In some cases, the Edutopia content, media, or other products and services (collectively, "Edutopia Resources") may be integrated into websites and mobile applications provided by third parties (including social networking sites), and these Terms also apply to your use of Edutopia Resources. These Terms apply to any website that links to these Terms.
If you’re under the age of 18, you must have your parent or legal guardian’s permission to use the Edutopia Technologies and Edutopia Resources. Please have your parent or legal guardian read these terms with you. If you’re a parent or legal guardian, and you allow your child to use Edutopia Technologies and Edutopia Resources, then these terms apply to you and you’re responsible for your child’s activity on the services. Some Edutopia Technologies and Edutopia Resources may have additional age requirements as described in the terms for those services. Your privacy is important to us. Our Privacy Policy is available at http://glef.org/privacy-policy, and we encourage you to carefully review it. You acknowledge the existence of the privacy policy.
You are subject to any additional posted guidelines applicable to specific services and features on the Edutopia Technologies that are posted by us from time to time (the "Guidelines"). We encourage you to read the Guidelines. All Guidelines are part of these Terms and are hereby incorporated by reference. To the extent that any terms of these Terms conflict with any Guidelines, these Terms control.
These Terms (excluding the privacy policy), and any future modifications to the Terms, govern your use of the Edutopia Technologies and constitute a legal contract between you and Edutopia.
If you do not agree to these Terms, please immediately discontinue using the Edutopia Technologies.
Absent a separate agreement with us, Edutopia does not claim any ownership rights to the content created by its users and shared through the Edutopia Technologies (including on our social media channels), including content in our blogs or forums ("Your Content"). We reserve the right to disable the ability of users to share content through the Edutopia Technologies and we may also have a third party provider, such as Facebook, provide a forum on the Edutopia Technologies to share Your Content. After posting Your Content, subject to any rights of third party providers, you continue to retain any ownership rights you have to Your Content and you continue to have the right to use and license Your Content in any way you choose. The Content that you upload to the Edutopia Technologies needs to comply with these Terms.
You hereby grant Edutopia a nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, sublicenseable, and transferable right and license to use, reproduce, create derivative works of, distribute, publicly perform, and publicly display Your Content in any and all media formats or channels, whether now known or hereafter devised, including, but not limited to, the Edutopia Technologies (and our social media channels) without payment and without further consent or notice to you. Without limiting the foregoing, Content you remove may persist for a reasonable amount of time in backup copies. And in some cases, you may not be able to remove content you have posted publicly.
We may remove Your Content in our sole and absolute discretion. If Your Content is removed from the Edutopia Technologies due to a violation of these Terms, including in response to any DMCA take-down notice or because the Content contains illegal or otherwise objectionable images, Edutopia has the right to use and reproduce Your Content in response to any subpoena or other judicial or administrative order; to assist government enforcement agencies or as otherwise required by law; and to protect the rights, property, or safety of Edutopia, any individual, or the general public. If Your Content is removed, lost, altered, damaged, misused, or otherwise irretrievable, you release Edutopia from and wave any and all liability.
You are responsible for making sure that you have all rights to Your Content, including the rights necessary for you to grant the licenses to Your Content contained in the Terms. You are solely responsible for Your Content. Edutopia does not guarantee any confidentiality or privacy with respect to any of Your Content.
Additionally, you understand and agree that Your Content that is displayed on the Edutopia Technologies may continue to appear on the Edutopia Technologies even after your account is deactivated for any reason and portions of Your Content may have been incorporated into other Edutopia features, such as profiles, community boards, and third-party social-sharing sites.
We encourage our users to submit suggestions and ideas to us on a nonconfidential basis. If you send us creative suggestions, ideas, notes, drawings, concepts, or other submissions (e.g., postings to chats, surveys, message boards, contests, or similar items) (collectively, the "Submissions"), you automatically grant, or warrant that the owner of the material expressly grants, Edutopia the royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, nonexclusive right and license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, and distribute the Submission (in whole or in part) through the Edutopia Technologies and to incorporate it in Edutopia Resources or other works in any form, media, or technology now known or hereafter developed for any purpose that Edutopia chooses. Edutopia does not claim any ownership rights to the Submissions. Edutopia is not obligated to integrate any Submission into the Edutopia Technologies or Edutopia Resources but may choose to do so at Edutopia's sole discretion. Regardless of whether or not a Submission is integrated into the Edutopia Technologies or Edutopia Resources, Edutopia is not obligated to maintain any Submissions in confidence and may publicly disclose or use the Submissions. The sender acknowledges that any such use by Edutopia will be without any compensation to the sender whatsoever and may not credit the sender, depending on the form of the Submission. The sender waives all so-called "moral rights" in all Submissions. The sender further waives the right to make any claims against Edutopia relating to unsolicited Submissions.
From time to time, Edutopia may give you opportunities to participate in Edutopia-sponsored events, promotions, and presentations through requests for user Submissions that we may request through our website, social media channels, or otherwise. Edutopia will post guidelines (or provide forms) on the Edutopia Technologies regarding your Submission. These guidelines are designed to assist you in providing Edutopia with a Submission that suits our needs. Edutopia may, at its discretion, alter or change the guidelines without notice to you. For instance, Edutopia may extend a deadline for Submissions or accept or reject Submissions that fall outside the guidelines at its discretion. Requests for user Submissions are not contests, and user Submissions may be evaluated in any manner Edutopia and its affiliates deem appropriate. Edutopia does not guarantee that any Submission you provide will be reviewed or even considered for publication. In some cases, Submissions not chosen in a Submission request may be used on the Edutopia Technologies before, during, or after the close of the Submission request. Such appearance on the Edutopia Technologies is independent of the decision to use your Submission for a particular event, promotion, or presentation.

