TipityType's mission is to help teachers engage their students.
What information TipityType collects from you (and why we collect it).
• How we use and share that information.
• The choices you have, including how to access, update and delete your information.
• This Policy applies to all products and services offered by TipityType and affiliates.
• SECTIONS WRITTEN IN CAPITAL LETTERS ARE ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT FOR LEGAL COMPLIANCE, SO PLEASE MAKE SURE TO REVIEW THEM CAREFULLY.
We have done our best to write this Policy in simple, clear terms. We encourage you to read it carefully, together with any other privacy notice we may provide on specific occasions when we are collecting or processing personal information about you, so that you are aware of how and why we are using such information.
• Purpose of processing: provide access to and use of TipityType services (website and mobile apps).
• Additional information: to be found in TipityType's Terms of Service and this Privacy Policy.
Personal information is any information you provide to us that personally identifies you, like your name or email address, or any other information which we could reasonably link to your identity. We will only collect, use, and share your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. This Policy applies whether you use TipityType through TipityType.com (the “TipityType Website”), our mobile applications (the “TipityType Apps”), your school's Learning Management Systems (LMS) with which TipityType has been integrated (e.g., Google Classroom, Canvas, Moodle, Schoology, etc.) or any of our other products or services that link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Service”). In addition, this Privacy Policy also covers TipityType's treatment of any personal information about our users that our partners or other services might share with us.
This Policy does not apply to websites or services or practices of companies that TipityType does not own or control, such as third-party services you might access through links or other features (e.g., social media buttons; third-party integrations) on the Service. These other services have their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them before providing them with personal information.
To learn more about how we protect your privacy, send us an email at privacy@TipityType.com. BY USING THE SERVICE, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU ACCEPT AND AGREE TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY.
In collecting and processing your personal information, we will comply with the data protection laws and regulations in force at the time. This requires that the personal information we hold about you must be:
• Used lawfully, fairly and in a transparent way.
• Collected only for valid purposes that we have clearly explained to you and not used in a way that is incompatible with those purposes.
• Relevant to the purposes we have told you about and limited only to those purposes.
• Accurate and kept up-to-date.
• Kept only as long as necessary for the purposes we have told you about.
• Kept securely.
TipityType collects personal information from users in order to provide the Service. Concretely, the personal information of students and teachers is collected and used for the following purposes:
• To create the necessary accounts to use the Service.
• To provide teachers with analytics on student progress.
• To send email updates to teachers, if applicable.
• To assess the quality of the Service.
• To secure and safeguard personal information.
• To access premium features, if applicable.
• To comply with all applicable laws on the protection of personal information.
Your rights relating to your personal information include:
• to be informed about how TipityType uses your personal information;
• to request access to personal information held by TipityType, and to have any incorrect, inaccurate or incomplete personal information rectified;
• where appropriate, to restrict processing concerning you or to object to processing;
• to have personal information erased where there is no compelling reason for its continued processing; and
• where applicable, to portability of personal data, that is to say, to receive your personal information in a structured and commonly used format.
We require that your personal information is accurate. Please let us know if the personal information you provided us for creating your account has changed. If we do not have the correct information, we cannot take responsibility for information-related errors.
Additionally, if we determine that you are in violation of this Policy, you will be subject to disciplinary action that could eventually lead to the banning of your account.
We try to be transparent about what information we collect, so that you can make meaningful choices about how it is used. For example, you can:
• Opt-out of providing certain information.
• Access and manage your account information by using the account settings within TipityType.
• Control who you share information with.
• Remove information from TipityType.
• Take information out of TipityType.
When providing you with information on the processing of your personal information, such as its collection, transfer to other countries, types or identity of third parties to which we disclose that information and the purposes for which we do so, we will make sure that such information is provided in clear and understandable language. Also, initial notice on our practices and policies will be provided when you are first asked to provide personal information to us, or as soon as practicable thereafter, and in any event before we use the information for a purpose other than that for which it was originally collected.
We will offer you the opportunity to choose (by either opting-out or opting-in) if your personal information is (a) to be disclosed to a third party different from those listed in this Privacy Policy, or (b) to be used for a purpose materially different from the purpose for which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized by you.
We will only use your personal information for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason which is compatible with the original purpose. If we need to use your personal information for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.
When, as a teacher or school representative, or when acting on behalf of a company or other organization, you create an TipityType account, you provide your first and last name and an email address. We require those data elements for you to enter into the Terms of Service agreement with us, and we process those elements on the basis of performing that contract.
