Thanks to current US government regulations on Websites maintained by the government, we've had to turn off access to the Guest Book until we can come up with a Guest Book that complies with the Child On-line Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) of 1998. The legislation is designed ot give parents control over what "privacy information" is being collected fromt their children. When we can devise a Guest Book that meets the following COPPA requirements, we'll be back online:

  1. Post clear and comprehensive Privacy Policies on the Website describing their information practices for children's personal information;
  2. provide notice to parents, and with limited exceptions, obtain verifiable parental consent before collecting personal information from children;
  3. give parents the choice to consent to the operator's collection and use of a child's information while prohibiting the operator from disclosing that information to third parties;
  4. provide parents access to their child's personal information to review and/or have it deleted;
  5. give parents the opportunity to prevent further collection or use of the information
  6. maintain the confidentiality, security, and integrity of information they collect from children.
