Mazoola

Mazoola is an app that gives parents digital superpowers to help navigate their child’s path to earning, learning, and developing essential money management skills.

Going digital is the new norm and so is digital marketing. Cookie placement, location-based advertising, behavioral targeting, and other clever marketing tactics regularly put children’s privacy at risk and violate the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). New banking solutions aimed at children and families have appeared – none have adequately addressed COPPA or privacy concerns.

Founded in 2008, Mazoola was built from the ground up – built by parents concerned about exposure of unregulated marketing, concerned that their child’s personal information would fall into the wrong hands. The Mazoola mission is simple: give kids the power of a mobile wallet, teach them about money management but power the solution with privacy to ensure they always remain safe. Because a child’s privacy matters.

*Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act:
U.S. federal law designed to prohibit the collection and use of personal information about children by the operators of Internet services and Web sites. Passed by the U.S. Congress in 1998, the law took effect in April 2000. It is administered and enforced by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
