Terms of Use & Privacy Policy
What Information We Collect
Only Educators can register for TeachAid; we do not allow any other user types.
​
-
When an Educator registers we collect and store the following pieces of information from the Educator:
-
First Name
-
Last Name
-
Email Address
-
-
In addition, we collect and store the following pieces of information for Educators:
-

Role
-
-
We do not collect any ‘personal information’ in respect of students nor do we collect any other information to personally identify a student.
-
Additional information is collected to improve the quality of the TeachAid service and to manage content delivery. For example, teacher usage information helps us to: make decisions about the educational appropriateness of a specific content type; make decisions about the browsers and platforms TeachAid supports; and identify other technical infrastructure requirements. We may also use this teacher usage information to create new related educational material and features. This information is reported in an anonymous way and in aggregate to protect the identity of the individual educator.
Security
-
When the disclosure of personal information is required for the use or operation of the TeachAid service, any transfer of such information (for instance, during the registration process) is made via a secure connection, conducted within a firewall and therefore secure from outside probes, and, to the extent it is maintained by TeachAid, resides on TeachAid's secure servers.
-
These servers perform standard logging which permits the collection of information on ISPs and the type of browser and operating system used. Logging also allows TeachAid to track generic information regarding total accesses to our site.
Cookies
-
TeachAid uses session and persistent cookies on its websites. Session cookies are data files temporarily installed in users' browsers to help them navigate the site. Persistent cookies, computer files stored on hard drives, are used to help measure traffic to the site. Cookies are used to enable TeachAid to compile statistics, and not to collect information of a personal nature. While users may disable or remove cookies, doing so may make it impossible to fully access Teachaid's websites.
-
No personal information is ever stored in a cookie, even if your name, telephone number or e-mail address was entered on other parts of the website. TeachAid does not sell information collected by cookies on its websites or use the information for commerce-related purposes.
-
The following details explain how and when TeachAid might use cookies: As you explore a TeachAid website, a cookie will be set on your computer which will record your IP address. This will tell us which pages you visit and the amount of time spent on each page. This helps us at TeachAid identify new and repeat visitors and tells us how long visitors spend on our Websites and which pages receive the most traffic. This tracking is to enhance your experience by allowing customization and an easier access to the items on the TeachAid website you enjoy.
TeachAid reserves the right to amend the Privacy Policy from time to time at our sole discretion. TeachAid users will be informed of any such amendments through the Website or by email. The effective date of any change will be clearly marked.
