What Type of Information Does Think Tech Solutions Collect?

  1. Information provided to us. When an Educator contracts with Think Tech Solutions to provide a service we may collect or have access to data, which may be provided by the Educator or in some cases the student. We consider Student Data (as defined below) to be strictly confidential and in general we do not use Student Data for any other purpose other than for providing the Services.
  2. The type of personal information that we collect depends on your account type:
    1. Educator information:
      1. In instances where the Educator is an individual, we may collect personal information such as the Educator’s name, email address, payment information, user name and password, and information related to the institution the Educator works for.
      2. Where the Educator is an intuition (an “Educational Institution”), we may collect information related to such Educational Institution’s employees including names, email addresses, and user name and password information related to such employees. We may also collect payment information from the Educational Institution.
    2. Student information. We do not intentionally collect and store information concerning students such as student names, identification numbers, passwords, email addresses, or educational level (“Student Data”). Students may provide user names which is readily identifiable only to the Educator. We do not intentionally collect any other personally identifiable information from student users.
  3. Educators may use the Services to upload, store, and access lesson plans and lesson plan materials. Educators use of the Services to store Student Data is prohibited. We provide the ability of users to report any material which violates our policy.
    1. We provide the service to Educators only and therefore do not offer accounts for students. Only Educators or educational institutions that have created licenses have the authority to provide consent on behalf of their students to use the Service. Some aspects of the Service may have interactive features that allow students to enter information that can be subsequently only viewed by their Educator related only to the lessons offered through other Services.
    2. All of the above referenced information that may be collected will be kept private and will not be shared with any third party. If you are a Parent of educator and believe that a child has provided Think Tech Solutions with personally identifiable information you should notify us immediately at 844-363-2748 so that the information may be deleted from our servers.

Does Think Tech Solutions Share Information with Third Parties

We may use certain trusted third parties to help us provide the Services (including but not limited to the storage of date, maintenance services, database management, internet analytics, email communication, and payment processing).

We use the following service providers: (i) Google Analytics to collect, analyze, and report data usage only with regard to the Site; (ii) Stripe to collect information and process payments for the Services; (iii) Hubspot to communicate with Educators; and (iv) Amazon Web Services to store your information.

In addition, should Think Tech Solutions become involved in a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, or some form of sale of its assets, your personal information may be transferred or disclosed in connection with such transaction. We will not transfer any data in the event of such transaction until the recipient of the data has committed to substantially similar privacy protections as set forth herein, or we will provide Educators with notice and an opportunity to opt out of the transfer of such information.

Finally, we may release user information if we have a good belief that such release is reasonably necessary to satisfy applicable law, comply with court orders, enforce our terms of service, detect or prevent fraud or protect the rights, property, or safety of our users or the public.
