We reserve the right to modify this Agreement at any time. We’ll do our best to provide you notice by posting a notice or through email when we make a material change to the Services that would adversely affect you, but this isn’t always practical. If you don’t agree with the new terms, you may reject them but you will no longer be able to use the Services. Your use of the Services in any way following such notification constitutes your acceptance of the terms and conditions as modified. We may suspend or discontinue any part of the Services, or we may introduce new features or impose limits on certain features or restrict access to parts or all of the Services, at any time.
You represent and warrant to Snap Homework that:
You are at least 18 years old (or, if you are not at least 18 years old, you have your parent’s permission to use the Services, and your parent has read and agrees to this Agreement on your behalf);
All registration information you submit is accurate and truthful;
You will maintain the accuracy of such information;
If you’re agreeing to this Agreement on behalf of an organization or entity, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to agree to this Agreement on that organization or entity’s behalf and bind them to this Agreement (in which case, the references to “you” and “your” in these Terms, except for in this sentence, refer to that organization or entity). You also certify that you are legally permitted to use and access the Services and take full responsibility for the selection and use of and access to the Services. This Agreement is void where prohibited by law, and the right to access the Services is revoked in such jurisdictions.
USE BY CHILDREN
The Children’s Online Privacy and Protection Act (“COPPA”) requires that online service providers obtain parental consent or provide notice before they knowingly collect personally identifiable information online from children who are under 13. We do not knowingly collect or solicit personally identifiable information from a child under 13, except in the following circumstances:
We may collect a child’s name, email address or telephone number, and the child’s parent’s email address in order to provide notice to parents that we may contact their child for the purpose of providing the Services that their teacher has signed up for.
We may collect personal information from a child under 13 where that student’s school, district, and/or teacher has agreed to obtain parental consent for that child to use the Services and disclose personal information to us, for the use and benefit of the learning environment.
If you are a school, district, or teacher, you represent and warrant that you are solely responsible for complying with COPPA. If you are a teacher, you represent and warrant that you have permission and authorization from your school and/or district to use the Services, and for purposes of COPPA compliance, you represent and warrant that you are entering into these Terms on behalf of your school and/or district.
If we learn we have collected personal information from a student under 13 other than pursuant to the above, or if we learn a student under 13 has provided us personal information beyond what we request from him or her, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that a student under 13 may have provided us personal information in violation of this paragraph, please contact us at support@snaphomework.me.
FEES AND PAYMENT
Access to and use of the Services itself is free, but in the future, we may offer new or additional features which Snap Homework may charge for. Therefore, we reserve the right to require payment of fees for certain Services. If you want access to those Services, you will pay all applicable fees for those Services, as will be described on the Services. If you continue to use those Services following such notification, that use constitutes your acceptance of any new or increased charges.
Note that, by using the Services, you may receive e-mail or text messages on your phone or mobile device, which may cause you to incur usage charges or other fees or costs in accordance with your wireless or data service plan. Any and all such charges, fees, or costs are your sole responsibility. You should consult with your wireless carrier to determine what rates, charges, fees, or costs may apply to your use of the Services.
REFUND AND CANCELLATION
A user of our service shall have the right to cancel school fee payment executed through us within 24hrs from the time of completing the transaction. Any transaction subsequently rolled back will be subject to a banking and transactional charge of 3%. Credit will be issued through the same mode of payment used at the time of school fee payment, within 7 business days.
Cancellation of the transaction can be effected by service of the Cancellation Notice and delivered by email to cancel@snaphomework.me
ADDITIONAL TERMS
This Agreement applies to all users of our Services, but there are special terms for a teacher who organizes a “class” or “group” of members, as an Organizer. If you are, for example, a student, teammate or parent who is invited to be a member of a class or group by an Organizer, you are a Subscriber. In certain cases, Subscribers may be allowed to invite new members to a “class group” to become Subscribers. You may not sign up for or use the Snap Homework Services as someone you are not; we may disable or terminate your account if you do so.
If you are a Subscriber (such as a student, parent, or other individual invited to join a class or group by an Organizer):
You must get your parent or guardian to read and agree to this Agreement before using the Services if you are under 18.
