Harumika

In UK, BANDAI has made children dream for … (please complete) years by blending creativity with emotion and cult characters with innovation. “Charlotte aux Fraises”, “Pokémon”, “Badge It”, “Disney Fairies” and now “Harumika” are some of the thousand wonderful worlds of action and fantasy available to each generation of children … and Bandai is not about to stop!
Bandai’s aim is to free children’s creativity, offer them unlimited entertainment possibilities, allow them to have fun while stimulating their imagination, encourage innovation and provide a source of inspiration.
For Bandai, this goal necessarily implies respecting children’s privacy and providing them with a safe and pleasant environment.

Prior parental authorisation

The Harumika Site offers various activities in which you can participate and various tabs you can click on without providing us any personal information (“Create your virtual model”, “Fashion search”, information on Harumika products, etc.).
However, if you wish to become a Member, put your personal gallery online and share with other internet users the photographs of actual fashions that you create and are worn by your Harumika model, or virtual fashions that you create via the Harumika website, we will ask you, with the prior agreement of your parents or legal guardian, 1) to provide us your surname, first name, date of birth and the e-mail address of one of your parents or of your legal guardian (information provided must be accurate); 2) to create a password and user name; and 3) to choose an avatar.
These same rules apply if you wish to enter a contest.
