This Policy applies to the Empow Studios websites available at www.empow.me, www.empowlabs.com, www.talentbox.app, and any of our other websites or applications that post this Policy (respectively the “Site” or “App”) as well as all of our services made available through the Site or App (together with the Site and the App, the “Services”).

IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR SCHOOL USERS

If you are a user (or a parent of a student user) who was given access to the Services by the school you are affiliated with, this Privacy Policy does not govern how your school might collect, use, or disclose your student’s information. Please consult with your school for more information about their privacy practices. In addition, your and your student’s information may be shared with your school or school district. Your school may choose to share, and we may share at their request, your student’s information with new administrators or teachers. We are not responsible for your school’s collection, use, or disclosure of your personal information or information shared at your school’s request. Please contact your school to better understand your school’s privacy practices

1. Information Collected by Empow Studios Website

We collect information about you and your students in a variety of ways, such as information that you and your student provide to us, information that your school provides to us, information collected automatically through technology, information collected through the use of cookies, unique identifiers and other tracking tools, and information collected through the use of third party analytics technologies. We may combine information we collect from you, your student’s teacher or school, or third parties, as applicable, with information we collect from you or your student directly. Prior to creating new student accounts, we require teachers to accept Our Privacy Policy as an authorized school official providing Consent on behalf of minor students.

Information a Teacher or Parent Gives Us

We collect personal information you provide to us, which may include personal information of your students if you provide us with such information. By providing us with personal information about your students, you are representing to us that you have all necessary authority or consent to provide us with such information. For example, in connection with your use of the Services, you may provide us your name, country, postal code, email address, username, password, and other information, including demographic information and information about your classroom, your school, and your students. We also collect writing by teachers, including but not limited to assignment instructions and feedback that teachers provide to students using the Services.

Information a Student Gives Us

We collect any personal information a student directly provides to us through use of the Services, including a student’s name, classroom affiliation, username, and password, and email address (optional). We also collect information about how a student interacts with the Services, including the audio that a student plays, quiz-related information, responses a student writes to teacher-initiated or system-initiated assignments, how much time a student spends using the Services, and other performance related information. We may also collect information about a student provided by a school.

Information about You and Your Student that Your School Gives Us

We collect personal information about you and/or your student that your school, school district and/or their administrators choose to provide to and share with us, directly and through third party service providers.

Information Automatically Collected from You and Your Student

We and our third party service providers may automatically collect information about you and your student’s computer or mobile device when you or your student visit our Site or access our App, including by using certain technologies that are further described below (collectively, “Tracking Tools”). Some of the information that may be collected when a user uses the Services, include, for example, computer or device operating system type, IP address, browser type, browser language, mobile device ID, device hardware type, the website or application visited or used before or after accessing our Services, the parts of the Services accessed, length of time spent on a page or using a feature, access times for a webpage or feature, and demographic information, such as gender and age range. These Tracking Tools help Empow Studios learn more about our users, such as their demographics and internet behaviors, so that we can improve our Services.

By accessing or using the Services, whether as a registered user or otherwise, you acknowledge, understand, and hereby agree that you are giving us your consent to set and access Tracking Tools, including cookies, on your device and in the emails we send you, and to track your activities and your use of the Services through these Tracking Tools in accordance with this Privacy Policy. For clarity, our third party business partners do not have access to Tracking Tools set by Empow Studios or on our Services except to the extent necessary to provide services to the Services.

The following are Tracking Tools used by Empow Studios or its third party service providers in connection with the Services:

Cookies

We may automatically collect information using “cookies.” Cookies are small data files stored on your hard drive by a website. Among other things, cookies help us make our Services and your experience better. For example, we use cookies to see which parts and features of our Services are popular, count visits to our Services and improve or tailor the Services to make them more relevant to our users. For more information on cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.

Unique Identifiers

We may use unique identifiers to track individual usage behavior on our Services, such as length of time spent on a particular page and pages viewed during a particular log-in period. The unique identifiers collect information about a user’s use of the Services on an individual basis. We use the information that we gather through unique identifiers to evaluate and improve the Services and its content, including, but not limited to, improving and evaluating the effectiveness of certain materials on our Services and the student and teacher experience while using the Services.

Web Beacons

Web beacons, or clear GIFs or pixel tags, are small graphic image files that can be embedded in web pages or emails to collect information about a user’s use of our Services or the correspondences that we send to them. The information collected by web beacons allows us to analyze how and how many people are using the Services or when users open our emails.

