2.3 Third Party Services and Information Third Parties Provide About You.
The Services may permit interactions between the Services and a third-party feature or service. These third parties may provide us with information about you. Similarly, if you publicly post information on a third-party platform, such as a social media site that references Calvert or one of the Services, your post may be published on our Services in accordance with that third party’s terms. These features may collect your IP address or other unique identifier and which page you are visiting on our website and may also set a cookie to enable the third-party feature to function properly. When you use a third-party feature through the Services, the third party may also have access to information about you and your use of our Services. Your interactions with third-party links and features are governed by the privacy policies of the third parties.
The information we collect is subject to this Privacy Policy. The information collected and stored by the third party remains subject to the third party's privacy practices, including: whether the third party continues to share information with us, the types of information shared, and your choices with regard to what is visible to others on that third party website and service. The third party may allow you to remove the application or feature (in which case we will no longer collect information about you through the application or feature), but we may retain the information previously collected in compliance with all applicable laws.
Information We Collect Automatically
2.4 Usage Information. Like other websites and online services, we and our analytics providers, vendors and other third-party service providers may automatically collect certain "Usage Information" whenever you access and use the Services. Usage Information may include: the browser and operating system you are using, the URL that referred you to our Services (if applicable), the search terms you entered into a search engine that lead you to our Services (if applicable), all of the areas within our Services that you visit, the time of day you used the Services, and other information. We may use Usage Information for a variety of purposes, including to select appropriate content to display to you and to enhance or otherwise improve the Services and our products.
In addition, we automatically collect your IP address or other unique identifier ("Device Identifier") for any computer, mobile phone or other device (any, a "Device") you may use to access the Services. A Device Identifier is a number automatically assigned to the Device used to access a Service, 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 a Service, internet service provider (ISP), date and time of visit, browser language, browser type, referring and exit pages and URLs, amount of time spent on particular pages, which parts of our Services you use, which links you click, search terms, operating system, traffic and related statistics, keywords, and/or other general browsing or usage data. Usage Information is generally non-identifying, but if we associate it with you as a specific and identifiable person, we treat it as Personal Information.
2.5 Cookies. Like many other websites and apps, we use “cookies” (a small file sent to your computer by a website or device to allow the website or app to store information which uniquely identifies you) or other similar software to collect data in order to assist our users and provide them with a more personal experience visits in our Website or apps. For example, cookies help our systems recognize you if you return to our Services shortly after exiting them. You can always disable cookies at your browser or device’s settings, but please note that if you do so, some (or all) of the features and functionality of our Services may not be available to you.
2.6 How We Respond to Do Not Track Signals: Please note that your browser setting may allow you to automatically transmit a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal to websites and online service you visit. DNT is a privacy preference that users can set in certain web browsers to inform websites and services that they do not want certain information about their webpage visits collected over time and across websites or online services. However, we do not recognize or respond to browser-initiated DNT signals, as the internet industry is still working to determine what DNT means, how to comply with DNT, and how to create a common approach to responding to DNT. To find out more about "Do Not Track", please visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.
3. How does Calvert use the information it collects?

4. Will Calvert share any of the information it collects?
Calvert does not share your Personal Information with third parties for their marketing purposes. Calvert may share non-Personal Information (such as aggregate or de-identified user statistics, demographic information and Usage Information) with third parties.
We also may share your Personal Information with third parties with your consent (if permissible under applicable law), as disclosed at the time you provide us with information, and as described below or otherwise in this Privacy Policy:
4.1 Service Providers. We will share your Personal Information with third parties to provide services to us or you in connection with the Services. These disclosures will be subject to confidentiality obligations that limit their use and disclosure. For example, we may provide your Personal Information to companies that provide services to help us with our business activities, communicate with students and parents, send our e-mails, or offer customer service. Consumer payments are primarily processed and stored via third party services and we only receive the last four digits of the credit card number used for such transaction. If credit card information is provided directly to us, we will only retain such information for as long as is necessary for our legitimate business purposes.
4.2 Administrative, Legal Reasons & Academic Integrity Investigations. We may also disclose your information, including Personal Information as follows: (i) in response to a subpoena, court order, or when otherwise required by law; (ii) in response to bankruptcy proceedings; (iii) to defend our rights; (iv) in response to a request from law enforcement; (v) to provide information to a claimed owner of intellectual property who claims that content you have provided to us infringes on their rights; (vi) upon request of or as otherwise authorized by an academic institution connected to an investigation into academic integrity; (vii) to protect and/or defend any applicable terms of service or other policies applicable to the Services; or (viii) to protect the personal safety, rights, property or security of any organization or individual.
