Changing or Deleting Your Information: 

You may update or correct information about yourself by emailing us at help@nside.io. We may retain an archived copy of your records as required by law, to comply with our legal obligations, to resolve disputes, to enforce our agreements or for other legitimate business purposes. We may contact you to request that you update your Personal Data on a regular basis to ensure its integrity for the purposes of ongoing data management. 

Our Opt-in/Opt-out Policy: 

By providing an email address or other contact information on the nSide site, you agree that we may contact you in the event of a change in this Privacy Policy, to provide you with any service-related notices, or to provide you with information about our events, invitations, or related educational information. For purposes of this Privacy Policy, “opt-in” is generally defined as any affirmative action by a user to submit or receive information, as the case may be. 

We currently provide the following opt-out opportunities: 

  1. At any time, you can follow a link provided in offers, newsletters or other email messages (except for e-commerce confirmation or service notice emails) received from us to unsubscribe from the service.
  2. At any time, you can contact us through help@nside.io or the address provided below to unsubscribe from the service and opt-out of our right per your consent under the terms of this Privacy Policy to share your Personal Data.

Third-Party Links:

The Sites may contain links to web pages operated by parties other than nSide. We do not control such websites and are not responsible for their contents or the privacy policies or other practices of such websites. Our inclusion of links to such websites does not imply any endorsement of the material on such websites or any association with their operators. Further, it is up to the User to take precautions to ensure that whatever links the User selects or software the User downloads (whether from this Site or other websites) is free of such items as viruses, worms, trojan horses, defects, and other items of a destructive nature. These websites and services may have their own privacy policies, which the User will be subject to upon linking to the third party’s website. nSide strongly recommends that each User review the third party’s terms and policies. 

International Transfer 

We are committed to complying with applicable laws, regulations and mandatory government standards regarding the protection of Personal Data. Since we are a global organization, Personal Data and any additional information submitted may be used globally in connection with employment, business processes within nSide, or communicating with our clients. Therefore, Personal Data may be transferred to other nSide entities worldwide, where it will be processed in accordance with this Privacy Policy and laws that are applicable in each country. Countries where we process data may have laws that are different, and potentially not as protective, as the laws of your own country. 

If we transfer your Personal Data out of your jurisdiction, we will implement suitable safeguards and rely on legally provided mechanisms to lawfully transfer data across borders to ensure that your Personal Data is protected. 

How We Protect Personal Data: 

nSide maintains administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect the User’s Personal Data and information against accidental, unlawful or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, access, disclosure or use. We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, taking into account technological reality, cost, the scope, context and purposes of processing weighted against the severity and likelihood that the processing could threaten individual rights and freedoms. For example, we use commercially reasonable security measures such as encryption, firewalls, and transport layer security (TLS) or hypertext transfer protocol secure (HTTPS) to protect Personal Data. If nSide collects account information for payment or credit, nSide will use the information only to complete the task for which the account information was offered. 

Children:

The Site is not intended for use by children. We do not intentionally gather Personal Data about visitors who are under the age of 13. If a child has provided us with Personal Data, a parent or guardian of that child may contact us to have the information deleted from our records. If you believe that we might have any information from a child under age 13, please contact us at help@nside.io. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected the personal information of a child under 13, or equivalent minimum age depending on the jurisdiction, we will take steps to delete the information as soon as possible. 

Direct Marketing and “Do Not Track” Signals: 

nSide does not track its customers over time and across third-party websites to provide targeted advertising and therefore does not respond to Do Not Track (DNT) signals. However, some third party sites do keep track of your browsing activities when they serve you content, which enables them to tailor what they present to you. If you are visiting such sites, your browser may include controls to block and delete cookies, web beacons and similar technologies, to allow you to opt out of data collection through those technologies. 

Privacy Rights Of California Residents:

California residents are entitled under the California Consumer Privacy Act to contact us for various purposes, including to request information about whether we have disclosed personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. We do not disclose personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. California residents have the right to be informed as to what personal information about them we may have, how we collected and may use that information and how to have it corrected or deleted, and may request further information about our compliance with this law by contacting us by one of the means listed in the “How to Contact Us” section below.” 

