Privacy Policy
How we handle information collected through this website.
Last updated: July 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Parent.Email, a project of the School Contact Initiative, handles information when you visit this website (the "Site"). This Site is currently an informational and advocacy hub for the Parent Email concept, which is a work in progress and in beta testing, as described in our Disclaimer. This policy covers the Site itself and does not describe the data practices of any school, district, or third-party platform that may later integrate with Parent Email.
Information We Collect
When you browse this Site, we may automatically collect standard technical information such as your browser type, device type, general location, and pages visited, typically through analytics tools. If you use our Contact form, we collect the information you voluntarily provide, such as your name, email address, and message.
How We Use Information
We use the information we collect to operate and improve this Site, respond to inquiries submitted through the Contact form, understand which content is useful to visitors, and communicate with you if you have asked to be contacted.
Phone Number Verification and School Data
This website does not itself collect or store parent phone numbers, verification codes, or student enrollment data. Those data flows belong to the Parent Email system as it is piloted with participating schools and districts, and are governed by separate agreements with those institutions. If you are a parent or administrator participating in a pilot, please refer to the specific privacy terms provided to you as part of that pilot.
Cookies and Analytics
This Site may use cookies or similar technologies to support basic functionality and to understand aggregate visitor behavior. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings; doing so may affect some Site functionality.
How We Share Information
We do not sell visitor information. We may share information with service providers who help us operate the Site (such as hosting or analytics providers), or when required by law.
Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect information submitted through this Site, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Children's Privacy
This Site is intended for parents, guardians, educators, and administrators. It is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children through this Site.
Your Choices
If you have contacted us and would like your information updated or removed from our records, you can reach out through our Contact page.
Changes to This Policy
As Parent Email moves through beta testing and development, this Privacy Policy may be updated to reflect changes to the Site or to the broader project. We will update the "Last updated" date above when changes are made.
