Firstly, I meant to clarify that "information" as relevant to COPPA refers to personally identifiable details that are given out by a user and collected or handled by the company.

Wikia's ad program and the advertisements don't appear to directly target individuals by age. Targeting children could generally trigger heavy flags in other aspects of COPPA. You're right, looks like Wikia made provisions to their cookies so that underage viewers could browse their wikis.