You will only join classes and/or groups that you have been invited to, or based on your school, class or group affiliation, to which you are a part of.
If you are accessing the Services as an Organizer and inviting users to join as Subscribers:
The Services may allow you to invite users to join your group(s) and/or to add users to your group(s). If you invite other users to join your group, you represent and warrant to us that you have obtained consent from each person including receiving messages from Snap Homework.
Organizers can invite members by distributing “a PIN Number” generated by Snap Homework and communicate with Subscribers. You may only share this PIN with Subscribers whom you wish to subscribe to your group.
Organizers are responsible for and must maintain and monitor Subscriber lists in order to help ensure accurate representation of the Subscribers in your group.
FERPA
Certain information directly related to a student and which may be considered an education record (“Education Record”) under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (“FERPA”), may be provided to Snap Homework by teachers, teacher aides, or other school administrators or officials at an Institution. Additionally, certain information, provided to Snap Homework, such as student name and grade level, may be considered directory information under FERPA (“Directory Information”) and thus not an Education Record.
To disclose eligible student education records, a school is generally required to have written consent of the parent and/or eligible student or meet one of the exceptions set forth in FERPA including the exemption for Directory Information (“Directory Information Exemption”) or disclosure to school officials with a legitimate educational interest (“School Administrator / Official Exemption”).
As a School Official or Institution providing Directory Information or any Education Record to Snap Homework, you represent, warrant and covenant to Snap Homework, as applicable, that your Institution has:
(i) complied with the Directory Information Exemption, including, without limitation, informing parents and eligible students what information the Institution deems to be directory information and allowing parents and eligible students a reasonable amount of time to request that schools not disclose directory information about them; and/or
(ii) complied with the School Official / Administrator Exemption, including, without limitation, informing parents in their annual notification of FERPA rights that the Institution defines “school administrator / official” to include service providers and defines “legitimate educational interest” to include services such as the type provided by Snap Homework; or
(iii) obtained all necessary parental or eligible student written consent to share the Directory Information and Educational Records with Snap Homework, in each case, solely to enable Snap Homework’s operation of the Service.
Snap Homework will never share Education Records with third parties except (i) as directed by a Snap Homework user (e.g., a teacher referring another teacher or having parent subscribe to the application); or (ii) to third party providers that are necessary for us to provide the Service.
REGISTRATION AND SECURITY
As a condition to using the Product and Services, you may be required to register with Snap Homework by selecting a user id, password and providing your name and a valid email address. You will provide Snap Homework with accurate, complete, and updated registration information.
You may not
Select or use the name or email of another person with the intent to impersonate that person; or
Use a name subject to any rights of any person other than you without appropriate authorization.
Snap Homework reserves the right to refuse registration of or cancel an account in its sole discretion. You will be responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password. You may not transfer your account to anyone. Violation of any of the foregoing may result in immediate termination of your account, revocation of your ability to use the Product and Services, and may subject you to state and federal penalties and other legal consequences. Snap Homework reserves the right, but will have no obligation, to investigate your use of the Product and Services in order to determine whether a violation of the Agreement has occurred or to comply with any applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request.
CONSENT TO RECEIVE PERIODIC MESSAGES FROM SNAP HOMEWORK
As part of the Services, Snap Homework may send communications (such as text messages, emails, and push notifications) to Subscribers of a class group. For example, upon adding a new Subscriber to a class group, such new Subscriber will receive a welcome message. Snap Homework may send other administrative messages as well. BY SIGNING UP FOR THE SERVICES, YOU AGREE TO RECEIVE COMMUNICATIONS FROM SNAP HOMEWORK, AND YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT EACH USER YOU INVITE AND/OR ADD TO A GROUP HAS CONSENTED TO RECEIVE COMMUNICATIONS FROM SNAP HOMEWORK AS WELL AS FROM YOU. You agree to indemnify and hold SNAP HOMEWORK harmless for and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages (actual and consequential), losses and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) arising from or in any way related to your breach of the foregoing.
