Account Verification. You can join your school by: (1) submitting a request to add your school to our platform, (2) signing up for a parent or a teacher account once your school has been added (3) other methods we may develop over time.

If you request to create an account on Task-a-Thon, we retain your request information indefinitely and use it to provide the requested notification and assist with your verification. If you change your mind about wanting to be notified, please contact us.

Profile Information. We allow you to create a personal profile and submit information such as your email, first and last name and your association to your school. Under My Schools screen, your email address, first name and last name are visible only to other verified users at your school. We never collect information on children or their grade affiliation.

Data Modification/Deletion. You can delete your account by contacting us. Alternatively, you can delete most types of individual content items. Deleting your account will delete all content you provided, except that we may choose to retain content incorporated into conversations (and, as applicable, task, discussions); and we may attribute that content to your name even after you depart. If you are the subject of an unauthorized profile, please contact us.

Email Subscriptions. We will alert you of various activities within your school or district via email.

Contractors/Service Providers. Third party contractors may have access to our databases. These contractors sign a standard confidentiality agreement.

Government Relations and Lawsuits. We may disclose data about you to the government if we are required to do so or as we think is prudent for safety or security reasons; and you authorize us to make these disclosures. We may also disclose data about you in connection with actual or potential legal proceedings (a) in response to judicial or other government subpoenas, warrants or orders, (b) if we are required to do so in other ways, (c) if such disclosures might mitigate our liability, or (d) to enforce our rights.
