Our Organization’s Mission and App Use, Purpose and No Collection of Data Policy:
Unite & Inspire is a State of Texas registered volunteering 501(c) 3 Non-Profit Organization whose mission statement is to “To unite and inspire children, youth and adults to volunteer and give back to the communities in need by sharing resources to cultivate their growth as civic-minded responsible global citizens.” Among the initiatives and volunteering programs our non-profit engages in, we offer specific internships to high school and undergraduate students in conducting research, understanding of the needs of special needs children globally, and creating smart applications among other initiatives to assist children with special needs. The App you are accessing was designed through our internship to assist children with autism in their fine and gross motor skills by having an interactive application that allows children to access the App only through parental supervision and permission. The App is designed to allow autistic children to access logic and word games in math, science, and language including the alphabet, spelling, sentences and punctuation. The App has video lessons for each of the subjects as well which do not collect any data, are not accessed through any third- party site and are self-contained within the app itself, which does not track or gather any information about the user. The App does not collect any data from our users at all as it has not been designed to capture any private information and is designed solely for the authorized parental guidance access and use for their special needs children and as such has been designed specifically to not collect any user data including, but not limited to, any type of identification, email address, device IP, any type of tracking, GPS information, does not require the user to input any personal information of any kind to access and use the App or benefit from it, does not access any back end systems of the device the user uses to access the App and has no data collection functionality or capacity and is not designed to collect any private or personal data of any user such that the use of the App will result in no data collection whatsoever by Unite & Inspire.
Further, the App does not require users to create an account, input any identification information or provide any information in order to use the App as all of its functionality is internal to the App and the App does not contain software that collects, gathers, stores or retains any personal or private information of any user.

Controls for Do-Not-Track Features on Individual User Browsers Used and Chosen Solely by the Individual User.
Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. No uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this PrivacyPolicy.
