it is possible that some portions of this website will not function properly or may perform more slowly if you choose to reject cookies.
Surfing the Web
An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing on the Web. Web servers automatically will identify a computer by its IP address. We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the site, track users’ movement and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Sharing Information
At times, we may be working with third-party companies to execute a specific promotion or program. If the information is to be shared with any third party for the purposes of executing a specific promotion or program, the details will be clearly communicated in the program’s rules for the specific program or promotion, and the third party will have no right to use the information for independent purposes. When a user signs up for these services, he or she will have to opt-in to permit A.S.K. to share names or other contact information necessary for the third party to provide these services. These third parties are not allowed to use personally identifiable information, except for the purpose of providing these services. In support of this policy, A.S.K. will enter into written agreements with all third parties to ensure that they will meet privacy standards, including the privacy standards of COPPA and the U.S. Commerce Department Safe Harbor provisions.
Links to other Sites
This website contains links to other websites. Please be aware that A.S.K. is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every website that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this website.
Security of Personal Information
This website takes every precaution to secure our users’ information. When users submit personally identifiable information via the website, your information is protected both online and off-line. If you have any questions about the security at our website, you can send an e-mail to joanne@AmericaSpecialKidz.com
If a user’s personally identifiable information changes (such as your zip code), or if a user no longer desires our service, we will endeavor to provide a way to correct, update or remove that user’s personal data. This can usually be done via email.
Your Choice/Opt-in
Users who provide information at the time of registration or other submission will be asked whether they wish to receive future offers and information from the website and may opt-in at that time by checking the appropriate opt-in box on the page where such personal information is collected.
Users of our site are always notified when their information is being collected for use by any third parties. We do this so our users can make an informed choice as to whether or not they should proceed with services that require sharing their personal information with a third party.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on our Homepage, so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If at any point we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we will notify users by way of an e-mail. Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their information in this different manner.
We will always use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected.
COPPA Compliance
This website allows individuals of any age to participate in our online offers, unless stated otherwise. In order to participate in any online offers, any child under the age of 18 need only provide us with his or her e-mail address. This information is used for the sole purpose of fulfilling a one-time request and will be immediately deleted upon fulfillment of the one-time request. A.S.K. does not allow individuals under the age of 18 to opt-in to receive future e-mailings. Therefore, A.S.K. does not knowingly collect data for individuals that identify themselves as children under the age of 18.
If an opt-in request for a child under the age of 18 is knowingly received by A.S.K., we will delete all personally identifiable information (including e-mail address) concerning that child from the database. That information will in no way be used or given to a third party. If a parent discovers that his or her child has submitted personal information to A.S.K. via the A.S.K. website, they can remove their child from our database by sending an e-mail to joanne@AmericaSpecialKidz.org, or by U.S. postal mail at the address:
America’s Special Kidz, P.O. Box 2098, Woodland Park, NJ 07424
If a parent discovers that his or her child has submitted personal information to one of A.S.K. Promotional Offer websites and wishes to opt-out, they may do so by visiting our unsubscribe page for promotional offers.
