Why is Children's Services Council requesting personal information about my family, such as my child’s date of birth?

To ensure our EveryParent website and apps are as relevant and timely as possible, we've asked for families to put in their child's date of birth. This way we can offer information that's personalized, so parents see and read about what's going on in their child's specific stage of life. This also gives us the ability to alert parents (through push notifications) to upcoming milestones, important dates and appropriate local resources. 

(For example, if a child is 3 ½ years old, we can alert parents to sign up for free Voluntary Pre-Kindergarten for all 4 year olds. If a child is 14 ½, we can alert parents to the learner’s permit and driver’s license process.) 

Also, through the app, parents can upload their own photos and videos, and share them to their own social media accounts if they'd like. We will never sell any of your personal information.

How is Children's Services Council storing my data and keeping it secure?

Our vendors, who are experts in the field, have ensured that any personal data (photos, videos, birth dates, etc.) is uploaded and downloaded securely. We’ve also included the use of standard security protocols provided by Apple and Google, for any data stored locally on an individual’s device.
