Privacy Policy

1. Information We May Collect

SearchISO is designed to operate with a limited amount of personal information. Depending on how you use the website, information we may process can include:

• Technical information such as IP address, browser type, device type, referring page, and basic request information.
• Website activity such as pages visited, worksheet searches, downloads, ratings, and interactions with resource links.
• Information you voluntarily provide through contact or contribution forms, such as your name, email address, store name, resource details, and submitted links.
• Information necessary to protect interactive features from duplicate, abusive, or automated activity.

2. How We Use Information

Information may be used to operate, maintain, secure, and improve SearchISO. This can include improving worksheet search and organization, processing contributions, responding to messages, understanding website performance, and protecting the platform from misuse.

Search and interaction information may also help us understand which educational topics and resources are useful to visitors.

3. Worksheet Ratings and Interactions

SearchISO allows visitors to rate individual worksheets. Rating information may be stored with technical identifiers designed to reduce repeated voting on the same worksheet.

Ratings are used to calculate aggregate scores and may influence how worksheets are ordered or displayed. SearchISO does not publicly display the identity of individual visitors who submit ratings.

4. Worksheet Downloads

SearchISO may record aggregate download counts when visitors open or download worksheets. These counts help us understand resource usage and improve how educational materials are organized.

Worksheet files may be hosted by SearchISO or by third-party storage and content providers. When a file is hosted externally, the external provider may process technical information according to its own privacy policy.

5. Contributions and Creator Information

Educational creators may submit worksheets or sample pages for review. Contribution forms may request information such as:

• Worksheet title and description.
• Grade, subject, format, and related resource information.
• A free worksheet or file link.
• A preview image.
• Creator or store name and store URL.
• A link to the complete educational resource.
• An email address for communication about the submission.

Information intended for public attribution, such as a creator or store name and related public links, may appear with an accepted worksheet. Contact information such as an email address is not intended for public display unless explicitly provided for that purpose.

6. Cookies and Similar Technologies

SearchISO may use cookies or similar browser technologies when they are necessary for website functionality, security, preferences, analytics, or interactive features.

For example, browser-based information may help support rating controls or prevent unnecessary repeated interactions. Your browser may allow you to block or remove cookies, although doing so may affect some website functionality.

7. Analytics and Website Measurement

SearchISO may use website measurement or analytics tools to understand general traffic patterns, page performance, search activity, and how visitors interact with the website.

If third-party analytics services are used, those providers may process certain technical information according to their own terms and privacy policies.

8. External Links and Third-Party Platforms

SearchISO contains links to external websites and services. These may include educational marketplaces, creator stores, file-hosting services, social networks, and platforms where complete resources can be viewed or purchased.

Examples may include platforms such as Teachers Pay Teachers, Gumroad, Payhip, Amazon, creator-owned stores, and other third-party websites.

When you follow an external link, you leave SearchISO and the destination website’s own privacy policy and terms apply. SearchISO does not control how third-party websites process your information.

9. Affiliate Links

Some links to complete educational resources may be affiliate links. If you follow an affiliate link and make a qualifying purchase, SearchISO may receive a commission from the relevant platform or seller.

Affiliate tracking may involve cookies or similar technologies operated by the external platform. Their use is governed by the privacy and tracking policies of that platform.

10. Social Sharing

Worksheet pages may include sharing links for services such as Pinterest, Facebook, WhatsApp, or Telegram. These links allow you to open the selected service and share a resource.

Once you interact with an external social platform, that platform may process information according to its own privacy policy.

11. Data Retention

Information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including operating the website, maintaining contribution records, responding to inquiries, preventing abuse, and keeping aggregate worksheet statistics.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the operational or legal reason for keeping it.

12. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures intended to protect information processed through SearchISO. However, no website, storage system, or transmission method can guarantee absolute security.

13. Children’s Privacy

SearchISO provides educational resources primarily for teachers, parents, educators, and other adults supporting learners. The website is not designed to knowingly collect personal information directly from children.

If you believe a child has submitted personal information through the website, please contact us so the situation can be reviewed and appropriate action can be taken.

14. Your Privacy Requests

Depending on applicable law and the type of information involved, you may be able to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information you have submitted to SearchISO.

If your request concerns information provided through a contribution or contact form, please provide enough information for us to identify the relevant submission.

15. Changes to This Privacy Policy

SearchISO may update this Privacy Policy as the website develops, new features are introduced, third-party services change, or privacy requirements evolve.

The date at the top of this page will be updated when meaningful changes are made.