Analytics and Other Technologies

We use other technologies and analytics services (including Google Analytics) to help analyze how users use the Services. These analytics use cookies, digital images called web beacons and other technological methods to collect and store information such as how often users visit the Services, what features they use, what pages they visit, what emails they open, and what other sites or applications they used prior to and after visiting the Services. We use the information we get from analytics services to improve our Site, App and Services. Please see the following links for more information about Google Analytics and to opt-out if you choose to: http://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/ and https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Mobile Device Identifiers

Mobile device identifiers are identifiers stored on your mobile device that may track your mobile device and data and activities occurring on or through it, as well as the applications installed on it. Mobile device identifiers enable collection of personal information (such as media access controls) as well as non-personally identifiable information (such as usage and traffic data). As with other Tracking Tools, mobile device identifiers help Empow Studios learn more about our users’ demographics and internet behaviors and operate and improve the Services.

THIRD PARTY ACCOUNT CONNECTIONS

If you or your student chooses to log on or otherwise associate the Services with another third party account (for example, a Google Account), we may receive information from that third party site to make it easier for you or your student to create an account on the Services and display relevant content. Any information that we collect from these third party accounts may depend on the privacy settings you or your student has with that third party, so please consult their privacy and data practices.

 

2. How Empow Studios will use the information collected from you

We use information collected through our Services, or disclosed by you on our Site or App in connection with our Services, for the purposes described in this Policy. For example, we may use your and your student’s information to:

  • operate, maintain, and improve our Site, App, and Services;
  • understand student’s performance in relation to others, and to provide you and your student with insight into their performance;
  • understand your and your student’s preferences and to enhance your and your student’s experience and enjoyment using our Site, App, and Services;
  • respond to comments and questions and provide customer service;
  • send you related information including confirmations, invoices, technical notices, updates, security alerts, and support and administrative messages;
  • create advertisements shown to teachers and administrators that reflect the interests and capabilities of their students and communicate with teachers and administrators about promotions and other news about Services offered by us (Note: Empow Studios never directs targeted advertising at Children. See: “Interest-Based or Online Behavioral Advertising,” below.);
  • protect, investigate, and deter against fraudulent, unauthorized, or illegal activity; provide and deliver products and services that you request

We will not use your personal information in any way other than in connection with providing the Services, as described in this Policy, as directed by a teacher or school, or upon obtaining your consent.

SHARING OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

We do not share your or your student’s personal information except as follows:

  • with your school or school district at their request;
  • with third party service providers, consultants, and other service providers who perform services for us and need access to your or your student’s information to do that work in a manner consistent with this Policy (for example, our web hosting provider, third party analytics service providers, and purchase processors);
  • to comply with laws or to respond to lawful requests and legal process;
  • to protect the rights and property of Empow Studios, our agents, users, and others including to enforce our agreements, policies, and terms of use;
  • in an emergency to protect the personal safety of our users or any person;
  • in connection with or during negotiation of any merger, financing, acquisition, bankruptcy, dissolution, transaction or proceeding involving sale, transfer, divestiture, or disclosure of all or a portion of our business or assets to another company, in which case the company receiving the personal information would be obligated to follow this Policy.

Additionally, we may share your or your student’s personal information with new teachers who use the Services in their classrooms when you or your student, as applicable, enroll in such teachers’ classes, and we may share teacher personal information with other teachers within a school using the Services.

We may create and use anonymized and/or aggregated data for our own purposes by excluding information (such as your or your student’s name) that makes the data personally identifiable to you or your student. The purposes for which we may create and use anonymized and/or aggregated data include but are not limited to, conducting analysis and generating statistics regarding the use of our Site, App, and/or Services.

We will not share your or your student’s personal information in any way other than in connection with providing the Services, as described in this Policy, as directed by a teacher, parent/legal guardian or school, or upon obtaining your consent.

We require our third party service providers not to use your or your student’s personal information other than to provide the services that we have requested.

We will not disclose your or your student’s personal information to any third party for that third party’s own marketing purposes. Additionally, we will not knowingly use or disclose student information (whether personal information or otherwise) for behavioral targeting of advertisements to such students. We do not sell student personal information. For clarity, we may make recommendations within or through the Services of features, tools, and content on the Services to students based on their demographic information or activities on our Services. For example, we may suggest a project to a student based on the student having shown interest in similar projects in the past, or based on the student’s grade level.

