Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation (“legal obligation”).

We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.

Please note that we may process your personal data without your knowledge or consent, in compliance with the above rules, where this is required or permitted by law.

We may use your IP address to customize services to your location, such as the language displayed on our Sites.

Our Cookies Policy explains how we use cookies and similar technologies to collect information about the way you use our Sites, Products and Services, and how to control them.

Please note that we use IP addresses on a highly restrictive basis to analyze trends, to administer the site, and to collect general information for aggregate use.

Service Communications. We use data we collect to deliver and personalize our communications with you. For example, we may contact you by email or other means to notify you of changes in information and updates to our Sites, Products, and Services or to our Privacy Policy.

Marketing and event communication: We use personal data to deliver marketing and event communications to you across various platforms, such as email, direct mail, social media, and online via our Sites. We also may send you invitations to trade shows or trainings relating to our Products and Services that occur nearby you, based on your address.

Third parties may also market to you on our behalf based on your use of their third-party services. For example, some conference and tradeshow organizers may collect precise geo-location (latitude and longitude) data when you grant permission through your mobile device’s system settings. Once you give permission, the tradeshow organizer may use your mobile device’s GPS, Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connections to serve geo-targeted information about Boxlight, such as booth location. You should consult and review the relevant third-party privacy statement or policy for information on their data processing practices.

If we send you a marketing email, it will include instructions on how to opt out of receiving these emails in the future. For information about managing email subscriptions and promotional communications, please visit the Your Rights Regarding Personal Data section of this privacy statement. Please remember that even if you opt out of receiving marketing emails, we may still send you important service information related to your accounts and subscriptions.

Processing Payments: If you make a payment to Boxlight, we will ask for Payment Information and other information requested for processing your payment.

We use a third party payment processor, currently PayPal, to assist in securely processing your Payment Information. If you choose to use PayPal to make purchases through the Site, you will be directed to the PayPal website and provide your payment information directly to PayPal. We do not store your Payment Information and do not control and are not responsible for PayPal or its collection or use of your information. PayPal’s privacy policy applies to the information you provide on the PayPal website.

HOW WE SHARE PERSONAL DATA

It is the policy of Boxlight and its subsidiaries to protect users' information both online and off-line.

The information you provide will not be sold or rented to third parties.

We may provide your personal data to:

Boxlight-controlled affiliates and subsidiaries, located in and outside your country, including outside the European Union (EU) or European Economic Area (EEA) (in such case, we will use an appropriate legal framework to operate data transfers);
outsourced service providers who perform functions on our behalf, located inside or outside of the EU or EEA territory (in such case, we will use appropriate legal framework to operate data transfers).

comply with applicable law or respond to valid legal processes, including from law enforcement or other government agencies, upon valid and enforceable request thereof; or
operate and maintain the security of our Services, including to prevent or stop an attack on our computer systems or networks.

Please note that some of our Services may direct you to services of third parties whose privacy practices differ from Boxlight’s. If you provide personal data to any of those services, your data is governed by their privacy statements or policies. Boxlight and their subsidiaries are not responsible for the privacy practices of these other sites. Please review the privacy policies for these websites to understand how they process your information.

We require third parties to only use your personal data for the specific purpose for which it was given to us and to protect the privacy of your personal data. We will only disclose your personal data to third parties who agree to keep your information confidential.

HANDLING OF PERSONAL DATA

Security of Personal Data

Boxlight is committed to protecting the security of your personal data. Depending on the circumstances, we may hold your information in hard copy and/or electronic form. For each medium, we use technologies and procedures to protect personal data. We review our strategies and update as necessary to meet our business needs, changes in technology, and regulatory requirements.

These measures include, but are not limited to, technical and organizational security policies and procedures, security controls and employee training.

You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials for the Sites, Products, and Services. Boxlight will treat access to the Sites, Products, and Services through your account credentials as authorized by you. Unauthorized access to password-protected or secure areas is prohibited and may lead to criminal prosecution. We may suspend your use of all or part of the Services without notice if we suspect or detect any breach of security. If you believe that information you provided to us is no longer secure, please notify us immediately using the contact information provided below.

If we become aware of a breach that affects the security of your personal data, we will provide you with notice as required by applicable law. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Boxlight will provide any such notice that Boxlight must provide to you at your account’s email address. By using the Sites, Products, and Services you agree to accept notice electronically.

Storage and Transfer of Personal Data

Personal data collected by Boxlight may be stored and processed in your region, in the United States or in any other country where Boxlight, its affiliates or contractors maintain facilities, including outside the European Union or EEA. We take steps to ensure that the data we collect under this Privacy Policy is processed pursuant to the terms thereof and the requirements of applicable law wherever the data is located.

