3. What Is Personal Data?

Personal data is defined by the General Data Protection Regulation as 'any information relating to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified in particular by reference to an identifier'.

Personal data is, in simpler terms, any information about you that enables you to be identified. Personal data covers obvious information such as your name and contact details, but it also covers less obvious information such as identification numbers, electronic location data, and other online identifiers.

4. What Are My Rights?

Under the Data Protection Legislation, you have the following rights, which we will always work to uphold:

  • The right to be informed about our collection and use of your personal data. This Privacy Policy should tell you everything you need to know, but you can always contact us to find out more or to ask any questions using the details in Section 15.
  • The right to access the personal data we hold about you. Section 12 will tell you how to do this.
  • The right to have your personal data rectified if any of your personal data held by us is inaccurate or incomplete. Please contact us using the details in Section 15 to find out more.
  • The right to be forgotten, i.e. the right to ask us to delete or otherwise dispose of any of your personal data that we hold. Please contact us using the details in Section 15 to find out more.
  • The right to restrict (i.e. prevent) the processing of your personal data.
  • The right to object to us using your personal data for a particular purpose or purposes.
  • The right to withdraw consent. This means that, if we are relying on your consent as the legal basis for using your personal data, you are free to withdraw that consent at any time.
  • The right to data portability. This means that, if you have provided personal data to us directly, we are using it with your consent or for the performance of a contract, and that data is processed using automated means, you can ask us for a copy of that personal data to re-use with another service or business in many cases.
  • Rights relating to automated decision-making and profiling. We do not use your personal data in this way.

For more information about our use of your personal data or exercising your rights as outlined above, please contact us using the details provided in Section 15.

It is important that your personal data is kept accurate and up-to-date. If any of the personal data we hold about you changes, please keep us informed as long as we have that data.

If you have any cause for complaint about our use of your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a government regulator. We would welcome the opportunity to resolve your concerns ourselves, however, so please contact us first, using the details in Section 15.

5. What Personal Data Do You Collect and How?

The information described in this Section 5 applies to users age 13 and older. For information about personal data we collect from Children under 13, please see Section 13.

Subject to the following, we do not collect any personal data from you. We do not place cookies on your computer or device, nor do we use any other means of data collection.

Our Platform collects certain information automatically, including:

This data is stored in log files. It is deleted when its storage is no longer necessary, at the latest after 14 days.

If you send us an email, we may collect your name, your email address, and any other information which you choose to give us. For the purposes of the Data Protection Legislation, we are the data controller responsible for such personal data.

The lawful basis under the Data Protection Legislation that allows us to use such information is article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR which allows us to process personal data when it is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interests, in this case, the proper operation and functionality of the Platform. If you contact us as described above, you will be required to consent to our use of your personal data to contact you. In this case, our lawful basis for using your personal data will be article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR, which allows us to use your personal data with your consent for a particular purpose or purposes.

6. How Do You Use My Personal Data?

The uses described in this Section 6 apply to users age 13 and older. For information about how we use personal data from Children under 13, please see Section 13.

Where we collect any personal data, it will be processed and stored securely, for no longer than is necessary in light of the reason(s) for which it was first collected. We will comply with our obligations and safeguard your rights under the Data Protection Legislation at all times. We make reasonable efforts to protect your information by using physical and electronic safeguards designed to improve the security of the information we maintain. However, as no electronic transmission or storage of information can be entirely secure, we can make no guarantees as to the security or privacy of your information. For more details on security see Section 7, below.

As stated above, we do not generally collect any personal data directly from you, but if you contact us and we obtain your personal details from your email, we may use them to respond to your email. The other technical data referred to above is necessary for the technical operation of our Platform and will not normally be used in any way to personally identify you.