If you are a teacher or school representative, or use the Service on behalf of a company or other organization, note that TipityType provides its Service upon explicit consent given by you when signing up. Prior to signing up, we will direct you to our Terms of Use and this Privacy Policy. When signing up, you will be declaring to have read such policies and to consent to them. Remember, nonetheless, that you will be able to withdraw your consent at any time by deleting your account in accordance with this Policy's Managing My Information section.
EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS UTILIZING THE SERVICE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR MONITORING THE RIGHTS AND INTERESTS OF THEIR STUDENTS AND MUST THEREFORE TAKE SPECIAL CARE WHEN REVIEWING THIS PRIVACY POLICY. EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR OBTAINING, WHERE APPLICABLE, PERTINENT CONSENT FROM PARENTS, LEGAL GUARDIANS OR ELIGIBLE STUDENTS (THOSE WHO ARE 18 YEARS OF AGE OR ATTEND A POSTSECONDARY INSTITUTION) PRIOR TO UTILIZING THE SERVICE. TipityType SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY NEGLIGENCE OF THE EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION IN THE REVIEWING OF THIS PRIVACY POLICY OR THE OBTAINMENT, WHERE APPLICABLE, OF THE NECESSARY PARENTAL CONSENT.
U.S. Educational Institutions and Parental Consent: Consistent with the requirements of COPPA, if you or your school decide to utilize the Service with children under 13, you will be electing to either obtain parental consent or to consent on behalf of the children's parents directly, which is commonly referred to as "school consent." At the same time, yet subject to exceptions, FERPA prohibits schools from disclosing personally identifiable information from a student's education record to a third party without written consent from the parent or eligible student. Accordingly, schools must either obtain parental consent, or ensure that their use of TipityType meets one of FERPA's exceptions to the written consent requirement. Typically, schools are exempted from obtaining parental consent under FERPA when TipityType is identified as a "school official," meaning TipityType is performing an institutional service or function for which the school would otherwise use its own employees.
European Educational Institutions and GDPR: According to article 8 of the GDPR, minors shall be entitled to give valid consent only if they are 16 years old (unless Member States have set a lower age limit which, nonetheless, cannot be under 13 years old). Under that age limit, processing of personal information related to minors shall be subject to parental consent. Schools are in control of their students' personal information and are obliged to take all necessary measures for protecting said information. This means that schools will have to be especially cautious when contracting any service that may require disclosure of student personal information. In other words, schools are data controllers in terms of GDPR and thus determine the purposes and means of the processing of student personal data. As a consequence, schools will also be responsible for informing students and their parents accordingly about what data is collected, which are the purposes of collection, how data is used and to which third parties it is disclosed, including TipityType.
We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy from time to time, to stay informed about our collection, use, and disclosure of personal information through the Service. If you do not agree with any changes to the Privacy Policy, you may delete your account (although we will be sad to see you go!). By continuing to use the Service after the revised Privacy Policy has become effective, you acknowledge that you accept and agree to the current version of the Privacy Policy.
TipityType collects the minimal amount of information from students necessary to create accounts on our Service: we ask students to sign in using their Google account which collects their name, email, and profile image URL. Beyond this information, students can submit responses, comments, audios or images depending on the activities they are assigned, which will remain private between teacher and student. All this information will only be used for the purposes of the school/teacher.
We use this information to provide the Service to the child, for security and safety purposes, or as required by law or to enforce our Terms. We will not require children to provide more personal information than is reasonably necessary in order to participate in the Service. If we discover that we have collected information from a child in a manner inconsistent with COPPA, FERPA or any other applicable laws or regulations, we will take appropriate steps to delete the information. We do not disclose any personal information about children to third parties, except to service providers necessary to provide the Service, as required by law, or to protect the security of the Service or other users. Information collected from students (including personal information and information collected automatically) is never used or disclosed for third-party advertising, including any kind of first- or third-party behaviorally targeted advertising, and children's personal information is never sold or rented to anyone, including marketers or advertisers.
No student's profile is made available or visible to the public, or to any other students, through TipityType. Teachers may share their classes, including grades or scores, with other teachers they co-teach with in their school, to help them collaborate. If the teacher chooses to display TipityType in their classroom, either by utilizing the "live mode" feature of the Service or by projecting via a smartboard or interactive whiteboard, students physically present in that classroom may see other students' names, responses, comments or total scores.
EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS AND TEACHERS SHALL MAKE A RESPONSIBLE USE OF THE SERVICE AND AVOID COMPROMISING CHILDREN'S PERSONAL INFORMATION AT ALL TIMES WHEN DISPLAYING TipityType IN THE CLASSROOM. TipityType SHALL NOT BE HELD LIABLE FOR THE INAPPROPRIATE USE OF THE SERVICE BY THE EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION OR THE TEACHER.
