This establishes Writer's remedial obligation upon discovering that a child under 16 has submitted personal information, providing a protective measure for underage users.
Interpretive note: The obligation is to 'take steps to delete,' not to guarantee deletion. The primary claim captures this qualifier. The excerpt does not specify what 'such information' refers to beyond the clause context, which may limit precision.
The updated policy removes detailed disclosures that previously explained five cookie categories (strictly necessary, functional, performance, targeting), their purposes, and user controls. The revised policy retains only a brief statement that Writer uses cookies to enhance navigation, analyze usage, personalize experience, and assist in advertising, but no longer provides the granular categories, opt-out procedures, or explanation of what data each type collects. Users can no longer reference specific cookie management options, targeting cookie opt-out procedures, or detailed functional descriptions within the policy itself.
