For treatment of data referring to children (aged up to 12 years old), this shall be done with specific and highlighted consent given by at least one of the parents or by the child’s legal person responsible. For this reason, the Sabará Children’s Hospital advises the owners of data as participants that they should register the data of their under-age dependents, and update, in the restricted area, such information so that they may give express consent for the treatment of data involving children, through a clear and objective statement to this effect, so that the terms of the Law may be followed. Data for children and adolescents may be collected without consent when this is necessary for protection of the child or adolescent, or for contacting the parents or the legal person responsible. In this case, they shall be used only once, without storage. Under no circumstances may the data be passed on to third parties without consent.
