   3. While we have no way of distinguishing the age of individuals who access the Site, we never knowingly ask a child under the age of 18 to divulge Personal Information without first obtaining parental or guardian consent.  If you think that your child has provided us with Personal Information without the necessary consent, please contact us at jen@jenyocum.com to remove the information.