We only keep a child's personal information for as long as his or her student account is active, unless we are required by law to retain it, need it to ensure the security of our community or our Service, or to enforce our Terms:
Minimal information: As mentioned before, TipityType collects the minimal amount of information from students necessary to create accounts on our Service: through the Google sign-in process, a students' first name, last name, email, and profile image URL. Consistent with the requirements of FERPA and COPPA in the United States and of GDPR in Europe, among other applicable laws, we only collect, use, share, and retain student personal information for purposes for which we were authorized by the educational institution/agency, teacher or the student. Beyond this information, students can submit responses, comments, audios or images depending on the activities they are assigned, that will remain private between teacher and student.
Deleting inactive accounts: If a student's account is inactive for eighteen (18) months or more (meaning the student has not used his or her account), TipityType will automatically delete the student account, including all personal information provided by the student or collected by TipityType from the student, as well as questions, responses or comments associated with the account. The mentioned eighteen (18) month term has been calculated in accordance with the estimated use of the Service, which usually coincides with an entire school year, plus an additional period of time in case teachers want to renew the use of the Service.
After deletion of the account TipityType may retain copies and/or backups of the mentioned information for a maximum term of thirteen (13) months. Nevertheless, TipityType shall not be responsible for the accidental loss or destruction of data on behalf of users. TipityType will not be obliged to recover erased data stored in backups when erasure is attributable to users.
EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS UTILIZING THE SERVICE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR COMPLYING WITH THE RETENTION OF STUDENT EDUCATION RECORDS FOR AS LONG AS LEGALLY APPLICABLE. STUDENT PROGRESS MAY BE SAVED FOR EITHER SHORTER OR LONGER PERIODS THAN THE ONES STATED ABOVE IF SO DECIDED BY THE EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION. TEACHER ACCOUNTS WILL BE PROVIDED WITH NECESSARY TOOLS TO MANAGE AND DELETE STUDENT INFORMATION.
TipityType SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ERASURE OF STUDENT PROGRESS DUE TO ACCOUNT DELETION AFTER AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF INACTIVITY OR BECAUSE OF THE VOLUNTARY ELECTION TO DELETE TEACHER ACCOUNTS. SCHOOL OFFICIALS MAY REQUEST DELETION OF STUDENT INFORMATION AND CONTENT AT ANY TIME BY CONTACTING TipityType AT PRIVACY@TIPITYTYPE.COM.
Any parents that want copies of their children's personal information that we may have stored can contact their children's school personnel to that end. At any time, the school can also refuse to permit us to collect further personal information from its students, and can request that we delete the personal information we have collected from them by contacting us at privacy@tipitytype.com. Please keep in mind that deleting records may require us to terminate the account in question. Also remember that before we can share the information with the school, or delete it per your request, we will, by reasonable means, proceed to verify the identity of the requester.
We collect two types of information about you: (1) information that you voluntarily provide us by using the TipityType Service (described below under "Information you provide to us") and (2) information collected automatically as result of your use of the Service (described below under “Information collected automatically”). The types and amounts of information collected will vary depending on whether the user is a teacher or student (e.g. we collect minimal information from students) and how they use TipityType (e.g. if teachers join their school, we may need to collect school address information).
There are currently two categories of users on our Service: teachers and students. We collect and store the following types of information from each type of user:
Account Sign-up and Profile Information: To create an TipityType account as a teacher, you may be asked to provide some basic information such as your first and last name, email address, password and profile photo. If you create an TipityType account as a student, you will be asked to enter your first name, last name, email, and profile photo (URL). No student profile is made available or visible to the general public through the functionality of our Service.
School Information and Collaboration Features: If you are a teacher, as part of the profile information you provide, you may be asked to choose to associate your account with an existing school or you may enter a new school name and possibly your school's address if we do not have it already. If you are using the Service as a teacher, we may ask you for permission to collect and store your precise geolocation information to help us identify schools located nearby for you. By connecting you with your school, the Service may enable and provide additional collaboration features for teachers within the same school.
Class Information: As a teacher you can view and select Google Classroom classes and their assosicated rosters for the purpose of management.
Like most web-based services, we (or our service providers) may automatically receive and log information on our server logs from your browser or your device when you use the Service. For example, this could include the frequency and duration of your visits to TipityType (similar to TV ratings that indicate how many people watched a particular show). If you use TipityType on different devices, we may link the information we collect from those different devices to help us provide a consistent Service across your different devices. If we do combine any automatically-collected information with personal information, we will treat the combined information as personal information, and it will be protected as per this Privacy Policy.
