These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a contract between you and HSTRY LTD. (dba as Sutori). They govern your use of Sutori’s sites, services, products, and content (“Services”). By using Sutori, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree to any of the Terms, you cannot use Sutori. By using Sutori, you agree to let Sutori collect and use information as detailed in our Privacy Policy. If you are outside the United States, you consent to letting Sutori transfer, store, and process your information (including your personal information and content) in and out of the United States. We are free to adapt these Terms at any time. If a change is made, we will let you know by email before they take effect. By using Sutori on or after that effective date, you agree to the new Terms. If you do not agree to them, you should delete your account before they take effect, otherwise your use of the site and content will be subject to the new Terms. <ul> <li>Children’s privacy &amp.

COPPA compliance The Children's Online Privacy and Protection Act (“COPPA”) requires that online service providers obtain parental consent before they collect personally identifiable information online from children who are under 13. If you are a student under 13, please do not send any personal information about yourself to us if your school, district, and/or teacher has not obtained this prior consent from your parent or guardian, and please do not send any personal information other than what we request from you in connection with the Services. If we learn we have collected personal information from a student under 13 without parental consent being obtained by his or her school, district, and/or teacher, or if we learn a student under 13 has provided us personal information beyond what we request from him or her, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that a student under 13 may have provided us personal information in violation of this paragraph, please contact us at info@sutori.com. If you are a school, district, or teacher, you represent and warrant that you are solely responsible for complying with COPPA, meaning that you must obtain advance written consent from all parents or guardians whose children under 13 will be accessing the Services. An equally valid way for schools, districts and teachers to comply with COPPA is to undertake not to enter in personally identifiable information (PII) for students under thirteen. Concretely this means you may use unidentifiable usernames, personal information and names when registering accounts for students under the age of thirteen. You are responsible for understanding how any Publisher Software that you install on behalf of yourself or other users may collect and use information of users of Sutori’s Services. When obtaining consent, you must provide parents and guardians with our Privacy Policy. You must keep all consents on file and provide them to us if we request them. If you are a teacher, you represent and warrant that you have permission and authorization from your school and/or district to use the Services as part of your curriculum, and for purposes of COPPA compliance, you represent and warrant that you are entering into these Terms on behalf of your school and/or district.
