The following statement is provided for your review so that you may understand how the information you provide to GREAT RIVER LEARNING™ will be treated. Your use of this website is your affirmation that you have read this privacy policy, that you will alert yourself to future changes to this privacy policy, if any, by periodically checking the content of the privacy statement, and that you assent to the terms of the privacy policy.


  1. Information collected

    It is necessary for users of this website to provide personal information in order to access the website. Upon registering, you will be asked for certain personal information, including a name, city, state, e-mail address, and age range. This information provides us with the opportunity to provide you with content relevant to your interest and provides us with demographic data that we can use to improve the services offered to you. Any updates or reviews of this information may be conducted by you by selecting the appropriate option when using this website.


    Further, personal information may be requested of you by GREAT RIVER LEARNING™ to provide customer service, billing, synchronization of information available on the website, network management, customer service, and other exchanges of information.


    Information regarding all users is gathered collectively. GREAT RIVER LEARNING™ will automatically log IP addresses, session sources, and other data that tracks users' access to this website. This information is analyzed for sales and marketing purposes as well as monitoring the performance of the system. This analysis is conducted for learning about trends among our customers and not for the behaviors of individual users.



  2. Children's privacy

    It is the policy of GREAT RIVER LEARNING™ to limit what personal information may be collected from children. Children under the age of 12 will not be allowed to register with this website and will not be allowed to create an account without first having a parent's consent. The child's school must first obtain a parent's consent prior to any child under the age of 12 registering. If a parent desires to review a child's personal information after giving such consent, request that it be deleted, or refuse to allow any additional collection of information, the parent must contact the school representative that is using this website. If you have any questions regarding this provision, please contact your child's school representative or GREAT RIVER LEARNING™. Our contact information is provided below.


    Only reasonably necessary information is collected from children. GREAT RIVER LEARNING™ does not attempt or attract children by offering any special games, prizes or other activities. It is the policy of GREAT RIVER LEARNING™ not to share any personal information about children with third parties. If GREAT RIVER LEARNING™ obtains actual knowledge that it has collected personal information about a child under the age of 12 without a parent’s consent, that information will be immediately deleted from its database.



  3. Use of the information collected

    The account number, password, and/or User ID selected during the registration process must be used to login and participate on this website. You will be identified to the website sponsor or administrator and, if applicable, other registrants, by your full name when login has been completed. Any information that is disclosed in an area such as the discussion forums, e-mail lists, listserves, and other places where your name appears may become available to the website sponsor or administrator and, if applicable, other registrants. You should be cautious when deciding to disclose your personal information.


    Chat rooms, forums, message boards, and/or news groups are made available on this website. Again, any information disclosed in any of these areas may become public information and you should be cautious when deciding to disclose your personal information.


    Aggregated personal information may be used by GREAT RIVER LEARNING™ to determine the demographics of its users, to distribute statistics and general marketplace information. A specific user will not be identified in this aggregated information.


    Any personal information you supply will not be given, sold, rented, loaned, or otherwise disclose to any third parties other than GREAT RIVER LEARNING™ or the institution where you are registered, except when you have granted permission. However, a good-faith disclosure may be reasonably necessary to comply with a legal process, enforce the Terms of Use, respond to claims that content appearing on this course website violates a third party's rights, or to protect the rights, property, or personal safety of GREAT RIVER LEARNING™, users of this course website, or the public. Note: Your use of this website is an automatic grant of permission for GREAT RIVER LEARNING™ to share information with the sponsor, administrator and, where applicable, other registrants of this website. GREAT RIVER LEARNING™ is not responsible for further disclosures or use of personal information that may be made by such third parties.


    GREAT RIVER LEARNING™ may record non-personal information regarding the users of this website. Aggregated users statistics may be disclosed by GREAT RIVER LEARNING™ in order to describe what services it has to prospective business partners, other third parties, and for other lawful purposes.


    It may be necessary for you or us to share your personal information with a company that may be offering services in conjunction with this course website.
