Missing word in "Due to the nature of the, your communications ..."

I think

  Certain visitor characteristics are reflected in our web server logs 
  (such as, operating system, browser version, and Internet Protocol 
  (IP) address). We do not take affirmative steps to link them with the 
  individual visitors to the site, except as may be required to diagnose
  performance issues or to investigate misuse of the site or other
  unlawful or inappropriate activities.

and

  When you interact with the site, we strive to make your experience
  easy and meaningful. We may use cookies and other means to track user 
  activity and collect site data. We may combine these data with the 
  personal information we have collected.

are contradictory, especially considering that the former is in the
"What Information do we collect?" section, which does not mention the
latter.

With

  This site is not intended for use by children under 13 years old. We
  do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from, or 
  target our site to, children under the age of 13. In accordance with 
  the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998, if we discover 
  that a child under 13 has provided us with personally identifiable
  information, we will remove it from our systems immediately.

it seems unclear what this means when an 11 year old person posts e.g. a
Last Call comment. Would the mailing list archives be altered to remove
their name and mail address?
