This COPPA Notice describes how EdTomorrow handles information when
students, including children under 13, use our classroom features. It
explains what information is collected, how it is used, how it is
protected, and the rights available to parents and schools under the
Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).
Student-Facing Features. Students may use certain
EdTomorrow features in the classroom, including joining a class game at
edtgo.com with a game code and a nickname, playing the daily Brain Game
on our ad-free games pages, and participating in interactive activities
displayed by a teacher. Students do not create accounts or log in.
Accounts are for educators and other adults 18 and older.
Information We Collect From Children. EdTomorrow
collects only the technical information necessary for a student to
participate in a classroom activity. This includes a persistent
identifier such as an IP address used solely to maintain a live game
connection, and a short, non-identifying value used to limit abuse in
class leaderboards. This information is used solely for internal
operations of the service under 16 CFR §312.5(c)(7). We do not use it to
advertise to children, build profiles of students, contact anyone, or
track students across sites or services. We do not require students to
provide more information than is reasonably necessary to
participate.
No Advertising or Third-Party Tracking.
Student-facing pages, including our interactive party games (The Hot
Seat, Hunch, Training Trivia), the daily Brain Game, the Brain Games
Hub, and the game player, are served without advertising, ad cookies, or
third-party tracking tags. No ad network and no third-party analytics
run on those pages. The only measurement is our own count of how many
times a page is played, which contains no information about the
visitor.
Nicknames and Leaderboards. Nicknames entered by
students in live games are shown only during gameplay and are not stored
after the session ends. We ask students not to use their real names.
Class leaderboards show only a nickname or a teacher-chosen class name
(for example, “Ms. Hall’s 5th Period”); entries reset each season and
contain no student identifiers beyond a short, non-identifying value,
which is deleted within 60 days. Some games (for example, Training
Trivia) also include an all-time high-score board: entries show only the
nickname or initials entered and a score, inappropriate names are
filtered automatically, and entries are removed upon request.
Teacher Class Lists. Educators with a First Five
Plus account may save class lists for classroom tools such as name
pickers and boards. These lists are visible only to the educator, are
never public, are never used for advertising, and are deleted when the
educator deletes them or closes the account. Parents or schools may
request deletion at any time.
Mixed-Age Classrooms. When students under 13 and
over 13 use the same classroom tools, all student-facing features
operate under COPPA’s internal operations exception and do not collect
personal information requiring parental consent.
Internal Operations Only. Persistent identifiers
used for gameplay are used solely to support the internal operations of
the service under 16 CFR §312.5(c)(7). They are not used for
advertising, profiling, or cross-site tracking.
Teacher Authorization (School as Agent). For
classroom use, teachers and schools may act as the responsible parties
for educational features, consistent with COPPA and Federal Trade
Commission guidance on school authorization. Before authorizing use,
EdTomorrow provides schools with a description of the categories of
information collected through student-facing features and how that
information is used. This authorization applies only to uses that
benefit the school and its students in an educational context. Any use
outside that context would require verifiable parental consent.
Parental and School Rights. Parents, guardians, and
schools may review any personal information collected from a child,
request deletion of that information, and request cessation of further
collection. Schools acting as agents may submit these requests on behalf
of parents. Requests may be submitted to info@edtomorrow.com, and we
will verify and process them promptly.
Inadvertent Collection. If EdTomorrow ever
inadvertently collects personal information from a child, we delete it
upon discovery or upon a verified request.
