Privacy

Please read the following to learn more about our Privacy Policy. By visiting the Bored Teachers website and any other linked pages, features, content, or any other services we offer, you acknowledge that you accept the practices and policies outlined in this Privacy Policy, and you hereby consent that we will collect, use, and share your information in the following ways. Any capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meaning given to them in Bored Teachers Terms of Service.

This Privacy Policy covers our (Bored Teachers LLC and our respective affiliates and related entities) treatment of personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) that we gather when you are accessing or using the Site or Services (collectively, the “System”). This policy does not apply to the practices of companies that we do not own or control, or to individuals that we do not employ or manage. This policy also does not apply to information you choose to disclose publicly on the System.

Personal Information Bored Teachers Collects

We receive and store any information you provide to us. The types of Personal Information collected may include your real name, username, email address, IP address, location, browser information, browsing history, transactions, your communications to us, and any other information necessary for us to provide our services. If you provide any third-party account credentials to us, you understand some content and/or information in those accounts (“Third Party Account Information”) may be transmitted into your account with us if you authorize such transmissions, and that Third Party Account Information transmitted to our Site is covered by this Privacy Policy. You can choose not to provide us with certain information, but then you may not be able to register with us or to take advantage of some of our features.

Personal Information Bored Teachers Collects Automatically

Whenever you interact with the System, we automatically receive and record information on our server logs from your browser including, but not limited to, your IP address, “cookie” information, device information, certain location information, and the page you requested. “Cookies” are identifiers we transfer to your device through our web interface that allow certain functions to perform as designed within the System, and also to allow us to recognize your device and tell us how and when pages in our site are visited and by how many people. We may also record the referring page or service that linked you to us; other information about the type of web browser, computer, platform, related software, and settings you are using; any search terms you have entered on the System; and other usage activity and data logged by our servers. You may be able to change the preferences on your device to prevent or limit your device’s acceptance of cookies, but this may prevent you from taking advantage of the System’s best features. When we collect usage information (such as the numbers and frequency of visitors to the System), we only use this data in aggregate form, and not in a manner that would identify you personally. For example, this aggregate data tells us how often users use parts of the System, so that we can make the System appealing to as many users as possible. We may also provide this aggregate information to our partners, so that they can understand how often people use their services and our System, so that they, too, can provide you with an optimal online experience.

Uses of Personal Information

We may use the Personal Information we collect for our legitimate business purposes, including providing our services and products to you, improving the System, improving our customer service, processing transactions, marketing purposes, and managing our business needs. We do not sell your personal information to third-parties. We may also share Personal Information with our affiliates and trusted third parties and services, such as Google Analytics.

Communications

As part of the System, you may receive communications from us, whether by email or other means. We and our agents may send you email, contact you, or engage you in other communication that we or they determine relate to your use of the System.

Affiliated Businesses and Third-Parties

In certain situations, businesses or third-party websites with which we are affiliated may sell items or provide services to you through the Site (either alone or jointly with us). You can recognize when an affiliated business is associated with such a transaction or service, and we will share your Personal Information with that affiliated business only to the extent that it is related to such transaction or service. One such service may include the ability for you to choose to automatically transmit Third Party Account Information to your Site profile or to automatically transmit information in your Site profile to your third-party account. We have no control over the policies and practices of any third-party.

Protections of Bored Teachers & Others

We reserve the right to access, read, preserve, and disclose any information that we reasonably believe is necessary to comply with law or court order; enforce or apply our conditions of use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of Bored Teachers, our employees, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

Personal Information Security

Unauthorized entry or use, hardware or software failure, and other factors, may compromise the security of user information at any time. In the event that we believe that the security of your Personal Information in our possession or control has been compromised, we will notify you of that development in accordance with applicable law. If a notification is appropriate, we will endeavor to do so as promptly as possible under the circumstances, and, we may do so by email. Using the System, you may find links to third-party websites or apps. We are not responsible for the privacy policies and/or practices on other sites or apps. When linking to another site or app, you should read the site or app’s privacy policy. User profile information, including without limitation your name, email address, and other information (“User Submissions”) may be displayed to other users if you chose to enter such information on your user profile. Again, any content you voluntarily disclose for other users to view on the System is not Personal Information; it becomes publicly available and can be collected and used by others and may be redistributed through the internet and other media channels.

Your Rights

In certain circumstances, you have the following rights: the right to be told how we use your information and obtain access to your information; the right to have your information rectified or erased or place restrictions on processing your information; the right to object to the processing of your information (e.g., for direct marketing purposes); the right to have any information you provided to us on an automated basis returned to you in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, or sent directly to another company, where technically feasible (“data portability”); where the processing of your information is based on your consent, the right to withdraw that consent subject to legal or contractual restrictions; the right to object to any decisions based on the automated processing of your personal data, including profiling; and the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority responsible for data protection matters (e.g. in the UK, the Information Commissioner’s Office). If you request a copy of your information, you may be required to pay a statutory fee. If we hold any information about you that is incorrect or if there are any changes to your details, please let us know so that we can keep our records accurate and up to date. If you withdraw your consent to the use of your personal information for purposes set out in our Privacy Policy, we may not be able to provide you with access to all or parts of the System. We will retain your personal information for the duration of our business relationship and afterward for as long as is necessary and relevant for our legitimate business purposes, in accordance with applicable laws and regulation. In the event we no longer have a legitimate business purpose to retain your personal information, we will dispose of it in a secure manner (without further notice to you).

You may opt not to disclose information, but keep in mind that some information may be needed to register with us or to take advantage of some of our special features. If you do not wish to receive email or other mail from us, please email us at info@boredteachers.com.
