Statement of Privacy

It's important to Eduquity to help its users retain their privacy. To ensure that the following six principles would apply:

1. Eduquity will explicitly ask when we need information that personally identifies you or allows them to contact you ("Personally Identifiable Information"). Generally this information is requested when registering, when requesting a particular service, or when entering a contest. When possible, Eduquity will provide you with the means to make sure that your Personally Identifiable Information is correct and current.
2. Eduquity and its service partners will use your Personally Identifiable Information to operate services and to inform you of new features, services, and products from Eduquity and its affiliates. We may also carefully select other companies to send you information about their products or services that are related to the site's service but are not necessary to its operation.
3. If Eduquity intends to use Personally Identifiable Information for a Secondary Use, the site will provide you with instructions on how to decline this service. You may also stop the delivery of informational or promotional e-mail by following the instructions on the e-mail sent to you.
4. The Eduquity site is primarily directed to online users ages 13 and above. For activities that require users to provide age information in order to participate, Eduquity will require users who indicate that they are under the age of 13 to get parental consent prior to using the site, by creating a Young Eduquitarian Passport account, or the website will attempt to block their access to the site.
5. Eduquity may disclose Personally Identifiable Information if required to do so by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on Eduquity or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of Eduquity, the site or its users, and (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of Eduquity, the site or the public.

If at any time you believe that the Eduquity site has not adhered to these principles, please get in touch with us and we will use all commercially reasonable efforts to promptly determine and correct the problem.

In addition to directly providing information to Eduquity, you might also provide Personally Identifiable Information through chat sessions, e-mail exchanges or newsgroups made available to you by Eduquity. The Statement of Privacy does not cover this type of transfer of your Personally Identifiable Information. You should always be careful when distributing your Personally Identifiable Information in this manner. And remember that online chat sessions and newsgroup use is considered public and you are responsible for your actions in these areas.
