2. PRIVACY.

Information We Collect


“Personal Information” is information that identifies you as an individual or relates to an identifiable individual. No student information is collected by MyGrades. MyGrades keeps a student’s username and password in Local Storage Objects (LSOs) on their device to speed up future authentication, but no data ever leaves the device for servers accessible by MyGrades.

Tracking Technologies


Cookies, Beacons, and other Similar Technologies: Technologies such as cookies, beacons, tags and scripts are used by MyGrades. These technologies are used to make it easier for you to navigate our app and to store your password so you don’t have to enter it more than once.

Local Storage Objects:
We use Local Storage Objects (LSOs) to store your username and password for a quicker login experience.

Third Party Service Providers
