Mizzen is a project of the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation, operated through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Mott Afterschool App, LLC. With its long commitment to providing opportunities and safe spaces for children and youth to learn and grow, the Foundation has become a champion of afterschool and summer learning programs — and the Mizzen app is its next major step.
Having been deeply entrenched in the Education sector for over 90 years, we understand our responsibility to both support the effective use of student information and safeguard student privacy and information security.
The primary users of the Mizzen application will be teachers, volunteers, program staff, and other adult supervisors and front-line providers within the Afterschool focused organizations and programs. Students will NOT and do not have access to the Mizzen application.
The Mizzen application collects personal information to provide users with the product and/or service requested, in this case certain class management functions such as attendance taking.
We collect computer metadata and content to customize, improve, and maintain the Mott Afterschool products and services. When one uses the Mizzen application, we automatically collect certain information from them through MixPanel (www.mixpanel.com), a business analytics company. Please review their Privacy Policy.
MixPanel tracks user interactions with web and mobile applications, including information about the user experience such as IP address, operating systems, pages viewed, and time spent. A user may decline to provide such information to us and/or disable cookies in their browser, although some of the features or services may not function properly as a result, and some services may not be available. We do not sell or license information to third parties. Information is shared with the Mott Foundation, which supports the Mott Afterschool Program. We collect the minimum information needed for the optimal operation of the Mizzen application and the related Afterschool Program. MixPanel and Mott Foundation will have access to personal information and will be bound by contracts with us to use the information in accordance with the Mizzen Application Privacy Policy.
Information security is very important to us. We use a combination of internal processes, technology, and physical security controls to help protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, use, or modification. To help protect the privacy of the information collected by the Mizzen application, we employ encryption in data transmission and storage. We have internal policies and processes directed towards limiting access to personal information to our employees, contractors, and agents who need to know.
Please be aware, however, that despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse.
Mizzen only shares information in the ways described in this Privacy Policy. We do not sell or license information to third parties. Information is shared with the Mott Foundation, which supports the Mott Afterschool Program. We collect the minimum information needed for the optimal operation of the Mizzen application and the related Afterschool Program. MixPanel and Mott Foundation will have access to your information and will be bound by contracts with us to use the information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
