What We Do NOT Collect
How We Use Data

We do not sell, rent, or share student data with third parties for commercial purposes — ever.
Data Retention & Deletion
Teacher and student records are retained while your account is active. Upon written request, we will delete all associated data within 30 days. Schools may also request bulk deletion at the end of each school year.
Third-Party AI Processing
Newton Learning uses Large Language Model (LLM) services to generate instructional content. Text submitted to AI features is processed in transit and is not used to train third-party models. See the Data Processing Agreement (Section 4) for details on sub-processors.
Acceptance
These Terms of Service are entered into by and between you and Newton Learning LLC ("Newton," "we," "us"). By accessing Newton Learning, you agree to these Terms. If you are using the platform on behalf of a school or district, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization.
Permitted Use
AI Content Disclaimer
All AI-generated materials (worksheets, IEP narrative drafts, reading passages, etc.) are provided as drafts only. Newton Learning does not warrant the accuracy, legal compliance, or therapeutic appropriateness of generated content. Teachers bear professional responsibility for reviewing and approving all materials before use.
Intellectual Property
Content you create and save using Newton Learning tools belongs to you and your school. Newton Learning retains rights to the platform, algorithms, and UI/UX. You grant Newton Learning a limited, non-exclusive license to process your inputs to deliver the service.
Limitation of Liability
Newton Learning is not liable for decisions made based on AI-generated content, including but not limited to lesson plans, generated worksheets, behavioral interventions, or reading level placements. All educational and clinical decisions must be made by qualified professionals.
Termination
Either party may terminate the service relationship at any time. Upon termination, your data will be retained for 60 days and then deleted unless a longer period is required by law.
FERPA (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act)
Newton Learning operates as a School Official under FERPA (34 CFR § 99.31(a)(1)). This means:
Newton Learning does not require parent consent for teachers to use the platform, as we operate under the FERPA "school official" exception. However, if any student-identifiable data is shared externally, schools must obtain proper FERPA-compliant consent.
COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act)
Newton Learning is a teacher-facing tool. Students do not create accounts or directly interact with our platform. All student data is entered and managed by the supervising teacher or administrator. As such:

If your district requires a specific state addendum to our DPA, please reach out directly.
