Literatu Privacy Statement and
Policy
What kinds of personal information do we collect
and how?
The personal information we collect depends on your
relationship with us – whether you are a teacher, student or parent.
Base personal information we collect with your permission on
registration to our website / services / applications includes:
• your website registration and login information;
• your
nominated email address
• your current name
• your country
of domicile
Should we ever request further information to verify your account, we will only collect sensitive information from you or about you with your consent unless otherwise required or authorised by law.
When users submit information about themselves, it is assumed that
the user has granted consent to our collection of that
information. When we obtain such information from a third
party (such as through a school or institution at which you or your
child studies), we will usually enlist that third party to obtain
consent from you if that is required. Should that third party
register an account in Literatu for you, it is assumed that consent
was given.
What is our
approach to collecting personal information about children?
We collect information about students who, for example,
complete assessments at schools who use Literatu. In general, a
person over 15 years will have the capacity to make his or her own
privacy decisions.
For children who are under 15 years old, or who otherwise
cannot make these decisions for themselves, Literatu will refer or
deal with requests for access, consent and notices in relation to
personal information to the parent and/or guardian or relevant
school or institution to whom the user account is associated.
We will treat consent given by a teacher, parent and/or guardian as
consent given on behalf of the child, and notices to the relevant
school or other institution or teacher, parent and/or guardian will
act as notice given to the child.
