Creative Smarts Inc. ("CSI") is an entity that provides services (materials, events, online games, contests, and apps)(collectively the "Online Services") devoted to teachers, students and their parents (references to "parents" also means "legal guardians"). Websites under the CSI name and privacy policy include https://gregtangmath.com, https://creativesmartsinc.com, https://store.gregtangmath.com, as well as apps by "Big Hatch" on the app store. We have developed this Privacy Policy in order for you to understand how we collect, use, communicate, disclose, and make use of personal information that you provide to us on the CSI website (the "Site"). By using the Site you are consenting to our use of the information you provide as described in this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy applies to the Online Services, and does not apply to other CSI products or services. The Online Services are directed to, and intended for, residents of the United States. We are committed to respecting and protecting the privacy of users of this Website, including complying with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (“COPPA”) when applicable, as discussed in more detail below.

Children's Privacy

CSI does not condition a child’s participation in any Online Service on the disclosure of more information than is reasonably necessary to participate in the activity.

Neither CSI nor the service providers who provide support for the internal operations of the Online Services collect personal contact information (e.g., full name, email address, home address, or phone number) or any geolocation information from children under the age of 13. CSI and its service providers may collect information that is reasonably necessary to support the internal operations of the Online Services (see section below on “Cookies and Other Technologies”). In the event that we have knowledge that a child under the age of 13 has submitted any personal information to us via the Online Services, we may use the email address provided by the child for the sole purpose of responding to the child’s question or carrying out his or her request on a one-time-only basis. We will not use the email address provided by the child for any other purpose, and we will delete it from our records once the question has been answered or the request has been fulfilled. If we become aware that we have unknowingly collected personal contact information other than an email address from a child under the age of 13, we will delete the information immediately. Features on the Online Services that are open to non-registered users, such as games, worksheets, math challenge game boards, or certain materials that can be submitted to CSI, collect only non-personal information, such as a first name, grade level, school, hometown, and home state.

In the event that you believe we have inadvertently collected personal information from your child, you can review such personal information collected from your child through the Online Services, have such information deleted, and refuse to allow further collection or use of such information. Parents can agree to the collection of personal information from their child and the use of such information without agreeing to the disclosure of such information to third parties. Parents generally have a right to opt out of having personal information collected from their child disclosed to third parties. In the event that you believe we have collected personal information from your child, please contact us at the email address provided below and a CSI representative will guide you through the necessary procedures.

The Information We Collect
Registration is required in order to purchase materials from our store. As part of the registration process, you will be asked to create login credentials by providing your email address, user name, and a password. If a payment is necessary, you will be asked to provide credit card or billing information. Registration is also required to be eligible for price drawings in our math challenges. If you have submitted your child’s first name, grade, hometown, school, and home state as part of a math challenge registration, the information collected will be used to conduct the contest or sweepstakes, to notify the winner, your child’s first name, grade, hometown, school, and home state may be announced on our website. The child’s information that you provide on the registration page will not be shared with third parties for any other purpose.

We may collect certain non-personally identifiable information when you visit the Site, such as the type of browser and operating system you are using, the IP address you are using to connect to the Site, and the name of your Internet service provider.

This information will be used to improve the CSI Services and better understand our users, and any information we obtain in such surveys will not be shared with third parties, except in aggregate form.

Please be aware that personal information—such as your name or email address—that you voluntarily disclose on services such as blogs, bulletin or message boards, or in chat areas that are accessible to other users could be collected and disclosed by others. CSI cannot take any responsibility for such collection or disclosure.