We use the information we collect:

  • To provide, maintain, improve, and enhance our Platform
  • To personalize your experience on our Platform such as by providing tailored content and recommendations
  • To understand and analyze how you use our Platform and develop new products, services, features, and functionality
  • To communicate with you, provide you with updates and other information relating to our Platform, provide information that you request, respond to comments and questions, and otherwise provide customer support
  • For marketing and advertising purposes, such as developing and providing promotional and advertising materials that may be relevant, valuable or otherwise of interest to you
  • To facilitate transactions and payments
  • To find and prevent fraud, and respond to trust and safety issues that may arise
  • For compliance purposes, including enforcing our legal rights, or as may be required by applicable laws and regulations or requested by any judicial process or governmental agency
  • For other purposes for which we provide specific notice at the time the information is collected
  • To train, improve, and refine artificial intelligence and machine learning models and features, as described in our Terms of Service;

Any and all emails containing your personal data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required for their intended purpose and no legal obligations to retain data conflict with the deletion. If the data is not deleted because it is required for other and legally permissible purposes, its processing is restricted, i.e. the data is blocked and not processed for other purposes. This applies, for example, to data that must be retained for commercial or tax law reasons. No other personal data will be retained for any longer than is necessary.

We will not share any of your personal data with any third parties for any purposes other than storage on an email and/or web hosting server.

7. How and Where Do You Store My Data?

For users in the United States, we store your personal data primarily in the United States using service providers located within the United States or with whom we have appropriate data protection agreements.

For users in the European Economic Area, data is stored within the European Economic Area (the "EEA"). The EEA consists of all EU member states, plus Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein. This means that your personal data will be fully protected under the EU GDPR and/or to equivalent standards by law.

Please contact us using the details below in Section 15 for further information about the particular data protection safeguards used by us when transferring your personal data to a third country.

Personal data security is essential to us, and to protect personal data, we take the following measures:

Limiting access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties with a legitimate need to know and ensuring that they are subject to duties of confidentiality; procedures for dealing with data breaches (the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to, your personal data) including notifying you and/or the Information Commissioner's Office where we are legally required to do so. Insofar as we transfer data to service providers or other third parties outside the EEA, the security of the data during the transfer is guaranteed by adequacy decisions of the EU Commission, insofar as they exist (article 45 para. 3 GDPR).

If no adequacy decision exists (e.g. for the USA), the legal basis for the data transfer is usually, i.e. unless we indicate otherwise, standard contractual clauses. These are a set of rules adopted by the EU Commission and are part of the contract with the respective third party. According to article 46 of the GDPR, they ensure the security of the data transfer. Many of the providers have given contractual guarantees that go beyond the standard contractual clauses to protect the data. These include, for example, guarantees regarding the encryption of data or regarding an obligation on the part of the third party to notify data subjects if law enforcement agencies wish to access the respective data.

8. Do You Share My Personal Data?

We will not share any of your personal data with any third parties for any purposes, subject to the following exceptions.

We may transfer your personal information to service providers, advisors, potential transactional partners, or other third parties in connection with the consideration, negotiation, or completion of a corporate transaction in which we are acquired by or merged with another company or we sell, liquidate, or transfer all or a portion of our assets. The use of your personal information following any of these events will be governed by the provisions of this Privacy Policy in effect at the time the applicable information was collected.If we sell, transfer, or merge parts of our business or assets, your personal data may be transferred to a third party. Any new owner of our business may continue to use your personal data in the same way that we have used it, as specified in this Privacy Policy (i.e. to communicate with you).

We may access, preserve, and disclose your personal information if we believe doing so is required or appropriate to: (a) comply with law enforcement requests and legal process, such as a court order or subpoena; (b) respond to your requests; or (c) protect your, our, or others’ rights, property, or safety. For the avoidance of doubt, the disclosure of your information may occur if you post any objectionable content on or through our Platform.

It is our legitimate interest to provide a website, so that the legal basis for data processing for this is article 6, para. 1 (f) GDPR. We may contract with the following third parties for hosting, content delivery/ management and data storage purposes:

If any of your personal data is transferred to a third party, as described above, we will take steps to ensure that your personal data is handled safely, securely, and in accordance with your rights, our obligations, and the third party’s obligations under the law, as described above in Part 7.

