The Student Privacy Pledge

The Student Privacy Pledge, an industry standard of high privacy principles for providers of K–12 educational services. As part of our commitment to The Pledge, we are committed to the following core principles with respect to our collection and use of Student Data through the provision of the Mavis service:

• We do not collect, maintain, use, or share Student Data other than as needed for an authorized educational or school purpose, or as authorized by our agreement with a school.
• We do not use or disclose Student Data collected through the Mavis service for behavioral targeting of advertisements to students.
• We do not build or create a personal profile of a student other than in furtherance of a K–12 school purpose, or as authorized by a parent.
• We do not knowingly retain Student Data beyond the time period required to support the school's purpose, unless authorized by the parent.
• We will maintain a comprehensive data security program that is reasonably designed to protect the security, privacy, confidentiality, and integrity of Student Data against risk through the use of administrative, technological, and physical safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information.
• We clearly and transparently explain our data policies and practices in our agreements and in our Privacy Policy.
• We support access to and correction of Student Data by the student or parent by assisting the school in meeting these requirements.
• We require that our vendors and service providers are bound through a written contract to maintain the same level of privacy protections as we do in our agreements.

Mavis’s collection and use of Student Data is governed by our Terms of Service and/or any other agreement with a school, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), and other applicable state laws that relate to the privacy of Student Data.

Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA)—United States

Mavis complies with COPPA. We do not knowingly collect personal information from a child under 13 unless and until a school has authorized us to collect such information through the provision of services on the school’s behalf. Consistent with COPPA, we rely on the school to provide appropriate consent and authorization for a student under 13 to use our services and for Mavis to collect personal information from each student. We use and process Student Data for the purpose of providing the educational services to the school and do not collect or retain Student Data for longer than is necessary to provide the services. We provide the school the opportunity to review and delete the personal information collected from their students, and we work with schools to provide parents the same level of access, upon request.
