Welcome! You have arrived at an online service location (e.g., website or mobile app) that is owned and/or operated by Math Ally (collectively, "Math Ally," "we," "our" or "us"). This "Privacy Policy" governs your use of any online service location (e.g., website or mobile app) that posts a link to this Privacy Policy (each a "Site"), including, without limitation, both mobile and online versions of the Site.
It also applies to your use of interactive features, widgets, plug-ins, applications, content, downloads and/or other services that: (i) we own and control and make available through a Site; or (ii) that post a link to the Privacy Policy (collectively with each Site, the "Service"). It applies regardless of how you access or use the Service, whether via personal computers, mobile devices or otherwise.
It does not apply to data we receive from third parties except to the extent we combine such data with Personal Information that we have ourselves collected under this Privacy Policy.

We may share any non-Personal Information, such as aggregated user statistics, with third parties. We do not share your Personal Information that we have collected from you on our Service with third parties for those third parties' direct marketing purposes unless you consent to such sharing at the time you provide your Personal Information.
WHEN YOU REQUEST INFORMATION FROM OR PROVIDE INFORMATION TO THIRD PARTIES. You may be presented with an option on our Service to receive certain information and/or marketing offers directly from third parties or to have us send certain information to third parties. If you choose to do so, your Personal Information and other information may be disclosed to such third parties and all information you disclose will be subject to the third-party privacy policies and practices of such third parties.
THIRD PARTIES PROVIDING SERVICES ON OUR BEHALF. We may use third-party vendors to perform certain services on behalf of us or the Service, such as hosting the Service, designing and/or operating the Service's features, tracking the Service's activities and analytics. We may provide these vendors with access to user information, including Device Identifiers and Personal Information, to carry out the services they are performing for you or for us. We require them to safeguard your Personal Information and not to use your Personal Information for their own purposes without your express consent.

We reserve the right to disclose and transfer all such information in connection with a merger, consolidation, restructuring, the sale of substantially all of our interests and/or assets or other corporate change.
What About Information I Disclose Publicly or to Others?
USER-GENERATED CONTENT AND PUBLIC INFORMATION. Some aspects of the Service may allow you to create your own profile, which may be displayed publicly or semi-publicly. Additionally, the Service may permit you to submit and/or publicly post ideas, photographs, lessons, writings, video, audio recordings, data, questions, comments, suggestions or other content, including Personal Information (collectively, "User Content"). We or others may store, display, reproduce, publish, distribute or otherwise use User Content online or offline in any media or format.
Postings to chat rooms, message boards, other users' profiles, bulletin boards, or similar public forums where you and other users of our Service can communicate are public or semi-public, and therefore may be reviewed by users and non-users, indexed by third-party search engines and appear in search results on third-party websites. Accordingly, you should exercise discretion and good judgment regarding what you elect to include as User Content.
NAME AND LIKENESS. We may also publish your name, voice, likeness and other Personal Information that is part of your User Content, and we may use the content, or any portion of the content, for advertising, marketing, publicity and promotional activities.
Do Third-Party Content, Links, and/or Apps Appear on the Service?
The Service may contain content that is supplied by a third party, and those third parties may collect Usage Information and your Device Identifier when pages from the Service are served to you. In addition, when you are on the Service you may be directed to other sites that are operated and controlled by third parties that we do not control.
We are not responsible for the data collection and privacy practices employed by any of these third parties or their services and they may be tracking you across multiple sites and may be sharing the results of that tracking with us and/or other sites. These other sites may associate their Tracking Technologies with you, independently collect data about you, including Personal Information, and may or may not have their own published privacy policies.
Third-party applications may also be available via the Service. We are not responsible for how these third parties or their applications collect or use your information. Be sure to review any available policies before submitting any personally identifiable information to a third-party application or otherwise interacting with it.
Ads and Information About You
The Service may use third parties such as network advertisers and ad exchanges to serve advertisements on and off of the Service and may use third-party analytics and other service providers to evaluate and provide us and/or third parties with information about the use of the Service and viewing of ads and of our content.
Network advertisers are third parties that display advertisements based on your visits and activities across the Internet and mobile media ("Behavioral Ads"). In addition, we may serve ads on our Service based on your Usage Information from your activities on our Service ("Contextual Ads"). Behavioral Ads and Contextual Ads enable us to target advertisements to you for products and services in which you might be interested.
If you object to Behavioral Ads, you may visit http://www.networkadvertising.org/optout_nonppii.asp, which provides information regarding this practice by Network Advertising Initiative ("NAI") members, and your choices regarding having this information used by these companies. You may also visit http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ for information about the Digital Advertising Alliance ("DAA") opt-out program.
How Do I Change My Information and Communications Preferences?
You are responsible for maintaining the accuracy of the information you submit to us, such as your contact information provided as part of registration. The Service may allow you to review, correct or update Personal Information you have provided through the Service's registration forms or otherwise, and you may provide registration updates and changes, and otherwise request access to your information, by contacting us at [email protected].
With respect to our mobile and other applications, you can prospectively stop all collection of information by the application by uninstalling the application. You may use the standard uninstall process as may be available as part of your applicable device or via the appropriate application marketplace.
You may cancel or modify our e-mail marketing communications you receive from us by following the instructions contained within our promotional e-mails or in some cases by logging into your account and changing your communication preferences.
What Should Parents Know About Children?
We understand the importance of protecting children's privacy in the interactive world. We do not use the Service to knowingly collect Personal Information from children under the age of thirteen (13) without verified parental consent or as otherwise permitted by applicable law. Furthermore, most of the portions of our Service that are directed to children 12 years and under are designed so that we do not collect Personal Information at all.
In the event that we become aware that we have collected Personal Information from any child absent the parental consent required by COPPA, or as otherwise permitted by COPPA, we will dispose of that information in accordance with applicable law. If you are a parent or guardian and you believe that your child under the age of 13 has provided us with information without your consent, please contact us at [email protected] and we will take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is deleted from our files.
What About Security?
We incorporate commercially reasonable technical, physical and administrative safeguards to help protect and secure your Personal Information in our custody or control. However, no data transmission over the Internet, mobile networks, wireless transmission or electronic storage of information can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
Please note that we cannot ensure the security of any information you transmit to us, and you use our Service and provide us with your information at your own risk.
What About Changes to the Privacy Policy?
We reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time without notice to you. Any changes will be effective immediately upon the posting of the revised Privacy Policy and your use of the Service indicates your consent to the privacy policy posted at the time of use.
However, we will not use your previously-collected Personal Information in a manner materially different than represented at the time it was collected without your consent. To the extent any provision of this Privacy Policy is found by a competent tribunal to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be severed to the extent necessary for the remainder to be valid and enforceable.
Questions about this Privacy Policy?
If you have questions, comments or complaints regarding our Privacy Policy or the manner in which we treat your Personal Information, please contact us.