Boxlight also collaborates with third parties such as cloud hosting services and suppliers located around the world to serve the needs of our business, workforce, and customers. In some cases, we may need to disclose or transfer your personal data within Boxlight or to third parties in areas outside of your home country. When we do so, we take steps to ensure that personal data is processed, secured, and transferred according to applicable law.

If you would like to know more about our data transfer practices, please contact our Data Protection Lead at privacy@boxlight.com.

Retention of Personal Data

Boxlight retains personal data for as long as necessary to provide the services and fulfill the transactions you have requested, or for other business purposes such as complying with our legal obligations, resolving disputes, and enforcing our agreements. We are required by law to keep some types of information for certain periods of time (e.g. statute of limitations). If your personal data is no longer necessary for the legal or business purposes for which it is processed, we will generally destroy or anonymize that information.

YOUR RIGHTS REGARDING YOUR PERSONAL DATA

Boxlight respects your right to access and control your personal data. You have choices about the data we collect. When you are asked to provide personal data that is not necessary for the purposes of providing you with our Sites, Products and Services, you may decline. However, if you choose not to provide data that is necessary to provide a Service, you may not have access to certain features, Sites, Products, or Services.

We aim to keep all personal data that we hold accurate, complete and up-to-date. While we will use our best efforts to do so, we encourage you to tell us if you change your contact details. If you believe that the information we hold about you is incorrect, incomplete or out-of-date, please contact privacy@boxlight.com or call (360) 464-2119.

Access to personal data: In some jurisdictions, you have the right to request access to your personal data. In these cases, we will comply, subject to any relevant legal requirements and exemptions, including identity verification procedures. Before providing data to you, we will ask for proof of identity and sufficient information about your interaction with us so that we can locate any relevant data. We may also charge you a fee for providing you with a copy of your data (except where this is not permissible under local law).

If you are a corporate user of our Products and Services (which means your employer is a Boxlight customer of such Products and Services): please first request access to your personal data with your employer. Your employer will then be in touch with us with respect to your request.

Correction and deletion: In some jurisdictions, you have the right to correct or amend your personal data if it is inaccurate or requires updating. You may also have the right to request deletion of your personal data. Please note that such a request could be refused because your personal data is required to provide you with the products or services you requested, e.g. to deliver a product or send an invoice to your email address, or that it is required by the applicable law.

Portability: If you reside within the European Union or EEA, you have the right to ask for a copy of your personal data and/or ask for it to be ported to another provider of your choice. Please note that such a request could be limited to the only personal data you provided us with or that we hold at that given time and subject to any relevant legal requirements and exemptions, including identity verification procedures.

Marketing preferences: If you have provided us with your contact information, we may, subject to any applicable Spam Act or similar regulation, contact you via e-mail, postal mail or telephone about Boxlight products, services and events that may be of interest to you, including our newsletter.

E-mail communications you receive from Boxlight will generally provide an unsubscribe link allowing you to opt-out of receiving future e-mail or to change your contact preferences. E-mail communications may also include a link to directly update and manage your marketing preferences. Please remember that even if you opt out of receiving marketing emails, we may still send you important information related to your accounts and subscriptions.

You can request changes to your account by contacting Boxlight via email, postal mail, telephone or fax at the appropriate location found at: https://boxlight.com/contact-us/ or by emailing privacy@boxlight.com.

Please note that we do not control these Cookies. The privacy practices of these third parties will be governed by the parties’ own privacy statements or policies.

We do not link information we receive from Google with any of your personally identifiable information. For more information regarding Google’s use of cookies, and collection and use of information, see the Google Privacy Policy (available at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en).

Social Sharing

We also embed social sharing icons throughout our Sites. These sharing options are designed to enable users to easily share content from our Sites with their friends using a variety of different social networks. If you choose to connect using a social networking or similar service, we may receive and store authentication information from that service to enable you to log in and other information that you may choose to share when you connect with these services. These services may collect information such as the web pages you visited and IP addresses, and may set cookies to enable features to function properly.

You should review the privacy statements or policies applicable to the third-party services you connect to, use, or access. If you do not want your personal data shared with your social media account provider or other users of the social media service, please do not connect your social media account with your account for the Services and do not participate in social sharing on the Services.

Other Similar Technologies

Boxlight web pages may use other technologies such as web beacons to help deliver cookies on our Sites and count users who have visited those Sites. We also may include web beacons in our promotional email messages or newsletters to determine whether you open and act on them as well as for statistical purposes.

In addition to standard cookies and web beacons, our services can also use other similar technologies to store and read data files on your computer. This is typically done to maintain your preferences or to improve speed and performance by storing certain files locally.

