Privacy
Site Privacy Policy
1. Scope of Privacy Policy; Changes to Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to all aspects of our Site as well as to information we may collect offline.
This Site may link to or incorporate websites or content hosted and served by others over which we have no control, such as third party websites, online properties, platforms, social media, or systems, which are each governed by the privacy policy and business practices of the third party. You understand and agree that Scholarly is not responsible for the security, privacy, or business practices of any third party.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we do, we will post the revised Privacy Policy on our Site and, in the case of any material change, update the “Last Updated” date at the top. The revised Privacy Policy will be effective upon the earlier of: (a) your acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy (for example, by agreeing when you create an account or login to an existing account, or by using or continuing to use our Site after the revised Terms have been posted); or (b) the “Effective Date” listed at the top of the revised Privacy Policy. If the Effective Date differs from the Last Updated date, we will make a link available to the prior version of this Privacy Policy during the intervening period.
2. Information We Collect
We collect information from you directly, automatically when you visit the Site, and sometimes from third parties. Some of this information may be considered "personal information" under various applicable laws. We consider information that identifies you as a specific, identified individual to be personal information (such as your name, telephone number, and e-mail address), as well as additional information, including IP addresses and cookie identifiers, where required by applicable law. And, if we combine information that we consider to be non-personal with personal information, we will treat the combined information as personal information under this Privacy Policy. In the limited circumstances in which we may process sensitive personal information as defined by applicable law, we process such information as permitted by and in compliance with applicable law. Note that we may de-identify personal information so that it is non-personal, such as by aggregating it or transforming it into information that does not identify you. We will treat de-identified information as non-personal to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
Information You Provide
Scholarly may collect personal information from you when you:
Create an Account on, Login to, or Interact with the Site. Scholarly may collect your name and email address and other information that you provide, such as a telephone number, when you register or login, update, or add information or content to your account. We may require you to create a username and password if you create an account, or we may enable other methods such as logging in through one of your existing social media accounts such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter (collectively, "Social Media Platforms") or your Apple ID. Cameo also collects certain information relating to any Social Media Platform account or Apple ID that you use to login to or link to your Scholarly account (such as your username, bio, and number of followers), although linking any such account to your Scholarly account or logging into Scholarly via such account is entirely up to you. We may store payment information (such as credit or debit card details) for future purchases on your account, as well as through third-party providers if you so choose. If you create an account using a Scholarly-provided referral link or code through one of our referral programs, or by clicking on an ad that takes you to our Site, we may also receive certain information about you based on your use of or interaction with the link, code, or ad.
Make a Purchase through the Site. Scholarly collects the information that you provide when you request a Scholarly Message or other offering, including, for example and as applicable, your name and email address, any mobile telephone contact number (of you or the recipient) you choose to provide, the name of the person or entity giving and receiving the purchase, and the details that you provide as part of your request. When you purchase merchandise, we also collect shipping and delivery information. Scholarly processes payment information you provide when you pay for a purchase. We collect information of the recipients that you provide to us to the extent necessary to provide the Scholarly offering, either as part of the content or for the transaction itself (for example, we share the recipient’s name and the details of the request with the applicable Scholarly "Scholar") or to deliver merchandise.
Participate in Sweepstakes, Contests, or Other Promotional Activities. Scholarly collects the information that you provide when you enter a sweepstakes, contest, or promotional activities (each, a "Promotion") through our Site. Each Promotion has its own terms and conditions or official rules, which you should review as they may contain other requirements (such as, allowing use of your name or likeness in advertising unless prohibited by applicable law).
Contact Us. Scholarly collects the information that you provide in connection with you contacting us, for example when you email our customer service team or fill out a form for us to contact you.
Provide Content to the Site. We collect information when you submit content to us, such as a video, question, answer, review, photo, email, text, social media post, or other communication (each, a "Submission") and, if you are a Scholar, when you submit "Scholar Content". Each Submission, whether submitted to our Site directly or through a social media platform, and all Scholar Content, is subject to the applicable Terms of Service. As a result, others may access it, use it, and share it in accordance with the Terms of Service.
Sync Contacts or Connect with Friends. If you choose to upload, sync, or import the contact information of your contacts from your device (such as your address book), or otherwise share such contact information with us, we will collect and store that information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. You represent that you have obtained the consent of your contacts to share this information with us. We may use this information to identify which of your contacts are users of the Site, to provide services to you, to help you find and connect with people you know, help others find and connect with you, and to customize the content we present to you and to other Site users.
