Information Does Seesaw Collect?"). We intentionally limit our data

12. Who can view content posted in Seesaw?
Student work is private to the classroom by default. Users cannot view
a student's Journal Content or Messages in Seesaw unless they are the
teacher or school administrator or invited to Seesaw by the teacher or
school administrator. Teachers control who can access a student's
account by authorizing specific people to connect to that student's
account. Teachers decide whether families can view, like, share, or
comment on their student's work and whether students can view, like,
and comment on classmates' work. Teachers can turn on settings that
require teacher approval of student work, allowing teachers to moderate
and, when necessary, remove content shared by students before it is
posted. Teachers may also choose to publish some class content to a
public class web page managed by Seesaw. In addition to controlling
what student work is published, teachers have the option to password
protect the public class web page.
Teachers also control whether or not students or Family Members can
save Seesaw content to their device or get a link to specific Journal
Content. However, Seesaw cannot prevent all forms of sharing (e.g. by
taking a screenshot and posting to social media), so it is important
that teachers only grant access to authorized parties and discuss their
policies with families.
School administrators can access all Journal Content and Messages
shared in their Seesaw organization, including Messages that have been
edited or deleted.

U.S. Department of Commerce that it adheres to the Swiss-U.S. Data
Privacy Framework Principles ("Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles") with regard

provide services on our behalf. Seesaw remains responsible and liable
under the Principles if third-party agents that it engages to process
the personal data on its behalf do so in a manner inconsistent with the
Principles, unless Seesaw proves that it is not responsible for the
event giving rise to the damage.
Seesaw has further committed to cooperate and comply respectively with
the advice of the EU/EEA data protection authorities (collectively "EU

Terms Of Service
1. INTRODUCTION
Welcome to Seesaw!
We are Seesaw Learning, Inc. ("Seesaw", "we", "us", "our"). Seesaw's
mission is to create an environment where students can be their best.
To accomplish this goal, it is essential that our learning platform,
Seesaw, is a safe place for students to document their learning, and
that parents or guardians, teachers, and school administrators are in
control over how that information is shared.
This Terms of Service (these "Terms") governs your use of our websites
located at seesaw.me (the "Site"), and the Seesaw mobile application
(the "App"), and our learning services accessible via the Site and App,
(collectively "the Services"). Our Privacy Policy and Copyright &
Intellectual Property Policy are incorporated into these Terms.
By using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you
don't agree with these Terms, you cannot use the Services.
If you are the parent or legal guardian of a child who is under the age
when they can legally enter into a contract or grant consent to
processing of personal information, then, by using the Services, you
also accept these Terms on your child's behalf. See Section 4 ("Consent
Requirements for Children") for more information on how to obtain
consent for children to use the Services.
You can contact us anytime with questions about this policy at
privacy@seesaw.me.
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING ARBITRATION FOR U.S. CUSTOMERS: WHEN YOU
AGREE TO THESE TERMS YOU ARE AGREEING (WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION) TO
RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND SEESAW THROUGH BINDING, INDIVIDUAL
ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT. PLEASE REVIEW CAREFULLY SECTION 24
("WE BOTH AGREE TO ARBITRATE") BELOW FOR DETAILS REGARDING ARBITRATION.
2. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS
We may update the Terms from time to time at our sole discretion. If we
do, we'll let you know by posting the updated Terms on the Site, to the
App, and/or may also send other communications. It is important that
you review the Terms whenever we update them or you use the Services.
If you continue to use the Services after we have posted updated Terms
it means that you accept and agree to the changes. If you don't agree
to be bound by the changes, you may not use the Services anymore.
Because our Services are evolving over time, we may change or
discontinue all or any part of the Services, at any time and without
notice, at our sole discretion.
3. PRIVACY
Seesaw takes protecting your security and privacy seriously and we've
put a number of measures in place to protect the integrity of your
information. For more information, see our Privacy Policy. Residents of
the European Union, UK, and Switzerland may review our additional
privacy commitments pursuant to the GDPR, located at
https://web.seesaw.me/gdpr.
