Privacy Policy

Everything you need to know about using The Modern Schooler.

Last updated: July 1, 2026

The Modern Schooler (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates themodernschooler.com, a curated curriculum review platform for homeschool families. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how we collect, use, and safeguard your information.

By using our website, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

Information you provide directly:

  • Name and email address when you create a free account
  • Reviews and ratings you submit for curriculum listings
  • Messages you send through our contact form

 

Information collected automatically:

  • Browser type and device information
  • Pages visited and time spent on the site
  • IP address and general location (city/region level only)
  • Referral source (how you found our site)
  • We use standard analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to collect this data in aggregate form to improve our website.

We use the information we collect to:

  • Create and manage your account
  • Display your submitted reviews on the site
  • Send you account-related emails (password resets, review confirmations)
  • Send our newsletter or updates, if you opt in
  • Improve our website and listing database
  • Respond to your questions or support requests

 

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. Ever.

When you submit a review on The Modern Schooler, that review becomes publicly visible on our platform. Your display name (as set in your account) will appear alongside your review. You may edit or request deletion of your reviews at any time by contacting us.

Our website uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to keep you logged in, remember your preferences, and collect anonymous analytics data. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some features of the site may not function properly without them.

Our curriculum listings may include links to publishers’ websites and external resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those external sites and encourage you to review their policies separately.

The Modern Schooler is a platform designed for parents and adult homeschool educators, not for children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 13. If you believe a child has submitted information to our site, please contact us immediately and we will remove it promptly.

We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. Our site uses SSL encryption (the padlock in your browser bar). However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

You have the right to:

  • Access the personal information we hold about you
  • Correct inaccurate information
  • Request deletion of your account and associated data
  • Opt out of marketing emails at any time (via the unsubscribe link in any email)

To exercise any of these rights, email us at themodernschooler@gmail.com.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