We may also use Device Identifiers (including IP addresses) to identify users and may do so in cooperation with copyright owners, Internet service providers, wireless service providers or law enforcement agencies in our discretion. These disclosures may be carried out without your consent or without notice to you.
4.3 Business Transitions. Calvert may share Personal Information with its parent company, subsidiaries and affiliates, and investors primarily for business and operational purposes so long as any recipient agrees to comply with this Privacy Policy and applicable law with regard to such Personal Information. In the event that Calvert goes through a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of all or a portion of its assets, a bankruptcy, or another corporate change (including, without limitation, during the course of any due diligence process) your information, including Personal Information, will likely be among the assets transferred.
You will be notified via e-mail and/or by a prominent notice on the Services of any completed change in ownership or uses of your Personal Information, as well as any choices you may have regarding your Personal Information. This Privacy Policy will become binding upon the new owner of the information until amended.
4.4 Testimonials. We may display personal testimonials of satisfied users or other endorsements on our Services. With your consent, we may post your testimonial along with your name. If you wish to update or delete your testimonial, you can contact us.
5. How does Calvert work with third parties?
5.1 Third-Party Advertising. Calvert does not currently use any user data to target advertisements or marketing on behalf of third parties. We do not mine user data for any purposes other than those agreed to by the parties. Data mining or scanning of user content for the purpose of advertising or marketing to children or their parents is prohibited.
5.2 Third-Party Providers. We work with third-party providers to provide us with services such as payment processing and to provide us with information regarding traffic on the Services, the features used when visiting the Services, and other information regarding the use of the Services.
5.3 Third-Party Content, Links to Other Sites, and Calvert Content Found Outside of the Services. Certain content provided through the Services may be hosted and served by third parties. In addition, the Services may link to third party websites or content over which Calvert has no control and which are governed by the privacy policies and business practices of those third parties.
Please also note that Calvert content may be included on web pages and websites that are not associated with us and over which we have no control. These third parties may independently collect data. Calvert is not responsible or liable for the privacy practices or business practices of any third party.
For more information about data we receive from third parties, please refer to Section 2.3 above.
6. What happens if I access Calvert’s services through a mobile device?
If you use the Services through a mobile device, you agree that Calvert may store and use certain information for security purposes (for example, for user verification or authentication).
7. How does Calvert protect children’s information?
Protecting the privacy of young children is especially important to Calvert. For this reason, we created certain features designed to help protect Personal Information relating to children who are less than 13 years of age or older if required by applicable law (“Child Users”).
Calvert does not knowingly permit children under 13 to use our Services without prior, express consent from a parent or legal guardian, except as permitted under the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Rule (“COPPA”). If we learn that Personal Information of a child under 13 has been collected on our Services without prior parental consent, we will take appropriate steps to delete this information. If you are a parent or guardian (“Parent”) and discover that your child under the age of 13 (or a higher age if required by applicable law) has a registered account with our Services without your consent, please contact Calvert to request that we delete that child’s personal information from our systems.
7.1 How Does a Parent Consent to Their Child’s Use of the Services? During the registration process, a Parent must consent to this Privacy Policy and our collection of data from their child. In compliance with COPPA, we verify that a Parent is in fact providing such consent by charging a credit card at the time of registration.
If a user is initially participating through a free trial, we may not collect credit card information at the time of registration. In such event, the parent will be required to verify their consent using another method. Specifically, a parent registering to participate using a free trial will receive an email with a verification code or link in order to complete the registration process. Access to the services will be prohibited until the verification is complete. If the parent abandons the registration process without providing the verification and does not return to complete the process within seven days, all data collected will be deleted in the ordinary course. During the term of the free trial, all data collected will only be used for internal purposes. Following the free trial period, the parent will be required to provide a credit card (at which time the charging of that credit card will be used as the verification of the parent’s consent and data can be used for any reason as set forth in this Privacy Policy). If the parent chooses not to extend the use of the Services after the end of the free trial period, all data collected will be deleted in the ordinary course.
7.2 How Does a Child Use the Services? Child Users can access our online curriculum Services through an account created by their Parent.