For Seesaw customers who are schools or school districts located in the
European Union, UK, or Switzerland, Seesaw may be subject to an
additional Data Processing Agreement between Seesaw and the applicable
customer, which imposes additional obligations on Seesaw with respect
to how we process and handle data from teachers, students and other
users associated with that school or school district. For schools or
school districts located in the European Union, UK, and Switzerland who
agree to these Terms, unless otherwise agreed in writing between Seesaw
and the applicable schools or school district, Seesaw's standard Data
Processing Agreement applies and is incorporated into these Terms
solely with respect to those schools or school districts located in the
EU, UK, or Switzerland.
4. CONSENT REQUIREMENTS FOR CHILDREN
The Children's Online Privacy and Protection Act ("COPPA") requires
that online service providers provide notice and obtain parental
consent before they knowingly collect personally identifiable
information online from children younger than 13 in the United States.
Seesaw requires teachers, schools, or districts to obtain advance
consent from parents or guardians whose children under 13 will be using
the Services.
There are a number of methods teachers, schools, or districts can use
to satisfy this requirement:
* Get consent as part of a school-wide technology consent process you
may already have in place.
* Use our sample consent form - but please note that this is an
example only and does not constitute legal advice.
* Agree to act as the parent's agent, and provide consent on their
behalf to use Seesaw solely in the educational context as provided
by the FTC. Learn More.
If you are a teacher, you represent and warrant to Seesaw that prior to
uploading any personal information of any child who is younger than 13
(or such other age as may be required under applicable law) onto the
Services, you have obtained the legally binding consent of the parent
or legal guardian of each such child. In addition, you should consult
with your school or district to ensure that you obtain proper consent
to use the Services in the classroom consistent with your school's or
district's policies. See also Section 5 ("Creating a Teacher Account or
Class") below. If you are aware that Seesaw is collecting information
from a student without parental consent, please contact us immediately
at privacy@seesaw.me.
Schools and districts located in the EU, UK, and Switzerland should
review the terms of the Data Processing Agreement for consent
requirements under the GDPR.
5. CREATING A TEACHER ACCOUNT OR CLASS
Only teachers or school administrators are permitted to create a class
on the Services. Once the class is created, teachers can invite
students, additional faculty, parents, and guardians to the class.
Teachers control who can upload, view, comment on, and share student
work and they can change these permissions at any time.
When you create a Seesaw class, you represent and warrant that:
* Any students you add to your class are current students in your
class.
* Any additional teachers you add to your class are authorized by
your school to access Student Data (as defined in Section 10
below).
* You will use Seesaw only for lawful purposes and you will abide by
applicable laws and school and school district policies.
* You will treat Seesaw as an extension of the classroom and take
reasonable steps to confirm that students are using Seesaw
appropriately.
* You will take reasonable measures to protect access to Student Data
accessible through the Services.
* You will only invite parents or guardians (collectively, "Family
Members") to view student journals and upload their contact
information only with their prior consent.
* You will protect your class QR code so that access to student
journals and class journals is limited only to invited students and
Family Members.
6. CREATING A FAMILY MEMBER ACCOUNT
Teachers can authorize Family Members to view information in their
child's journal. By using the Services, you agree that you are the
parent or legal guardian of the student and are permitted to have
contact with the student.
As a Family Member, you will only be able to access journal entries in
which your student has been tagged. Family Members of other children
may be able to access your child's work if your child is tagged in a
journal entry with their child, such as when your child collaborates
with other students on a group project.
7. CREATING A STUDENT ACCOUNT
Students may use Seesaw only if their parent or legal guardian has
given permission to their teacher or school. You agree to use the
Services only if you have been given a Join Code or have otherwise been
invited to use the Services by your teacher.
The Services are an extension of the classroom. As a Student, you agree
to use the Services in a manner that is appropriate to the classroom.
You also agree to use the Services only for lawful purposes and you
will abide by applicable laws and school and school district policies.
8. SUBMISSIONS TO THE ACTIVITY LIBRARY
Activities teachers create are private to their accounts by default.
