Data Privacy Statement
TinkRworks prioritizes the privacy of our partner schools, educational organizations, and their students (“Partner Institutions”). We strictly adhere to data protection laws in Illinois, including the Student Online Privacy Act[1] and the Identity Protection Act[2]. Furthermore, we are compliant with U.S. and international standards like the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act[3], and the Children’s Online Privacy and Protection Act[4].
Our products do not knowingly gather personally identifiable information from students. Instead, students are linked to their respective classrooms using unique identifiers provided by their teachers. This system ensures no tracking across classrooms or platforms. Moreover, we don’t collect demographic details, attendance, or parental information.
In the furtherance of their educational mission, our Partner Institutions may have collected personally identifiable information from their students and may upload educational work product to the Service that inadvertently contains such data. We rely upon our Partner Institutions to have collected the proper consent and authorization for a student under 13 to use the Service from such student or their parent. In such cases we would collect, use, process and retain such information solely to provide the educational services on behalf of the Partner Institution and for the purposes set forth in our agreement with the Partner Institution.
We are always open to collaborating with our Partner Institutions to address any concerns or special requests regarding privacy. If you have any questions about reviewing, modifying, or deleting personal information of a child under the age of 13, please contact the Partner Institution directly. Please contact us at info@tinkrworks.com if you believe we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 13 without proper consent. This will allow us to delete such information as soon as possible.
