Protecting your privacy (or the privacy of your authorized child) is really important to After-School Film School, LLC (“ASFS,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). With this in mind, we’re providing this Privacy Policy to explain our practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information that we receive through our AFTER-SCHOOL FILM SCHOOL™, an online service, consisting of both free and paid content (the “Service”). This Privacy Policy does not apply to any third party websites, services, or applications, even if they are accessible through our Service.

THE SERVICE IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE BY ANYONE UNDER THE AGE OF 13. IF YOU ARE UNDER THE AGE OF 13, YOU MAY NOT USE THE SERVICE OR PROVIDE ASFS WITH ANY PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION. If you are 13 or older but under the age of 18, you represent that you have reviewed this Privacy Policy with your parent or legal guardian and that you and your parent or guardian understand and consent to this Privacy Policy. If you are a parent or guardian permitting a person under the age of 18 (“Minor”) to use the Service, you agree to: (i) supervise the Minor’s use of the Service; (ii) assume all risks associated with the Minor’s use of the Service, including the transmission of content to and from third parties via the Internet; (iii) assume any liability resulting from the Minor’s use of the Service; (iv) ensure the accuracy and truthfulness of all information submitted by the Minor; and (v) assume responsibility and are bound by this Agreement for the Minor’s access and use of the Service.

1. REVISIONS TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

ANY INFORMATION THAT IS COLLECTED VIA OUR SERVICE IS COVERED BY THE PRIVACY POLICY IN EFFECT AT THE TIME SUCH INFORMATION IS COLLECTED. WE MAY REVISE THIS PRIVACY POLICY FROM TIME TO TIME. IF WE MAKE ANY MATERIAL CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY, INCLUDING ANY CHANGE THAT WE PROPOSE THAT WILL HAVE RETROACTIVE EFFECT, WE’LL NOTIFY YOU OF THOSE CHANGES BY POSTING THEM ON THE SERVICE OR BY SENDING YOU AN EMAIL OR OTHER NOTIFICATION, AND WE’LL UPDATE THE “LAST UPDATED DATE” ABOVE TO INDICATE WHEN THOSE CHANGES WERE MADE.

2. COLLECTION & USE OF INFORMATION

a. Information Collected or Received from You (or Your Authorized Child)

Our primary goals in collecting information are to provide and improve our Service, to administer your (or your authorized child’s) use of the Service, and to enable you (or your authorized child) to enjoy and easily navigate our Service.

When you (or your authorized child) register to create an account with us (“Account”), we’ll collect certain information that can be used to identify or recognize you (or your authorized child) (“PII”).

Registering an Account will require you to submit an email address and the first name of the student who will access the Service. You must also confirm that the student who will access the Service is at least 13 years old. This information will be shared with us.

b. Information Collected Using Cookies and other Web Technologies

Like many website owners and operators, we use automated data collection tools such as Cookies and Web Beacons to collect certain information on our Site.

“Cookies” are small text files that are placed on your hard drive by a Web server when you (or your authorized child) access our Service. We may use both session Cookies and persistent Cookies to identify that you (or your authorized child) have logged in to the Service and to tell us how and when you (or your authorized child) interact with our Service. We may also use Cookies to monitor aggregate usage and web traffic routing on our Service and to customize and improve our Service. Session Cookies are deleted when you (or your authorized child) log off from the Service and close the browser. Persistent Cookies remain on your computer and will identify how you use the Service over time. Although most browsers automatically accept Cookies, you can change your browser options to stop automatically accepting Cookies or to prompt you before accepting Cookies. Please note, however, that if you don’t accept Cookies, you (or your authorized child) may not be able to access all portions or features of the Service. Some third party Service providers that we engage (including third party advertisers) may also place their own Cookies on your hard drive.

