This information will be deleted from our servers after 60 days.
Surveys and Questionnaire answers
From time to time and especially after a MindBuzz Camp, we may ask you to respond to questionnaires. We will ask you questions intended to help make MindBuzz better and improve you and your child’s user experience. This information will be accessible to researchers associated with MindBuzz, and the anonymized results may be presented as findings in their academic research.

This could be in the form of an advertisement on the Google search results page, or a site in the Google Display Network. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on someone’s past visits to the MindBuzz website. Of course, any data collected will be used in accordance with our own privacy policy and Google’s privacy policy. You can set preferences for how Google advertises to you using the Google Ad Preferences page, and if you want to you can opt out of interest-based advertising entirely by cookie settings or permanently using a browser plugin.
Data Security
MindBuzz will work to secure information submitted to us by our users. However, no data transmission over the internet is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee the absolute security of this data. You use the service at your own risk, and are responsible for taking reasonable measures to secure your account (such as keeping your password secret).