Changes to this Privacy Policy:

Our Privacy Policy may change from time to time. We will not reduce your rights under this Privacy Policy without your explicit consent. We will post any privacy policy changes on this page and, if the changes are significant, we will provide a more prominent notice (including, for certain services or products, email notification or privacy policy changes). We will also keep prior versions of this Privacy Policy in an archive for your review.

Student Privacy Pledge:

nSide is committed to protecting students and being an innovator within the commercial space. As such, nSide has committed to the following pledge to our clients, students, and stakeholders:

K-12 school service providers are honored to be entrusted by educators and families to support their educational needs and school operations. School service providers take responsibility to both support the effective use of student information and safeguard student privacy and information security.

School service providers support schools – including their teachers, students and parents – to manage student data, carry out school operations, support instruction and learning opportunities, and develop and improve products/services intended for educational/school use. In so doing, it is critical that schools and school service providers build trust by protecting the privacy of student information and effectively communicating with parents about how student information is used and safeguarded.

We pledge to carry out responsible stewardship and appropriate use of student personal information gathered in our role as school service providers according to the commitments below and in adherence to all laws applicable to us as school service providers.

We Commit To:

Not collect, maintain, use or share student personal information beyond that needed for authorized educational/school purposes, or as authorized by the parent/student.

Not sell student personal information.

Not use or disclose student information collected through an educational/school service (whether personal information or otherwise) for behavioral targeting of advertisements to students.

Not build a personal profile of a student other than for supporting authorized educational/school purposes or as authorized by the parent/student.

Not make material changes to school service provider consumer privacy policies without first providing prominent notice to the account holder(s) (i.e., the educational institution/agency, or the parent/student when the information is collected directly from the student with student/parent consent) and allowing them choices before data is used in any manner inconsistent with terms they were initially provided; and not make material changes to other policies or practices governing the use of student personal information that are inconsistent with contractual requirements.

Not knowingly retain student personal information beyond the time period required to support the authorized educational/school purposes, or as authorized by the parent/student.

Collect, use, share, and retain student personal information only for purposes for which we were authorized by the educational institution/agency, teacher or the parent/student.

Disclose clearly in contracts or privacy policies, including in a manner easy for parents and teachers to understand, what types of student personal information we collect, if any, and the purposes for which the information we maintain is used or shared with third parties.

Support access to and correction of student personally identifiable information by the student or their authorized parent, either by assisting the educational institution in meeting its requirements or directly when the information is collected directly from the student with student/parent consent.

Maintain a comprehensive security program that is reasonably designed to protect the security, privacy, confidentiality, and integrity of student personal information against risks – such as unauthorized access or use, or unintended or inappropriate disclosure – through the use of administrative, technological, and physical safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information.

Require that our vendors with whom student personal information is shared in order to deliver the educational service, if any, are obligated to implement these same commitments for the given student personal information.

Allow a successor entity to maintain the student personal information, in the case of our merger or acquisition by another entity, provided the successor entity is subject to these same commitments for the previously collected student personal information.

Compliance with F.E.R.P.A. and H.I.P.A.A.:

nSide Inc. is committed to complying with all applicable Federal and State regulations regarding the protecting of vital information regarding our users and those who will be referenced by using our software. As such, nSide has implemented extensive policies regarding information contemplated under F.E.R.P.A. and H.I.P.A.A. These policies include what we refer to as, Encryption in Transit, Encryption at Rest, and Isolation. The purpose of this is to ensure that at the point of collection, the point of use, and the point of storage, all personally identifiable information (PII) is maintained separately and apart from those who acquire it and those who assess it, such as the members of the Crisis Intervention Team. This means that the PII is not available to any party at any point on the platform to any person that is not authorized to view it nor has any purpose to view it which is not authorized under the exceptions to F.E.R.P.A. and/or H.I.P.A.A. Furthermore, this means that the information which is gathered is only used for the intended purpose to prevent the most extreme of emergency circumstances. PII shall however be released to the appropriate authorities upon request so long as a valid exigency exists. nSide shall, in conjunction with law enforcement and any school district administration, determine whether or not the PII will be transmitted after a request is made.
