Privacy Policy

Introduction

This is the Privacy Policy of ePrep, Inc. ("ePrep"), a Delaware corporation with its principal office located in Readfield, Maine, for the College Equipped Readiness Tool ("CERT") and related products, current and future, which could include, but are not limited to, the Graduation Planner, TSIA2, End-of-Year Course Programs, the Vocabulary Builder, and the Test-Day Monitor/AI Defender (CERT, together with the related products, shall be collectively referred to herein as the "CERT Products"). As you may know, ePrep hosts the CERT Products through a website with a homepage located at https://certforschools.com/ (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy sets forth ePrep's policies related to the collection, use, and maintenance of information obtained from schools, school districts, libraries, and other organizations, and from parents and students, like you, who visit the Site to use the CERT Products.

Please know that your privacy is very important to all of us at ePrep and we are committed to respecting and protecting the personal information you share with us online ("Your Personal Information"). We understand that you want to retain as much control as possible over Your Personal Information and we further recognize your desire to have Your Personal Information appropriately collected, used, and maintained by ePrep. ePrep also confirms that this Privacy Policy will apply to all successor entities and assigns unless you are otherwise notified of a change to the Privacy Policy as outlined below.

Acceptance of Terms

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully because, by consenting to this policy, you acknowledge and accept the terms of this Privacy Policy. ePrep reserves the right, from time to time, to modify, revise, and update the terms of this Privacy Policy. We will notify you, your teachers, and your school administrators of any material changes in this Privacy Policy and require your acknowledgement and consent to any such new Privacy Policy.

Your Personal Information

We collect your personal information ("Your Personal Information") when a teacher or other administrator at your school registers you for a student account. Your Personal Information is provided by your school and may include your name, student ID, email address, date of birth, graduation year, gender, and ethnicity, along with your status with regard to free or reduced lunch, English language learner, student with disability, and individualized education plan recipient. We also collect Your Personal Information when you (and, in the case of the Graduation Planner, you and your family) visit the Site to use any, or all, of the CERT Products. As we collect Your Personal Information, we safeguard its privacy by using measures that are legally required and both customary and commercially reasonable. Your student account is password protected, as are all teacher and administrator accounts. Please note that certain teachers and administrators at your school have access to Your Personal Information that your school provides to us, including your account password. The information that these teachers and school administrators have access to is the same information that they would otherwise have access to from other sources at your school. ePrep has no control over, and is therefore not responsible for, the use or misuse of Your Personal Information by such teachers and/or administrators at your school.

We use Your Personal Information for educational and school purposes only. In other words, we use Your Personal Information to provide you with the products and/or services included in your student account. We also use Your Personal Information to create reports for your teachers and the administrators at your school. Again we maintain the privacy of Your Personal Information by using measures that are legally required and both customary and commercially reasonable.

You and your parents have the right and ability to review and correct Your Personal Information directly through your student account, by contacting ePrep directly or through one of your teachers or school administrators.

ePrep confirms that it only retains Your Personally Identifiable information as necessary to deliver the educational and school services it provides. Once Your Personally Identifiable information is no longer required for the provision of these services, ePrep periodically de-identifies any data that it does keep for educational purposes according to its policies and procedures.

Notwithstanding any of the forgoing, ePrep reserves the right to disclose Your Personal Information, if it is (i) required by law to be disclosed, (ii) material to a legal proceeding, (iii) or ordered to be disclosed by a government body or court of competent jurisdiction.

Your IP Address and Other Data

We collect data when you visit and use the Site. This data is incorporated into Your Personal Information and includes, but is not limited to, your IP (Internet Protocol) address and information like your browser type, operating system, domain name, platform, connection speed, and referring web site addresses. We use this information and that of all, or at times some, of other users of the CERT Products like your classmates to generate reports for your teachers and school administrators for educational purposes only. We also use this information to generate statistics to help us understand how visitors use the Site, in general, and specific pages of the Site, in particular.

Use of Your Personal Information

Your Personal Information will not be used by ePrep for non-educational purposes. Your Personal Information will not be sold to third parties. ePrep does not allow advertising of any kind to any of its users (such as students, teachers, or school administrators). In the rare circumstance that Your Personal Information is shared with a third party in order to facilitate the delivery of the educational services provided, ePrep ensures that those third parties are subject to the same Privacy Policy as outlined herein.

Security

ePrep is concerned with the security of Your Personal Information. ePrep has implemented a comprehensive internal security policy as part of its Standard Policies & Procedures and Business Continuity Plan that is intended to protect the loss, misuse, and alteration of Your Personal Information and is consistent with its legal obligations and standard industry practices. Such plans include, but are not limited to, a secure network and database that are password protected and firewall secured, as appropriate. Furthermore, except as otherwise provided for herein, only authorized ePrep employees have access to Your Personal Information and all employees are required to be familiar with this Privacy Policy and ePrep's general policies regarding the treatment of Your Personal Information and data security.
