  5. Bloomz App For Teachers

Bloomz is a low-stress way for teachers to address any issues as they come up so that they do not build up. While some of the other apps can do a few of these, Bloomz is the only parent-teacher communication app that can do all nine. You may have different features that are important to you, so check the chart above. The most compliments on any tool I’ve implemented in the last 15 years.

Effective date: August 1, 2019

Welcome to Bloomz! Please read these terms of use carefully ('Terms'). The following Terms are a legally binding contract between you and Bloomz, Inc. ('Bloomz', 'we', or 'us'). These Terms govern and apply to your access and use of www.bloomz.net and Bloomz' services available via Bloomz' website and mobile apps (collectively, the 'Service(s)' and/or the “App(s)”). By accessing or using our Service, you agree to be bound to all the terms and conditions described, including the Bloomz Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to all these terms and conditions, do not use our Service.

If you are entering into this Agreement on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind such entity to these terms and conditions, in which case the terms 'you', 'your' or 'Member' shall refer to such entity. If you do not have such authority, or if you do not agree with these terms and conditions, you must not accept this Agreement and may not use the Service.

We reserve the right, at our discretion, to change these Terms at any time. If they do change, we will do our best to tell you in advance by placing a notification on the Bloomz.net website, or by sending you an email or notification through our app. You may also check these Terms periodically for changes. If you use the Service in any way after a change to the Terms is effective, then please remember that means you agree to all the Terms. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns regarding these Terms or the Service, please contact us at support@bloomz.com.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least thirteen (13) years old to use the Service. By agreeing to the Terms, you represent and warrant to us that you are at least thirteen (13) years old and, that your registration and your use of the Service is in compliance with any and all applicable laws and regulations.

Teachers can authorize parents and family members to view information in their child’s portfolio, timeline or profile. By creating a parent account and accessing the student’s information, you agree that you are the legal guardian of the student or have permission from the legal guardian of the student to create a parent account and access the student’s information.

As a parent, you will only be able to access your child’s information. Other parents and adults may be able to see user submissions related to your child if they are submitted in a group or group conversation or if your child is tagged in a submission with their child, such as when a teacher posts a group picture to the whole classroom, or when your child collaborates with other kids and work is shared on their portfolio.

If you’re under the age of 13, you may only use the Service by obtaining parental consent as described in our Privacy Policy and as required by federal and local regulation. Students agree to use Bloomz in a manner that is appropriate to the classroom. You may not violate the policies of your school or school district in your use of Bloomz. Individuals outside of the United States are required to follow their local regulation with regards to consent and minimum age. If you are aware Bloomz is collecting information from a student without parental consent, please contact us immediately at support@bloomz.com and we will take appropriate action.

2. Privacy Policy

Please read the Bloomz Privacy Policy carefully for information regarding our collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information. If any conflict exists between the Terms and our Privacy Policy, the Terms will prevail.

3. Accounts and Registration

You promise to provide us with accurate, complete, and updated registration information about yourself. You will also be asked to provide a password. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password. You agree to accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account. You may not transfer your account to anyone else without our prior written permission.

If you have reason to believe that your account is no longer secure for any reason (for example, in the event of a loss, theft or unauthorized disclosure or use of your password), then you agree to immediately notify us at support@bloomz.com. If you violate the terms of this Agreement, Bloomz reserves the right to reclaim any username you have registered.

4. Intellectual Property Rights

4.1 Content
The materials displayed or performed on the Service, (including, but not limited to, text, graphics, articles, photos, images, illustrations, User Submissions (defined below), and so forth (the 'Content') and the trademarks, service marks and logos contained on the Service ('Marks'), are protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. Content is provided for your information and personal use only and may not be used, copied, distributed, transmitted, displayed, sold, licensed, reverse engineered, de-compiled, or otherwise exploited for any other purposes whatsoever without prior written consent of the owner of the Content or in any way that violates someone else's rights, including Bloomz’. You understand that Bloomz owns the Service. You won't modify, publish, transmit, participate in the transfer or sale of, reproduce (except as expressly provided in this Section), creative derivative works based on, or otherwise exploit any of the Service.

