We believe that protecting the privacy of all people is of paramount importance. Protecting the privacy of children is especially important.

For account holders of student accounts we only collect a Pseudonym (nick name), username, and password to login to our services. This information is never shared or publicly displayed. Our Service does not address anyone under the age of 13 ("Children") as parents must create and maintain the account.
We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your Children has provided us with Personal Data, please contact us. If we become aware that we have collected Personal Data from children without verification of parental consent, we take steps to remove that information from our servers.
We are proud supporters of the Student Privacy Pledge. Our collection and use of Student Records is governed by our contracts with the Schools, by our Privacy Policy, and by applicable privacy laws. For example, we work with Schools to help protect personal information from the Student's educational record, as required by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act ("FERPA"), and to protect the personal information of students under 13 consistent with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA"). If you have any questions about reviewing, modifying, or deleting the personal information of a School User accessing the Service through a School partner agreement, please contact your School directly.
When our Service is used by a School in an educational setting, we may rely on the School to provide the requisite consent from the child's parents for Anomaly Studios, LLC to collect information from a School User under the age of 13. Look at our Terms of service to see more details on consent for children to use our services
Teachers can create accounts on behalf of Students. When registering an account for a Student who is under the age of 13 (a "Child"), the Teacher represents and warrants that they or the educational organization they work for has proper permission to register the Child to use our services.
By registering and creating an account for your child, your child will not be able to share information, including photos, videos, audio, and location, publicly and with others. If your child shares information publicly, it would have to be outside of our system and it is strongly advised to not do so as it may be indexable by search engines like Google Search. We are not responsible for the content uploaded by any user.
Anomaly Studios, LLC will not serve personalized ads to your child, which means ads will not be based on information from your child's account.

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page.

We are committed to protecting your privacy, and have developed our privacy practices to align with applicable laws, including the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).
Anomaly Learning does not permit children under the age of 13 (a "Child" or "Children") to create an account without the consent and at the direction of a Parent or School. Please contact us at support@anomalystudios.com if you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child under 13 without parental consent so that we may delete the information as soon as possible.
When Anomaly Learning is used by a School in an educational setting, we may rely on the School to provide the requisite consent from the child's parents for Anomaly Learning to collect information from a School User under the age of 13.
Additionally, a Child User may use the Website if registered through certain educational organizations and through which education organization the legal parent and/or guardian of such Child User has consented to use the Services. Further, in certain instances, a Child User may use our Service via a third party application that integrate into or with the Services. A Child User that has registered through such external educational organizations, third party applications, or Teachers will only be permitted to use the Service for so long as Anomaly Learning reasonably believes that such access has been consented to by the Child User's parent or guardian.

If you are a school, district, or teacher, you represent and warrant that you are solely responsible for complying with COPPA, meaning that you must obtain advance written consent from all parents or guardians whose children under 13 will be accessing the Services. When obtaining consent, you must provide parents and guardians with these Terms, and our Privacy Policy
You must keep all consents on file and provide them to us if we request them.

If you're agreeing to these Terms on behalf of an organization or entity (for example, if you're an administrator agreeing to these Terms on behalf of your district), you represent and warrant that you are authorized to agree to these Terms on that organization or entity's behalf and bind them to these Terms. You also certify that you are legally permitted to use and access the Services and take full responsibility for the selection and use of and access to the Services. This Agreement is void where prohibited by law, and the right to access the Services is revoked in such jurisdictions.
The only Children's Personal Information we require is your parent's email address so we can initiate a parental consent process, as well as non-personal information such as your screen name and password.
We only collect personal information through the Services from a child under 13 where that student's school, district, and/or teacher has agreed (via the terms described in the following paragraphs) to obtain parental consent for that child to use the Services and disclose personal information to us or where the parent or legal guardian of a child has signed the child up to use the Services.
We do not disclose any other information about students, and students assume full responsibility for the disclosure and use of any other personal information the Student chooses to disclose to any User on the Sites, which at all times shall be subject to the terms of our Privacy Policy.
We will never share Education Records with third parties except: as directed by a user (i.e., teacher sharing with another teacher or parent); or to our service providers that are necessary for us to provide the Software, as stated in our Privacy Policy.
In cases where you have authorized or registered another individual, including minor children under the age of 13, to use your account, you are fully responsible for the online conduct of such person, controlling that person's access to and use of the Sites and Services, and the consequences of any misuse by that person.

About Us
Hi, it's Josh and Ruth!
We are so glad you stopped by. We are educational practitioners and specialists and partner with educational institutions to help bring transformational learning experiences where they matter most.
"We help teach students to be dreamers, thinkers and doers."
Firstly, we know that teaching is hard on multiple levels.
Getting the "light bulb" to turn on and stay on for students is not easy.
When talking with teachers, this is the type of feedback we hear from them. We commonly hear the following three themes.
Furthermore, there are other common challenges that make teaching and learning even more challenging. We have found these additional challenges fall into one or more of the following five categories.
003 - Continue Programming your Character

The process involves copying and pasting the script into cloud-based production tools.
High-end computers are not necessary as most of the heavy lifting is done in the cloud.
The method also automates the creation of slide decks in tools like PowerPoint or Canva.
Step-by-Step Process Walkthrough 2:48
Josh mentions that he will walk through each part of the process in the following sections.
The detailed steps will provide a comprehensive understanding of method four.
The process aims to make content creation more efficient and less time-consuming.
Josh emphasizes the importance of understanding each step to effectively implement the method.
Locking and Unlocking Content
After completing this video, viewers will understand how to lock and unlock class content by adjusting login and payment requirements. They will learn how to make classes accessible only to logged-in users, and optionally require payment for access. The video demonstrates how to easily update these settings for any class using a straightforward interface. By the end, users will be able to control who can view or participate in class content based on their login and payment status.
Following are the key things you will be able to do after you watch this demo:
Locking and Unlocking Content Overview 0:10
Josh Lomelino explains the purpose of the demo, which is to demonstrate how to lock and unlock content.
He mentions that content can be hidden or made accessible only to logged-in users, with additional conditions like requiring payment.
The process involves managing access at the class level, where each class contains units, content items, and resources.
Josh emphasizes that the class itself needs to be modified to control access to its content.
Modifying Class Settings for Access Control 1:05
Josh demonstrates how to modify a class, using the example of the coding academy.
He sets "login required" to true to mandate that users must log in to access the class.
Josh explains the option to specify whether payment is required, either as a one-time payment or a recurring subscription.
He clarifies that if payment is not required, users can log in but do not need to pay, making the class free but still requiring a login.
Handling Payment and Access Permissions 1:57
Josh discusses the settings for blocking users without active payment.
If payment is not required, he sets this option to false to allow free access to logged-in users.
For paid classes, he sets this option to true to ensure that users must have an active payment to access the content.
He explains that the system checks if the payment is up to date, especially for recurring payments within the subscription period.
Finalizing and Applying Access Settings 2:31
Josh concludes by explaining that once the changes are applied and submitted, users will need to adhere to the new access settings.
He reiterates that these settings control whether a login is required and if payment is necessary.
The process allows for managing various access permutations through a simple user interface.
Josh emphasizes that these settings will be enforced when users attempt to access any content within the modified class.
