Answer options

• A. A virtual jigsaw puzzle game marketed for ages 5-9 displays pieces of the puzzle on a handheld screen. Once the child completes a certain level, it flashes a message about new themes released that day.

• C. A math tutoring service commissioned an advertisement on a bulletin board inside a school. The service makes it simple for children to reach out to tutors by entering a through a QR-code through their school account.
• D. A note-taking application converts hard copies of kids’ class notes into audio books in seconds and stores a copy in the cloud in the students’ account.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Option C is the correct answer because it involves an advertisement that facilitates contact with tutors, which may not require stringent privacy controls compared to the other options that directly involve interactive features or data storage. The other scenarios (A, B, and D) engage children in activities that require more robust privacy measures due to their interactive nature and data handling.
