A Student Account can only be set up through an Educator Account. Word Bank Universal does not require use of personally identifiable student information. Personally identifiable data for student accounts is solely used for educational purposes by the student and the student’s educational institution.
Student information is controlled by Educators and the educational institution. Data can be printed, viewed and removed by Students’ Educators. Upon request from the educational institution, all Student Account data will be deleted or corrected as quickly as possible - not to exceed 30 days. In the event that a Student is removed from or graduates from an educational institution, the Student can choose to obtain a Personal Account, in which case their data will be maintained under their own Personal Account.
