  • Confirm whether we process their personal information.
  • Access and delete certain personal information.
  • Data portability.
  • Opt-out of personal data processing for targeted advertising and sales.
  • Correct inaccuracies in their personal information, taking into account the information’s nature processing purpose.
  • Opt-out of profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects.

Student Privacy Pledge

SchoolMint is a signatory to the Student Privacy Pledge to safeguard student privacy regarding the collection, maintenance, and use of student personal information.

Federal and State Student Privacy Protection Laws

Student information that Authorized Users or School Representatives share with SchoolMint may be considered “educational records” under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act and the US Department of Education’s implementing regulations at 34 CFR Part 99 (collectively, “FERPA”). If you have questions about the collection and use of information through the Services, please contact your School, which controls the use of such information. SchoolMint takes student privacy seriously, and only uses information from or about students in accordance with the School’s instructions and consents procured by the School. As a service provider and “data processor” on behalf of Schools, SchoolMint may collect personal information about School Representatives and Authorized Users, including K-12 students, such as login credentials, name, addresses, telephone number, e-mail addresses, photographs or audio or video recordings.

In addition, we may also collect identifiable information from parents about their children in order to facilitate school enrollment, such as birth date, immunization records or other similar information. We use appropriate technical and organizational measures when we collect and use this information in accordance with the School’s instructions.

In addition, there are state student privacy acts that apply to the use of student information by service providers like SchoolMint.

California and Florida’s Student Online Privacy Protection Acts (“SOPIPA”) each require that SchoolMint does not knowingly engage in the following activities in connection with personally identifiable information from or about students (further defined the respective laws as “covered information”):

  • Engage targeted advertising on the covered service.
  • Use covered information for targeted advertising on other locations.
  • Develop student profiles using covered information for a non-K-12 school purpose.
  • Sell, share or rent covered information to third parties (except as part of a merger or business sale).
  • Disclose covered information, unless certain exceptions apply.

The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act

The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 and its rules (collectively, “COPPA”) requires SchoolMint to inform parents and legal guardians about our practices for collecting, using, and disclosing personal information from children under the age of 13. It also requires us to obtain verifiable consent from a child’s parent for certain collection, use, and disclosure of the child’s personal information, which a School has provided to SchoolMint on their behalf.

SchoolMint may collect personally identifiable information about children under age 13 from a School when a School identifies a child as an Authorized User of our products and services. If a School identifies a child under age 13 as an Authorized User, School Mint requires that the School provide appropriate consents to SchoolMint on behalf of parents prior to identifying a child as an Authorized User of a SchoolMint product or service. SchoolMint only collects this information for a School-authorized educational purpose and for no other purpose.

Please review our COPPA privacy policy for more information.

INFORMATION COLLECTION

Information We Collect from School Representatives

We collect information from you when you choose to provide it to us. This may include when you create an account with us, sign up for our email lists or otherwise contact us.

All School Representatives use SchoolMint products or services as part of their School’s relationship with SchoolMint, and we collect personally identifiable information from you on behalf of and at the direction of your School.

If you make purchases through the Site on behalf of a School, you may provide certain payment information, such as payment card or other financial account information, and billing address. A third-party payment processor collects and processes that information on our behalf; we do not collect or retain your payment information.

User Generated Content

When School Representatives voluntarily disclose information about themselves in the content that they submit to us (e.g., personal information such as name, phone number and personal web address) or other public postings on the website, this information will be publicly available, can be collected and used by third parties and may result in unsolicited messages from others. Such activities are beyond our control. Please refrain from disclosing personal information on this website that you intend to keep private.

If School Representatives or Authorized Users provide us with personal information about others, or if others give us your information, we will only use that information for the specific reason for which it was provided to us.

Information Collected From Other Sources

We may obtain information about you from other sources, including social networks that you use to connect with us if you are a School Representative, at the direction of the School.

This information may include name, user name, demographic information, updated address or contact information, interests, and publicly-observed data, such as from social media and online activity.

