Information Collection and Use
When using the Nearpod platform, users may provide personally identifiable information like their name, address, contact details, and school information.

This information helps Renaissance in effectively communicating with users, providing personalized content, monitoring website usage, and improving their services.

Policy on Children's Personally Identifiable Information
In compliance with regulations, Nearpod does not solicit or knowingly collect personally identifiable information from individuals under the age of 13. Children are advised not to provide any such information on the platform. By prioritizing user privacy and security, Nearpod mitigates risks associated with handling children's personally identifiable information.
Do Not Track and Third-Party Services
Users have the option to enable a 'Do Not Track' feature to limit information collection for tailored content. Nearpod may utilize third-party service providers to analyze website usage, but they do not permit the collection of personally identifiable information by external parties without user consent. This ensures a secure and transparent online experience for Nearpod users.
