This Privacy Notice explains how information about you is collected, used, and shared by xSEL Labs (“xSEL Labs“). This Privacy Notice applies to information we collect when you use our website and other online products and services (collectively, the “Services“). The Services allow students of various grades (collectively, “Students”) to access educational assessments, materials, and/or resources and allow schools, school districts, and/or research partners to administer and evaluate education-related assessments and testing (“Administrators”).
We will only use your Personal Information we collect through the Services in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Notice. If you do not agree with the collection, use, and/or sharing of your information by xSEL Labs as described in this Privacy Notice or any updates to it, you should not use or access the Services. Please note this Privacy Notice only governs xSEL Labs’ activities concerning your information (including Personal Information). Your Administrators may have different policies and agreements with you with respect to your information it collects, stores, uses, or processes. Please refer to those policies and agreements for any questions regarding your Administrator’s collection and use of your information.
We may change this Privacy Notice from time to time. If we make changes, we will notify you by revising the date at the top of the policy and, in some cases, we may provide you with additional notice (such as adding a statement to our homepage or sending you a notification). We encourage you to review the Privacy Notice whenever you access the Services or otherwise interact with us to stay informed about our information practices and the ways you can help protect your privacy.

As used in this Privacy Notice, “Personal Information” is any information that identifies an individual, such as (but not limited to) an individual’s name, email address, postal address.

The time periods for which we retain your personal information will depend on the purposes for which we use it. We will retain your Personal Information for so long as is necessary to provide the Services, and we may also continue to store your personal information to allow us to resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, comply with legal obligations and/or for other legally permissible purposes consistent with this Privacy Notice, unless applicable law requires we either dispose of it or keep it longer.
