Privacy Policy

LearnFizz has been created to allow users to collect and share the best learning resources on the web. LearnFizz knows that you care about how your personal information is used and shared, and we take your privacy very seriously. Please read the following to learn more about our privacy policy. By visiting the LearnFizz website, you are accepting the practices outlined in this Privacy Policy.

This Privacy Policy covers LearnFizz's treatment of personal information that LearnFizz gathers when you are on the LearnFizz website and when you use LearnFizz services. This policy does not apply to the practices of third parties that LearnFizz does not own or control, or to individuals that LearnFizz does not employ or manage.

Information Collected by LearnFizz

We only collect personal information that is relevant to the purpose of our website, which is to enable users to discover and share web –based learning resources with each other. We do not process this information in a way that is incompatible with this objective. We collect the following types of information from our LearnFizz users:

1. Information You Provide to Us:
   
   Registration: In order for you to use LearnFizz services, such as adding links/mixes/academies, or rating and commenting on other users content, you must complete a registration form. As part of this registration form, we require select personal information (e-mail address and password). In the future, other information may be required as and when the features of the site develop. We will let our users know when this is the case.
   
   User Profile: To allow you to express yourself beyond just the information collected during registration, we enable you to provide additional information, such as a bio, profile photographs, work information and Twitter profile. You can control what and how your information is displayed and used.

2. Automatic Information:
   We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. LearnFizz and its authorized agents automatically receive and record certain "traffic data" on their server logs from your browser including your IP address and the page you requested. LearnFizz uses this traffic data to help diagnose problems with its servers, analyse trends and administer the website.

Cookies

• Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer's hard drive through your Web browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser and tell us how and when pages in our website are visited and by how many people. Digg cookies do not collect personal information, and we do not combine information collected through cookies with other personal information to tell us who you are or what your screen name or e-mail address is.
  
  
• The "help" portion of the toolbar on the majority of browsers will direct you on how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to command the browser to tell you when you receive a new cookie, or how to fully disable cookies. We recommend that you leave the cookies activated because cookies allow you to use some of Digg's coolest features.
  
  
• Some of our business partners, like our advertisers, may use cookies on our website. We have no access to, or control over, these cookies.

E-mail Communications

LearnFizz is very concerned about your privacy and we will never provide your email address to a third party without your explicit permission. LearnFizz may send out e-mails with LearnFizz-related news, products, offers, surveys or promotions. In the future you may also receive notification e-mails from LearnFizz, which inform you of actions that have been performed on the site (mix comments, users now following you etc.). When these new features are developed, we will always give you the option to opt in or out of email notifications.

Keeping Information Secure

• Your LearnFizz account information is protected by a password for your privacy and security. Protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer by logging off once you have finished using a shared computer.
  
  
• Only employees who need personal information to perform a specific job (for example, a customer service representative) are granted access to it. All of our employees are kept up to date on our privacy and security practices.

Ways to Control Display and Use of Your Information

• As stated previously, you can always opt not to disclose information, but then you may be unable to use certain upcoming features on our website.
  
  
• By visiting your User Profile, you can correct, amend, add or delete personal information on our website.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

LearnFizz may amend this Privacy Policy from time to time, at its sole discretion. Use of information we collect now is subject to the Privacy Policy in effect at the time such information is used. If we make changes to the Privacy Policy, we will notify you by posting an announcement on the LearnFizz website so you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances if any, it is disclosed.

Effective Date of this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy is effective as of November 1, 2011.
