By submitting your personal information below to make your request, the personal information you provide for that purpose will be collected and retained for the duration required by the CCPA, used only to respond to your request and to keep the legally-required records. By submitting a request to us, you represent to us that you are (or you are an authorized agent of) the person you identify in the request. The CCPA requires us to verify that personal information is being released to the correct party for whom the information is being requested. In order to ensure that we only provide personal information to the correct person, we may also contact you via email at the address you provide to authenticate you are the owner of the email address being used. NoRedInk operates as a service provider when collecting and processing information for the schools we work with, so we will not be able to provide you with personal information we received through those schools.
2. If you want to opt-out of our corporate website tracking mechanisms, you can disable all cookies (which will affect the functionality of most websites), or only third party cookies, which may affect the functionality of some websites. Most tracking mechanisms use third party cookies. Then if you know which cookies you want to delete, you can delete those, or you can delete all of your cookies (which again, will affect the functionality of most websites— for example, you may lose your login status). You have to repeat the process for each browser you use. Google Analytics has a special link you will need to visit to learn how to stop it from tracking you: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
3. Each time you use a different computer or browser, we may not recognize that browser as one that has opted out from our corporate website tracking mechanisms. We also may not be able to recognize that we collected personal information from that computer or browser before you made the change unless it’s information that you volunteered to us or which we stored as part of your user account.
