If you are a student, please do not send any personal information about yourself to us, other than what we request from you when you sign up for the Services. In the event that we learn that we have collected personal information from a student without parental consent being obtained by his or her school, district, and/or teacher, or if we learn a student has provided us personal information beyond what we request when he or she signs up for the Website, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that a student may have provided us personal information beyond what is requested when signing up for the Website, or that a student's school, district, or teacher has not required parental consent prior to our collection of any personal information, please contact us at info@edmodo.com.

Products and services purchased or offered (whether or not following such recommendations and suggestions) the Services are provided "AS IS" without any warranty of any kind from Edmodo or others unless, with respect to others (only), otherwise made expressly and unambiguously in writing by a designated third party for a specific product. THE SERVICES, CONTENT, WEBSITE AND ANY SOFTWARE ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR THAT USE OF THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

As a condition to using Services, you may be required to register with Edmodo and select a password and user name ("Edmodo User ID"), or you may be permitted to register a school “subdomain” within the Website (“Edmodo Subdomain”). You shall provide Edmodo with accurate, complete, and updated registration information. Failure to do so shall constitute a breach of this Agreement, which may result in immediate termination of your account and/or all accounts associated with your Edmodo Subdomain. You may not select or use as a Edmodo User ID a name of another person with the intent to impersonate that person or use as an Edmodo User ID a name subject to any rights of a person other than you without appropriate authorization, nor may you select or use an Edmodo Subdomain that you do not have the right and authorization to use. Edmodo reserves the right to refuse registration of or cancel an Edmodo User ID or Edmodo Subdomain in its discretion. You shall be responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password.

10. INDEMNITY

You will indemnify and hold Edmodo, its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, and employees harmless (including, without limitation, from all damages, liabilities, settlements, costs and attorneys' fees) from any claim or demand made by any third party due to or arising out of your access to the Services, use of the Services, your violation of this Agreement, or the infringement by you or any third party using your account of any intellectual property or other right of any person or entity.

11. FEES AND PAYMENT; EDMODO STORE CREDIT

  1. Access to the basic Service is free, but you may be required to pay for certain special features or premium Content, including without limitation Third Party Software.
  2. Purchasing Edmodo Store Credit
    1. You may purchase credit for a particular school or district (a “Recipient”), which Recipient may redeem for Third Party Software available on the Edmodo Store (the “Store”) (such Edmodo Store credit, “Credit”). A Recipient of Credit must be a registered user of the Services. Credit is available in a variety of denominations.
    2. When you purchase Credit, you will be asked to designate the Recipient. You may also indicate, if you would like, a nonbinding preference for Recipient to allot such Credit to a particular teacher employed by Recipient. While Edmodo will use reasonable efforts to note your preference to the Recipient, please be aware that the Recipient has ultimate control over which of its employees and contractors use any Credit and how it is used. For example, even if a Recipient allots Credit to a particular teacher who then changes schools or grade levels, a school might not transfer the Credit to the teacher’s new classroom (even if the new classroom is in the same school or in a different school in the same district, depending on the policies of the Recipient).
    3. All amounts paid for Credit are non-refundable.
    4. Notwithstanding anything else, if you are a teacher, you may purchase Credit for your own personal use on the Store ("Personal Credit"). Personal Credit will be controlled by you, and not by your school or district. Personal Credit will be stored in your Edmodo account, and may be redeemed at your discretion in accordance with the terms and conditions herein. For all other purposes of this Agreement, the term "Credit" shall include "Personal Credit."
  3. Redeeming Credit
    1. If you are a Recipient, or if you are a teacher with Personal Credit, you may redeem your Credit for Third Party Software through the Store. A Recipient may also allow the teachers that it employs and/or manages to redeem Credit on its behalf. All Credit redemptions are final, and no Credit will be returned to you after redemption, for any reason. You understand and agree that the Publisher determines how much Credit you must redeem in exchange for the Third Party Software that Publisher offers. Publisher many change those amounts at any time.
    2. Third Party Software is offered by third party publishers (“Publishers”); though Edmodo will manage the Credit redemption process, Edmodo has no responsibility for Third Party Software. You will be required to agree to an end user license agreement with each Publisher from whom you receive Third Party Software, and such terms will govern the relationship between you and the Publisher.
    3. If you are an individual, you understand that, except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section 11(b)(iv), any policies and restrictions regarding your use of Credits are determined in Recipient’s sole discretion. For example, if a Recipient has allotted Credit to you, it may reverse that allotment at its discretion.
    4. Credit is a contractual right only; it is not cash or a cash equivalent and cannot be redeemed for cash or cash equivalents. An individual may not transfer Credit to another individual unless expressly allowed by the Recipient for whom the Credit was purchased, and then only in accordance with applicable law. Recipients may not transfer Credit to other Recipients.
    5. If you have not redeemed Credit for a certain period of time after it was purchased, applicable law may require Edmodo to remit the amount paid for such Credit to the state in which the purchasing user or the Recipient was or is located. Accordingly, please be advised that you should use your Credit in a timely manner.

