Children's Information
Another part of our priority is adding protection for children while using the internet. We encourage parents and guardians to observe, participate in, and/or monitor and guide their online activity.
We only collect personal information through the Services from a child we know is under the age of 13 (or under the age of 16 for a child in the European Union) (each a “child”) when we have parental consent or when a student’s school, district, and/or teacher has agreed (via the terms described in more detail in the Terms of Service) to obtain parental consent for that child to use the Services and disclose personal information to us, for the use and benefit of the learning environment. If you are a child, please do not send any personal information about yourself to us if your parent has not provided consent or your school, district, and/or teacher has not obtained this prior consent from your parent or guardian, and please do not send any personal information other than what we request from you in connection with the Services. If we learn we have collected personal information from a child without appropriate consent as outlined herein, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that a child may have provided us personal information in violation of this paragraph, please contact us at
