Personally identifiable information may include, without limitation, (i) contact data (such as a Visitor’s name, mailing and email addresses) and (ii) demographic data (such as a Visitor’s zip code, address, and location, schools attended or school interests). If a Visitor communicates with ClarityEd Market by email or otherwise, posts any comments or any other content on or to the Website, posts messages to any forums, completes online forms, surveys or entries, provides articles, reviews, or blog posts, or otherwise interacts with or uses the features on the Website, any information provided in such communications may be collected by ClarityEd Market. ClarityEd Market may also collect information about how Visitors use the Website, for example, by tracking the number of unique views received by the pages of the Website, or the domains and IP addresses from which Visitors originate. While not all of the information that ClarityEd Market collects from Visitors is personally identifiable, it may be associated with personally identifiable information that Visitors provide ClarityEd Market through the Website or otherwise.
ClarityEd Market may use “cookies” or “web beacons” to track how Visitors use the Website. A cookie is a software component that can be stored on Visitors’ computing device and used to recognize Visitors if they visit the Website again. Visitors may adjust their web browser software if they do not wish to accept cookies. ClarityEd Market does not currently recognize “do not track” signals. ClarityEd Market may use third party advertising networks to serve advertisements on the Website. The cookies received with banner advertisements served by these networks are used to collect and build anonymous behavioral profiles by these companies to deliver targeted advertisements and tracking referrals, and ClarityEd Market generally does not have access to this information.

INFORMATION PROVIDED AS PART OF VISITOR SUBMISSIONS
If a Visitor includes such Visitor’s personally identifiable information as part of the Visitor submission that such Visitor posts to the Website, such information may be made available to any parties using the Website and/or such Visitor submission. ClarityEd Market does not edit or otherwise remove such information from Visitor submission before it is posted on the Website. If a Visitor does not wish to have such Visitor’s personally identifiable information made available in this manner, such Visitor must remove any such information from the Visitor submission before posting. Visitor contact information (which may include, without limitation, a Visitor’s username and email address) may be included with any Visitor submission that a Visitor posts via the Website. ClarityEd Market is not liable for any damages caused or incurred due to personally identifiable information made available in the foregoing manners.

ClarityEd Market is not responsible for the circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures relating to the Website by any Visitors or third parties.
CORRECTING, ACCESSING OR REMOVING PERSONAL INFORMATION
If a Visitor’s personally identifiable information changes, or if a Visitor no longer desires to receive non-account specific information from ClarityEd Market, ClarityEd Market will endeavor to provide a way to correct, update and/or remove that Visitor’s previously-provided personal data. This can be done by emailing a request to ClarityEd Market at legal(*)ClarityEd.com. Additionally, you may request access to the personally identifiable information as collected by ClarityEd Market by sending a request to ClarityEd Market as set forth above. Please note that in certain circumstances, ClarityEd Market may not be able to completely remove a Visitor’s information from its systems. For example, ClarityEd Market may retain a Visitor’s personal information for legitimate business purposes, if it may be necessary to prevent fraud or future abuse, for account recovery purposes, if required by law or as retained in ClarityEd Market’s data backup systems or cached or archived pages. All retained personally identifiable information will continue to be subject to the terms of the Privacy Policy to which the Visitor has previously agreed.
