This Privacy Policy applies only to the Site, not to any other Zula, affiliate, or third party site that may be accessible from here.

INFORMATION THE COMPANY COLLECTS FROM YOU
Active Information Collection
Our policy is to collect the minimum amount of information necessary. The only personally identifiable information that Zula collects on the Site is a user's email address and, if different, the user's parent's email address. This information is collected only to respond to a user's request for general updates by email regarding the Site and to notify a parent of the user's request, respectively.
No other personally identifiable information is collected on the site. While we collect usernames and passwords for individual users, users should not use their real names as their usernames.
