That's what I was afraid of. I didn't give them the credit card info. I think I'll forward the email onto Disney so they can look into it.
Here's the text of the email:
Dear Parent or Guardian of kaley,
Your child has just registered at
Disneyland.com. He or she now has access to the Walt Disney Internet Group (WDIG) family of sites including Disney.com, FamilyFun.com, ESPN.com, ABC.com, ABCNEWS.com and Movies.com.
We at Disneyland.com are committed to strong Internet privacy protections. That's why no personally identifiable information collected from guests under 13 years of age is used for any marketing or promotional purposes whatsoever, either inside or outside Disneyland.com and our other sites.
In addition, to help parents protect their children online we take the following steps:
1. We have a comprehensive privacy policy regarding kids that we encourage you to read. It is located at the end of this letter.
Our privacy policy describes how we collect, use and secure personally identifiable information collected online from kids.
It also describes how parents can review the personally identifiable information we have collected.
2. We allow kids to surf our site, look at content and play some games without giving us any personally identifiable information.
3. We notify parents when a child has given us personally identifiable information - that's why you received this letter.
4. We require parents to give express permission before we will allow their children to use e-mail, message boards, free Fantasy Games and other features where personally identifiable information can be made public to the Internet and shared with users of all ages. Click here to complete the process to give your child access to interactive features.

5. When kids sign up to play some games and contests we ask them to register with us. We also ask kids to register to use pre-moderated message boards so that they will have a unique user identity. However, all content is screened on these boards before it's posted so that no personally identifiable information will be disclosed. Once your child has registered, they will be allowed to use future pre-moderated boards and enter any future registration-based games and contests or and we won't notify you again.
To register, they provide the first name, their age, their parent's e-mail address and they create a member name and password. The reason we collect an e-mail address is to notify parents when a child has won. We don't use this information for any other purpose. We give parents 48 hours to say no to this registration. If we don't hear back from you, we'll assume it's okay for your child to be registered with us. Click here if you don't want your child to be registered.

6. We let parents request at any time that their child's personally identifiable information -- including information collected during registration -- be deleted from our database. Click here to delete your child's account.

Again, welcome to Disneyland.com!
