Last Updated: March 25, 2022
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing Discover Dairy. We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. When you visit our website www.discoverdairy.com, and use our services including our Discover Diary mobile app, (together “Discover Dairy Services”) you trust us with your personal information. We take your privacy very seriously. In this privacy policy, we seek to explain to you in the clearest way possible what information we collect, how we use it and what rights you have in relation to it.
This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect and use the data we receive for our Website and all Mobile Apps downloaded from stores such as Apple, Google, and Amazon. We hope you take some time to read through it carefully, as it is important, and it will help you make informed decisions about sharing your personal information with us. Please read our Terms of Service for detailed information about our Services and your legal obligations as well.
If there are any terms in this privacy policy that you do not agree with, please discontinue use of our Sites and our services. If you have any questions or concerns about our policy, or our practices with regards to your personal information, please contact us at info@discoverdairy.com.
1. WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?
We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us when registering and expressing an interest in utilizing Discovery Dairy Services such as the Discover Dairy Program and the Adopt A Cow© Program. The personal information that we collect depends on the context of your interactions with our programs. All personal information that you provide to us must be true, complete and accurate, and you must notify us of any changes to such personal information. The personal information we collect can include the following:
Publicly Available Personal Information. We collect first name, last name, username, email addresses, and other similar data.
Credentials. We collect passwords, password hints, and similar security information used for authentication and account access.
Student Data. We collect student names and track program usage for parent/teacher reporting.
Information automatically collected. We automatically collect certain information when you visit, use or navigate our site. This information does not reveal your specific identity (like your name or contact information) but may include device and usage information, such as your IP address, browser and device characteristics, operating system, language preferences, referring URLs, device name, country, location, information about how and when you use our Services and other technical information. This information is primarily needed to maintain the security and operation of our programs, for our internal analytics, and for reporting purposes.
Online Identifiers. Like many businesses, we also collect information through cookies and similar technologies. We collect tools and protocols, such as IP (Internet Protocol) addresses, devices, cookie identifiers, or others such as the ones used for analytics and marketing, and other similar data.
Discover Dairy Mobile App. The Discover Dairy Mobile App is a free app provided to educators to allow them to provide their students with an immersive experience connecting to the Discover Dairy and Adopt A Cow© Programs. No payment information is collected in association with this app. Our apps do not interact with any social media networks, but we may provide links to our own social media networks for the purpose of providing support and product information.
When you use the Discovery Dairy Mobile App, we collect your basic demographic information including first and last name, phone number, email address, school or organization, your role in the organization, mailing address, county, country, grades you teach, and number of students. This information is used to allow the app to optimize your experience to best meet your needs based on your demographics and will not be used for any other purpose.
The Discover Dairy Mobile App may also collect usage information to help improve the quality of our services and applications. This data is collected to evaluate the effectiveness of the App and make improvements when and where necessary. It will not be used for any other purpose.
The Discovery Dairy Mobile App offers the opportunity to register students for access to the app, connected with a teacher account. However, only names and age will be collected from the students.
This policy is restrictive in order to protect children while using apps. We do not knowingly collect any additional information from anyone under the age of 16 years old through the Discover Dairy Mobile App. Our philosophy is that children should not be exposed to dangers while playing games and parents shouldn’t have to worry if an app is collecting information about them. If you ever have a question about the privacy of your children, or yourself, while using our applications, please email us at info@discoverdairy.com.
If a parent or guardian becomes aware that a child under the age of 16 has attempted to register as a teacher and provides additional information other than their name and email address, please advise us by email at info@discoverdairy.com so we can rectify the situation.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Please read this section carefully. It affects your legal rights and remedies. By agreeing to these Terms of Service, you agree to resolve any dispute with us through binding arbitration and you waive you rights to a jury trial and to participate in any class action suit as set forth in this dispute resolution provision. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.
Agreement to Binding Arbitration
You and Discover Dairy agree that in the event of any claim, dispute, or controversy arising out of, relating to, or connected in any way with (1) the Services or (2) the breach, enforcement, interpretation, application, or validity of these Terms of service, which claim, dispute, or controversy will be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration, except as otherwise provided in these Terms of Service.
Initiating Arbitration
Contact us first. If a dispute arises between you and Discover Dairy, our goal is to learn about it and address your concerns. You agree that you will first notify Discover Dairy about any dispute you have regarding these Terms of Service. Most user concerns can be resolved through informal negotiations by contacting us at info@discoverdairy.com.
If the Parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, the Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. Either you or Discover Dairy may initiate arbitration proceedings. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (“AAA Consumer Rules”) then in effect, except as modified herein. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org. In order to initiate arbitration, a completed written demand (available at www.adr.org) must be filed with the AAA and provided to the other party, as specified in the AAA Rules.
Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. The arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available pursuant to applicable law and will not have the power to award relief to, against, or for the benefit of any person who is not a party to the proceeding. The arbitrator will make any award in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by either Party. Such award will be final and binding on the parties, except for any right of appeal provided for under the Federal Arbitration Act and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the parties for the purpose of enforcement. You or Discover Dairy may initiate arbitration in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, and in no other venue, unless the parties agree in writing.
If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be commenced or prosecuted in the state and federal courts located in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts.
If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
Jury Trial Waiver
You and Discover Dairy acknowledge and agree that we each are waiving the right to a trial by jury as to all arbitrable disputes.
Class Action Waiver
The Parties acknowledge and agree that any to the fullest extent permitted by law, we each are waiving the right to participate as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action lawsuit, class-wide arbitration, private attorney general action, or any other representative or consolidated proceeding. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons. If there is a final judicial determination that any portion of this Class Action Waiver is unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, (i) any class, collective, coordinated, consolidated, and/or representative claims subject to the unenforceable or unlawful portion(s) shall proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania; (ii) the portion of the Class Action Waiver that is enforceable shall be enforced in arbitration; (iii) the unenforceable or unlawful portion(s) shall be severed from this Arbitration Agreement; and (iv) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful portion(s) shall have no impact whatsoever on the enforceability, applicability, or validity of the Arbitration Agreement or the arbitrability of any remaining claims asserted by you or Discover Dairy.
Exceptions to Arbitration
The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; (c) any claim for injunctive relief; and (d) any individual claims of sexual assault or harassment occurring in connection with your use of the Services. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