4.2 User Submissions
Anything you post, upload, share, store, or otherwise provide through the Service is your 'User Submission.' You retain copyright and any other proprietary rights you hold in the User Submission that you post to the Service. For all User Submissions, you hereby grant Bloomz a worldwide, non-exclusive, transferable, assignable, fully paid-up, royalty-free right and license to host, transfer, display, perform, reproduce, modify, distribute and re-distribute, and otherwise exploit your User Submissions, in whole or in part, in any media formats and through any media channels (for example making sure your content is viewable on your iPhone as well as your computer). This is a license only – your ownership in User Submissions is not affected.

By posting and sharing User Submissions with other users of the Service, you hereby grant those users a non-exclusive license to access and use such User Submissions.

  • You are solely responsible for your User Submissions and the consequences of posting or publishing User Submissions. By posting and publishing User Submissions, you affirm, represent, and warrant that:You are the creator and owner of, or have the necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to use and to authorize Bloomz and users of the Service to use and distribute your User Submissions as necessary to exercise the licenses granted by you in this Section 4 and in the manner contemplated by Bloomz and the Terms;
  • Your User Submissions, and the use thereof as contemplated herein, does not and will not: (a) infringe, violate, or misappropriate any third-party right, including any copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, moral right, privacy right, right of publicity, or any other intellectual property or proprietary right; (b) slander, defame, libel, or invade the right of privacy, publicity or other property rights of any other person; (c) contain any viruses, adware, spyware, worms, or other malicious code; or (d) violate any applicable law or regulation.

You agree to waive, and hereby do waive, any legal or equitable rights or remedies you have or may have against Bloomz with respect thereto. We expressly disclaim any and all liability in connection with User Submissions. If notified by a user or content owner that User Submissions allegedly does not conform to the Terms, we may investigate the allegation and determine in our sole discretion whether to remove the content, which we reserve the right to do at any time and without notice. For clarity, Bloomz does not permit copyright infringing activities on the Service.

5. DMCA Notification

We comply with the provisions of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) as it relates to online service providers, like Bloomz, removing material that we believe in good faith violates someone's copyright. If you have any complaints or objections to material posted on the Service, you may contact us at: support@bloomz.com. To learn more about DMCA, click here.

6. FERPA

Certain information that may be provided to Bloomz by teachers, teacher aides, or other personnel at an Institution ('School Official') that is directly related to a student and maintained by an Institution, may be considered an education record ('Education Record') under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act ('FERPA'). Other information provided to Bloomz by School Officials about a student, such as student name and grade level, may be considered directory information under FERPA ('Directory Information') and thus not an Education Record. A school may not generally disclose personally identifiable information from an eligible student's education records to a third party without written consent of the parent and/or eligible student or without meeting one of the exemptions set forth in FERPA ('FERPA Exemption(s)'), including the exemption for Directory Information ('Directory Information Exemption') or disclosure to school officials with a legitimate educational interest ('School Official Exemption').

As a School Official or Institution providing Directory Information or any Education Record to Bloomz, you represent, warrant and covenant to Bloomz, as applicable, that your Institution has:

  1. Complied with the Directory Information Exemption, including, without limitation, informing parents and eligible students what information the Institution deems to be directory information and allowing parents and eligible students a reasonable amount of time to request that schools not disclose directory information about them; and/or
  2. Complied with the School Official Exemption, including, without limitation, informing parents in their annual notification of FERPA rights that the Institution defines 'school official' to include service providers and defines 'legitimate educational interest' to include services such as the type provided by Bloomz; or
  3. Obtained all necessary parental or eligible student written consent to share the Directory Information and Educational Records with Bloomz, in each case, solely to enable Company's operation of the Service.

Bloomz will never share Education Records with third parties except (i) as directed by a Bloomz user (e.g., teacher sharing with another teacher or parent); or (ii) to our service providers that are necessary for us to provide the Service, as stated in our Privacy Policy. Education Records are never used or disclosed for third party advertising or any kind of first- or third-party behaviorally-targeted advertising to students or parents. This section shall not be construed to prohibit Bloomz from marketing or advertising directly to parents so long as the marketing or advertising did not result from the use of Educational Records to provide behaviorally targeted advertising.

Bloomz may use Education Records that have been de-identified for product development, research or other purposes ('De-Identified Data'). De-Identified Data will have all direct and indirect personal identifiers removed, this includes, but is not limited to, name, date of birth, demographic information, location information and school identity. Bloomz agrees not to attempt to re-identify the De-Identified Data and not to transfer the De-Identified Data to a third party unless that party agrees not to attempt re-identification.
