Glencoe eSolutions Programs and COPPA
In order to comply with COPPA, Glencoe eSolutions products are designed so that personal information is not collected from children under the age of 13, except for limited circumstances that are allowed under COPPA and with the consent of the parent/guardian.
To further protect the privacy of children, if students are asked to self-register, then they register using only first name and last initial. All communication between students and teachers is encrypted. In situations where files are exchanged between student and teacher, all files are secure and inadmissible to everyone, except the student and the teacher.
