Our Service is committed to complying with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).
Our Service is committed to complying with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). Although our platform does not allow users 13 years and younger to create an account, we take extra precautions to ensure the privacy and safety of minors who might interact with our services through educational institutions or other authorized entities.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without obtaining verifiable consent from their parents or legal guardians. If a child under 13 submits personal information to our Service without parental or guardian consent, we will take steps to remove such information and terminate the child's account.
FERPA Compliance
In alignment with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), our Service is committed to carefully handling educational records and information. We understand the sensitivity of such data and prioritize protecting our users' privacy rights. Our platform ensures that educational institutions maintain control over user records. We access or process these records solely at the explicit direction of the partnering educational institution, in full compliance with FERPA regulations.
Enhanced Access and Utilization for Users
To further empower users in their educational and career pursuits, our Service introduces features allowing users direct access to their academic records. This initiative is designed to facilitate transparency and autonomy in line with FERPA's provisions for users' rights to access their records.
Moreover, recognizing the value of practical experiences in shaping users' futures, our platform offers a unique feature to generate dynamic resumes for users. This capability leverages information from users' apprenticeship records, part of their educational history, to create comprehensive resumes. These resumes aim to reflect the users' academic achievements and practical experience accurately.
Consent and Control
The generation of resumes from apprenticeship records and any other educational information is conducted with strict adherence to FERPA guidelines. This process is initiated only with:
- Explicit consent from the user ensures they have control over their personal educational information and its use.
- Or under the determination of a legitimate educational interest by the academic institution in cases where user consent is not feasible.
Our platform's commitment to FERPA compliance underlines our dedication to safeguarding user information and enhancing users' educational experience and career readiness through innovative and responsible use of their academic records.
CIPA Compliance
Our platform is dedicated to supporting the principles of the Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA) by offering a safe, educational environment free from harmful content. We understand the importance of CIPA compliance for schools and libraries, aiming to facilitate the adherence of these institutions to internet safety policies without the need for additional filtering measures.
Content Safety Assurance
We provide a curated selection of educational courses rigorously vetted to ensure they meet high standards of appropriateness and safety. By focusing exclusively on offering content that has been thoroughly reviewed and deemed safe, our Service naturally aligns with CIPA's objectives to protect minors from exposure to inappropriate or harmful material online.
Compliance Without Filtering
Unlike traditional platforms that require external filtering services to comply with CIPA, our platform inherently meets these standards through our content curation process. We do not offer general internet access or the ability for users to browse the web freely; thus, our platform does not include filtering technology. Instead, we ensure compliance through a proactive approach, offering only pre-approved, safe educational content. This strategy simplifies compliance for academic institutions, providing a straightforward solution to meet CIPA requirements without the complexities of implementing and managing filtering technologies.
Security of Your Data
The security of Your Data, especially that of minors and students, is paramount to us. We implement robust security measures designed to protect against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction of personal information, including educational records. Our commitment to data security encompasses both physical and electronic safeguards, reflecting the high standards required by FERPA, COPPA, and CIPA.
