Common Sense Sub-Processor List
Welcome! We are committed to transparency and dedicated to protecting your privacy and handling the Personal Information we obtain with care and respect. Below you will find the names of the service providers Common Sense Media, Inc. ("Common Sense", "we", or "us") uses in connection with providing services to schools and for the provision of services through our main website (www.commonsense.org).
To fulfill our mission, we provide certain products and services to schools, and to end-users, directly, through our websites and apps using vendors that process personal data on our behalf to help us provide those products and services. These vendors are called third-party service providers, critical vendors, or subprocessors. We act as controllers of the personal information collected in this context and our data practices are fully described in our Privacy Policy.
In addition, we act as service providers to schools and students in connection with our Digital Citizenship Curriculum and other similar offerings. As service providers, we are aware that schools and students may want to know which vendors with whom we contract to process their personal data for the products and services they use. For this reason, we have compiled a separate list of the subprocessors that regularly process personal data for products and services offered to schools, including additional information.
PLEASE NOTE:
We will provide updates as needed.
