Third-Party Analytics
We can use third-party service providers to provide site metrics and other analytics services. These third parties can use technologies discussed below, such as cookies, web beacons, and other technologies, to collect information, such as your IP address, identifiers associated with your device, other applications on your device, the browsers you use to access the Service, the pages viewed, how much time you spend on a page or Sidekick overall, links you clicked, and activity information. This information can be used by Sidekick and third-party service providers on behalf of Sidekick to analyse and track usage of the Service, determine the popularity of certain content, and better understand how you use the Service. The third-party service providers that we engage are bound by confidentiality obligations and other restrictions with respect to their collection, use and disclosure of your information.
We may process data for any other purpose disclosed to you in connection with the Service from time to time. If we intend to process your personal data for a purpose other than that set out above and which is not compatible with the original processing purpose, we will provide you with relevant information prior to such processing and will obtain your consent where necessary.
You remain in control of the information you provide to Sidekick. You may also opt to have your information deleted (for example, when you end your relationship with Sidekick). If you choose to have your information deleted, all your information will also be deleted in accordance with our data retention practices.
For information on children under 13, guardians also control of the information the child provides to Sidekick and opt to have this information deleted. If the parent chooses to have the child’s information deleted, all the child’s information will be deleted in accordance with our data retention practices.
You may request to have your information deleted by contacting [email protected]
You may choose to display publicly certain information about you or activities you perform on Sidekick. Whenever possible, we provide you with choices about the privacy of your information on Sidekick. For example, Online Exhibitions featuring student work can be private (only viewable by teachers, students, and specific adults) or public (viewable by the general public).
Comments you post on our blog or in testimonials may be viewable by other users of Sidekick and the general public and you should be aware that any information you provide in these areas may be read, collected, and used by others who access them. To request removal of your personal information from these areas, contact us at [email protected]. In some cases, we may not be able to remove your personal information, in which case we will let you know if we are unable to do so and why.
We will share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of Sidekick when we have your instruction and consent to do so.
Sidekick provides personal and non-personal information to our partners, trusted organizations, vendors and other affiliated organizations to process it on our behalf. Some of these contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country. Our providers process data in accordance with our instructions, this policy and any other appropriate confidentiality, security or other requirements we deem necessary in order to comply with Sidekick’s obligations. By using Sidekick, you agree to allow these companies to process your data on our behalf, regardless of where they are located.
We regularly update a list of our partners, service providers and subprocessors, which you can view in the Third-party providers section.
Sidekick will share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of Sidekick if we have a good-faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of the information is reasonably necessary to:
Respond to or meet any applicable law, regulation, legal process or other enforceable governmental request.
Investigate potential violations of our agreement with you.
Detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security, or technical issues.
Protect against and prevent harm to the rights, property, or safety of Sidekick, our customers, or the public as required or permitted by law.
If Sidekick is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of its assets, you will be notified via email and a prominent notice on our website of any change in ownership or uses of your personal information, as well as any choices you may have regarding your personal information.
From time to time, Sidekick may release non-personal information in the aggregate or as part of anonymized datasets, for example, by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its Service.
Sidekick retains your personal information for as long as your account is active, to fulfill our legitimate business purposes, or to comply with our legal obligations. When these conditions no longer exist, Sidekick removes that information in accordance with our standard deletion processes. Sidekick may retain and use non-personal information, including information which has been de-identified, aggregated, or anonymized, indefinitely.
When you delete or update your account or information, we first aim to immediately remove that data from view. We then begin the process of securely and safely deleting your personal information from our systems. We design our systems to protect information from accidental or malicious destruction, so to ensure a safe and thorough removal process, we may not immediately delete residual copies from our active servers and may not remove some information from our backup systems. In addition, events like routine maintenance, unexpected outages, bugs, or failures in our protocols may cause delays in our standard processes and timeframes, however we maintain systems designed to detect and remediate such issues.
We retain records of support tickets and other communications between Sidekick and our users, for example support emails, survey responses, feedback submissions, or comments on our blogs or other posts, indefinitely in order to better manage our support processes, maintaining accurate business records, and identifying other trends. We reserve the right to publish these communications in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users.
We take all measures necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of personal information.
We build apps to take advantage of decentralized storage systems, such as blockchain technologies and personal data stores. For example, the Sidekick Storyboard application relies on integrations with your data systems to store and use data all within your private network, similar to how an on-premises software solution would store and use data on your servers. This means you fully control the data. We never even see this data.
