General Website

Personal information includes your name, position, e-mail address, school name, address, phone number, or payment information if you buy something.

The only way we know you is when you introduce yourself in an email, place an order, submit a testimonial, request information or customer service, or sign-up for a newsletter or in-service training.

By submitting a testimonial (including any photo of yourself), you permit RRF to share it with others on our websites, its social media sites, in Teacher Guides, and in Rowland Reading Foundation promotional material.

In the General Website, Rowland Reading Foundation does not knowingly gather any information from children under the age of 13. Rowland Reading Foundation does not sell products to children. We sell educational materials for children to adults. If someone under the age of 13 provides us with personal information, we ask that the child's parent or guardian contact us and request removal of the information from our records, which we will promptly do.

We provide a link to our Privacy Policy on pages where personal information is collected.