“Web Beacons” (also known as web bugs, pixel tags, or clear GIFs) are tiny graphics with a unique identifier that may be included on our Service for several purposes. For example, we may use Web Beacons to deliver or communicate with Cookies, to track and measure the performance of our Service, to monitor how many visitors view our Service, and to monitor the effectiveness of our advertising. Unlike Cookies, which are stored on the user’s hard drive, Web Beacons are typically embedded invisibly on web pages (or in an e-mail).

c. Information Related to Use of the Service

Our servers automatically record certain information about how a person uses our Service (we refer to this information as “Log Data”), including both Account holders and non-Account holders (either, a “User”). Log Data may include information such as a User’s Internet Protocol (IP) address, user agent, browser type, operating system, the web page that a User was visiting before accessing our Service, the pages or features of our Service to which a User browsed and the time spent on those pages or features, search terms, the links on our Service that a User clicked on, and other statistics. We use Log Data to administer the Service and we analyze (and may engage third parties to analyze) Log Data to improve, customize, and enhance our Service by expanding their features and functionality and tailoring them to our Users’ needs and preferences. We may use a person’s Log Data and other information to generate aggregate, non- identifying information about how our Service is used and use such aggregated information to understand and improve our Service and to administer use of the Service.

d. Information Sent by Your Mobile Device

We collect certain information that your (or your authorized child’s) mobile device sends when you (or your authorized child) use our Service, like a device identifier, user settings, and the operating system of your (or your authorized child’s) device, as well as information about your use of our Service while using the mobile device. We may use this information to provide the Service and to improve and personalize our Service for you (or your authorized child).

3. INFORMATION THAT WE SHARE WITH THIRD PARTIES

We will not share any of your (or your authorized child’s) PII that we have collected from or regarding you (or your authorized child) except as described below:

a. Information Shared with Our Service Providers

We may engage third party service providers to work with us to administer and provide the Service. These third party service providers have access to your (or your authorized child’s) PII only for the purpose of performing services on our behalf and are expressly obligated to secure your (or your authorized child’s) PII and not to disclose or use your (or your authorized child’s) PII for any other purpose.

b. Information Shared with Third Parties

We may share aggregated information and non-identifying information with third parties for research and analysis, demographic profiling, and other similar purposes. This information will not include your (or your authorized child’s) PII.

c. Information Disclosed in Connection with Business Transactions

Information that we collect from our users, including PII, is considered to be a business asset. Thus, if we are acquired by a third party as a result of a transaction such as a merger, acquisition, or asset sale or if our assets are acquired by a third party in the event we go out of business or enter bankruptcy, some or all of our assets, including your (or your authorized child’s) PII, may be disclosed or transferred to a third party acquirer in connection with the transaction. In the event of such a transaction, we will give you notice of the transaction and the opportunity for a period of 30 days to refuse disclosure or transfer of your (or your authorized child’s) PII to the third party acquirer in connection with the transaction.

d. Information Disclosed for Our Protection and the Protection of Others

We cooperate with government and law enforcement officials or private parties to enforce and comply with the law. We may disclose any information about you (or your authorized child) that is in our possession or control to government or law enforcement officials or private parties as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate: (a) to respond to claims, legal process (including subpoenas); (b) to protect our property, rights, and safety and the property, rights, and safety of a third party or the public in general; and (c) to identify and stop any activity that we consider illegal, unethical, or legally actionable activity.

4. YOUR CHOICES

We offer you choices regarding the collection, use, and sharing of your (or your authorized child’s) PII and we’ll respect the choices you make. Please note that if you decide not to provide us with the PII that we request, you (or your authorized child) may not be able to access some or all of the features of the Service.

a. Rescinding Your Consent

You have the right to refuse further collection, use, and/or disclosure of your (or your authorized child’s) PII by notifying us.

We will promptly discontinue your (or your authorized child’s) access to and use of the Service and ensure that your (or your authorized child’s) PII is no longer publicly accessible through the Service. Please note, however, that if you refuse further collection, use, and/or disclosure of your (or your authorized child’s) PII, you may not be able to access and use all or a portion of the Service.

For Parents of authorized children, if you elect to subscribe to our mailing list (or elect to subscribe your authorized child to our mailing list) during Account registration, we will periodically send you (or your authorized child) free newsletters and e-mails that directly promote our Service. For all other users, if you do not opt out of subscription to our mailing list (or opt out of subscription for your authorized child to our mailing list) during Account registration, we will periodically send you (or your authorized child) free newsletters and e-mails that directly promote our Service.
