Learnly Academy Privacy Policy
Last Updated: January 21, 2026
1. Operator Information
Learnly Academy is an educational platform designed for students. To protect the safety and privacy of our community and operators, inquiries are handled digitally:
Operator: Learnly Academy
Contact: support@learnlyacademy.org
Physical Address: To protect the privacy of our student-led team, we do not publish a physical address. All parental requests and legal inquiries are handled via our verified support email.
2. Information We Collect
We collect only the minimum amount of information necessary to provide a functional and motivating educational experience.
Account Requirements: A Username and Email Address are required for login and progress tracking.
Nickname/Display Name: Users are encouraged to provide a “Nickname” for public display. If this is left blank, the site defaults to the Username. We actively discourage the use of full legal names.
Parental Contact: For users under the age of 13, we collect a Parent/Guardian Email Address to obtain verifiable consent.
Learning & Gamification: We track lesson progress, quiz scores, and “Gamification” stats (XP, Ranks, and Achievements) to provide feedback and rewards.
Media: Users may voluntarily upload a profile picture. Learnly Academy Policy strongly recommends the use of non-identifiable avatars or drawings.
3. Public Disclosure and Student Safety
Leaderboard Privacy: Our custom leaderboard displays only the student’s Nickname, XP, and Rank. Real names and email addresses are never shown publicly.
Incognito Mode: Through our Safety & Privacy Center, students or parents can choose to hide the account from the leaderboard entirely.
Profile Privacy: Personal information such as email addresses and real names are never made public to other users.
Third-Party Processing: We use WordPress, Tutor LMS, and GamiPress to power the site. These tools process data only to facilitate site functionality. We do not sell, rent, or trade user data to third parties for marketing or advertising.
4. Children’s Privacy (COPPA Compliance)
In compliance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), we maintain the following strict protections:
Verifiable Parental Consent: Accounts for children under 13 remain “Pending” and inactive until a parent or guardian responds to our verification email.
Data Limitation: We do not condition a child’s participation on the disclosure of more information than is reasonably necessary.
Deletion of Unverified Data: If parental consent is not provided within 7 days of a registration attempt, all associated data is permanently purged from our systems.
5. Cookies and Technical Data
We use essential cookies to maintain your login session and remember your site preferences (such as “Dark Mode” on the leaderboard). We do not use tracking cookies for behavioral advertising or third-party profiling.
6. Parental Rights and Controls
Parents or legal guardians hold the following rights:
Review: You may request to see all personal information collected from your child.
Revoke Consent: You may revoke consent at any time, which will stop further data collection.
Deletion (Right to be Forgotten): You may request that we permanently delete your child’s account and all associated progress and data.
Display Name/Photo Control: You may request that we modify or remove a child’s display name or profile picture at any time.
To exercise these rights, please contact us from your registered parent email at support@learnlyacademy.org.
7. Data Retention and Security
We retain user data only as long as the account remains active. Accounts inactive for more than 12 months may be deleted to protect user privacy. While we utilize SSL encryption and professional security protocols to protect your data, no internet-based service is 100% secure; we encourage students and parents to practice safe internet habits.
