Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 06, 2025
Introduction
Frizzle, Inc. ('we', 'us', or 'our') is committed to protecting the privacy of all users, including students, educators, and school administrators. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect personal information in compliance with applicable laws such as FERPA, COPPA, SOPPA, NY Ed Law 2-d, and other relevant student privacy regulations.
1. Information We Collect
We collect limited personal information from students only as necessary to provide educational services. This includes student names and performance data as provided by schools or educators.
2. How We Use Information
We use personal information solely to deliver and improve our educational services, comply with legal obligations, and provide support to educators and schools. Data is never used for advertising or sold to third parties.
3. Compliance with FERPA
We act as a 'school official' under FERPA, meaning we use student data only for authorized educational purposes, with control remaining in the hands of the school. We will enter into Data Privacy Agreements (DPAs) as required.
4. Compliance with COPPA
For children under the age of 13, we do not collect personal data without verifiable parental or school consent. Parents have the right to review and delete their child’s information.
5. Compliance with SOPPA, NY Ed Law 2-d, and SDPC
We support school compliance with SOPPA, NY Ed Law 2-d, and SDPC frameworks by providing: clear data governance, breach notification within legally mandated timelines, data deletion on request, and school-specific contracts outlining data usage.
5A. Google User Data
If you log in via Google, we may access certain Google account information such as your name, email address, and profile picture. This data is used solely for user authentication, account setup, and optional personalization. We do not request or access additional Google account data (e.g., calendar, contacts, or drive files) unless explicitly stated. We do not use your Google data for advertising, nor do we sell or share it with third parties. All Google-related data is encrypted both in transit and at rest, and protected using industry-standard security protocols. You may disconnect your Google account at any time by updating your account settings within the Frizzle platform.
6. Data Sharing
We do not sell or share student information. We may share data only with trusted subprocessors under contract to help deliver our services, and only with school approval.
7. Security and Data Retention
We use industry-standard security practices to safeguard data. Student data is retained only as long as needed for educational purposes and deleted upon school request or contract termination.
8. Rights and Choices
Schools, educators, and parents may access, correct, or request deletion of data. Requests should be sent to support@frizzle.com.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy and will notify schools and users when material changes occur.