How to Control and Delete Cookies

Cookies can be controlled, blocked or restricted through your web browser settings. Information on how to do this can be found within the Help section of your browser. All Cookies are browser specific. Therefore, if you use multiple browsers or devices to access websites, you will need to manage your cookie preferences across these environments.

If you are using a mobile device to access the Sites, you will need to refer to your instruction manual or other help/settings resource to find out how you can control cookies on your device.

Please note: If you restrict, disable or block any or all Cookies from your web browser or mobile or other device, the Sites may not operate properly, and you may not have access to our Products and Services available through the Sites. Boxlight shall not be liable for any impossibility to use the Sites, Products and Services or degraded functioning thereof, where such are caused by your settings and choices regarding cookies.

To learn more about cookies and web beacons, visit www.allaboutcookies.org.

Do Not Track: Some web browsers (including Safari, Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome) incorporate a “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) or similar feature that signals to websites that a user does not want to have his or her online activity and behavior tracked. If a website that responds to a particular DNT signal receives the DNT signal, the browser can block that website from collecting certain information about the browser’s user. Not all browsers offer a DNT option and DNT signals are not yet uniform. For this reason, many website operators, including Boxlight, do not respond to DNT signals.

PRIVACY NOTICE FOR GOOGLE INTEGRATION WITHIN BOXLIGHT ACCOUNT, MIMIOCONNECT AND OTHER APPS THAT USE BOXLIGHT ACCOUNT FOR SIGN IN (SUCH AS MYFRONTROW APP)

Boxlight account and other solutions such as MyFrontRow app, integrate with Google Classroom SSO (Single-Sign-On) for purposes of allowing teachers to sign in with their account without creating a new user name and password.

MimioConnect integrates with Google Classroom SSO (Single Sign-on) which provides benefits such as roster synchronization, and sending assignments and grades directly to Google Classroom. As part of this process, when logging in with a teacher account for the first time, MimioConnect will prompt users to agree to share specific data with the application to allow it to provide this functionality. Once agreed, MimioConnect fetches your class roster information for display within the application, and it will synchronize this information automatically every 24 hours. MimioConnect stores a copy of each student's email address to validate their login when signing in with Google Classroom SSO. The student's information (including email) will remain on our system until all teachers who have the student listed in any Google Classroom rosters have either removed the student from their class roster directly within Google Classroom, or have deleted their account on MimioConnect. At this point, the student will no longer be able to sign into MimioConnect.

MimioConnect also provides optional integration with Google Drive via the Google Drive API. This enables your Google Drive files (such as documents and multimedia) to be uploaded to our servers for use within your MimioConnect lesson. Any copies of files uploaded will remain on our servers until they are removed, or until the lesson where the files are contained is removed. Removing or editing the original Google Drive file will not affect your MimioConnect copy, and removing your MimioConnect copy will not affect your original file in Google Drive.

Restricted scopes:

https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.readonly
Description: Allows read-only access to file metadata and file content.

Sensitive scopes:

https://www.googleapis.com/auth/classroom.profile.emails
Description: View the email addresses of people in your classes

We store a student’s email address on our system when they are added to the system as a student by a teacher. Other data such as first and last names are read in and stored into web storage upon signing into the Children’s Services, and are displayed to the student and teachers on their own devices. This information is cleared when the tab or browser is closed. For students, we collect the amount of time spent on activities available through the Services, such as, the amount of time spent on each tile in the timeline. Teachers are able to access and view the time spent on activities and tiles for their students.

We collect other information when students use our service such as the amount of time students spend using the Services and the actions performed by students such as logging in and out, and the pages students visit. These are for analytical purposes used by Boxlight, teachers, and school administrators.

How We Use Your Child's Information

Student’s email addresses are added to lessons as per the student’s teacher’s requirements. Student’s email addresses will be automatically deleted from our system 12 months after the students last recorded login date.

We use the non-personal information we collect to improve the Children’s Services and to deliver a better and more personalized experience.

Our Practices for Disclosing Children's Information

We do not sell or rent children's personal information.

We may disclose aggregated information about many of our users, and information that does not identify any individual or device. In addition, we may disclose children's personal information:

To third parties we use to support the internal operations of our Children’s Services.
If we are required to do so by law or legal process, such as to comply with any court order or subpoena or to respond to any government or regulatory request.
If we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to protect the rights, property, or safety our company, our customers or others, including to:
protect the safety of a child;
protect the safety and security of the Children’s Services; or
enable us to take precautions against liability.
To law enforcement agencies or for an investigation related to public safety.

In addition, if the Company is involved in a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or transfer of some or all of the Company’s assets, whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding or event, we may transfer the personal information we have collected or maintain to the buyer or other successor.

At any time, you may review your child's personal information maintained by us, require us to correct or delete the personal information, and/or refuse to permit us from further collecting or using your child's information.