In situations where we must store data, we encrypt all databases containing service data. This means that even if a malicious actor were able to breach our security and access our data, they would not be able to interpret it without first decrypting the data.
We follow industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. For example, our website and apps are protected by HTTPS encryption and when you enter credit card information on our order forms, that information is encrypted and protected by our third-party payment providers. If you have any questions about security of our Service, you can contact us at [email protected].
If we know or have reason to know of a systems security breach by an unauthorized party of your user data where that data is being or is likely to be used for an unauthorized purpose, we will promptly notify you so that you can take appropriate steps.
We comply with relevant laws regarding data breaches. If we know or have reason to know of a systems security breach by an unauthorized party of your user data where that data is being or is likely to be used for an unauthorized purpose, we will promptly notify you and, where necessary, the relevant governmental authorities, so that you can take appropriate steps.
This policy extends the General Privacy and Data Policy and supercedes all other policies regarding data privacy, use, and security for data collected from activities of students or other minors, from the activities of others conducted on the behalf of students or other minors, or data clearly tied to personal or confidential information regarding students or other minors.
To make easy on reviewers, this section reorganizes the the Privacy Policy to state clearly how we either help educational institutions comply or comply ourselves with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), the U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), and state regulations that extend or divert from these federal regulations.
This policy is in accordance with the U.S. Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) and Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), and outlines our practices world-wide regarding the personal information of all students under 13. For more information about COPPA and general tips about protecting children’s online privacy, please review the Federal Trade Commission's Consumer guide.
The policies outlined in this COPPA Privacy Policy are intended to supplement the information appearing in our general Privacy Policy and apply to all students in K-12 education, not only those under age 13. Where the COPPA Privacy Policy conflicts with our general Privacy Policy concerning information about a Child, the terms of this COPPA Privacy Policy will prevail over our general Privacy Policy.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has said education institutions and their members like teachers and school administrators may act on behalf of parents to provide consent required by COPPA for the collection of personal information from children if and only if the service uses that information purely for the authorized educational context. When doing so, institutions should always notify parents about these activities and provide a copy of the Privacy Policy of the services for which they are providing consent.
If you are using Sidekick with students as part of an educational institution in an educational context, the following provisions also apply:
You represent and warrant that you are solely responsible for complying with the Child Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) requirement to secure parental consent for accessing applications which require personal information from children under 13.
You may need to obtain verifiable parental consent (“Consent”) from all parents whose children will be using Sidekick and provide a copy to us upon our request. For more information on your obligations under COPPA, please see www.ftc.gov/privacy.
When obtaining such consent, you provide parents with a copy of our Privacy Policy.
Sidekick only collects limited personal information from students with consent of a parent or a member of an educational institution acting on behalf of a parent. We use the collected information solely for the benefit of the educational context.
Under FERPA regulations, parents have the right to refuse the further contact with their child and to have access to their child’s school record information and to have it deleted by contacting the school administrator.
If you are a parent and would like more information on parental rights with respect to a child’s educational record under the U.S. Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), please visit the FERPA site. If you believe that a student’s school, district, or teacher has not required parental consent prior to our collection of any personal information, contact us at [email protected].
Providers of consent, both parents and education institutions providing consent on behalf of students, may make the following requests with respect to student data:
Review your or your student’s personally identifiable information
If you no longer agree with our Terms of Service or this Privacy Policy, you may opt out your student from using our service and therefore cease collection of your student's data
If your or your student’s personally identifiable information changes you may correct or update your student's information
Cancel your or your student's account or delete all personal information and school record information related to the account
We retain information only for as long as an account is active or as needed to provide services to active students or comply with our legal requirements.
If you are a parent or guardian of a student, contact the member of the educational institution providing consent on your behalf (typically an administrator at your student's school), or you may contact us directly if you're providing direct consent.
You may contact us in multiple ways:
Email us at [email protected]
Text the chatbot at the number you or your student is already using
Update the data directly using our web application
For any data request, please include the student's username, the school or organization, and the teacher or parent’s email address and telephone number. To protect children’s privacy and security, we will take reasonable steps to help verify a teacher or parent’s identity before granting access to any personal information. We intend to resolve data requests fully within 30 days.