Teachers may choose to publish activities they create to the public
Community Activity Library or an Activity Library managed by their
school or district. If you publish your activity to the Activity
Library, you agree that:
* You are the copyright holder, you have the consent of the copyright
holder, or you have a valid legal basis (for example, fair use) for
posting any content you submit to the Services.
* You have secured permission to share the personal information of
any person included in your activity.
Any activities you submit are yours - not Seesaw's. By publishing your
activity to the Community Activity Library you understand that:
* Your activity will be publicly accessible unless you choose to
remove it.
* Your name and other activities you publish to the Library will be
visible as part of your Activity Author Profile.
* For as long as your activity is published to the Library, your
activity may be shared by Seesaw (for example on our website or in
an email) and by teachers using the Services. Teachers using the
Services may also modify your activity and re-share it with their
students or other teachers.
* If you remove your activity from the Library, prior copies of your
activity or modified versions of your activity may still exist in
other teachers' accounts and will not be removed.
Student responses to activities are not shared in the Activity Library.
9. CONSENT TO RECEIVE COMMUNICATIONS
By signing up for the Services, you agree to receive communications
from Seesaw, including text (SMS), email, and/or push notifications. If
a teacher or school administrator adds a Family Member to the Services
via phone number, the Family Member will receive an SMS with
information about how to join the Services and how to opt-out of SMS
messages. Seesaw does not collect phone numbers from or send SMS
messages to students. By signing up for the Services and providing your
phone number either directly to Seesaw or to your student's school or
district, you agree to receive communications from Seesaw as well as
other Seesaw users, and you represent and warrant that every person
whose contact information you provide to us has also consented in
advance to receive communications from you and Seesaw. Seesaw is not
responsible for your receipt of, or failure to receive any messages, or
for messages sent erroneously or with incorrect information. Seesaw is
not responsible for your or someone else's action or failure to take
action due to the receipt of any messages. If you make changes to your
contact information, you are responsible for updating your Account
Settings and informing your student's school or district.
You can opt-out of notifications at any time. Text "STOP" in reply to
any SMS message from Seesaw to unsubscribe. Text "HELP" for
instructions on how to use our service. Message frequency varies.
Message and data rates may apply. You can also opt-out of notifications
in your Account Settings.
You can also opt-out of marketing communications from us at any time.
If you opt-out of marketing communications, you may still receive
communications that are necessary for the Services or otherwise exempt
from anti-spam laws. By opting out of communications from Seesaw, you
acknowledge that this may impact your use of the Services.
10. YOUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
Our Services may allow you to store or share content such as text (in
posts or communications with others), files, documents, graphics,
images, music, software, audio, and video. Anything (other than
Feedback) that you post or otherwise make available through the
Services is referred to as "User Content".
Students and their schools or districts own all Student Data added to
the Services. "Student Data" means any personal information, metadata,
or content directly attributable to a student user.
We do not claim any ownership rights to any User Content and nothing in
these Terms will be deemed to restrict any rights that you may have to
your User Content. However, in order to provide our Services, we
require certain limited rights to User Content. For example, when you
upload your User Content, we must be able to store it and serve it back
to you. Therefore, you grant Seesaw a non-exclusive, transferable,
worldwide, royalty-free license, with the right to sublicense, to use,
publish, transmit, display, copy, process, adapt, modify, publicly
perform, and distribute your User Content in connection with operating
and providing the Services, but only how you specify and only within
the context of the Services.
You are solely responsible for all your User Content. You represent and
warrant that you have (and will have) all rights that are necessary to
grant us the license rights in your User Content under these Terms. You
represent and warrant that neither your User Content, nor your use and
provision of your User Content to be made available through the
Services, nor any use of your User Content by us on or through the
Services will infringe, misappropriate or violate a third party's
intellectual property rights, or rights of publicity or privacy, or
result in the violation of any applicable law or regulation.
