Privacy Policy

Your privacy is very important to us. Part of our operation of sis4teachers.org (the “Site”) involves the collection and use of information about you. This privacy policy explains what type of information we collect and what we do with that information to allow you to make choices about the way your information is collected and used. This privacy policy may change from time to time, so please check it often.

What Information Do We Collect?

In general, you can visit the Site without identifying who you are or revealing any information about yourself. Information collected online can generally be categorized as anonymous or personally identifiable. Anonymous information is information that cannot be connected to the identity of a specific individual. Personally identifiable information is information that specifically identifies a particular user, such as name, address, e-mail address or phone number. An example of anonymous information is the fact that, while this Site may record the number of visits to a particular page that occur in a given period of time, it does not necessarily tell us the names or other identifying information of every visitor. Many users of this Site will choose not to provide any personally identifiable information; therefore, those individuals are anonymous to us, and any data collected about their use of this Site is anonymous information.  Personally identifying information will be collected when you choose to follow us or connect with us via social media, in accordance with the privacy policies of those social media sites (Facebook, Google Plus, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest and Instagram). If you choose to make a purchase on this Site, we will collect information such as the items you purchase, payment method and payment information (such as debit or credit card number and information), billing and shipping address, and contact information (such as for receipts or order updates). If you choose to make an account on this Site, we will collect your profile and account information, which may include contact, purchase, and preference information as well as your account password, information about wish list items, items in your online shopping cart or saved for future purchase, product review information and other information about your profile or account.

We also record search requests and results to try to ensure the accuracy and efficiency of our search engine. We use your IP address to track your use of the site, including pages visited and the time spent on each page. We collect this information and use it to measure the use of this Site and to improve its content and performance. All of the information that is automatically submitted to us by your browser is considered anonymous information. To the extent we share such information with third parties, it is not traceable to any particular user and will not be used to contact you.

You may set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie or to prevent cookies from being sent; if you do so, this may limit the functionality we can provide you when you visit our Site.  Third parties that link on this site may use cookies or collect other information when you go to their site.

Your personal data may be stored, transferred and processed in and to the United States and in other countries by our affiliates and/or service providers. The laws that apply to the use and protection of personal information in the United States or other countries or jurisdictions in which we transfer or process personal information may be different than the laws and protections in your country. We take great care in protecting your personal data and have put in place adequate mechanisms to protect it when it is transferred internationally.

Transfer of Customer Information

Customer lists and information are properly considered assets of a business. Accordingly, if we merge with another entity or if we sell our assets to another entity, our customer lists and information, including personally identifiable information you have provided us, would be included among the assets that would be transferred.

Ecommerce and Affiliate Links Disclosure

We may receive compensation for participation in third-party affiliate marketing programs, including purchases made through links to our e-commerce partners, including Amazon, ESGI Software, and others.