Cookies and Other Similar Technologies: We (or our service providers) may use various technologies to collect and store information when you visit our Service, including clear GIFs (also known as “web beacons”), “tags”, “scripts”, and “cookies”. We also make use of persistent secure cookies: persistent cookie remains after you close your browser (although they can be removed) and may be used by your browser to identify you on subsequent visits to the Service. We may also use, collect and store information locally on your device using mechanisms such as browser web storage (including HTML 5). Like many services, TipityType uses these technologies to tailor the Service for you, and to help the Service work better.
Log Information: Like most online services, when you use our Service, we automatically collect and store certain information in our server logs. Examples include:
• Details of how you used our service, such as your activity on the Service, and the frequency and duration of your visits to the TipityType Website or TipityType App (similar to TV ratings that indicate how many people watched a particular show).
• This information helps us make decisions about what we should work on next - for example, by showing which features are most (or least!) popular.
Location Information: When you use our Service we may collect and process information about your geographic location, for example through GPS, Bluetooth, or Wi-Fi signals. We collect coarse (i.e., city-level) location data. We will not store or track your device location on an ongoing basis or without your permission. We do not share precise geolocation data with third parties, other than our service providers as necessary to provide the Service.
Learning Management System (LMS) Interfaces: If you are a teacher, we may use profiling or other forms of automated processing to show you personalized content and make recommendations through the web and/or email based on, but not limited to, your usage, subject area, school and country. If you are a student (or the parent or legal guardian of a student), we may use profiling or other forms of automated processing to provide your teacher or teachers with analytics on your progress, depending on the videos you have watched and responses to quizzes you have submitted.
First and foremost, you should know that TipityType does not sell or rent any of your, or your students' personal information to any third party for any purpose including for advertising or marketing purposes. We use the information we collect from you to provide you with the best TipityType experience. More specifically, this information is used to:
• Provide and improve the Service, for example by developing new products and features.
• Respond to your requests for information or customer support.
• Customize the Service for you, and improve your experience with it.
• Send you information about new features and TipityType products we believe you may be interested in.
• Most crucially, to protect our community by making sure the Service remains safe and secure.
• We use automatically collected information (described in the "Information Collected Automatically" section above) to provide and support our Service, and for the additional uses described in this section of our Privacy Policy.
We store your personal information for as long as it is necessary to provide products and Services to you and others, including those described above. As a general rule, if your account is inactive for eighteen (18) months or more (meaning you have not logged into your account during that time), TipityType will delete your account.
Note we may retain and use de-identified data (i.e., data which has been stripped off all information that can be used to identify a person) for purposes of research, improvement of our products and services, and/or the development of new products and services. We may also have to retain some information after your account is deleted, to comply with legal obligations, to protect the safety and security of our community or our Service, or to prevent abuse of our Terms. In addition to the policy above that applies to all users, we only keep a student's personal information while the student's account is active, unless we are required by law to retain it or need it to ensure the security of our community or our Service, or to enforce our Terms.
The Service may now or in the future include social media features, such as the Facebook Like button, and the Twitter Tweet button. These social media features may collect your IP address, which page you are visiting on our site, and may set a cookie to enable the feature to function properly. Social media features and widgets are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly on our website. Your interactions with these social media features are governed by the privacy policy of the company providing each social media feature. If you are not comfortable accessing such social media websites and using such social media features, please don't use them!
First and foremost, you should know that TipityType does not sell or rent your, or your students' personal information to any third party for any purpose - including for advertising or marketing purposes. Furthermore, we do not share personal information with any third parties except in the limited circumstances described in this Privacy Policy:
• Other Users You Share and Communicate with on TipityType: No student profiles are made available to the general public through our Service. Furthermore, students cannot share their account information with anyone on TipityType. If you are a teacher you may choose to share information or content through the Service with other TipityType teachers - for example, things like your account information or videos. Please keep in mind that information (including personal information or children's personal information) or content that you voluntarily disclose to others - including other TipityType users you interact with through the Service can be viewed, copied, stored, and used by the people you share it with. We cannot control the actions of people with whom you choose to share information.
• Third-party Integrations on Our Service: When, as a teacher, you use third-party apps, websites or other services that use, or are integrated with, our Service, they may receive information about what you post or share. For example, when you invite others via Facebook or Twitter, these services receive the information that you share through this functionality, and information that you are sharing this from TipityType. Information collected by these apps, websites or integrated services is subject to their own terms and policies.
