Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide a third-party system that allows parents or authorized guardians to continually grant permissions to several websites and online services and provides a one-time-authentication process of the parent-child relationship. Through this system, the need to re-authenticate the parent-child relationship or for each online company to build their own authentication system and COPPA record keeping mechanisms can be reduced or eliminated. In addition, the embodiments provided herein may afford a service for managing COPPA compliance that is relatively easy for online companies to integrate into their online services and websites.