Instead, we use a meaningless unique identifiers and relevant security keys to integrate with your productivity suites, student information systems, or learning management systems. During real-time student experiences, we use these integrations to call up the data we need to the user's browser. Depending on how that data is used by your other vendors, it is possible student data never even leaves your network.
Some of our features, however, require us to send and store some student data on our servers.
Sidekick collects the minimum data required to provide and improve our Services. Sidekick does not accumulate personal information about any minor for distribution, sharing, or selling. Teachers working with parents of students using Sidekick services administer a Parent Information and Consent form to guardians of participating students. For students 13 or older, guardians may object to their students' participation in Sidekick Services. We do not require a minor to provide any personally-identifying information or any more information than is necessary to use any Sidekick service.
Sidekick must retain a limited subset of personal information of students. We use this information to operate as a school official to communicate with students and comply with applicable laws. We require:
The student's first name
The student's school email address
The student's date of birth
Many districts and school corporations already consider this information directory information and have issued a notice defining it as such. If you haven't, however you will need to designate this information accordingly and release a public notice of doing so. The U.S. Department of Education even has a model notice you may review.
You may refuse to designate the required information as directory information, but it will limit many features of Sidekick Services as well as the number of students eligible to use them.
Wherever identity is not important, we do not collect personally identifiable information. Instead, we collect anonymous event data that help us improve user experience, performance, and security. We may also use aggregated anonymized information for research, analysis, and product development.
In some cases it is impossible to collect fully anonyous data. For example, event data for a comment in a Microsoft Word or G Suite Docs document will include a unique identifier Google has assigned a student, which could feasibly be tied to sensitive personal information. In another example, Sidekick will need to pair personal information such as grade levels or competency levels to a student's unique identifier in order to provide appropriate competency-based learning progressions. We may further need to retain this data to improve future recommendations.
Even though the student's unique identifier is a meaningless string of scrambled letters and numbers, a malicious actor with full access to both our data and encryption keys, as well as the correct school's data, could theoretically reconstruct student identities that include sensitive information. This would require an immense amount of effort and coordination from the malicious actor, but it is a very rare case we must prepare for.
We attempt to de-identify the data we collect before storing it through several means. We use meaningless identifiers as references to meaningful content, such as student records or grades, that a separate application in our system must decode so the malicious actor must gain control over multiple, isolated applications before the data has any utility. We also will clone original event data and student profiles, obfuscate personal information, then store only the cloned data. This allows us to power many of the features without storing any personally identifiable information.
Sidekick will record partner communication with minors and screen it for inappropriate content. Sidekick will temporarily store recordings of partner communication with minors that only teachers may access to share with their students or other legitimate purposes.
Students, school administrators, and parents may access the videos upon request during this period if and only if safety is a legitimate concern.
Videos that have been screened for inappropriate content and do not need to be retained for a legitimate use will be promptly deleted.
While Sidekick is intended for users primarily of age 13 and over, sometimes children under the age of 13 may be enrolled in participating schools. We accommodate these students by working through the teacher to offer a limited feature set that does not require us to collect any personal information. We offer this restricted experience for accounts of all users below the age of 13 and for some users below the age of 16 where applicable under local law.
For students 13 or younger, guardians must consent to their students' participation in Sidekick services. Parents and legal guardians of minors can consent to collection and use of a child's personal information without consenting to the disclosure of that information to third parties.
As described in the general security measures detailed in the General Privacy and Data section, we encrypt all databases containing service data. This includes student data. This means no directory information, video, or other personal information or data considered part of a students' education record is stored in a directly readable format.
Sidekick uses cookies and related technologies to provide you with a fast, safe, and personalized experience for its Service. Cookies also help us understand how certain features are being used, and allow us to improve Sidekick for all users. Below we explain more about what cookies are, how we and our third party partners use them, and how you can control their usage.
As part of your agreement to use the service, you permit us to collect and use your information from activity on devices you use in accordance with this Privacy Notice. If you would like to block our cookies, view the methods described under How to Control Cookies or using the opt-out links provided in the Cookies Set by Third Parties section.
Cookies are small text files that a website saves on your computer or mobile device when you visit that website. These cookies help secure our authentication process during logins and signups or enable the website to remember your actions and preferences for a period of time, so that you don’t have to re-enter them each time you come back to the website or browse from one page to another.
Like many websites, Sidekick uses cookies to deliver, measure, and improve its platform in several different ways. We always use secure cookies, which means the data contained in them can only ever be transmitted over an encrypted connection. Our general categories of use are outlined below.
