COPPA and FERPA Privacy Policy and Notice

 

Children under the age of 13 shall only use the Services under an account created by and under their parent/guardian or school/educator and are specifically prohibited from the use of the Services otherwise. If Customer is a school or educator in the United States and wants its students to use the Services, Customer is and shall be responsible for complying with the U.S. Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (“FERPA”) and Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 and its rules (collectively, “COPPA”).

 

To the extent that calendrz.com has access to “education records,” as defined by the Family Educational Rights & Privacy Acts of 1974 and its implementing regulations (“FERPA”), it is deemed and shall function as a “school official” with “legitimate educational interests” when fulfilling its responsibilities under this Agreement, and both parties agree that Customer has “direct control” over the use of “education records” as these terms are defined under FERPA. Calendrz.com agrees to comply with its obligations under FERPA, including but not limited to the limitations on re-disclosure of personally identifiable information from education records set forth in FERPA and with the terms set forth below.

 

This means Customer shall notify those students’ parents/guardians of the personally identifiable information that it will collect and share with us and obtain parental/guardian consent before its students sign up or use the Services. When obtaining such consent, Customer shall provide parents/guardians with a copy of our Privacy Policies. Customer must keep all consents on file and provide them to us if we request them. Additionally, Customer shall be responsible for verifying the student parent relationship and shall be responsible for compliance with the right of a parent to review personal information provided by the child. Customer shall comply with such requirements by requesting and providing calendrz.com with a data subject request for the aforementioned data, or any changes to such data requested by parent, and providing the data to the parent after verification of the student parent relationship. If Customer is located outside of the United States, calendrz.com shall rely upon Customer and Customer shall obtain any required consents or approvals from the parent or guardian of any student covered by similar laws and, as a condition to Customer’s and its students’ use of the Services, Customer shall comply with such laws.