12. THIRD PARTY WEBSITES AND SERVICES

The Services may contain links or connections to third party websites or services that are not owned or controlled by Edmodo. When you access third party websites or use third party services (including, without limitation, your use of Third Party Software), you do so at your own risk. Edmodo encourages you to be aware when you leave the Website and to read the terms and conditions and privacy policy of each third party website or service that you visit or utilize. Edmodo has no control over, and assumes no responsibility for, the content, accuracy, privacy policies, or practices of or opinions expressed in any third party websites or by any third party that you interact with through the Services. In addition, Edmodo will not and cannot monitor, verify, censor or edit the content of any third party site or service (including without limitation the Third Party Software). By using the Services, you expressly relieve and hold harmless Edmodo from any and all liability arising from your use of any third party website or service. Your interactions with organizations and/or individuals found on or through the Services, including payment and delivery of goods or services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such dealings, are solely between you and such organizations and/or individuals. You should make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any online or offline transaction with any of these third parties (including without limitation Publishers). You agree that Edmodo shall not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as the result of any such dealings. If there is a dispute between participants on this site, or between users and any third party, you understand and agree that Edmodo is under no obligation to become involved. In the event that you have a dispute with one or more other users, you hereby release Edmodo, its officers, employees, agents, and successors in rights from claims, demands, and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind or nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed, arising out of or in any way related to such disputes and/or our service. If you are a California resident, you shall and hereby do waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor."

13. TERMINATION

This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect while you use the Services. You may terminate your use of the Services or your account at any time by contacting us at info@edmodo.com. Edmodo may suspend or terminate your access to the Services, Website or your account at any time, for any reason (without cause or for your violation of any term of this Agreement), and without warning or notice, which may result in the forfeiture and destruction of all information associated with your membership. Upon termination of your account, your right to use the Services, access the Website, and any Content will immediately cease. All provisions of this Agreement which, by their nature, should survive termination, shall survive termination, including, without limitation, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, and limitations of liability.

14. MISCELLANEOUS

The failure of either party to exercise, in any respect, any right provided for herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder. Edmodo shall not be liable for any failure to perform its obligations hereunder where such failure results from any cause beyond Edmodo's reasonable control, including, without limitation, mechanical, electronic or communications failure or degradation (including "line-noise" interference). If any provision of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. This Agreement is not assignable, transferable or sublicensable by you except with Edmodo's prior written consent. Edmodo may transfer, assign or delegate this Agreement and its rights and obligations without consent. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard to the conflict of laws provisions thereof. Any dispute arising from or relating to the subject matter of this Agreement shall be finally settled by arbitration in Santa Clara County, California, using the English language in accordance with the Arbitration Rules and Procedures of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. ("JAMS") then in effect, by one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving intellectual property and commercial contract disputes, who shall be selected from the appropriate list of JAMS arbitrators in accordance with the Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS. Judgment upon the award so rendered may be entered in a court having jurisdiction, or application may be made to such court for judicial acceptance of any award and an order of enforcement, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party shall have the right to institute an action in a court of proper jurisdiction for injunctive or other equitable relief pending a final decision by the arbitrator. For all purposes of this Agreement, the parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the United States Federal Courts located in the Northern District of California. Both parties agree that this Agreement is the complete and exclusive statement of the mutual understanding of the parties and supersedes and cancels all previous written and oral agreements, communications and other understandings relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, and that all modifications must be in a writing signed by both parties, except as otherwise provided herein. This Agreement and any subsequent versions of this Agreement posted to the Website will be deemed a writing signed by both parties. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment is created as a result of this Agreement and you do not have any authority of any kind to bind Edmodo in any respect whatsoever.

It is Edmodo's policy to (1) block access to or remove material that it believes in good faith to be copyrighted material that has been illegally copied and distributed by any of our advertisers, affiliates, content providers, members or users; and (2) remove and discontinue service to repeat offenders.

  1. Procedure for Reporting Copyright Infringements:
    If you believe that material or content residing on or accessible through the Services infringes a copyright, please send a notice of copyright infringement containing the following information to the Designated Agent listed below:
    1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright that has been allegedly infringed;
    2. Identification of works or materials being infringed;
    3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing including information regarding the location of the infringing materials that the copyright owner seeks to have removed, with sufficient detail so that Edmodo is capable of finding and verifying its existence;
    4. Contact information about the notifier including address, telephone number and, if available, email address;
    5. A statement that the notifier has a good faith belief that the material identified in (3) is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
    6. A statement made under penalty of perjury that the information provided is accurate and the notifying party is authorized to make the complaint on behalf of the copyright owner.
  2. Once Proper Bona Fide Infringement Notification is Received by the Designated Agent:
    It is Edmodo's policy:
    1. to remove or disable access to the infringing material;
    2. to notify the content provider, member or user that it has removed or disabled access to the material; and
    3. that repeat offenders will have the infringing material removed from the system and that Edmodo will terminate such content provider's, member's or user's access to the Services.
  3. Procedure to Supply a Counter-Notice to the Designated Agent:
    If the content provider, member or user believes that the material that was removed (or to which access was disabled) is not infringing, or the content provider, member or user believes that it has the right to post and use such material from the copyright owner, the copyright owner's agent, or, pursuant to the law, the content provider, member, or user, must send a counter-notice containing the following information to the Designated Agent listed below:
    1. A physical or electronic signature of the content provider, member or user;
    2. Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or disabled;
    3. A statement that the content provider, member or user has a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material; and
    4. Content provider's, member's or user's name, address, telephone number, and, if available, email address, and a statement that such person or entity consents to the jurisdiction of the Federal Court for the judicial district in which the content provider's, member's or user's address is located, or, if the content provider's, member's or user's address is located outside the United States, for any judicial district in which Edmodo is located, and that such person or entity will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement.

If a counter-notice is received by the Designated Agent, Edmodo may send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that Edmodo may replace the removed material or cease disabling it in 10 business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the content provider, member or user, the removed material may be replaced or access to it restored in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at Edmodo's discretion.
