DISCLOSURE TO THIRD PARTIES
Our policy is to not sell, rent, lease, provide or otherwise disclose your Personal Information to unaffiliated entities unless otherwise described in this Privacy Policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may disclose your Personal Information to nonprofit or government partners of Teach.org, subject to a written requirement that the Personal Information may be used only for the purpose of providing you with resources and opportunities related to exploring and entering the teaching profession. We may also disclose your Personal Information to third parties we engage, including for the purposes of marketing and administering, operating, configuring site design, maintaining and providing support for our Website and Content. These third parties are sometimes called “ service providers.” We may also disclose your information to others for marketing purposes, including through the use of cookies and similar technologies as described above. Finally, we may disclose Personal Information to certain other partner organizations for the sole purpose of improving the accuracy of contact information, subject to a written requirement that those partner organizations may not use such Personal Information to contact you for any purpose.
We also reserve the right to make your Personal Information available:
You should also be aware we are a nonprofit organization and simply because a website or web page includes our logo, name or otherwise refers to us, does not mean the website or web page is ours or under our control. We work with sponsors, advertisers, government agencies, and other third parties to bring you public service advertising and if you enter, provide or submit Personal Information on or to a co-branded website or webpage you may be subject to the terms, conditions and privacy policies of the third party sponsor, advertiser, government agency or co-branding organization.
SECURITY
We maintain reasonable standards of security and confidentiality. We also try to limit information access to individuals who need to have such access to perform their responsibilities associated with our Website and the Content. While we strive to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee the security of your Personal Information and your communications when using our Website.
YOUR CHOICES

In some instances, some Personal Information may not be changed or deleted by you and requires you to contact us for verification (e.g., email address).

INDIVIDUAL SUBJECT RIGHTS

To make a privacy request, please contact us by completing the form located at www.teach.org/support or by emailing us at with “Privacy Inquiry” in the subject line. Provide full details relating to your request, including your contact information and any other details you believe are relevant. We are committed to responding to requests to exercise data subject rights in accordance with applicable laws.
IDENTIFY VERIFICATION REQUIREMENT
The law may require us to verify that any request submitted was made by someone with the legal right to access the information. Therefore, before accessing or divulging any information pursuant to a data access request, we may request that you provide us with additional information so we can verify your identity and legal authority, particularly where the information provided with the request is insufficient to confirm legal authority and/or identity. We will provide a response to an access request within the timeframes required by law. If we cannot substantively respond in a timely manner, we will notify you and provide the reason for the delay. Under certain circumstances, we may not fulfill your request, such as when doing so would interfere with our regulatory or legal obligations, when we cannot verify your identity, if your request involves disproportionate cost or effort, or when the law allows us to retain that information. But we will respond to your request within a reasonable time, as required by law, and provide an explanation.
YOUR CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS
California law permits our customers who are California residents to request and obtain from us information about the personal information (if any) we disclosed to third parties for their direct marketing purposes in the preceding calendar year. If applicable, this information would include a list of the categories of personal information that was shared and the names and addresses of all third parties with which we shared information in the immediately preceding twelve calendar months. At this time, we do not disclose your personal information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes so this requirement does not apply to us.
