Privacy Policy

The information we collect depends on how you use the Website.

We may collect information you voluntarily provide, including:

• Name
• Email address
• Account login information
• Billing address

Please do not provide confidential student records, medical information, disability information, individualized education program information, or personally identifiable student information through the Website.

Payment Information

Payments may be processed by a third-party payment processor such as Stripe.

Teacher Genie generally does not directly receive or store your complete debit-card or credit-card number. The payment processor may collect payment-card details, billing information, transaction information, fraud-prevention information, and other data necessary to complete the transaction.

The payment processor’s collection and use of your information are governed by its own privacy policy and terms.

We may use aggregated or de-identified information for analytics, business planning, product development, and Website improvement when that information cannot reasonably identify an individual.

Depending on your location and the circumstances, we may process personal information because:

• It is necessary to complete a transaction or provide a requested service
• You have given consent
• We have a legitimate business interest in operating, improving, and protecting the Website
• We need to comply with a legal obligation
• We need to establish, exercise, or defend legal rights

Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect processing that lawfully occurred before consent was withdrawn.

The Website and its service providers may use cookies, pixels, local storage, software-development tools, and similar technologies.

These technologies may be used to:

• Keep users signed in
• Remember shopping-cart contents and preferences
• Support account and checkout functions
• Maintain Website security
• Prevent fraudulent transactions
• Measure traffic and Website performance
• Understand how visitors navigate the Website
• Remember filter and display selections
• Evaluate marketing and advertising performance

Some cookies are necessary for the Website to function. Other cookies may support analytics, personalization, or advertising.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings and, where available, the Website’s cookie controls. Blocking necessary cookies may prevent certain Website features from working correctly.

Teacher Genie may use analytics services to understand Website traffic, visitor behavior, device information, referrals, product interest, and conversions.

If advertising services are enabled, they may use cookies or similar technologies to:

• Measure whether an advertisement led to a Website visit or purchase
• Limit repeated advertisements
• Create reports about campaign performance
• Deliver or improve advertising based on Website activity

Teacher Genie does not sell personal information for money.

If Teacher Genie begins using information for targeted or cross-context behavioral advertising in a way that creates an opt-out right under applicable law, we will provide the legally required notice and choice mechanism.

You may also be able to manage advertising preferences through your browser, device settings, or industry opt-out tools. Choices may need to be set separately on each browser and device.

Teacher Genie may share information with service providers that help operate the Website and business, including:

• Website hosting and application-platform providers
• Payment processors
• Email-delivery and newsletter providers
• Digital-file storage and delivery providers
• Analytics and performance providers
• Advertising and marketing providers
• Fraud-prevention and security providers
• Customer-support services
• Accounting, tax, legal, and professional advisers

These providers may access information only as reasonably necessary to perform services on our behalf or as otherwise permitted by their agreements and applicable law.

Current providers may include Base44 for Website infrastructure and Stripe for payment processing. Additional providers may be added or changed as the Website develops.

We may also disclose information:

• To comply with a subpoena, court order, law, or valid government request
• To investigate fraud, security threats, payment disputes, or policy violations
• To protect the rights, property, safety, and security of Teacher Genie, its customers, or others

We may retain limited information about an unsubscribe request to ensure that marketing messages are not sent again.

When you create an account, we may store information necessary to provide access to your profile, order history, purchased resources, saved products, and customer library.

You are responsible for protecting your login credentials. If you believe someone has accessed your account without permission, contact teachergenies@gmail.com promptly.

Account deletion may not remove records we must retain for transactions, fraud prevention, legal compliance, tax, accounting, or dispute-resolution purposes.

If you submit a review, rating, testimonial, photograph, comment, or similar content, information you choose to display may become publicly visible.

Do not submit:

• A student’s full name
• A recognizable student photograph
• Student contact information
• School records
• Medical or disability information
• Individualized education program information
• Other confidential or personally identifiable student information

Teacher Genie may moderate or remove submitted content that violates our policies, infringes another person’s rights, or creates a privacy or safety concern.

Teacher Genie creates educational resources that may be used with children, but the Website and online store are intended for educators, parents, caregivers, school personnel, and other adults.

The Website is not intended for children under 13 to create accounts, make purchases, subscribe to marketing emails, submit reviews, or provide personal information directly to Teacher Genie.

Teacher Genie does not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has submitted personal information through the Website, contact teachergenies@gmail.com so that we can investigate and, where appropriate, delete it.

Educators and other customers must not upload or submit personally identifiable student information through the Website.

Teacher Genie retains personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to:

• Provide products and services
• Maintain customer accounts and purchase access
• Complete transactions
• Respond to customer requests
• Maintain tax, accounting, and business records
• Prevent fraud and unauthorized resource sharing
• Resolve disputes and payment claims
• Enforce agreements
• Comply with legal obligations

Retention periods may vary according to the type of information and the reason it was collected.

When information is no longer reasonably needed, we may delete, anonymize, or securely dispose of it, subject to technical limitations and legal requirements.

Teacher Genie uses reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards intended to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

However, no website, transmission method, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You use the Website and transmit information at your own risk.

You can help protect your information by:

• Using a strong, unique password
• Keeping your login credentials private
• Signing out on shared devices
• Avoiding the submission of sensitive student information
• Contacting Teacher Genie promptly about suspected unauthorized activity

Depending on where you live and subject to applicable exceptions, you may have the right to:

• Request access to personal information held about you
• Request correction of inaccurate information
• Request deletion of certain information
• Request a copy of information you provided
• Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
• Opt out of marketing communications
• Object to or restrict certain processing
• Opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information where applicable
• Appeal the denial of a privacy request where applicable
• Receive equal service without unlawful discrimination for exercising privacy rights

To submit a privacy request, email teachergenies@gmail.com with the subject line “Privacy Request.”

Please include:

• Your name
• The email address associated with your account or purchase
• The type of request
• Enough information for us to locate the relevant records

We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request. We will use verification information only for that purpose.

An authorized agent may submit a request where permitted by law, but we may require evidence of the agent’s authority and verification of the consumer’s identity.

Residents of certain U.S. states may have additional privacy rights under applicable state law.

These rights may include access, correction, deletion, data portability, opt-out, limitation, appeal, and nondiscrimination rights.

Teacher Genie will honor legally applicable privacy rights based on the customer’s place of residence and the scope of the relevant law.

Teacher Genie does not sell personal information for money. If our practices change, we will update this Privacy Policy and provide any legally required notice or opt-out mechanism.

Teacher Genie is operated in the United States.

If you access the Website from another country, your information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in the United States or other countries where our service providers operate.

Privacy and data-protection laws in those locations may differ from the laws in your country. Where required, we will use an appropriate legal basis or safeguard for international data transfers.

The Website may contain links to third-party websites or use services operated by third parties.

Teacher Genie is not responsible for the privacy, security, content, or practices of third-party websites and services. Review the privacy policy of each third party before providing personal information.

This Privacy Policy applies only to information processed by or on behalf of Teacher Genie.

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is not yet a universally accepted standard for responding to every Do Not Track signal, the Website may not respond to all such signals.

Where required by applicable law and supported by our Website technology, Teacher Genie will recognize qualifying browser-based opt-out preference signals, such as the Global Privacy Control.

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our Website, services, service providers, business practices, or legal obligations.

The revised version will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. If a change materially affects how personal information is used, we may provide additional notice where required.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
