It is the intent of this site to use personal information only for the purpose for which it was requested and for any additional uses expressly provided on this site.
It is highly recommended and suggested that you review the privacy policies and statements of any website you choose to use or frequent as a means to better understand how other websites garner, make use of, and share information collected.
How We Use Your Information

- To provide and manage the Services, including processing payments and managing subscriptions.
- To send you newsletters, updates, and marketing communications via Mailchimp.
- To improve our Services and customize user experiences.
- To comply with legal obligations and protect our legal rights.
User-Generated Content
We may collect and use any user-generated content, such as reviews, testimonials, or anonymized survey responses, for marketing and promotional purposes. When doing so, we will take steps to protect your privacy by blurring out or removing personally identifiable information, such as your last name and any other sensitive details. We will not share any information that would violate privacy laws, including HIPAA, and will ensure that your content is used in a way that respects your confidentiality.
Should we use a review or testimonial that you submitted as part of a marketing campaign or in response to a direct request from Conscious Classroom, you have the right to contact us at [email protected] to request its removal from our social media, email newsletters, website, or any other platforms where it may appear. We will promptly honor your request and ensure the content is no longer used in future marketing efforts.
Retention of User Information
Conscious Classroom retains personal data for as long as is reasonably necessary to fulfill the purpose for which the personal information was collected. In the case of educational or student records, Conscious Classroom will retain the data as long as needed to provide the given services or as otherwise agreed by the agreement between Conscious Classroom and the school or as required by FERPA and other relevant laws and regulations.
Third-Party Services
We use third-party services to help manage certain aspects of our business operations. Conscious Classroom, LLC does not claim nor accept responsibility for any privacy policies, practices, and/or procedures of other such websites. Therefore, we encourage all users and visitors to be aware when they leave our website and to read the privacy statements of every website that collects personally identifiable information. The aforementioned Privacy Policy Agreement applies only and solely to the information collected by our website.
- Electronic Payment Processor: We may use a Payment Processor for secure payment processing. The processor, not us, encrypts and stores your payment details.
- GoDaddy: Our website host.
- LearnDash: Our content platform provider, which stores user data content.
- Mailchimp: We use Mailchimp for email marketing communications and newsletters.
- Facebook/Instagram: We use these platforms for marketing purposes, but no personal information is directly shared with them unless you click on an ad and voluntarily provide information on their platforms.
- Vimeo: We use Vimeo to host Conscious Classroom video content within our online curriculum.
- YouTube: Conscious Classroom educational video content is embedded into our Google Slides via YouTube video.
Data Security
Conscious Classroom understands the importance of data security. We use a combination of technical and administrative security controls with the goal of (i) maintaining the security and integrity of personal data; (ii) protecting against any threats or hazards to the security or integrity of personal data; and (iii) protecting against unauthorized access to or use of such information in our possession or control that could result in substantial harm to you.
Your account is protected by a password for your privacy and security, and you select that password, so we encourage you to select a strong password. If you use an SSO Account to access your account, you may have additional or different sign-on protections via that third-party site or service. You should prevent unauthorized access to your account and the personally identifiable information in that Account by selecting and protecting your password and/or other sign-on mechanism appropriately, not sharing those sign-on credentials with anyone, and limiting access to your computer or device and browser by signing off after you have finished accessing your account.
We endeavor to protect the privacy of your account and other personal information we hold in our records, and we use industry-standard data security measures to protect your personal information. This includes: (1) only storing your personal information under our control, (2) implementing physical access controls to those areas where personal information is stored, (3) limiting access to your personal information to only those of our personnel who need to have that access to do their jobs, and (4) encrypting all of your personal information both in transit and at rest. We also regularly conduct audits of our security practices to make sure that they are up to date. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee complete security. Unauthorized entry or use, hardware or software failure, and other factors, may compromise the security of user information.
In the event of an unauthorized disclosure of your personal information, we will provide notice as required by applicable law.
You should also be aware that:
- If you are a teacher, your school administrator can access your account and its personally identifiable information.
This means that your account security is only as good as the security precautions of the teachers and school administrators who can access your account, and you should check with them about those precautions and their information handling policies.
As no method of transmission of data over the Internet, or any other method of electronic storage or transmission, is 100% secure, WE DO NOT GUARANTEE OR WARRANT THAT OUR CONTROLS WILL PREVENT UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR PROTECT THE SECURITY OR INTEGRITY OF PERSONAL DATA IN ALL SITUATIONS. YOU ASSUME THE RISK THAT UNAUTHORIZED ENTRY OR USE, HARDWARE OR SOFTWARE FAILURE, AND OTHER FACTORS THAT MAY COMPROMISE THE SECURITY OF PERSONAL DATA AT ANY TIME
Your Rights and Choices
You have the right to:
- Access, update, or delete your personal information by contacting [email protected].
- Opt out of marketing communications by following the unsubscribe link in our emails.
- Request the removal of your testimonial or review from use in our marketing campaigns or on our website.
- Request more details on how your information is processed and stored.
International Users
Our Services are primarily directed to users in the United States, but users from other English-speaking countries may also access them. If you are accessing the Services from outside the U.S., your information may be transferred and processed in the United States, where our servers and third-party providers are located.
Children’s Privacy
While we do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under the age of 13, certain interactions within our Services allow for the submission of child-related information, specifically through an optional, anonymous student experience survey.
- Survey Information: Parents and children may optionally submit a questionnaire asking them to participate in pre-and post-curriculum surveys to track student progress. Children respond by choosing from a rating scale.
- Data Handling: This information is submitted and stored through a secure online survey administration tool. We do not use it for any purpose other than securely storing it on our customers’ behalf and providing them with student progress feedback. It is accessible only by the customer via their online portal.
If you believe we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child in a manner not described above, please contact us at [email protected], and we will take steps to delete the data.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page, and the effective date will be updated accordingly. Please review this policy periodically.