Use Social Media with the Site. We collect information when you interact with our Site through any social media platform. For example, we may enable you to use certain of your existing social media platform accounts to create an account on our Site or "like" or "share" content from our Site. Doing so may allow us to collect (or the third party to share) information about you. Some of your information, such as your username, may be publicly displayed. We may also receive information about you if other users of a social media platform give us access to their profiles and you are one of their connections or "friends". In addition, we and the social media platform may have access to information about you and your use of our Site and the social media platform. The information we collect is subject to this Privacy Policy. The information that any third party collects is subject to its privacy practices (including whether it shares information with us, the types of information shared, and your choices about what may be visible to others).
Use the Site as a Scholar. When you use our Site to become or as a Scholar, we collect, in addition to information provided when you create your account, your name, email address, telephone number, and the social media usernames you provide, Scholarly Sessions and other offerings prepared by you, and other information relating to our relationship with you, such as payment or identity information. Scholarly’s payments to you are made through the third party payment provider selected by Scholarly. You should review the payment provider’s privacy policy before providing your personal information, as it is responsible for personal information (as a data controller if you’re in the UK or EEA) in its own right, and its privacy practices may vary from ours.
Apply for a Job with Scholarly. We collect the information you provide when you apply for a job with us (for example, through a "Jobs" link on our Site) or directly; this may include your name, contact information, employment history, educational background, any self-identifying information (such as veteran status, gender, and ethnicity) and other information you provide. Please note that your use of a third party tool or third-party applicant tracking system utilized by Scholarly (e.g., LinkedIn, Indeed, etc.) to apply is subject to the third party’s privacy policy.
Information from Third Parties.
We may also obtain information, such as contact details (for example, name and email address), country, IP address, purchase histories, marketing preferences, cookie information, hardware and software information and other technical information about you from third parties, such as other users of the Site who upload information or sync their contacts, analytics companies, social media platforms, and other third party business partners. For example, if you discuss becoming a Scholar through a third party, we may collect your name, email address, telephone number, and the social media usernames you provide relating to that relationship from the third party.
We and our third party business partners may collect information about your visits to and activity on our Site and other websites and services. We may combine that information with other personal information we have collected from or about you. We may share certain of this information with third party business partners for similar purposes as described below.
3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Cookies and Tracking.
When you visit our Site or otherwise interact with us or our content, we and third-party advertising and analytics companies and other third party business partners may use a variety of tracking and other technologies that automatically or passively collect certain information ("Usage Information").
We and third parties may use these technologies for a number of reasons, including to save your preferences for future visits, to our Site, keep you logged in between visits, to serve targeted advertising to you, and to provide you with improved services. If you sign up for our text messaging program, cookies may also be used to personalize your experience (e.g. send you personalized text messages such as shopping cart reminders). The information collected by us and the third parties we work with may include (but is not limited to): date and time of your visit to our Site; areas you visit within our Site; links that you click on within our Site, and content that you enter into fillable fields or forms on our Site (both while filling out the fields or forms and if/when you submit such information); websites or advertisements you visit, view, or click before or after visiting our Site; terms you entered into a search engine that lead you to our Site; IP address, mobile device identifier, or other unique identifier and usage information for the device used to access our Site; precise location data from your device, if you have opted-in to the collection of that information (you may be able to disable the collection of precise location data through the settings on the device used to access our Site, but your approximate location may remain available through its IP address or other information that we collect); device and connection information, such as browser type and version, operating system, and platform; and whether an email message we sent was opened and whether a link in the email message was clicked.
Methods We Use to Collect
The methods that may be used to collect Usage Information include the following:
Cookies and Local Storage. A cookie is a data file placed on a device when it is used to visit the Site or otherwise access our content. Certain web browsers and certain browser add-ons, such as Adobe Flash, may provide additional local data storage mechanisms that are used in a manner similar to cookies, and some of the content included on our Site may make use of this local storage. To get information about Flash and Adobe’s privacy choices from Adobe, click here. To get information about cookies from All About Cookies.org, click here. Cookies, Flash cookies, and other local storage devices may be used for a variety of purposes (for example, to identify your device when you revisit our Site, to recall your authentication information, to store information related to your navigation throughout our Site, or to enable certain features on our Site). Some cookies are essential to the functioning of the Site, and, without them, some features and services you have requested cannot be provided. If you disable cookies, adjust privacy settings on your device, restrict local storage, or otherwise limit these technologies, you may not be able to use some of our Site features.
