If you are located in the EU or UK, this section applies to you.

■ If it is reasonable to expect collection and use with consent would compromise the availability or the accuracy of the information and the collection is reasonable for purposes related to investigating a breach of an agreement or a contravention of the laws of Canada or a province
■ If disclosure is required to comply with a subpoena, warrant, court order, or rules of the court relating to the production of records
■ If it was produced by an individual in the course of their employment, business, or profession and the collection is consistent with the purposes for which the information was produced

Any and all personal information collected on the Site will be kept strictly confidential and will not be sold, reused, rented, disclosed, or loaned to third parties, except as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy.
WHAT ARE YOUR CHOICES CONCERNING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?
Our clients (e.g., schools and libraries) are responsible for notification of purpose and for obtaining appropriate consent, to the extent required by law, when they collect personal information that is transferred to us.
If we are instructed by our clients to transmit communications on their behalf, clients remain responsible for ensuring that recipients have consented to receiving such communications and that the information contained in the communications are accurate and complete.
We do not sell, rent, or share the personal information of our users with third parties for such third parties’ own marketing purposes.
We may, subject to applicable laws, use personal information from our users to contact them about the Site and Services, including to provide them with information on additional products from us that may be of interest to them. Our users may exercise choices regarding these communications as follows:
§ Mail marketing, Telephone marketing, Surveys and Quality control communications (as applicable). You may decide that you prefer that we not use your personal information to promote new and/or additional products and/or services which may be of interest to you and refuse that we contact you by mail or telephone for marketing purposes or by email or telephone for quality control purposes. If this is the case, you may advise us by contacting customer service or contacting us using the information detailed in the Contacting us section below. For clarity, we will not use any students’ personal information that we receive from or in connection with a school (collectively, “Student Personal Data”) for marketing-related communications. For more information about Student Personal Data, see section 8 below.
§ Emails/Commercial Electronic Communications. You can always limit the communications that we send to you. To opt-out of commercial emails, simply click the link labeled “unsubscribe” or “opt-out” at the bottom of any commercial electronic communication we send you. For clarity, students are automatically opted out of commercial electronic communications that do not specifically relate to the provision or support of the Services in which such students participate. Please note that even if you opt-out of promotional communications, we may still need to contact you with important information about your account.
TRANSFER OF PERSONAL INFORMATION TO OTHER COUNTRIES
In some cases, personal information that we process, including information from our users located in various countries, including in Canada, the EU and Switzerland or relative to queries or visitors to the Site may be transferred to the United States or other countries that may not have data privacy laws that provide the same protection as the countries where you reside. You understand that your personal information may therefore be transferred, processed and stored outside of your country of residence, and therefore may be available to government authorities under lawful orders and laws applicable in such foreign jurisdictions. Data for students in the United States will not be transferred to other countries.
RIGHT TO LODGE COMPLAINTS
We are transparent about the ways in which we collect and use personal information, and welcome your questions and concerns. If you have any concern or complaint about the way we handle your personal information, please contact us as described below. To the extent you believe we have not addressed your concerns or otherwise choose to do so, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority in the country where you reside and/or in the United States. For information on how you can file a privacy complaint with the Federal Trade Commission, please visit:https://www.ftc.gov/media/71268
HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?
In Short: We keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this privacy notice unless otherwise required by law.
We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy notice, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements).
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?
In Short: We aim to protect your personal information through a system of organizational and technical security measures.
We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment.
DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM MINORS?
In Short: We do not knowingly collect data from or market to children under 18 years of age.
Students using ClamQuest through a single-sign on connection are not able to enter personally identifiable information. If we learn that a child under the age of 13 has submitted personal information online without parental consent, we will take all reasonable measures to delete such information from our databases and to not use such information for any purpose (except where necessary to protect the safety of the child or others as required or allowed by law). If you become aware of any personal information we have collected from children under age 13 without parental consent, please contact us using the information detailed in the Contacting us section below.
We take our role as stewards of Student Personal Data very seriously. We collect and use Student Personal Data only as necessary to provide the applicable school-related Services. WE DO NOT (a) sell or monetize Student Personal Data; (b) display advertising to students on the school-related Services; or (c) authorize behavioral tracking by third parties on the school-related Services for the purpose of targeted advertising or to show ads on such Services.
WHAT ARE YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS?
In Short: In some regions, such as the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom (UK), and Canada, you have rights that allow you greater access to and control over your personal information. You may review, change, or terminate your account at any time.
In some regions (like the EEA, UK, and Canada), you have certain rights under applicable data protection laws. These may include the right (i) to request access and obtain a copy of your personal information, (ii) to request rectification or erasure; (iii) to restrict the processing of your personal information; and (iv) if applicable, to data portability. In certain circumstances, you may also have the right to object to the processing of your personal information. You can make such a request by contacting us by using the contact details provided in the section "HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?" below.

Withdrawing your consent: If we are relying on your consent to process your personal information, which may be express and/or implied consent depending on the applicable law, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us by using the contact details provided in the section "HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?" below.
However, please note that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal, nor when applicable law allows, will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.

YOUR CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS
If you are a California resident, California law provides you with the following rights with respect to your personal information:
§ The right to know what personal information we have collected, used, disclosed and sold about you. To submit a request to know, you may contact us using the contact information detailed in the Contacting us section below (with “REQUEST FOR INFORMATION” in the subject line). You also may designate an authorized agent to make a request for access on your behalf.
§ The right to request that we delete any personal information we have collected about you. To submit a request for deletion, you may contact us using the contact information detailed in the Contacting us section below (with “REQUEST FOR PERSONAL INFORMATION DELETION” in the subject line). You also may designate an authorized agent to make a request for deletion on your behalf.
When you exercise these rights and submit a request to us, we may verify your identity. We also may use a third party verification provider to verify your identity. Your exercise of these rights will have no adverse effect on the price and quality of our goods or services.

CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES
Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track ("DNT") feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this privacy notice.
HOW IS THIS PRIVACY POLICY ENFORCED?
We have put in place mechanisms to monitor and verify our ongoing adherence to this Privacy Policy. We encourage individuals covered by this Privacy Policy to raise any concerns that they have about the way that we process their personal information by contacting us as described below. We take your questions and concerns seriously, and we will use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve them.

We encourage you to review this privacy notice frequently to be informed of how we are protecting your information.
