ilessonplan Privacy Policy

ilessonplan and its affiliates (collectively "ilessonplan" or "we") are committed to protecting the privacy of our users. This Privacy Statement may be updated at any time without notice by posting a revised statement on the ilessonplan.com Web site (the "Site"). Because ilessonplan gathers certain types of information about the users of the Site and the various services available on the Site or separately ("Services"), we believe you should fully understand the terms and conditions surrounding the use of the information we collect. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for the Site and the ilessonplan Learning Environment (a collaborative, web-based application for supporting teaching-learning processes in schools). Please review the following statement to understand how the information you provide to ilessonplan through our Site or otherwise will be treated.

Why We Collect Information
ilessonplan collects personal information from its users for several reasons. When providing online educational services, ilessonplan electronically collects the teacher and administrator information required by educational institutions from those teaching courses at the physical institution. ilessonplan stores this information on its servers and makes the information available to the institution. In an online medium, detailed affirmation of users' identities and their actions while using ilessonplan products is necessary to verify that course participants and permitted users are legitimate. The information provided during registration, such as e-mail address, institution affiliation, and zip code, may be used to create personalized content. ilessonplan is dedicated to the integrity of its customer base so the law is not unknowingly broken through its member population. ilessonplan must handle personal information of our users and must know who each member is, have proof of that member's identity, know how to contact that member, and occasionally verify how the member is using the ilessonplan Site. Demographic information about our member base allows ilessonplan to provide products that meet the needs of its users. Understanding our user base means marketing activities will be relevant to the user. ilessonplan and third party licensees may use non-personally identifiable profile information to generate aggregate reports and market research in the form of statistics. This information is not capable of being matched with your personally identifiable information. ilessonplan surveys and reviews the demographic nature of our users on a regular basis in an attempt to improve our products and enhance the online learning for our users.