4. Opting-out of providing the information we request

Because the Empow Studios Programs are individualized and customized for each student, all the information we request from you and students are required for you and a student to participate in the Programs, with the exception of certain information to be used for our marketing purposes to you only. At any time, you may revoke your consent to allowing a student to participate in the Empow Studios Programs or refuse to allow Empow Studios to further use or collect a student’s personal information. Any ANONYMOUS performance data will be retained, but we will no longer use any identifiable information regarding you or a student that you have provided. However, if you do any of the foregoing, you and a student will not be able to participate in the Programs.

5. Reviewing and changing your information

You may review and modify your Registration Information at any time by accessing our website using your password, or sending us a support mail with a request to change it.

6. Consent

In order to use the Programs, you and/or your student(s) are asked to submit certain personal information about yourselves and to authorize Empow Studios to use that information in a limited number of ways. We ask you and/or the student to ensure that the Parent/Educator has reviewed and submitted a Consent as part of the registration process, which will require you to consent to our collection and use of information directly from a student over the Internet as described above. Prior to creating class codes for distribution to students or importing student rosters, we require teachers to accept Our Privacy Policy as an authorized school official on behalf of minor students.

7. Password Protection

You and your students will set a password each to access the Programs through our website, and this password will be used to allow you and the students to use the Programs. The passwords should be kept confidential. Your password will also allow you to review and change the information we collect about you and students.

8. Protecting your information

No data transmissions over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Consequently, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us and you do so at your own risk. Empow Studios has multiple security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse or alteration of information under our control.

9. Your information and third parties

Except as provided in this Privacy Policy, Empow Studios WILL NOT disclose the information that it obtains from you to third parties without your express written permission, or where we believe, in good faith, that the law requires us to disclose the information. Empow Studios WILL NOT sell, trade, or assign any unaggregated personal information that it collects to third parties outside of Empow Studios. We, however, may aggregate the information that we collect from users of our website to create demographic profiles and performance profiles regarding the progress of students who use the Programs. Empow Studios may share aggregated information with marketing professionals, or potential investors. This aggregated information will be compiled and reported in the form of ANONYMOUS group statistics only. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, as Empow Studios continues to develop its business, it might sell some or all of its assets. In such transactions, customer information is generally one of the transferred business assets. An acquiring company would be required to protect all information that Empow Studios collects from users of our website and Programs in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy.

10. Unsolicited third-party promotional emails

Empow Studios will not send you unsolicited third-party promotional emails.

11. General Data Protection Regulation (Residents of the European Union)

12. Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act

Congress has enacted a law called the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA) which is designed to protect children’s privacy during use of the Internet. Empow Studios has implemented practices consistent with the guidelines provided by the Federal Trade Commission to date. Empow Studios will never knowingly request personally identifiable information or private content from anyone under the age of 13 without parental or educator consent. Empow Studios DOES NOT SHARE CHILDRENS PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION WITH THIRD PARTIES. If you are a parent, legal guardian, or educator of a user under 13 you may, at any time, revoke your consent to allow a student to use the Programs under your subscription, refuse to allow Empow Studios to further use or collect a student’s personal information, or direct Empow Studios to delete all identifiable information regarding a student that you have provided. To do so, please contact us at the contact information below. However, if you do any of the foregoing, a student will not be able to use the Programs. If you would like more information about COPPA, please go to http://www.ftc.gov/enforcement/rules/rulemaking-regulatory-reform-proceedings/childrens-online-privacy-protection-rule.

13. The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) is a Federal law that protects the privacy of student education records. The law applies to all schools that receive funds under an applicable program of the U.S. Department of Education. FERPA gives parents certain rights with respect to their children’s education records. These rights transfer to the student when he or she reaches the age of 18 or attends a school beyond the high school level. Empow Studios is fully compliant with FERPA. Specifically:

  1. Any sensitive online information is transmitted over secure channels.
  2. All student data are stored in ways that are not publicly accessible.
  3. Security audits are regularly performed to ensure data integrity.

Empow Studios does not share student information with any third parties. If a school requests that student data should be sent to a third party, with parental consent, Empow Studios would send the data to the school and never directly to the third party. If you would like more information about FERPA, please go to http://www.ed.gov/policy/gen/guid/fpco/ferpa/index.html.

14. Amendments

Empow Studios may amend this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you by email regarding any material changes to our privacy and security practices. Please review all revisions to the Privacy Policy. You may be asked to reconfirm your consent to the Policy in order to continue use of our website(s) and the Programs after the date Empow Studios has updated such policies.
