Effective Date: October 12, 2023.
Avrio is dedicated to supporting educators with AI tools, and we take the privacy of our users seriously. Keeping students’ personal information safe is a priority at Avrio. This Student Privacy Policy explains how we use the personal information we collect from and about students when they engage with Avrio in the classroom through the products that are offered to schools and teachers in Avrio for Schools and our individual plans for teachers (the “School Services”). As set forth below, we use such personal information solely as a service provider or “data processor” to our school and school district customers.
To learn about our practices with respect to other users, including teachers who sign up for Avrio and student accountholders who use Avrio outside of the school environment, please read our Privacy Policy.
As a trusted provider of tools that help teachers and schools make learning exciting for students, Avrio is particularly concerned about the use of students’ personal information. We only request the personal information of students that we need to provide the School Services, and we comply with privacy laws, such as the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (“FERPA”) and the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”), as applicable.
Avrio does not collect, retain, use or share students’ personal information, except as necessary for authorized school purposes, at the direction of our school and school district customers. Without limitation, this means that:
We support our school customers in providing parents and eligible students with access to their personal information and in fulfilling other requests that parents and eligible students may make, such as to request deletion of students’ personal information or to refuse its further collection or use. Avrio maintains a comprehensive program designed to protect the security, privacy, confidentiality and integrity of students’ personal information.
Student users: Avrio collects only a display name, which is anonymous and not linked to a persistent identifier, from a student who joins an Avrio stream. We use the display name to permit the student to play.
No personal information is collected automatically from students who engage with Avrio through the School Services. Product usage data that is collected by Avrio from the School Services is always anonymized or aggregated and cannot be linked to individual students.
We may anonymize and/or aggregate personal information so that it no longer identifies any student. We may use and disclose such anonymized and/or aggregated information for any purpose, including for analytics purposes, to help us understand how our products are used and improve upon them.