For some features of the website, it’s necessary to store data temporarily on one page so that we can use it again on another. User Input cookies are persistent cookies with durations of anywhere from several days to several years.
We use cookies as a prevention measure to keep malicious actors from being able to perform actions as your or with your information without your knowledge or consent. The data kept in these cookies is passed along with any data sent back to the Service from your browser to validate that the data actually came from you.
Many features of the Service will store your preferences about how that feature is displayed or used in a cookie. For example, if you set a filter on competencies to teach or assess, your filter preferences about how many and what kinds of competencies appear are stored in a cookie. Cookies that store preferences can be set with durations anywhere from just the current session up to a year.
To understand how users interact with specific features of Sidekick and to further improve our website, we sometimes collect anonymous data about website usage and store it in cookies. We also set a cookie containing a unique, random value so that we can anonymously identify you each time you come to the website. These cookies can be set with durations anywhere from just the current session up to several years.
Beyond the cookies we set ourselves, we also work with various reputable companies to provide certain services on Sidekick, like advertising, and to help us analyze how visitors use Sidekick and optimize their experience. In general, these cookies:
Enable features and experiences on Sidekick that are tailored to your activity and preferences
Collect information on your and other users’ preferences in order to create more useful products
Maintain Sidekick’s regular business operations by facilitating communications and notices, onboarding experiences, and by collecting impressions and click data
Help diagnose and correct downtime, bugs, and errors in our code to ensure that our products are operating efficiently
Below we provide more information on these companies and the cookies they may set.
Google Analytics is a service provided by Google that aids us in analyzing how users interact with and navigate the Sidekick website. Google Analytics uses cookies to capture anonymous statistics about your usage of the website. This information cannot be used to identify you individually, and the data is only used in aggregate to analyze broad trends in usage of the website. Google Analytics may set one or more cookies for different durations. More information about each of these cookies and their purposes can be found here. You can opt out of Google Analytics here.
In addition to cookies, we also use similar technologies on Sidekick which capture and store user data as outlined below.
Web beacons, also known as clear GIFs or pixel tags, are small images that appear in the emails we send to our users, and are used to track whether the email is opened or forwarded to other people. Having this information gives us a better understanding of the usefulness and relevance of the emails we send to our users.
If you no longer wish to receive promotional email communications from us, you can click on the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any such email.
HTML5 local storage is an industry-standard technology for storing data in the browser that is very similar to cookies. The difference is that the data is only available in your browser, unlike cookies which are transmitted back to the server as part of loading a new page. Google Analytics may sometimes put data into local storage, and we use their services for the reasons outlined above.
In some browsers you are able to clear your local storage in a similar way to clearing cookies. Please consult the relevant documentation for your browser for further details.
In addition to opting out of third party cookies as described above, you can also control and delete cookies used by Sidekick at any time. For instructions on how to do this, which may vary depending on what browser you are using and where you are located, visit aboutcookies.org or youronlinechoices.com. You can delete all existing cookies on your computer and set most browsers to prevent them from being placed. However, please note that if you do this, you will no longer be able to log in to your Sidekick account and other functionality on our website may not work properly.
To help Sidekick provide, maintain, protect and improve our services, Sidekick shares information with our partners, trusted organizations, vendors and other affiliated organizations to process it on our behalf in accordance with our instructions and any other appropriate confidentiality, security or other requirements we deem necessary.
We will never sell or lease your or your students’ personal information with third parties.
Prior to engaging into a relationship with a third-party service provider, we will first review their privacy policies and ensure that these are compliant with those regulations that Sidekick is adhering to and that they are aware that Sidekick is directed to children. Third-party service providers who will have access to any Personally Identifiable Information (PII) will have their privacy policies reviewed by Sidekick on an annual basis to ensure that any changes made do not affect compliance with all applicable legislation.
When possible, we use restricted versions of our third-party services (for example, Google Analytics) that limit data sharing and tracking on areas of our site and mobile apps that are accessed by children to support our internal operations.
This Privacy Notice does not apply to, and we are not responsible for, third-party cookies, web beacons, or other tracking technologies, which are covered by such third parties’ privacy policies. For more information, we encourage you to check the privacy policies of these third parties to learn about their privacy practices. You can find information on these partners and providers below, including what data we share with them and the services they provide us as well as links to their privacy policies.
