Anonymous data collected through this website

In addition to the information, we collect as described above, we use technology to collect anonymous information about the use of our website.

This technology does not identify you personally, it simply enables us to compile statistics about our visitors and their use of our website.

Our website contains hyperlinks to other pages on our website. We may use technology to track how often these links are used and which pages on our website our visitors choose to view. Again, this technology does not identify you personally ā€“ it simply enables us to compile statistics about the use of these hyperlinks.

Links to other websites

This website may contain hyperlinks to websites that are not operated by us. These hyperlinks are provided for your reference and convenience only and do not imply any endorsement of the activities of these third-party websites or any association with their operators.

Protection of your personal data

All Learnexus personnel accessing personal information must comply with the internal rules and processes in relation to the processing of personal data to protect them and ensure the confidentiality of such information.

We have also implemented adequate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data against unauthorized, accidental, or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, misuse, disclosure or access and against all other unlawful forms of processing. These security measures have been implemented taking into account the state of the art of the technology, their cost of implementation, the risks presented by the processing and the nature of the personal information, with particular care for sensitive information.

Although we use appropriate security measures once we have received your personal data, the transmission of data over the internet (including by e-mail) is never completely secure. We endeavor to protect personal data, but we cannot guarantee the security of data transmitted to us or by us.

6.1 Access to Specific Information and Data Portability Rights.

You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will disclose to you:

Ā· disclosures for a business purpose, identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient obtained.

We do not provide these access and data portability rights for B2B personal information.

6.2 Deletion Request Rights.

You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies.

We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:

a. Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, fulfill the terms of a written warranty or product recall conducted in accordance with federal law, or otherwise perform our contract with you;

b. Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities;

c. Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality;

d. Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law;

e. Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code Ā§ 1546 et. seq.);

f. Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the informationā€™s deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the researchā€™s achievement, if you previously provided informed consent.

g. Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us;

h. Comply with a legal obligation; and/or

i. Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

We do not provide these deletion rights for B2B personal information.

6.3 Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights.

To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by either:

Ā· Emailing us at [email protected] , or

Ā· Visiting https://learnexus.com.

Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.

You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative, which may include:

Ā· Name, contact information, and information related to your transaction or relationship with the Company, but the specific information requested may differ depending on the circumstances of your request for your security and to protect privacy rights, and 

Ā· Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you.

Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. However, we do consider requests made through your password-protected account sufficiently verified when the request relates to personal information associated with that specific account.

We will only use the personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestorā€™s identity or authority to make the request.

6.4 Response Timing and Format.

We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five (45) days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 45 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.

If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option.

Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer requestā€™s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

6.5 Personal Information Sales Opt-out and Opt-In Rights.

If you are 16 years of age or older, you have the right to direct us to not sell your personal information at any time (the ā€œright to opt-outā€). We do not sell the personal information of consumers we actually know are less than 16 years of age, unless we receive affirmative authorization (the ā€œright to opt-inā€) from either the consumer who is at least 13 but not yet 16 years of age, or the parent or guardian of a consumer less than 13 years of age. Consumers who opt-in to personal information sales may opt-out of future sales at any time. 

7. Non-Discrimination.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not:

Ā· Deny you goods or services;

Ā· Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties;

Ā· Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services; and

Ā· Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.

However, we may offer you certain financial incentives permitted by the CCPA that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. Any CCPA-permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your personal informationā€™s value and contain written terms that describe the programā€™s material aspects. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt-in consent, which you may revoke at any time.

8. Other California Privacy Rights.

Californiaā€™s ā€œShine the Lightā€ law (Civil Code Section Ā§ 1798.83) permits users of our Website that are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an email to [email protected].
