TinyCo, the developer of child-directed apps including Tiny Pets, Tiny Zoo, Tiny Village, Tiny Monsters, and Mermaid Resort will pay a civil penalty in the sum of $300,000 to the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) for failure to comply with Childrens Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”). The San-Francisco-based company has just settled a FTC lawsuit alleging violation of COPPA. Clearly targeting children, TinyCo gave the apps for free and they have been downloaded millions of times. But children can make in app purchases to enhance the game and they encouraged children to provide them with their email addresses but failed to obtain the required parental permission.
