Terms of Service
How MyLearningMaps works for you and your district.
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of MyLearningMaps at mylearningmaps.com and the same product when offered at standardsunpack.com (together, the "Service"). The Service is operated by McClintock Technology LLC ("we," "us," "our"), a Nebraska limited liability company.
By creating an account, signing in, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
We wrote these Terms in plain language. If anything is unclear, write us at support@mylearningmaps.com.
1. Who These Terms Apply To
These Terms apply to:
- District administrators who sign up a school district, invite staff, manage course catalogs, and view aggregate data.
- Teachers and other school staff who are invited into a district's account and use the Service to design curriculum.
- Anyone using the Service, regardless of role.
If your district has a separate written agreement with us — a master subscription agreement, a Data Processing Agreement, a state-specific addendum, or any other signed document — that agreement controls where it conflicts with these Terms.
2. Account Terms
Eligibility. You must be at least 18 years old and authorized by your school or district to use the Service on its behalf.
Accuracy. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information when creating your account, and to keep it accurate over time.
Security. You are responsible for keeping your password (or your
Google sign-in credentials) confidential. You are responsible for activity that
occurs under your account. Tell us right away at
support@mylearningmaps.com if you suspect unauthorized access.
One person per account. Each account is for one named person. Don't share credentials. Don't create accounts on behalf of another person without their permission.
District-level vs. user-level accounts. District administrators have additional rights — they can invite teachers, configure their district's course catalog, view aggregate progress within their district, and manage user roles. Teachers have rights scoped to the curriculum content they author and the resources their district makes available to them.
Joining a district. A teacher account is normally created by an invitation from a district administrator. If you create a personal account outside that flow, an administrator from your district may need to claim the account into their district before you can access district-specific content.
3. Acceptable Use
You agree to use the Service only for its intended purpose: K-12 curriculum design and standards work. Specifically, you agree not to:
- Upload, paste, or enter student personally identifiable information (student names, student IDs, IEP content, 504 content, behavioral notes, grades, attendance, parent contact information, or anything else that could identify an individual student) into the Service. The Service is not designed to receive student data, and your DPA with your district does not extend to us.
- Upload other people's personally identifiable information that you do not have authorization to share.
- Reverse engineer, decompile, scrape (other than your own district's data), copy, or attempt to derive the source code of the Service.
- Use automated tools (bots, scrapers, headless browsers) to access the Service without our written permission.
- Probe, scan, or test the security of the Service without our written permission.
- Use the Service to send spam, malware, or unlawful content.
- Use the Service in violation of any law, including export-control or sanctions law.
- Use the Service to harass, defame, or harm any person.
- Resell, sublicense, or commercially redistribute the Service or its outputs without our written permission.
- Misuse another district's content that has been shared with you for limited purposes.
If you discover a security vulnerability, we welcome responsible disclosure to
support@mylearningmaps.com. Please give us reasonable time to fix the
issue before disclosing publicly.
4. Subscription, Pricing, and Billing
The Service is currently in free beta for participating districts. Subscription pricing and billing terms will be added when paid plans launch.
5. Your Content and Ownership
You and your district own your content. Curriculum breakdowns, learning targets, assessments, vocabulary lists, instructional-material selections, and other content you author through the Service ("Your Content") belong to you and your district. We do not claim ownership of Your Content.
License to us. You grant us a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide license to host, store, transmit, display, back up, and process Your Content solely to provide and improve the Service for you. This license ends when Your Content is deleted from the Service, except that we may retain backups on the schedule described in our Privacy Policy.
Standards content. State academic standards are public-domain government content. Standards as published by state departments of education are not Your Content. Our presentation, organization, and integration of those standards is part of the Service.
HQIM lookups. When the Service displays high-quality instructional materials lookups (such as Nebraska's HQIM list), that data is sourced from public state databases. We do not claim ownership.
Our intellectual property. The Service itself — software, design, branding, the MyLearningMaps and StandardsUnpack names and logos, our documentation — is owned by McClintock Technology LLC or its licensors. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Service consistent with these Terms. We reserve all other rights.