Web Beacons. Small graphic images or other web programming code called web beacons (also known as "pixels", "1x1 GIFs" or "clear GIFs") may be included in our web pages and email messages. Web beacons may not be visible to you. Web beacons or similar technologies may be used for a number of purposes, including to count visitors to the Site, to monitor how users navigate the Site, to count how many email messages we sent were opened, and to count whether a link in an email message we sent was clicked.
Embedded Scripts. An embedded script is a programming code that is designed to collect information about your interactions with the Site, such as the links you click on. The code is temporarily downloaded onto your device from our server or a third party service provider, is active only while you are connected to the Site, and is deactivated or deleted after you are no longer connected.
Other Technologies. We may also use other technologies that collect similar information for security and fraud detection purposes.
"Do Not Track" Signals
Some Internet browsers may be configured to send "Do Not Track" signals to the online services that you visit. There is no consensus among industry participants as to what "Do Not Track" means in this context. Like many websites and online services, Scholarly does not currently alter our practices when we receive a "Do Not Track" signal from a visitor’s browser except as required by law.
4. How We Use Information

to send you marketing and transactional emails, text messages, and other communications where permitted by law (consent to receive automated marketing text messages is not a condition of any purchase);

5. How We Share Information
We share non-personal information, such as aggregated statistics and de-identified information, with third parties to the extent permitted by applicable law. Scholarly also shares personal information as provided below in more detail. We do not share personal information with any third party to use for its own marketing or promotional purposes without your consent.
Our Affiliates
We may share information with our affiliates in the future, as relevant, who use it for the same purposes for which we use it.
Third Parties Providing Services on our Behalf
We use third parties to perform certain services on our behalf, such as hosting the Site or Site features, providing website usage analytics, fulfilling orders, processing payments, sending email or other communications, providing marketing assistance and data analysis or enhancement, running Promotions, serving advertisements for our products and services, or performing other administrative services. We may share information about you with these third parties to allow them to execute, deliver, or improve the services that they provide for you and for Scholarly. Certain of these third parties may also use the information we share for their own purposes - for more information please see Section 7, "Your Choices."
Scholarly Students, Scholars, and Partners
If you submit a request for a Scholarly Message or other offerings on our Site, we may share information such as your name, username, and profile photo to the Scholar as part of that request. If you receive a Direct Message from another user of our Site, we may provide that other user a “read receipt” when you view their message. Scholarly does not control how Scholars or users of our products and services will use your information. You may delete your account; any update to the setting will impact future sharing but will not affect information that has already been shared. If you are a Scholar who signed up through a third-party partner or using the referral code of another Scholar, we may disclose certain information of yours to the third-party partner or Scholar who introduced you to us, including in connection with the services that the third-party partner is providing, to calculate and provide appropriate payment to the third-party partner or Scholar (for example based on the offerings you fulfill and your resulting earnings), and for the third-party partner or Scholar’s business purposes (for example, record-keeping and tax reporting). If you submit identity verification information as a Scholar, this information is provided to Stripe which is an independent controller of such data and will use such data as described in Stripe's Privacy Policy and Identity Terms. If you are a Scholar, we may also share certain information about your account and order activity on your public profile, leaderboards, or similar Site features, including information about fulfillment rates, account creation date, completed number of questions, length of responses, time to fulfill, and customer responsiveness.
Employment Applications
If you apply for a job with Scholalry or any of our subsidiaries or affiliates, we or our service providers may ask you to provide self-identifying information (such as veteran status, gender, and ethnicity) in conjunction with laws and regulations enforced by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and other regulatory agencies. Providing such self-identifying information is voluntary, but if you do provide such information, we and our service providers may submit that information to the appropriate government or regulatory agencies to fulfill reporting requirements and use that information to defend against employment-related complaints.
Universities and Academic Institutions
If you are a Scholar, we reserve the right to provide the contents of your application to universities to prevent cheating and plagiarism.
Sweepstakes, Contests, and Other Promotional Activities
If you participate in a Promotion, we may disclose your information to third parties or to the public in connection with conducting and administering the Promotion, for example, to select a winner, provide a prize, as required by applicable law (such as publishing a list of winners), or as permitted by the applicable terms and conditions or official rules of the Promotion.
Compliance Partners for NCAA Athletes
If you purchase a Scholarly Message or other offering from a Scholar who is an athlete affiliated with an NCAA member institution, we may share information about your purchase, including your name, the date and price of your request, and the date the request was fulfilled, with INFLCR, Inc., its affiliates, and the Talent’s NCAA member institution.