Social Media

The Site also may permit additional interactions between it and a third-party website, service, or other content provider, such as enabling you to “like” or share content to a third party social media service (such as Facebook), or to share content from a third party social media service to our Site. If you choose to “like” or share content, or to otherwise share information from or via our Site with a third party site or service, that information may be publicly displayed, and the third party may have access to information about you and your use of our Site (and we may have access to information about you from that third party). Please note that your relationship with any social media service is governed solely by your agreement(s) with such social media service and your interactions with third parties through social media or similar features are governed by the respective privacy policies of those third parties.

Information Collected Automatically and cookie policy

SchoolMint does not engage in targeted advertising or the automatic collection of information when Authorized Users use our Services, except as required by a School and allowed by applicable student privacy laws. SchoolMint does not intentionally engage in targeted advertising to students.

In addition to personal information, SchoolMint may also gather non-personally identifiable information, which may be used by SchoolMint. Generally, “non-personally identifiable information” means information that is collected by automatic or electronic means, using technologies such as cookies, pixel tags and web beacons, browser analysis tools, and web server logs or other technologies to automatically collect certain information when you use our Services or interact with our emails and online or mobile advertisements. As you use our website, your browser and devices communicate with servers operated by us, our business partners and service providers to coordinate and record the interactivity and fill your requests for services and information.

Our Site actively logs and records information of a non-personal nature such as referral websites, visits, length of sessions, domains, browser software and more. We aggregate and use this non-personal data to improve our website experience for you. We also record the IP address of the computers that visit our website.

We may also use third-party tools or services, such as Google Analytics, to assist us with analyzing and improving the Site or our services for School Representatives. These service providers are not permitted to use the information collected on our behalf except to help use conduct and improve our business.

We will also facilitate the implementation of third party tags and to deploy third party cookies and similar device tracking technologies; such tags will facilitate the collection of pseudonymous information relating to an individual’s interactions with our Services.

The information we collect also includes the Internet Protocol (“IP”) address or other device identifier (“Device Identifier”) for any device (computer, mobile phone, tablet, etc.) used to access the Services. A Device Identifier is a number that is automatically assigned or connected to the device you use to access the Services, and our servers identify your device by its Device Identifier. Some mobile service providers may also provide us or our third party service providers with information regarding the physical location of the device used to access the Services. If such information is linked to your Personal Information, we will treat it as Personal Information under this Privacy Statement.

Cookies and other web technologies.

We may also employ software technology known as “web beacons” or “tracking tags” to help us keep track of what content on our Site is effective and to serve relevant advertising to you. Web beacons are small graphics with a unique identifier that may be invisible to you, and which are used to track the online activity of Internet users. Web beacons are embedded in the web pages you review or email messages you receive. Web beacons or similar technologies may be used for a number of purposes, including, without limitation, to count visitors to our Site, to monitor how users navigate the Site, to count how many e-mails that were sent were actually opened, or to count how many particular articles or links were actually viewed.

  • Confirm whether we process their personal information.
  • Access and delete certain personal information.
  • Data portability.
  • Opt-out of personal data processing for targeted advertising and sales.

Student Privacy Pledge

SchoolMint is a signatory to the Student Privacy Pledge to safeguard student privacy regarding the collection, maintenance, and use of student personal information.

Federal and State Student Privacy Protection Laws

Student information that Authorized Users or School Representatives share with SchoolMint may be considered “educational records” under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act and the US Department of Education’s implementing regulations at 34 CFR Part 99 (collectively, “FERPA”). If you have questions about the collection and use of information through the Services, please contact your School, which controls the use of such information. SchoolMint takes student privacy seriously, and only uses information from or about students in accordance with the School’s instructions and consents procured by the School. As a service provider and “data processor” on behalf of Schools, SchoolMint may collect personal information about School Representatives and Authorized Users, including K-12 students, such as login credentials, name, addresses, telephone number, e-mail addresses, photographs or audio or video recordings.