Aggregated, de-identified data. We may use aggregated, de-identified data derived from use of the Service (for example, "X percent of teachers across all districts unpack standards in this order") for product improvement and reporting. Aggregated data does not identify any person, district, or piece of Your Content. We will not aggregate at a level that re-identifies a specific district without that district's permission.
6. Service Availability
We work hard to keep the Service running, but we do not promise uninterrupted access. The Service is provided "as is" and "as available."
We may:
- Perform scheduled maintenance, with reasonable advance notice when possible.
- Make changes, improvements, or feature changes at any time.
- Suspend the Service if needed to protect the Service, our users, or our infrastructure.
We do not currently offer a written service level agreement (SLA). Districts requiring an SLA may request one in their written agreement with us.
7. Disclaimers
To the fullest extent permitted by law:
- The Service is provided "as is," without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, completeness, or uninterrupted operation.
- We do not warrant that the Service is error-free or that defects will be corrected.
- We do not warrant that any data displayed by the Service (including state standards content) is current, complete, or accurate, although we make reasonable efforts.
- The Service is a planning and design tool. Decisions you make about curriculum, instruction, assessment, or compliance are your decisions, not ours.
Some jurisdictions do not allow disclaimers of implied warranties; in those jurisdictions, the disclaimers above apply to the maximum extent permitted by law.
8. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law:
- We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, including lost profits, lost revenue, lost data, business interruption, or loss of goodwill, arising out of or relating to the Service, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
- Our total cumulative liability arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms is capped at the greater of (a) the fees you paid us for the Service in the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the liability, or (b) one hundred US dollars ($100).
- Nothing in this section limits liability for fraud, willful misconduct, or any liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
9. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless from claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to (a) your use of the Service, (b) your violation of these Terms, (c) your violation of any law or third-party right, or (d) content you uploaded that you should not have uploaded (including any student PII uploaded in violation of Section 3).
If your district has a written agreement with us that addresses indemnification differently, that agreement controls.
10. Termination
By you. You may stop using the Service and delete your account
at any time. Email support@mylearningmaps.com to request account
deletion. District administrators may delete an entire district account.
By us. We may suspend or terminate your account if (a) you materially violate these Terms, (b) you engage in conduct that risks the Service or other users, (c) we are required to do so by law, or (d) we discontinue the Service. We will give district administrators at least 30 days' written notice before discontinuation when reasonable.
Data export window. When an account is closed, we offer a 30-day window for the district to export Your Content. After 90 days, Your Content tied to closed accounts is deleted, as described in our Privacy Policy.
Survival. Sections that by their nature should survive termination — including sections on intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, governing law, and miscellaneous — survive.
11. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms as the Service evolves. When we do:
- For minor wording changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top.
- For material changes — changes affecting fees, your rights, our liability, or how the Service operates — we will notify district administrators by email at least 30 days before the change takes effect, and post a notice on the Service.
Your continued use after the effective date of an update means you accept the updated Terms. If you do not accept them, write us and we will help you close your account and export your data.
12. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Nebraska, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules.
Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Wayne County, Nebraska (the LLC's home county), and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.
If you are using the Service on behalf of a public school or school district, nothing in this section is intended to override sovereign immunity, state procurement law, or state-specific governing-law requirements that may apply to your district. In a conflict, your district's required terms control to the extent legally required, and the rest of this section remains in force.
13. Miscellaneous
Entire agreement. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any signed agreement between you and us, are the entire agreement between us about the Service. They replace any prior agreement on the subject.
Severability. If any part of these Terms is held unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.
No waiver. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later.
Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a corporate transaction, with notice to district administrators.
Notices. We give notice by email to the address on file for your
account or your district administrator. You give notice to us at
support@mylearningmaps.com.
Force majeure. Neither party is liable for delay or failure due to events beyond reasonable control (natural disasters, network outages, government action, labor disputes, and similar).
Headings. Section headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation.