When You Request That We Share Your Information
We may share information when you request us to do so, for example, if you opt-in to receive a communication from a third party or if you engage with a social media platform or other third party application or feature through which information about you is shared.
Administrative Reasons, To Enforce and Protect Legal Rights
To the extent permitted by applicable law, we will disclose your personal information pursuant to a law, regulation, court order, or other legal request or process, such as disclosure to law enforcement or other government officials or agencies in connection with any investigation, for example of fraud, intellectual property infringement, or any other activity that is or may be illegal or may expose Scholarly, you, or another to legal liability. This disclosure may include legal requests from a jurisdiction outside of the United States when we have a good faith belief that the response is required by law, regulation, court order, or other legal request or process in that jurisdiction, affects users in that jurisdiction, and is consistent with internationally-recognized standards.
We will disclose your personal information when necessary to exercise, enforce, establish, or defend our legal rights. For example, we may review your account information in order to investigate allegations of hacking or a breach of the applicable Terms of Service. We will disclose your personal information to our legal and other advisors, consultants, and law enforcement or other government entities.
Protecting Others
We will disclose your personal information to third parties when we believe the disclosure is necessary to protect rights, property, or safety of another. For example, we disclose personal information relating to a Site account if we in good faith believe that a Site account is being used in ways that are harmful to another or contrary to the applicable Terms of Service.
Business Transfers
In evaluating or engaging in a sale of assets, merger, acquisition, reorganization, bankruptcy, or other transaction, we reserve the right to disclose, transfer, or assign your personal information and communications. By providing your personal information, you agree that we may transfer such information to the acquiring entity without your further consent.

Scholarly may work with third party network advertisers, ad agencies, and other advertising partners to serve Scholarly ads online, and with third party marketing partners to send you marketing materials or offer. We may use information we have learned about you to target ads and marketing to you and to allow third parties to target ads and marketing to you. We also use third party analytics providers to provide us with information regarding the use of the Site and the effectiveness of our advertisements. These third parties may set and access their own tracking technologies on your device (including cookies and web beacons), and they may otherwise collect or have access to information about you, including Usage Information. We and our third party advertising and analytics providers may collect personal information over time when you visit the Site or other online websites and services.
We may share personal information, as well as information that has been de-identified, aggregated user statistics, and Usage Information, directly or indirectly through third party business providers, with third party advertising companies, analytics providers, and other third parties, including for the purpose of serving you more relevant ads. We may retain third party providers to help us perform these tasks. For example, we may share personal information with third parties who combine and link information from Scholarly with information from other sources. These third party providers may then make non-personal information available to third party advertisers, including information about your interests and preferences, to enable them to serve you more relevant ads.
Some of these third parties may be members of the Network Advertising Initiative ("NAI") or Digital Advertising Alliance ("DAA") Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising. NAI and DAA each provide information regarding procedures for opting-out of targeted online advertising from participating companies. For information from NAI about opting out, click here.

For information from NAI about opting out on mobile devices, click here.
Scholarly uses Google Analytics. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to collect and analyze information about the use of the Site, report on activities and trends, and analyze and improve the effectiveness of our advertising. This service may also collect information regarding the use of other websites, apps, and online resources. For information about opting out of personalized advertising from Google, click here, and to download the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on from Google, click here.
We may run ads on online platforms such as Google, Meta, and TikTok. These companies may collect personal information when you use our Site, including your browsing and actions, IP address, and other digital identifiers, and may use this information a variety of purposes, such as serving content to you on their own platform, personalizing and targeting advertisements they show to you, measuring and providing analytics about how you engage with websites or ads, or for security or other purposes. You can learn more about how Google, Meta, and TikTok use your personal information through their respective privacy policies (Google, Meta, TikTok).
We may use Twilio to help provide text messaging services. When you provide a phone number to receive text messages from Scholarly, you consent to use of your personal data as described in Twilio's privacy policy, including to detect, prevent, or investigate security incidents, fraud, or abuse and misuse of Twilio’s platform and services.
If you are a resident of California, Virginia, or certain other US jurisdictions, please see our Supplemental Privacy Notice to Residents of California, Virginia, and Certain Other US Jurisdictions regarding additional rights you may have, including how to exercise your right to prevent the sharing or sale of your personal information.
Opting out through these mechanisms does not block all online advertising; you will continue to receive generic advertisements.