If any personal data is transferred outside of the EU, we will take suitable steps in order to ensure that your personal data is treated just as safely and securely as it would be within the EU and under the Data Protection Legislation, as explained above in Part 7.

We will respond to your subject access request within 28 days and, in any case, not more than one month of receiving it. Normally, we aim to provide a complete response, including a copy of your personal data within that time. In some cases, however, particularly if your request is more complex, more time may be required up to a maximum of three months from the date we receive your subject access request. You will be kept fully informed of our progress.

14. Children's Privacy and COPPA Compliance

14.1. Overview. Knowunity is committed to protecting the privacy of children under the age of 13 ("Children"). This Section 13 describes our practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information from Children in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA"). Parents and legal guardians ("Parents") should review this section carefully before allowing their Children to use the Service.

14.2. Parental Consent Required. Users under 13 years old must first obtain permission from their parent or legal guardian to use the Service. By agreeing to these Terms, you represent and warrant to us that: (a) you are at least 13 years old or have received such parental or guardian permission; (b) you have not previously been suspended or removed from the Service; and (c) your registration and your use of the Service is in compliance with any and all applicable laws and regulations.

14.3. Limited Information Collection from Children. We collect only the minimum amount of personal information necessary from Children to provide the Service. We collect only the following personal information from Children:

(a) Persistent Identifier: A single persistent identifier, such as a user ID or account identifier, which is necessary to support the internal operations of the Service, including providing the educational features, maintaining security, and ensuring the Child can access their account.

We do not collect, and Children's accounts are prohibited from providing, any additional personal information such as: names (beyond a username or account identifier), email addresses, physical addresses, phone numbers, photographs, geolocation data, or any other personally identifiable information beyond the single persistent identifier necessary for account functionality.

We do not condition a Child's participation in any activity on the Child providing more personal information than is reasonably necessary for that activity.

14.4. How We Use Children's Personal Information. We use the persistent identifier collected from Children only for the following limited purposes:

(a) To enable the Child to access and use the educational features and functionality of the Service;

(b) To maintain the Child's account and ensure account security;

(c) To provide appropriate educational content to the Child;

(d) To track the Child's learning progress within the Service for the purpose of providing personalized educational content;

(e) To ensure the security and integrity of the Service and to prevent fraud or misuse;

(f) To comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service; and

(g) To support the internal operations of the Service, such as troubleshooting, data analysis, testing, research, and service improvement.

We do not use Children's personal information for any of the following purposes: (i) targeted advertising or behavioral advertising; (ii) building user profiles for advertising or marketing purposes; (iii) training artificial intelligence or machine learning models; or (iv) any commercial purpose unrelated to providing the educational Service.

14.5. Disclosure of Children's Personal Information. We do not sell, rent, or disclose Children's personal information to third parties for their own purposes. We may share the persistent identifier collected from Children only in the following extremely limited circumstances:

(a) Service Providers for Internal Operations: We may share the persistent identifier with trusted third-party service providers who perform services on our behalf that are necessary for the internal operations of the Service, such as hosting, data storage, and technical support. These service providers are contractually obligated to: (i) use Children's information only to provide services to us and only for internal operations purposes; (ii) not use Children's information for any other purpose, including advertising, marketing, or AI training; (iii) implement appropriate security measures; and (iv) delete Children's information when it is no longer needed to provide the service. Our current service providers that may process Children's information are limited to those listed in Section 8 of this Privacy Policy.

(b) Legal Compliance: We may disclose the persistent identifier if required by law, court order, subpoena, or government request, or if we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of Knowunity, our users, or the public.

(c) Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, or sale of all or a portion of our assets, Children's personal information may be transferred to the acquiring entity, provided that the acquiring entity agrees to maintain the same level of privacy protection required by COPPA.

We do not share Children's personal information with: (i) advertising networks or advertising partners; (ii) data brokers or analytics companies for profiling purposes; (iii) artificial intelligence or machine learning providers for model training; or (iv) any third party for commercial purposes unrelated to providing the Service.