7.3 What Children’s Information is Visible to Others? No child’s information is made available or visible to the public through Calvert. Parents may view their children’s information at any time by logging into their account. A child’s teachers, counselors, and advisors at Calvert Academy may see that child’s information. Calvert Academy school administrators may see information about all children enrolled at the school.
8. How does Calvert protect and store my information?
Calvert takes data security very seriously. Calvert takes commercially reasonable technical, physical, and administrative security measures designed to protect the Personal Information submitted to us, both during transmission, upon receipt, and at rest. These measures vary depending on the sensitivity of the information at issue and include the following:
- We store your information in a database that is regularly backed up.
- Users can access and retrieve only their own information.
- For audio/visual recordings, data is encrypted and users can view only their own information.
- We periodically review our information collection, storage and processing practices, including physical security measures, to guard against unauthorized access to systems.
- We continually develop and implement features to keep your personal information safe - for example, all traffic to and from our application is over secure, encrypted protocols (SSL/TLS).
- We ensure passwords are stored securely using encryption and salted one-way hashing.
- Administrators are knowledgeable of security practices and harden the infrastructure with necessary patches.
- Our technical infrastructure is designed to prevent unauthorized access to protected information at multiple points in every transaction.
Please note that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is completely secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially reasonable means to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
8.1 How will Calvert Handle a Data Breach or Security Incident? In the event Calvert becomes aware of a data breach impacting your Personal Information, we will provide notification in compliance with all applicable laws. For example, we may post a notice on our homepage or elsewhere on the Service and may e-mail you at the e-mail address you have provided to us. Depending on where you live, you may have a legal right to receive notice of a security breach in writing.
Calvert has procedures in place that are designed to stop threats to your personally identifiable information, to restore Services to full functionality, and to document and take proactive steps to ensure that any incident cannot be repeated. Calvert will also preserve necessary evidence for investigation by security professionals and law enforcement as appropriate. In the unlikely event of an unauthorized disclosure of records, Calvert will follow its internal procedures, which articulate how to report the problem to internal and external stakeholders. The notification process includes any information that can identify which customers and children may have been impacted, the data that may have been accessed, Calvert’s process to inform affected customers, and steps to prevent the incident from happening again as appropriate.
In the unlikely event of an unauthorized disclosure of Data, Calvert has implemented a process for responding to incidents and notifying affected individuals (and, if applicable, law enforcement personnel).
If you have any questions about security on our Services, you can contact us at privacy@aop.com.
9. How can I opt-out of sharing, providing, or receiving certain information?
9.1 Providing Personal Information: You can always decline to share personal information with us, or even block all cookies.

11. What communications will I receive from Calvert and how do I limit them?
Calvert may post notices on the homepage of our website and/or may send users information by e-mail.

12. How do I close my account?

You typically will receive a response to a request sent to this account within five business days of our receiving it.
13. How long does Calvert keep my information?
Upon termination of your account, Calvert will take commercially reasonable steps to delete any Personal Information, excluding information relating to messages you sent to active users, from our live databases in a reasonable amount of time. You understand and agree that Calvert may continue to have Personal Information in archive files or similar databases. You further agree that Calvert has no obligation to delete aggregated or de-identified information. Calvert may retain and use aggregated and de-identified information for any purpose consistent with laws and regulations.
Even if your account is closed, information may remain in backup or archive records and we may retain certain data relevant to preventing fraud or future abuse or for legitimate business purposes, such as analysis of aggregated, non-personally identifiable or de-identified data, account recovery or if required by law. All retained data will continue to be subject to the applicable privacy policy for the Service.
14. How will Calvert notify me of changes to this policy?
We will notify you of material changes to the Privacy Policy on our Website and/or by e-mail and will make efforts to notify customers of material changes that impact the treatment of data collected through our Services.
Calvert may update this Privacy Policy at any time and any changes will be effective upon posting. Upon any update, the date at the top of this policy will be updated. In the event that there are material changes to the way we treat your Personal Information, you are responsible for regularly reviewing this Privacy Policy and your Calvert account for notice of such modifications. Your continued use of the Services following an update to this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.
15. What if I am a resident of California?
If you are a resident of the state of California, you have certain data protection rights. Calvert aims to take reasonable steps to allow you to correct, amend, delete, or limit the use of your Personal Information.
