2Who Can Use ScribbleSum
ScribbleSum is designed for use by children under adult supervision. Student accounts may only be created and managed by a parent, legal guardian, or educator acting on behalf of a school. By creating a student account, the creating adult confirms that they are the parent, guardian, or an authorized educator of the student, and consents to the student's use of the Service in accordance with these Terms and our Privacy Policy.
Parent and educator accounts may only be created by individuals who are at least 18 years old and legally able to enter into this agreement.
3Accounts & Account Security
- Parents and educators are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of login credentials for accounts they create, including student accounts.
- You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account and any student accounts linked to it.
- Notify us promptly via our contact form if you suspect unauthorized use of an account.
- We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or are used in a way that risks the safety of other users.