EDUTOPIA TECHNOLOGIES AND ALL EDUTOPIA RESOURCES (INCLUDING THIRD-PARTY CONTENT) ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. EDUTOPIA AND ITS SUCCESSORS, AFFILIATES, CONTRACTORS, EMPLOYEES, SUPPLIERS, LICENSORS, PARTNERS, AND AGENTS EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, PERFORMANCE, SYSTEM INTEGRATION, QUIET ENJOYMENT, TITLE, AND NONINFRINGEMENT. EDUTOPIA AND ITS SUCCESSORS, AFFILIATES, CONTRACTORS, EMPLOYEES, SUPPLIERS, LICENSORS, PARTNERS, AND AGENTS DISCLAIM ANY WARRANTY THAT EDUTOPIA TECHNOLOGIES OR EDUTOPIA RESOURCES (INCLUDING THIRD-PARTY CONTENT) WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS OR BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE; THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED; THAT DATA WILL BE ACCURATE, MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, OR BE CORRECTED; OR THAT EDUTOPIA TECHNOLOGIES ARE OR WILL BE FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS OR ARE OR WILL BE FREE FROM SECURITY BREACHES.

You will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Edutopia, and its successors, subsidiaries, affiliates, co-branders, contractors, employees, all third-party advertisers, technology providers, service providers, or other partners, and each of their respective officers, directors, agents, shareholders, employees, and representatives, from and against any third-party claim, demand, loss, damage, cost, or liability (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to

You must not settle any matter without the prior written consent of Edutopia. Edutopia will use reasonable efforts to notify you of any claim, action, or proceeding subject to indemnification upon becoming aware of it.
Your interactions with other users and third parties, and any terms, conditions, warranties, or representations associated with such dealings, are solely between you and the other user or third party.

You release Edutopia, its officers, employees, agents, and successors from claims, demands, and damages of every kind or nature arising out of or related to any disputes with other users and other third parties. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says, "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by him, must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor." And, if you are not a California resident, you waive any applicable state statutes of a similar effect.

CERTAIN JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES. IF YOU RESIDE IN SUCH A JURISDICTION, SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE DISCLAIMERS, EXCLUSIONS, OR LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU, AND YOU MAY HAVE ADDITIONAL RIGHTS.

On occasion, Edutopia may choose certain users to test, review, and use certain Edutopia Technologies through a Beta program ("Beta"). You may be required to register for an account or otherwise submit certain personal information in order for Edutopia to identify you, properly determine your eligibility to participate in a Beta, and contact you upon selection for a Beta. Edutopia may select Beta users in its sole discretion. Selection for a Beta program in no way creates an employment relationship between Edutopia and the Beta user and does not entitle the Beta user to any benefits or compensation.
If you participate in a Beta, you must not disclose any information in any form regarding any part of the Beta unless expressly permitted in writing. You may not share, post, blog, send, email, record, summarize, excerpt, or otherwise disclose any part of any Beta, including the sale, resale, copying, or distribution of any access codes or keys to participate in any Beta.

We reserve the right, at our discretion, to modify the Terms at any time by posting a revised version on Edutopia.org or elsewhere on Edutopia Technologies. We last modified these Terms on the date stated above. Please check the Terms periodically for changes. Your continued use of Edutopia Technologies after the posting of changes will mean you agree to abide by those changes, so prior to each visit, please check the current Terms to determine the current Terms to which you are bound.

You acknowledge and agree that a breach or threatened breach of these Terms may cause irreparable injury, that money damages may be an inadequate remedy, and that Edutopia is entitled to seek temporary and permanent injunctive relief, without the posting of any bond or other security.

These Terms will be governed by and construed in accordance with California governing law and applicable provisions of U.S. federal law without regard to conflict of law principles. The provisions of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act, however designated, are excluded and do not apply to these Terms.
You agree to and will submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of the Northern District of California for any dispute under these Terms.
The failure of Edutopia to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of the right or provision. If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, then that provision will be severed from these Terms and not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
You may not delegate or transfer your duties and obligations under these Terms or assign these Terms or your Edutopia account to anyone. Edutopia may assign any of its rights and obligations under these Terms without notice or consent, including in connection with any merger (including by operation of law), consolidation, reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its related assets or similar transaction.

Neither party is relying upon any warranties, representations, assurances, or inducements not expressly set forth in these Terms.
The terms including and includes shall be deemed to be followed by the statement "without limitation," and neither of these terms shall be construed to limit any word or statement it follows to the specific or similar terms or matters immediately following it.
Edutopia may provide you with notices, including those regarding changes to these Terms or any of Edutopia's terms and conditions, by email, regular mail, or postings on Edutopia Technologies. Notices not pertaining to any amendments to these Terms or any Guidelines (such as notices relating to technical changes to Edutopia Technologies) are deemed given 2 days following the initial posting.
To the extent any of these terms conflict with U.S. state or local law applicable to a government agency using free software, the terms are hereby modified for that agency solely to the extent necessary to comply with that applicable law.
