Privacy Principles - COPPA Compliance

Coherence Education's Privacy Principles 


Kids ought to be able to feel safe online but unfortunately, we need to have certain restrictions to protect them as best we can.
  • We collect information from parents who pay for the courses and encourage students not to enter any private info, see below.
  • We do not sell your information to third parties.
  • Teachers can open an account and use their email and username to answer questions in the forum.
  • No kids under 13 are allowed in our community forums. Parents can post questions on their behalf. (The reason why the age is 13 is because of FTC COPPA laws.)
