PREP2TEACH

PRIVACY POLICY

Effective Date: [08/01/2026 | 

This Privacy Policy explains how Prep2Teach (“Prep2Teach,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, discloses, and protects personal information when you visit our website, enroll in or access our online course materials, or engage our consulting services (collectively, the “Services”). By using the Services, you agree to the practices described in this Policy.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Information You Provide Directly

• Account information: name, email address, password, and account preferences.

• Payment information: billing name, address, and payment card details (processed by our third-party payment processor — see Section 4).

• Consulting-related information: information you or your organization share with us in the course of engagement, which may include internal curriculum materials, staff or program details, and communications (email, calls, meeting notes).

• Communications: messages you send us through contact forms, email, or support channels.

1.2 Information Collected Automatically

• Usage data: pages visited, features used, time spent on the platform, and course interaction patterns.

• Device and technical data: IP address, browser type, operating system, and device identifiers.

• Cookies and similar technologies: used for authentication, remembering preferences, analytics, and (where applicable) marketing. See Section 6.

1.3 Information From Third Parties

• Payment confirmation and fraud-prevention data from our payment processor.

• Information from your organization or employer, if you are accessing the Services through an institutional or district license.

2. How We Use Information

We use personal information to:

• Provide, operate, and maintain the Services, including delivering course content and tracking progress;

• Process payments and manage billing;

• Provide consulting services and communicate with clients about engagements;

• Respond to inquiries and provide customer support;

• Send administrative communications, such as updates to this Policy or the Terms of Use;

• Send marketing communications, where permitted, which you may opt out of at any time;

• Monitor, analyze, and improve the Services;

• Detect, prevent, and address fraud, security issues, or technical problems; and

• Comply with legal obligations.

3. Legal Bases for Processing (EEA/UK Users)

If you are located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we process personal information on the following legal bases: performance of a contract (e.g., providing course access or consulting services you purchased), our legitimate interests (e.g., improving the Services, security), your consent (e.g., certain marketing communications or cookies), and compliance with legal obligations.

4. How We Share Information

We do not sell personal information. We may share information with:

• Service providers who perform functions on our behalf, such as payment processing (e.g., Stripe), course hosting (e.g., Thinkrific), email delivery, and analytics;

• Consulting clients or their designated staff, limited to information relevant to the specific engagement;

• Professional advisors, such as legal or accounting professionals, as needed;

• Regulators or authorities, where required by law, subpoena, or legal process;

• A successor entity, in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets; and

• Other parties with your consent.

Each service provider is authorized to use personal information only as necessary to provide their services to us and is contractually or otherwise required to protect that information.

5. Student and Education-Sector Data

If you are accessing the Services as part of a school, district, or educational organization's program, or if our consulting engagement involves reviewing or working with data about students, we handle that information consistent with applicable education privacy laws, including the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and applicable state student data privacy laws, to the extent they apply. Where we act as a “school official” or service provider under such a relationship, we use student data solely to provide the contracted services and do not use it for independent commercial purposes such as targeted advertising. Institutional clients should contact us at [[email protected]] to execute any data processing or student data privacy addendum required by their district or organization.

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Services, remember your preferences, and understand how the Services are used. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the Services. Where required by law, we will request your consent before using non-essential cookies.

7. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to provide the Services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Consulting engagement records may be retained for a longer period where required by contractual or legal obligations (for example, institutional recordkeeping requirements).

8. Data Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. International Data Transfers

Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards, such as Standard Contractual Clauses, for such transfers.

11. Children's Privacy

The Services are intended for use by adults, including educators and professionals, and are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13.

If you believe a child has provided us with personal information directly, contact us at [[email protected]] so we can address it.
