Privacy Policy

Respecting your privacy is critically important to achieving our mission of motivating every student. These are our guiding privacy principles:

  • We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it.
  • We don’t keep your personal information longer than is necessary to provide our services to you.
  • We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, provide our services, or protect our rights.
  • We don’t rent, sell or exchange your personal information.
  • We aim to make it as simple as possible for you to control what’s visible to the public, seen by search engines, kept private, and permanently deleted.

This Privacy Policy describes how indianarmy collects, uses, shares, stores and protects your personally identifiable information and how you can access, update, delete, limit, and otherwise halt the use of this information. We offer you choices regarding the collection, use, and sharing of your personal information, including the option to use services without providing personal information.

We strive to support as many people as possible, including those with disabilities. If a screen reader makes this policy more accessible to you, we recommend the following browser and screen reader combinations: Chrome and ChromeVox, Safari and VoiceOver (for Mac users), and Firefox and NVDA (for Windows users).

Protecting students and their personal information

indianarmy believes the personally identifiable information of children and students deserves special protections and we comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) and The General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). We also assist schools in meeting their obligations pursuant to the Family Educational Rights Privacy Act (“FERPA”). indianarmy offers a limited feature set and web site experience for young users of indianarmy. We do not require students to submit their name or contact information, nor do we require them to create accounts. When a student indicates that they are under the age when they can grant consent on their own, indianarmy does not collect personal information as defined under COPPA and may take additional steps to safeguard student privacy as required by law. Except as described in this privacy policy, indianarmy does not accumulate personal information about any child for distribution, sharing, or selling.

Here are some examples of safety and privacy measures on indianarmy:

  • Behaviorally targeted advertising is not permitted on indianarmy.
  • Students can join games without creating an account.
  • Students who have not or cannot provide consent have a limited product experience.
  • The platform does not facilitate direct messaging between students.
  • Quizzes are subject to proactive content filters and reactive reporting tools.

Parental Rights

indianarmy empowers parents and legal guardians of children younger than the age of consent (in the U.S., this means under 13) who have registered accounts with indianarmy to exercise their legal rights pursuant to legislation such as COPPA. Parents/guardians can consent to collection and use by indianarmy of a child's personally identifiable information (PII) without consenting to the disclosure of information to third parties by indianarmy. Currently, the only personal information we collect from a child younger than 13 is their parent's or guardian’s email address.

Parents/guardians may delete, modify, and review information their children shared with indianarmy by accessing their child's account. They may also create a parent account to manage their child’s access to indianarmy. Parents may also request that indianarmy delete that information and refuse to allow indianarmy to collect further information from their children by contacting us at privacy@indianarmy.com. indianarmy may ask additional questions or take other steps to verify the identity of parents/guardians before responding to a request to review or delete their child's information, or a request to refuse further collection from children.

indianarmy will never require a child to share more information than is reasonably necessary for using indianarmy. While indianarmy will assign persistent identifiers to all indianarmy users to recognize repeat visitors and improve their indianarmy experience, indianarmy does not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children younger than the age of consent without a parent or guardian's consent. If we become aware, despite our intention not to gather this information, that we collected personally identifiable information from a child younger than the age of consent without permission then we will either delete this information or seek to obtain verifiable parental consent from the child’s parent or guardian to collect and use that data to provide the child with indianarmy services in the future.

How indianarmy Collects Personal Information

The information that indianarmy collects depends on the nature of the services you request. For example, fewer data are collected from a student joining a game without an account than from a teacher who creates an account in order to create quizzes and host games. All interactions with the indianarmy website or app produce metadata that may identify you or could be identifiable information when paired with other information about you. In every case, indianarmy strives to collect only the minimum necessary information from you as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor's interaction with indianarmy or that is required by law. Visitors to the indianarmy website or app may always refuse to supply personally identifying information, however, doing so may prevent you from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Information you provide to indianarmy

Accounts are not a prerequisite to using indianarmy, but are required to access some features and to save progress over time. If you create an account, indianarmy saves the account information you provide. This information may include: an email address, a parent or guardian email address, first name, last name, profile photo, or organization name.

You may choose not to provide specific information or to delete or modify it at any time. These actions may prevent you from engaging with specific services or features that require this information.

Additional information may be provided to indianarmy if you communicate with our support team, participate in user research, marketing campaigns or sweepstakes, or otherwise use the services.

As you use the service, you may also create academic content including quizzes and certain forms of responses. This information is not typically personally identifying, but it may be deleted at any time either by the relevant account holder or by reaching out to our team at support@indianarmy.com.

Information collected automatically

We receive and store some types of information automatically as you use the service. These may include device information such as device model, operating system, and device identifiers such as IDFA and UDID.

indianarmy also collects log information as you use the service. These data may include information regarding how and when you use the service as well as your browser type, preferred language, time zone, referring site, and internet protocol (IP) address.

Information from other sources

Depending on how you use the service, indianarmy may collect information from partners and integrated technologies. For example, if you choose to use Google Login or join using the Google Classroom integration, we may receive information including your name and email address from Google. indianarmy does not have access to the passwords used to log into your Google accounts.

We may also receive your personal information from another user. For example, a teacher might input your email in order to share a quiz or parent report. If a teacher chooses to enter student information directly into indianarmy or requires students to sign up via the Google Classroom Integration, Classes on indianarmy, or a similar rostering functionality, we require that teachers or schools get parental consent before using indianarmy with children who are under the age when they can grant consent on their own.

Content on indianarmy may contain links to other websites not affiliated with the service. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other websites and users need to be aware of the data privacy practices of such sites should they choose to use these links.
