Privacy policy
EFFECTIVE: May 1, 2017
This Privacy Policy
governs the manner in which Intervene Education System ('Intervene') collects,
uses, maintains and discloses information collected from users (each, a 'User')
of its www.intervene.io Site and any derivative or affiliated Sites on which
this Privacy Policy is posted (collectively, the 'Site'). Please note that this
Privacy Policy covers Intervene' practices regarding information collected from
its Site.
The Information Intervene
Collects
Like most website
operators, Intervene collects non-personally-identifying information of the
sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the
browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of
each visitor request. Our purpose in collecting non-personally identifying
information is to better understand how our visitors use our Site.
Additionally,
certain visitors to Intervene' Site choose to interact with us in ways that
require us to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of
information that we gather depends on the nature of the interaction. Those who
engage in transactions with us online – by purchasing packages of
tutoring hours – are asked to provide additional information, such as the
personal and financial information required to process those transactions. Intervene
also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet
Protocol (IP) addresses. We do not use such information to identify our
visitors, however, and do not disclose such information, other than under the
same circumstances that we use and disclose personally-identifying information,
as described below. A User browsing the Site without registering an account or
affirmatively providing personally identifiable information to Intervene does
so anonymously.
Intervene may
collect personally identifiable information from customers in a variety of
ways. Personally identifiable information may include (i)
contact data (such as a customer's name, mailing and e-mail addresses); (ii)
financial data (such as amount purchased on our site) ; and (iii) demographic
data (such as a customer's zip code, or school name). If you
communicate with Intervene by e-mail; post messages to forums; make telephone
or cell phone calls, communicate through electronic devices or other
interactive devices; complete online forms, surveys or contest entries; or
communicate with Intervene by any means, any information provided in such
communication may be collected by Intervene. Intervene may also collect
information about how customers use our Site, for example, by tracking the
number of unique views received by the pages of the Site, or the domains from
which customers originate.
Refer-A-Friend
Your friend may
contact us at learn@p2g.org to request that we remove this information from our database.
Information Sharing
It is Intervene'
policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect through
the Site, e-mail, phone, or any other communications we have with you. We treat
the confidential information you share with us, such as students' academic
performance and any financial information, with the utmost respect. Intervene
will not disclose student records with third parties under any circumstance,
except as required by applicable law.
We may, however,
share a student's information with the tutor(s) who may or will be providing
tutoring to the student so that they may evaluate the behavior, engagement and
personalize and tailor the tutoring to the student. In each case, we collect
such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the
purpose of the visitor's interaction with Intervene. We do not disclose
personally-identifying information other than as described below in the section
'How Intervene Uses Information'. We also do not collect personally identifying information on students.
We only collect student first and last names, school, and teacher name at this time.
Visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them
from engaging in certain Site-related activities.
Tracking
Technologies
Intervene and our
analytics and marketing providers use technologies such as cookies, beacons,
tags, and scripts, to analyze trends, administer the Site, track users'
movements around the Site, and to gather demographic information about our User
base as a whole. We may receive reports based on the use of these technologies
by these companies on an individual and aggregated basis.
We use cookies for
for authentication. Each User can control the use of cookies at the individual
browser level. If you reject cookies, you may still use our Site, but your ability
to use some features or areas of our Site may be limited.
As is true of most
websites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log
files. This information may include Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser
type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system,
date/time stamp, and/or clickstream data. We may combine this automatically
collected log information with other information we collect about you. We do
this to improve services we offer you and to improve marketing, analytics, or
site functionality.
LSOs
Third Parties, with
whom we partner to provide certain features on our Site or to display
advertising based upon your Web browsing activity, use LSOs such as HTML 5 to
collect and store information. Various browsers may offer their own management
tools for removing HTML5 LSOs.

Correcting,
Updating, Accessing or Removing Personal Information
To the extent

User's zip code), or if a User no longer desires to receive non-account
specific information from Intervene, Intervene will endeavor to provide a way
to correct, update, delete, and/or remove that User's previously-provided
personal data. This can be done by emailing a request to Intervene at learn@p2g.org.

as collected by Intervene by sending a request to Intervene as set forth above.
We will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe. We will retain
your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide
you services. We will retain and use your information as necessary to comply
with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
Legal Disclaimer

disclose personally identifiable information at the request of law enforcement
or governmental agencies or in response to subpoenas, court orders, or other

by law. Intervene may disclose personally identifiable information in order to
protect the rights, property, or safety of a User or any other person. Intervene

The regulations define "personally identifiable information" so that it includes, but is not limited to:

personally identifiable information for children under the age of 13 years.
