If you have any reservations about our privacy practices, please feel free to contact us with your concerns. We're open to feedback and committed to addressing your questions.

Your Privacy, Your Rules: Customize Your Browser for Enhanced Protection

We understand that web browsers offer private browsing modes to limit data collection, and we encourage you to explore your browser's settings for more information. Remember, different browsers provide varying levels of protection. Take control and browse with confidence, knowing we support your right to privacy every step of the way.

Here are some additional tips for private browsing:

  • Familiarize yourself with your browser's privacy settings. Most offer various levels of protection, like blocking third-party cookies and disabling location tracking.
  • Consider using extensions or add-ons. Many tools specialize in blocking trackers and enhancing privacy while browsing.
  • Remember, private browsing isn't foolproof. While it may prevent your browser from storing certain data, other tracking methods might still exist.

Children's Privacy and Data Analytics

Our website, catering to educators and parents, includes educational resources and an HTML5 app designed for interactive learning. In our HTML5 app operations, we utilize Google Analytics and server data to enhance our services and understand usage patterns. We recognize the importance of safeguarding the privacy of our young users, especially in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and other relevant privacy regulations.

Non-Personal Data Collection:

  • We use Google Analytics and server logs primarily to collect non-personal, aggregated data on our HTML5 app web pages. This data includes general usage statistics and engagement metrics, which help us enhance our educational offerings.
  • Our analytics strategy is focused on understanding overall usage patterns and improving the user experience on a collective level rather than analyzing individual user behaviors.
COPPA Compliance and Protecting Children's Privacy:
  • Consistent with COPPA's requirements, we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13.
  • If we discover that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 13 without appropriate parental consent, we will take immediate steps to delete that information.
Use and Security of Analytics Data:
  • The analytics data, being non-personal and aggregated, is utilized to understand how our resources are used in educational settings and security purposes and to guide improvements in our services.
  • We have implemented privacy safeguards to ensure that any data collection is secure and does not target or profile individual children.
  • Regular audits and updates to our data collection and processing practices are conducted to ensure alignment with the best practices in educational technology and privacy law.
Parental Rights and Controls:
  • Parents have the right to review any personal information collected from their children and can request the deletion of such information or refuse further collection and use of their child's information.
Commitment to Ongoing Privacy and Security:
  • The protection of all users' privacy and security, especially children's, is a top priority. We continuously adapt our practices to uphold high standards of data protection and security.
  • We encourage parents, educators, and guardians to engage with and monitor their children's online activities to ensure a safe learning experience.

For more detailed information on our data practices or if you have specific concerns regarding children's privacy, please feel free to contact us.