14.6. No Third-Party Advertising or AI Training Using Children's Data. We do not: (a) display third-party advertising to Children; (b) use Children's personal information to build advertising profiles; (c) share Children's personal information with advertising networks; (d) use Children's personal information to train artificial intelligence or machine learning models, whether our own models or third-party models; or (e) allow third-party AI providers to access, process, or retain Children's personal information for any purpose other than providing direct functionality to the Child (such as educational content delivery). If a Child's account uses any AI-powered features (as described in Section 6 of our Terms of Service), such use is strictly limited to providing the educational feature requested by the Child, and no data from the Child's use of AI features is retained by third-party AI providers or used for model training purposes.

14.7. Parental Rights and Controls. Parents have the following rights regarding their Child's personal information:

(a) Right to Review: Parents may review the persistent identifier we have collected from their Child by contacting us at the email or postal address listed in Section 13.14 below. Given the limited nature of the information we collect (a single persistent identifier), we will confirm what identifier is associated with the Child's account.

(b) Right to Delete: Parents may request that we delete their Child's personal information and account at any time by contacting us using the information in Section 13.14. Upon receiving a verified deletion request, we will delete the Child's account and associated persistent identifier from our active databases within 30 days, except to the extent we are required to retain such information to comply with legal obligations.

(c) Right to Refuse Further Collection: Parents may refuse to permit us to collect further personal information from their Child. However, because we collect only a single persistent identifier necessary for account functionality, refusing further collection would require termination of the Child's account.

(d) Right to Revoke Consent: Parents may revoke their consent for our collection, use, and disclosure of their Child's personal information at any time by contacting us using the information in Section 13.14. If consent is revoked, we will delete the Child's account and the associated persistent identifier, and the Child will no longer be able to use the Service.

14.8. Parental Notification and Communication. We communicate with Parents regarding their Child's account through the Parent's email address or contact information. Specifically:

(a) Before creating an account for a Child, we provide Parents with notice of our information practices and obtain verifiable parental consent as described in Section 13.3;

(b) We send Parents confirmation when a Child's account is created;

(c) We notify Parents if there are material changes to our collection, use, or disclosure practices regarding Children's personal information and obtain renewed parental consent where required by COPPA;

(d) We provide Parents with the ability to contact us with questions or concerns regarding their Child's privacy at any time using the contact information in Section 13.14.

14.9. Security of Children's Personal Information. We take the security of Children's personal information seriously and implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect the persistent identifier from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These safeguards include: (a) encryption of data in transit and at rest; (b) access controls limiting employee and service provider access to Children's information on a strict need-to-know basis; (c) regular security assessments and audits; and (d) contractual requirements for service providers to maintain appropriate security measures. However, no security measures are perfect, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

14.10. Data Retention for Children. We retain the persistent identifier collected from Children only for as long as the Child's account remains active or as necessary to provide the Service to the Child. When a Parent requests deletion of their Child's account, or when a Child's account is terminated, we delete the persistent identifier within 30 days, except to the extent retention is necessary for legal compliance or to resolve disputes. We do not retain Children's personal information for marketing, profiling, or any purpose other than providing the educational Service.

14.11. Children and AI Features. Children's accounts have limited or no access to AI-powered features of the Service. To the extent any AI features are made available to Children (with specific parental consent):

(a) AI features are strictly limited to providing educational assistance directly to the Child;

(b) No inputs, queries, or interactions from Children are used to train AI models eitherourownorthirdpartymodelseither our own or third-party models;

(c) Third-party AI providers do not retain any data from Children's use of AI features beyond the time necessary to process the immediate request;

(d) Parents may disable all AI features for their Child's account at any time;

(e) We do not use AI to profile Children or build behavioral profiles.

14.12. Third-Party Services and Children. Children's accounts cannot access third-party websites, services, links, or features through the Service. Any third-party integrations or features are disabled for accounts identified as belonging to Children.
