School Calendars Now is strongly committed to your privacy. We want you to be confident that your School Calendars Now experience is safe and secure. If you have any additional privacy or security questions after reading this information, please contact us.

What kind of information does School Calendars Now collect from me, and what does School Calendars Now do with it?

School Calendars Now collects up to three different types of information from you when you use the School Calendars Now web site.

1. Personally Identifiable Information. In order for you to place a vote on School Calendars Now, we need to collect some limited personally identifiable information from you. Personally identifiable information means any information that may be used to identify you, including, but not limited to, your name, email address, and child’s school. You provide us with this personally identifiable information voluntarily through optional submissions. For example, when you place a vote to make your child’s Internet school calendar available, you are asked to submit your name and a valid e-mail address. We use this personally identifiable information to verify your vote and prevent fraud. We also use your email address to communicate with you about any School Calendars Now ongoing efforts and about related products and services, but you may choose to opt out of these mailings at any time.

WE DO NOT SHARE PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION WITH THIRD PARTIES OR SCHOOLS. School Calendars Now may use vendors or partners to administer its services. Such parties are also bound by these terms.

2. Public Content. Public content includes any information you submit to School Calendars Now in public forums. For example, you may voluntarily provide information about yourself when you participate in a School Calendars Now message board, blog, or other community feature that is accessible by general visitors and other users. This information is public content because anyone can view the content by visiting our site.

3. Non-Personally Identifiable Information. School Calendars Now collects non-personally identifiable information from you as you use the School Calendars Now web site. Similar to other web services, School Calendars Now automatically records information based on your use of the site. We do this to improve our service, and to customize content. We may share information with third parties that help us operate and improve the School Calendars Now service.

How does School Calendars Now protect children's information?

School Calendars Now takes protection of children and their personal information very seriously. We strictly comply with the federal Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998. School Calendars Now will never knowingly request personally identifiable information or private content from anyone under the age of 13 without parental consent.

Do you share my information with third parties or schools?

It is our policy to not share any information collected by us that is personally identifiable to you with third parties, except when we believe we are required to do so by law. We do share information that we collect in anonymous aggregate form with third parties.

How do I access or correct my information collected by School Calendars Now?

If you need to update your name or email address, please contact us.

What if I live outside of the United States?

The School Calendars Now site and services are hosted in the United States. If you are visiting our web site from outside the United States, you are transferring your personal data into the United States when you use the School Calendars Now service. Many regions, such as the European Union, have data collection protections that differ from U.S. law.

How does School Calendars Now maintain security?

School Calendars Now is strongly committed to protecting your information. School Calendars Now uses several industry best standard methods of securing user information and data. Examples of our security measures include, where appropriate, firewalls and secure socket layers. We also maintain strict limits on who at School Calendars Now can access the information databases that contain your information. Since there is no such thing as perfect security over the Internet, we cannot guarantee 100% security. However, in the unlikely case of a security breach on our databases, we will take immediate steps to resolve the problem swiftly and effectively.

Will there be changes and updates to this Privacy Policy?

We may occasionally update this privacy policy. When we do, we will also revise the "last updated" date. For changes to this privacy policy that may be materially less restrictive on our use or disclosure of your personal information, we will attempt to notify you by email of the change. We encourage you to review this privacy policy from time to time to stay informed about how we are protecting the personal information we collect. If you continue to use our site or services after we have attempted to contact you about material changes to the privacy policy, we will assume that you agree to the changes.
