At The smARTteacher, we are committed to protecting every User's privacy. We use the information we collect to provide a more personalized service. The smARTteacher's privacy policy, set forth below, is designed to use the information we collect about visitors with the utmost care and responsibility. By using or accessing thesmartteacher.com, you agree to our privacy practices outlined here.

A. Information Provided by All Users of the Website
--------------------------------------------------------

The information Users (as defined in the Terms and Conditions of Use) provide to The smARTteacher through thesmartteacher.com (the "Website") is used to provide enhanced and more personalized service, to properly organize and display resources, discussions and other materials. The data in The smARTteacher's databases are protected against unauthorized access through security procedures and software.

The information Users provide to The smARTteacher is solely for The smARTteacher's internal business use. We do not sell this information to anyone.

The smARTteacher may disclose personal information if we believe, in good faith, that such disclosure is necessary to comply with the law, to enforce or apply the terms of The smARTteacher's user agreements (including, without limitation, the Terms and Conditions of Use) or to protect the property, rights or safety of The smARTteacher, its Users or others.

B. Privacy Options
--------------------------------------------------------

You own all of the content and information you post on thesmartteacher.com and you can control whether much of it is publicly displayed through your privacy options under Setup within your Control Panel. All privacy settings initially default to publicly display your content and information (unless otherwise listed on your Setup tab). If you wish to hide certain information from your public profile, you must check the associated box on your Setup tab. Some information (including profile picture and bio) is automatically displayed to all users and visitors and does not have the option to be hidden. If you do not want this information to be publicly displayed, do not enter it.

You should be aware that, because personal information about yourself/your organization (i.e., name, school, email, address) can be posted publicly on your profile, it would therefore be accessible to all users and visitors of the Website; and that information could be collected, used and disclosed by others. The smARTteacher is not responsible for the collection, use or disclosure of such information.

In addition to information provided within your Control Panel, we keep track of some of your interactions on thesmartteacher.com, such as keeping, liking or creating a resource. When you access thesmartteacher.com we may also collect information from that device about your browser type, location and/or IP address.

In addition:

  1. For content that is covered by intellectual property rights, such as artwork (IP content), you specifically give us the following permission, subject to your privacy and application settings: you grant us a non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free, worldwide license to use any IP content that you post on or in connection with thesmartteacher.com (IP License). This IP License ends when you delete your IP content.
  2. When you delete IP content (resources, comments), it is deleted in a manner similar to emptying the recycle bin on a computer. However, you understand that removed content may persist in backup copies for a reasonable period of time (but will not be available to others).
  3. When you create content or interact with content (discussions/resources) it means that you are allowing everyone, including people off of thesmartteacher.com, to access and use that information, and to associate it with you (i.e., your username and profile picture).
  4. Although we allow you to set privacy options that limit access to your information, please be aware that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable. We cannot control the actions of other users with whom you share your information. We cannot guarantee that only authorized persons will view your information. We cannot ensure that information you share on thesmartteacher.com will not become publicly available. We are not responsible for third-party circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures on thesmartteacher.com. You can reduce these risks by using common sense security practices, such as choosing a strong password, using different passwords for different services and using up-to-date antivirus software.

C. Information Posted Publicly Throughout thesmartteacher.com
--------------------------------------------------------

Users should be aware that any personal information (including names of persons or schools) that is posted on thesmartteacher.com (in places other than the Control Panel) by Users is accessible to other Users and visitors of the Website and could be collected, used and disclosed by others. For example, if a User includes his or her full name or the name of a school in a comment, that information would be accessible to all Users and visitors of the Website. The smARTteacher is not responsible for the collection, use or disclosure of information provided in comments approved for posting. We strongly discourage Users from including personally identifiable information in comments that they leave.

D. Age Restrictions

If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under age 18, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that we might have any information from a child under age 18, please contact us at contact@thesmartteacher.com.

F. Cookie Information
--------------------------------------------------------

We use "cookies" (small pieces of data we store for an extended period of time on your computer, mobile phone or other device) to make thesmartteacher.com easier to use and to protect both you and thesmartteacher.com. For example, we use them to store your login ID (but never your password) to make it easier for you to log in whenever you come back to thesmartteacher.com. We also use them to confirm that you are logged into thesmartteacher.com, and to know when you are interacting with thesmartteacher.com. You can remove or block cookies using the settings in your browser, but in some cases that may impact your ability to use thesmartteacher.com.
