Privacy Policy

This privacy policy applies to our Services and our websites, and describes the steps we take to protect your data. It details the terms surrounding our use of the personally identifiable information we collect, and our information gathering, use, maintenance, and dissemination practices necessary for the Services.

As you are navigating between school and related sites, please be aware that other parties’ privacy policies may come into play. If you are using any of the Services through a customer of Lightspeed Systems this policy does not supersede the terms of any agreements between Lightspeed Systems and any other party, nor does it affect the terms of any agreement between any End User of the Services and their employer, their educational institution, or any third party. Please make sure that you read the terms of any privacy policies that you enter into with parties other than Lightspeed Systems including your employer or educational institution, as those policies may also explain how your personal information is used by those parties. If you are accessing Lightspeed Systems through a third-party, public, or unsecured internet provider, please be advised that any information you disclose or publish during the course of such access may be collected by any such provider and that Lightspeed Systems has no control and makes no representation as to the possible use of this information by any such provider.

Please note that each School controls its instance of the Services and any associated data processed within that instance (“School Data”). If you have any questions about a School’s privacy practices, please contact the applicable School. For more information about who is the controller of data and under what circumstances, refer to the “Your Rights Regarding Your Data” section below.

We collect the following types of information:

Information about School Personnel: Schools decide which data is integrated with our Services. When a School administrator registers a School with Lightspeed Systems or corresponds with us online, we ask for certain information including a contact name, school name, school district, school email address, school physical address and/or account name, phone number, job title, message content, and information relating to the School’s information systems. We may also retain information provided by a School if the School sends us a message, posts content to our website or through our Services, or responds to emails or surveys. Once a School begins using Services provided by Lightspeed Systems, we will keep records of activities related to the Services. We use this information to operate, maintain, and provide the features and functionality of the Services, including customer service, support, and billing; to analyze our offerings and functionality; to communicate with our Schools and website visitors; to exchange information, and to offer related services such as user group membership and event registration.

Student Data: Lightspeed Systems may have access to personally identifiable information about students (“Student Data”) in the course of providing Services to a School, including student name, email address, device information/identifiers and usage data We recognize Student Data is confidential and do not use such data for any purpose other than to provide the Services on the School’s behalf. Lightspeed Systems receives Student Data only from the School and never interacts with the Student directly. The School confirms that it has obtained appropriate parental consent, as needed before the student is permitted to access the Services. Lightspeed Systems has access to Student Data only as requested by the School and only for the purposes of performing Services on the School’s behalf.

We may also generate a login ID for the child that is different than the child’s actual name or under the School’s direction, collect login/authentication data via a student information system identification number or other system designated by Customer.

Parent Data: When a parent uses the Services, including the parent portal, Lightspeed Systems may collect their full name and email address. We use this information to operate, maintain, and provide the features and functionality of the Services, including customer service and support; to analyze our offerings and functionality; and to communicate with parents.

Parents should consult the school’s acceptable/responsible use, social media, personnel, and instructional policies for more information about the school’s policies and practices for protecting children on the internet. Teachers are reminded to also be aware of their obligations under the ethical standards for educators in their state and to be conscious of their role as a model for students while interacting with students using Services provided by Lightspeed Systems.

See “Student Safety” below for further explanation of our commitment to online student safety.

We may collect data for Schools to monitor and generate reports of their users’ online search queries, websites visited or blocked from visiting recorded web activity, and device geolocation for purpose of asset recovery. In addition, we may monitor Schools’ onboarding tasks completed, search queries on our sites, number of users’ sessions on our websites, city and state/province where last accessing our Services, responses to our survey questions, and content provided on managed devices via customizable fields.

We may also match non-personally identifiable information from registered members with personally identifiable information (such as the member’s name, title) in our database to track deployment progress, troubleshoot Services issues, analyze usage, and otherwise monitor Services to make improvements.

Lightspeed Systems and its third-party service providers use cookies (both session and persistent cookies) and other tracking mechanisms to automatically collect information including IP addresses, session sources, and other data which tracks End Users’ access to the Services. We may combine this information with other personal information we collect from you (and our third-party service providers may do so on our behalf).

Privacy Information for California Residents – CCPA & CPRA California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)

California law requires us to provide some additional information regarding your rights with respect to your “personal information” (as defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)).

In many cases, if you are a California resident, the CCPA allows you to make certain requests about your personal information. Specifically, unless certain exceptions apply, the CCPA allows you to request us to:

• Inform you about the categories of personal information we collect or disclose about you; the categories of sources of such information; the business or commercial purpose for collecting your personal information; and the categories of third parties with whom we share/disclose personal information.
• Provide access to and/or a copy of certain personal information we hold about you.
• Delete certain personal information we have about you.
• Provide you with information about certain financial incentives that we offer to you, if any.

You also have certain rights under the CCPA not to be subject to certain negative consequences for exercising CCPA rights.

We reserve the right to verify your identity before responding to a request, which may include, at a minimum, depending on the sensitivity of the information you are requesting and the type of request you are making, verifying your name, email address, phone number, or other information. You are also permitted to designate an authorized agent to submit certain requests on your behalf. In order for an authorized agent to be verified, you must provide the authorized agent with signed, written permission to make such requests or a power of attorney. We may also follow up with you to verify your identity before processing the authorized agent’s request.

Please note that certain information may be exempt from such requests under California law. For example, we need certain information in order to provide the Services to you or to comply with legal obligations, so we would need to either reject your request to delete the information or, if we are legally permitted to delete it, we would need to terminate our provision of the Services to you after deleting it. If you would like further information regarding your legal rights under California law or would like to exercise any of them, please contact us at [email protected] or write to us using the contact details provided in the “How to Contact Lightspeed Systems” section below.

California Privacy Act (CPRA)

The California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) is a data privacy law that amends and expands upon the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). The law takes effect on January 1, 2023, and includes additional privacy protections for consumers.

Expanded Rights under CPRA

• Right to Access Information: Building upon the CCPA right to request access to the personal information a business has collected about a person in the preceding 12-month period, the California Privacy Rights Act expands this to include any information collected—regardless of when it was collected—unless doing so proves impossible or would involve a disproportionate effort.
• Right to Opt-Out of Sharing Information with Third Parties: The California Privacy Rights Act clarifies that people can opt out of both the sale and sharing of their personal information to third parties. This was a point of contention under the CCPA where the definition of sell does not explicitly include sharing.
• Right to Sue Businesses When They Expose Usernames and Passwords: The CCPA gave people the right to sue a business directly when it exposes their personal information through a data breach resulting from a failure to use reasonable security measures. The California Privacy Rights Act expands this to cover data breaches where the personal information that was exposed includes a username and password.
• More information about CPRA can be found here: https://thecpra.org/
• Visit our Trust Page to find out how Lightspeed Systems complies with CPRA