• Legal Requirements: We may disclose personal information if we have a good faith belief that doing so is necessary to comply with the law, such as complying with a subpoena or other legal process. We may need to disclose personal information where, in good faith, we think it is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of TipityType, our employees, our community, or others, or to prevent violations of our Terms of Service or other agreements. This includes, without limitation, exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection or responding to government requests.
• With your Consent: Other than the cases above, we won't disclose your personal information for any purpose unless you consent to it. Additionally, as discussed above, we will never sell or rent your personal information to advertisers or other third parties.
TipityType does not track its users over time and across third-party websites to provide targeted advertising and therefore does not respond to Do Not Track (DNT) signals. For more information on “do not track,” please visit www.allaboutdnt.org.
Third parties that have content embedded on our website, such as a social feature, may set cookies on a user's browser and/or obtain information about the fact that a web browser visited the TipityType website from a certain IP address. Third parties cannot collect any other personally identifiable information from TipityType's website unless you provide it to them directly.
Your TipityType account is protected by using Google Sign-In authorization. You can help us protect your account from unauthorized access by keeping your password secret at all times. The security of your personal information is important to us. We work hard to protect our community, and we maintain administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect against unauthorized use, disclosure of or access to personal information, such as:
• Security Protocols: We periodically review our information collection, storage and processing practices, including physical security measures, to protect against unauthorized access to systems.
• Security Technology: We continually develop and implement features to keep your personal information safe - for example, when you enter any information anywhere on the Service, we encrypt the transmission of that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL) by default.
Upon request and in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations, we will grant you reasonable access to your personal information that is held by TipityType. In addition, we will take reasonable steps to permit you to correct, amend, or delete your personal information that is demonstrated to be inaccurate, incomplete or processed in violation of this Privacy Policy. It is TipityType's goal to provide you with easy access to any personal information we have collected about you. If that information is incorrect, we also want to make sure to give you easy ways to update it, or delete it, unless we have to keep that information for legal purposes.
• Accessing Your Information: To request access to the personal information we have about you on file, any school personnel can contact us at privacy@tipitytype.com. In some cases, we will not be able to guarantee complete access due to legal restrictions; for example, you will not be allowed to access files that contain information about other users or information that is confidential to us. Furthermore, we may not be able to fulfill requests that are unreasonably repetitive, require disproportionate technical effort or would be extremely impractical.
• Limitations: Without prejudice to the aforementioned, please note that we may limit or deny access to personal information (a) where the burden or expense of providing access would be disproportionate to the risks to your privacy; (b) where the legitimate rights of persons other than you would be violated or if necessary to safeguard important countervailing public interests (e.g., national security) or in other limited circumstances (e.g., disclosure would breach a legal privilege), and (c) where applicable law or regulatory requirements allow or require us to refuse to provide some or all of the personal information that we hold about you. In addition, the personal information may have been destroyed, erased or made anonymous in accordance with our record retention obligations and practices. In the event that we cannot provide you with access to your personal information, we will endeavour to inform you of the reasons why, subject to any legal or regulatory restrictions.
We hope you will love using TipityType now and always. However, if for some reason you ever want to delete your account, any school official can do that at any time by contacting us at privacy@tipitytype.com and we will proceed to delete the requested data within five (5) business days. Parents, legal guardians, or eligible students may delete their accounts by contacting their educational institution.
When we delete your account, we delete any personal information that you provided in your profile (such as your name, email address, and profile photo) and depending on the category of the user you are (i.e., teacher or student) , also questions, responses and comments. Please note that information that you have shared with others, that others have shared about you, or content other users may have copied and stored, is not part of your account and may not be deleted when you delete your account.
Access to the Service by the students is subject to the obtainment of a specific code provided by the teacher. The school is, at the same time, responsible for its students' personal information and in control of student academic records. As a consequence, modification or deletion of student personal information that is part of or affects student academic records is subject to the school's discretion.
In a co-teaching setting, all teachers are considered equally responsible and accountable for the class. Responsibility for the modification or deletion of student information, or grading of assignments among any other related features shall be exclusively of the teachers.
TipityType SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DELETION OF THE CLASS OR PART OF ITS CONTENT, OR FOR THE ERASURE OR DELETION OF STUDENT PROGRESS OR STUDENT ACCOUNTS, BY ANY OF THE TEACHERS PARTICIPATING IN THE CO-TEACHING CLASS.
You may file a complaint concerning TipityType's processing of your personal data to privacy@tipitytype.com or by regular mail to the following address:
