The information we collect

Lyceum Institute of Teaching offers some service features that do not require users to create an account, such as browsing public tutor profiles or searching for questions and video answers in Ask an Expert. If you choose not to create an account, we collect information about your browser and device, including your IP address and browser version. However, we cannot link this information to an identifiable person unless you decide to create an account.

Creating an account with Lyceum Institute of Teaching requires providing personal information that we need to provide the Service. This may include:

Students and Parents:

For students and parents, Lyceum Institute of Teaching may collect personal information related to the documentation and payment for tutoring sessions, tutoring questions related to homework or studies, school information, and teacher feedback of a student (with the parent's consent for submission).
