Privacy Policy 

Effective Date: 2025 School Year 

21st Century Cyber Charter School (“the School,” “we,” or “us”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, protect, and share information when you visit our website. 

1. Information We Collect 

● Information you provide directly: When you submit forms (e.g., Contact Us, Request Information, Enrollment Interest), we may collect your name, address, phone number, email address, and any message you choose to include. 

● Information collected automatically: Our site may use cookies, log files, and analytics services to collect technical data such as your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring/exit pages, and the dates/times you access our site. 

● Aggregate data: We may collect general, non-identifiable data about site usage (e.g., number of visitors to certain pages) to help us improve the website. 

2. How We Use Your Information 

We may use information collected through our website to: 

● Communicate with you about programs, services, or inquiries. 

● Process and respond to enrollment-related questions. 

● Improve the functionality, design, and content of our site. 

● Monitor site usage trends and protect the security of our systems. 

● Comply with applicable legal obligations. 

We will never sell your information to third parties. 

3. How We Share Information 

● With service providers: We may share limited information with trusted vendors who help us operate our website (e.g., hosting, analytics, or email delivery). These vendors must protect the information and may not use it for other purposes. 

● When required by law: We may disclose information to comply with legal obligations, government requests, or court orders. 

● In the aggregate: We may share non-personally identifiable data (e.g., website usage statistics) with partners or stakeholders to demonstrate engagement, but this data will not identify individuals. 

4. Student Information (FERPA) 

Student educational records are protected by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). The School does not post or share personally identifiable student information through its public website. Any submission of student data through secure enrollment systems is handled separately and in accordance with FERPA and state law.

5. Cookies & Analytics 

Our site may use cookies (small text files placed on your device) to improve site functionality and understand user behavior. Cookies may track preferences, login sessions, and usage patterns. You may disable cookies in your browser, but some parts of the site may not function properly.

6. Text Message and Email Communications

• Text message communications. We use text messaging to communicate with you about your service after you submit your enrollment form. Standard messaging rates may apply, and the frequency of messages may vary. Mobile carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.
• No data sharing for marketing. No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties.
• Opt out of text message communications. You may opt out of text messaging at any time by replying to any message with STOP or by contacting us at info@21cccs.org. This will end communications from that particular phone number. You may continue to receive service-related and non-marketing messages from other School-managed phone numbers, and you may opt out of those in the same manner.
• Opt-out of marketing communications. You may opt out of marketing-related emails by using the “unsubscribe” or “opt-out” link located at the bottom of the email, or by contacting us at info@21cccs.org. You may still receive service-related and non-marketing communications.

7. Security 

We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect information collected through our website. While we take reasonable measures to secure your information, no website or internet transmission is completely risk-free. 

8. Links to Other Websites 

Our website may contain links to other websites that are not operated by the School. This Privacy Policy does not apply to those external sites, and we are not responsible for their privacy practices. 

9. Children’s Privacy 

This website is intended for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect information from children under the age of 13 without parental consent. 

10. Updates to This Policy 

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
