Plain-English summary
The policy review found a few concerns. Users are cautioned against putting private information in their username or chat due to potential misuse or saving by others (risk-flags-1).

However, the policy includes a strong protection for parents and legal guardians, allowing them to review, correct, or delete their child's personal information, delete their child's account, and control further data collection (protection-1).