11. SEESAW'S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
All content on the Services that is not User Content, including but not
limited to logos, trademarks, copyrights, domain names, or other
distinctive brand features (collectively, "Seesaw Content') is
protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws
and is the exclusive property of Seesaw and its licensors. We and our
licensors grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license

infringing the rights of copyright holders. To learn more about how
Seesaw responds to allegations of copyright infringement, please review

charges). You may need to provide additional information to verify your
identity before completing your Transaction (such information is
included within the definition of Payment Information). By initiating a
Transaction, you agree to the pricing, payment, and billing policies
applicable to such fees and charges, as posted or otherwise
communicated to you. All payments for Transactions are non-refundable
and non-transferable except as expressly provided in these Terms.
b. Subscriptions. If you purchase a Subscription, you will be charged
the Subscription fee monthly or annually, depending on the type of
Subscription you have selected, plus any applicable taxes, and other
charges ("Subscription Fee"), at the beginning of your Subscription and
each month or year thereafter, depending on the type of Subscription
you have selected, at the then-current Subscription Fee. BY PURCHASING
A SUBSCRIPTION, YOU AUTHORIZE SEESAW TO INITIATE RECURRING
NON-REFUNDABLE PAYMENTS AS SET FORTH BELOW. If you purchase a
Subscription, we (or our third-party payment processor) will
automatically charge you each month or year, depending on the type of
Subscription you have selected, using the Payment Information you have
provided until you cancel your Subscription. No less than thirty (30)
days and no more than sixty (60) days before your Subscription term
ends, or otherwise in accordance with applicable law, Seesaw will send
you a reminder email regarding your Subscription. By agreeing to these
Terms and electing to purchase a Subscription, you acknowledge that
your Subscription has recurring payment features and you accept
responsibility for all recurring payment obligations prior to
cancellation of your Subscription by you or Seesaw. Your Subscription
continues until canceled by you or we terminate your access to or use
of the Services or Subscription in accordance with these Terms.
c. Canceling Your Subscription. YOUR PURCHASE IS FINAL AND YOU WILL NOT
BE ABLE TO CANCEL THE PURCHASE AND/OR RECEIVE A REFUND OF YOUR
SUBSCRIPTION FEE AT ANY TIME. But if something unexpected happens in
the course of completing a Transaction, we reserve the right to cancel
your Transaction for any reason; if we cancel your Transaction we'll
refund any payment you have already remitted to us for such
Transaction. Without limiting the foregoing, you may cancel your
Subscription at any time, but please note that such cancellation will
be effective at the end of the then-current Subscription period. YOU
WILL NOT RECEIVE A REFUND OF ANY PORTION OF THE SUBSCRIPTION FEE PAID
FOR THE THEN-CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD AT THE TIME OF CANCELLATION.
To cancel, you can send an email to AR@seesaw.me. You will be
responsible for all Subscription Fees (plus any applicable taxes and
other charges) incurred for the then-current Subscription period. If
you cancel, your right to use the Services will continue until the end
of your then-current Subscription period and will then terminate
without further charges.

JURISDICTION, IN NO EVENT SHALL SEESAW'S TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL
DAMAGES, LOSSES, OR CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO
THESE TERMS OR FROM THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES EXCEED:
(1) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID TO ACCESS THE SERVICES DURING THE TWELVE (12)
MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE DATE OF YOUR CLAIM, OR (2) ONE HUNDRED

The limitations of liability set forth in this Section are fundamental
elements of the basis of the bargain between you and us and will
survive any termination or expiration of these Terms, and will apply
even if any limited remedy specified in these Terms is found to have
failed of its essential purpose.
22. GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTES
These Terms and any action related thereto will be governed by the laws
of the State of California, without regard to its conflicts of law
provisions. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section 23
("Informal Dispute Resolution") and Section 24 ("We Both Agree to
Arbitrate") below, the exclusive jurisdiction for any and all disputes,
claims, or controversies arising out of or relating to these Terms or
the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity
thereof or the use of the Services (collectively, "Disputes") that you
and Seesaw are not required to arbitrate will be the state and federal
courts located in San Francisco County, California, and you and Seesaw
each waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue in such courts.
23. INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION
We want to address your concerns without litigation or other formal
proceedings. Before filing a claim against Seesaw, you agree to try to
resolve the Dispute informally by contacting privacy@seesaw.me and
providing us with reasonably detailed information concerning your
issue. We will try to resolve the Dispute informally by contacting you
through email. If a dispute is not resolved within 15 days after
submission, you or Seesaw may bring a formal proceeding in accordance
with these Terms.
24. WE BOTH AGREE TO ARBITRATE
This Section applies to United States users.
a. Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes. We each agree that any Disputes
will be resolved solely by binding, individual arbitration and not in a
class, representative, or consolidated action or proceeding. You and
Seesaw agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the
interpretation and enforcement of these Terms and that you and Seesaw
are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a
class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of
these Terms.
b. Exceptions. As limited exceptions to Section 24(a) above: (i) we
both may seek to resolve a Dispute in small claims court if it
qualifies; and (ii) we each retain the right to seek injunctive or
other equitable relief from a court to prevent (or enjoin) the
infringement or misappropriation of our intellectual property rights.
c. Conducting Arbitration and Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will
be conducted by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its
Consumer Arbitration Rules (the "AAA Rules") then in effect, except as
modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or
by calling 1-800-778-7879. A party who wishes to start arbitration must
submit a written Demand for Arbitration to AAA and give notice to the
other party as specified in the AAA Rules. The AAA provides a form
Demand for Arbitration at www.adr.org. Any arbitration hearings will
take place in the county (or parish) where you live unless we both
agree to a different location. The parties agree that the arbitrator
shall have exclusive authority to decide all issues relating to the
interpretation, applicability, enforceability, and scope of this
arbitration agreement.
d. Arbitration Costs. Payment of all filing, administration, and
arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules, and we won't seek to
recover the administration and arbitrator fees we are responsible for
paying unless the arbitrator finds your Dispute frivolous. If we
prevail in arbitration we'll pay all of our attorneys' fees and costs
and won't seek to recover them from you. If you prevail in arbitration
you will be entitled to an award of attorneys' fees and expenses to the
extent provided under applicable law.
e. Injunctive and Declaratory Relief. Except as provided in Section
24(b) above, the arbitrator shall determine all issues of liability on
the merits of any claim asserted by either party and may award
declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party
seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief
warranted by that party's individual claim. To the extent that you or
we prevail on a claim and seek public injunctive relief (that is,
injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of
prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the public),
the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be litigated in a
civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The
parties agree that litigation of any issues of public injunctive relief
shall be stayed pending the outcome of the merits of any individual
claims in arbitration.
f. Class Action Waiver. YOU AND SEESAW AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS
AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A
PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE
PROCEEDING. Further, if the parties' Dispute is resolved through
arbitration, the arbitrator may not consolidate another person's claims
with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a
representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found
to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 24 ("We Both
Agree to Arbitrate") shall be null and void.
g. Severability. Except as expressly stated in Section 24(f) of these
Terms ("Class Action Waiver"), if an arbitrator or court of competent
jurisdiction decides that any part of this Section 24 ("We Both Agree
to Arbitrate") is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of this
Section 24 will still apply
25. FEEDBACK
We welcome your feedback and suggestions about the Services. Please
send us a message through this form at any time. If you choose to
submit feedback, you agree that we are free to use it without any
restriction or compensation to you.
26. ENTIRE AGREEMENT
These Terms (and any other policies we refer to in this document) make
up the entire agreement between you and Seesaw Learning, Inc., and
supersede any prior agreement. If any part of these Terms are found to
be unenforceable by a court or arbitrator, the remaining parts will
remain in full force and effect. If Seesaw fails to enforce any part of
these Terms, such a failure does not constitute a waiver. Except as
expressly stated in Section 24(f) of these Terms ("Class Action
Waiver"), if any provision of these Terms is held invalid or
unenforceable by an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction,
that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and
the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and
effect. You may not assign or transfer these Terms, by operation of law
or otherwise, without Seesaw's prior written consent. Any attempt by
you to assign or transfer these Terms, without such consent, will be
null. Seesaw may freely assign or transfer these Terms without
restriction. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms will bind and inure
to the benefit of the parties, their successors, and permitted assigns.