In addition, we may also collect identifiable information from parents about their children in order to facilitate school enrollment, such as birth date, immunization records or other similar information. We use appropriate technical and organizational measures when we collect and use this information in accordance with the School’s instructions.

In addition, there are state student privacy acts that apply to the use of student information by service providers like SchoolMint.

California and Florida’s Student Online Privacy Protection Acts (“SOPIPA”) each require that SchoolMint does not knowingly engage in the following activities in connection with personally identifiable information from or about students (further defined the respective laws as “covered information”):

  • Engage targeted advertising on the covered service.
  • Use covered information for targeted advertising on other locations.
  • Develop student profiles using covered information for a non-K-12 school purpose.
  • Sell, share or rent covered information to third parties (except as part of a merger or business sale).
  • Disclose covered information, unless certain exceptions apply.

The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act

The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 and its rules (collectively, “COPPA”) requires SchoolMint to inform parents and legal guardians about our practices for collecting, using, and disclosing personal information from children under the age of 13. It also requires us to obtain verifiable consent from a child’s parent for certain collection, use, and disclosure of the child’s personal information, which a School has provided to SchoolMint on their behalf.

SchoolMint may collect personally identifiable information about children under age 13 from a School when a School identifies a child as an Authorized User of our products and services. If a School identifies a child under age 13 as an Authorized User, School Mint requires that the School provide appropriate consents to SchoolMint on behalf of parents prior to identifying a child as an Authorized User of a SchoolMint product or service. SchoolMint only collects this information for a School-authorized educational purpose and for no other purpose.

Please review our COPPA privacy policy for more information.

INFORMATION COLLECTION

We collect information from you when you choose to provide it to us. This may include when you create an account with us, sign up for our email lists or otherwise contact us.

User Generated Content

When School Representatives voluntarily disclose information about themselves in the content that they submit to us (e.g., personal information such as name, phone number and personal web address) or other public postings on the website, this information will be publicly available, can be collected and used by third parties and may result in unsolicited messages from others. Such activities are beyond our control. Please refrain from disclosing personal information on this website that you intend to keep private.

This information may include name, user name, demographic information, updated address or contact information, interests, and publicly-observed data, such as from social media and online activity.

Social Media

The Site also may permit additional interactions between it and a third-party website, service, or other content provider, such as enabling you to “like” or share content to a third party social media service (such as Facebook), or to share content from a third party social media service to our Site. If you choose to “like” or share content, or to otherwise share information from or via our Site with a third party site or service, that information may be publicly displayed, and the third party may have access to information about you and your use of our Site (and we may have access to information about you from that third party). Please note that your relationship with any social media service is governed solely by your agreement(s) with such social media service and your interactions with third parties through social media or similar features are governed by the respective privacy policies of those third parties.

As you use our website, your browser and devices communicate with servers operated by us, our business partners and service providers to coordinate and record the interactivity and fill your requests for services and information.

We will also facilitate the implementation of third party tags and to deploy third party cookies and similar device tracking technologies; such tags will facilitate the collection of pseudonymous information relating to an individual’s interactions with our Services.

The information we collect also includes the Internet Protocol (“IP”) address or other device identifier (“Device Identifier”) for any device (computer, mobile phone, tablet, etc.) used to access the Services. A Device Identifier is a number that is automatically assigned or connected to the device you use to access the Services, and our servers identify your device by its Device Identifier. Some mobile service providers may also provide us or our third party service providers with information regarding the physical location of the device used to access the Services. If such information is linked to your Personal Information, we will treat it as Personal Information under this Privacy Statement.

Cookies and other web technologies.

The data on your use of our Site may be linked to the personal Information you have chosen to share with us when you register as a School Representative.

We may also employ software technology known as “web beacons” or “tracking tags” to help us keep track of what content on our Site is effective and to serve relevant advertising to you. Web beacons are small graphics with a unique identifier that may be invisible to you, and which are used to track the online activity of Internet users. Web beacons are embedded in the web pages you review or email messages you receive.
