19. Welcome to Sweety High!
 Sweety High is a revolutionary online platform for girls, rewarding user’s
creativity with exclusive real world prizes and one-of-a-kind opportunities.
 Having witnessed the lack of quality online destinations for teen/tween girls for
too long, we set out to design a site that would empower girls to support each
other in art, entertainment and design but within a community that promotes
safety, leadership and fair play.
 At Sweety High, our focus is on giving girls an opportunity to bridge the gap
between their lives and the cultural products they love; to help them connect
with other like-minded girls by giving them a dynamic creative outlet that also
emphasizes their “off” line lives.
 Sweety High has implemented the strictest COPPA compliant Privacy Policy,
has Privo’s seal of approval as a safe harbor, uses Crisp Thinking – the most
advanced moderation system in the market – and rewards girls for learning
how to protect themselves online. To learn more, please go to Crisp Thinking
