Molecularium.com is the place in cyberspace where fans of MOLECULARIUM® films can come to find out more about the films, play games and buy fun merchandise. Molecularium.com believes in the power of children and we urge both children and their parents to use and enjoy our Web site.

At Molecularium.com, it’s our policy to create Web site content that requires minimum collection of information from our visitors. Generally, Molecularium.com limits our collection of information from children to what is known as non-personally identifiable information (e.g., screen name).

When prompted to create a username, we recommend you use non-personally identifiable information. Your login information is only used in games and activities where users might want to save points and creations.
