Terms of Use

Welcome

The Learner's Library is a free educational website for elementary school libraries, run by BrightBop Tech LLC in Austin, Texas ("we," "us"). By using the site, you agree to these terms. If you use it on behalf of a school, you agree to them for your school too.

Who can use it

• Students use The Learner's Library with their school's code or QR code, at school or wherever their school allows. Students don't create accounts.
• Educators (librarians, teachers and school staff) can create an account with their school email address to get their school's code and tools.
• Educator accounts are for adults working at a school. Anyone under 18 may not create an educator account.

A free service

The Learner's Library is currently free for every school, with no ads. If we ever need to introduce fees, we'll give educators at least 60 days' notice, we'll never charge anyone without their agreement, and any school year already underway will finish free.

We may add, change or remove books and features over time to improve the service. If we ever plan to stop offering it, we'll try to let educators know ahead of time.

Educator accounts

If you create an educator account, you agree to:

• Use your own school email address and only join schools where you work
• Keep your password private, and tell us if you think someone else has used your account
• Share your school's code and QR code only with your students and school community
• Use "Keep this device signed in" only on school devices meant for students

You're responsible for activity on your account.

What's not allowed

Please don't:

• Sign up with someone else's email, or claim to work at a school where you don't
• Guess, share publicly or misuse other schools' codes
• Send fake activity or interfere with another school's data
• Try to break into, overload or interfere with the site
• Copy, resell or redistribute the books, videos or artwork outside your school
• Put student names or personal information in messages

We may limit or remove access for anyone who does.

Ownership and use of the content

The books, characters (including Luna), artwork, narration, videos and website are owned by BrightBop Tech LLC.

Schools and educators may use The Learner's Library with students, show it in class, and print the signs and posters from the dashboard for their school. You may not copy the content into other products or sell it.

The Learner's Library is aligned to the AASL National School Library Standards. It is not made, sponsored or endorsed by the American Association of School Librarians.

If you send us ideas or feedback, we may use them to improve The Learner's Library without owing you anything.

Privacy

We never collect personal information from students. Our Privacy Policy explains exactly what we collect, why, and how long we keep it.

No guarantees, and limits on liability

We work hard to keep The Learner's Library accurate, safe and available, but it's provided "as is." We can't promise it will always be available, error-free or right for every classroom.

To the extent the law allows, BrightBop Tech LLC isn't liable for indirect or unexpected losses from using the site. Because the service is free, our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us to use it, which is $0.

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas.

Ending access, changes and contact

• Leaving: you can stop using the site anytime, and ask us to delete your educator account.
• Our changes: if we make important changes to these terms, we'll update the date at the top and let educators know by email before they take effect.
• Questions: email hello@thelearnerslibrary.com.
