- Campaign and giveaway entries: your applications, form answers, reviews, ratings, photos and videos.

Information collected automatically
- Your IP address, device and browser type, and the pages you visit, collected through cookies and similar tools. See our Cookies Policy.
2How we use your data
- To create and manage your account, including verifying your mobile number with a one-time SMS code.
- To run Tried & Tested campaigns and giveaways: selecting testers and winners, and arranging delivery of products and prizes.
- To manage your points, referrals and rewards.
- To publish reviews, photos and videos you submit, as described in our Terms of Use.
- To contact you about your account, campaigns and deadlines by email or WhatsApp.
- To send you news, offers and campaign invitations, if you have agreed to receive them (see section 5).
- To improve our website, prevent fraud and duplicate accounts, and meet our legal obligations.
3Who we share your data with
We do not sell your personal data. We share it only as follows:
- Brands in campaigns you join: your name, mobile number and delivery address, so they can send you a product or prize and follow up on the campaign.
- Campaign partners: some campaigns are run with partners, such as licensed financial advisory firms. We share your details with a partner only when the campaign clearly says so and you choose to take part, for example to arrange a consultation that the campaign offers.
- Service providers: companies that help us run KidYouNot, such as website hosting, SMS verification, email, analytics and delivery. They may use your data only to provide their service to us.
- Authorities: where the law requires it, or to protect the rights and safety of our members and others.
- Business changes: if KidYouNot is merged, sold or restructured, your data may be transferred as part of that, under this policy.
Some of our service providers store data outside Singapore. Where this happens, we take steps to make sure your data is protected to a standard comparable to the PDPA.
4Children
KidYouNot accounts are for adults aged 18 and above. We do not knowingly collect personal data directly from children.
- We only hold information about your children that you choose to give us, such as their age group, or photos and videos in your reviews.
- By sharing it, you confirm you are the child's parent or legal guardian.
- To ask us to stop using a photo of your child in new materials, email us (see section 8).
5Marketing messages
- We send marketing messages by email, SMS or WhatsApp only if you have agreed to receive them.
- You can opt out at any time by using the unsubscribe link in our emails, replying STOP, or emailing us.
- Messages about your account, campaigns you have joined or prizes you have won are not marketing, and you may still receive them.
6Security and how long we keep data
We use reasonable security measures to protect your data, such as access controls and encrypted connections. No system is completely secure, so please keep your password private.
We keep personal data only as long as we need it for the purposes in this policy, or as the law requires. When you close your account, we delete or anonymise your data within a reasonable time, except records we must keep by law. Reviews and photos already published may remain, as described in our Terms of Use.
7Your rights
Under the PDPA, you can ask us to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you, and how it has been used or shared in the past year.
- Correct personal data that is wrong or incomplete.
- Withdraw your consent to us collecting, using or sharing your data. This may mean you can no longer take part in some campaigns, or keep your account.
Email us with your request. We will reply as soon as reasonably possible, and may ask you to confirm your identity first.
Our website links to other sites, such as brand websites. We are not responsible for their privacy practices, so please read their policies.
8Changes and contact
We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the new version here with its date, and tell members about major changes.
