LICENSING: Home Subscriptions:
We know that nobody really reads these, so well break it down for you. Despite all the legal talk and restrictions below, we at Madcap Logic want you to enjoy Creativity Express. We really do. We hope you, your children and/or your students all explore, learn, and create. We just have a few rules.
Here's what you can and can't do with home subscriptions:
For Children: Each child has a separate account login, and it's theirs and theirs alone. They can use it at home, at a friends house, in a summer program, or basically anywhere. They just can't hand it off to their friend(s) or have someone else use it to teach another class. It's theirs and theirs alone when it comes to logging in.
For Parents: It's simple. You can't share. You can't use your child's account to teach in a classroom setting, or give it to another teacher for their classes. This is not a whiteboard account, it is for a single child at home.
For Teachers: Unless you are strictly using this account at home with your own child, you are not eligible to purchase this license. We've done our very best to keep our prices affordable for both parents and teachers, so please be respectful of our terms. You don't expect to work for free*, and our employees can't either. So please be respectful of our terms.
* Note: If by chance you do work for free, please let us know - we have positions available!
Why should you care? You may not think it matters, but if you cheat on licensing terms and violate copyright laws you put creative people out of business. That goes for music and movies too. If you want to continue to enjoy our work and allow us to produce more content, you need to play by the rules. Its that simple.
One last detail:
By logging into your Creativity Express account for the first time you agree to the terms and conditions set forth by Madcap Logic. The terms of service can be found on the Madcap Logic website at http://www.madcaplogic.com/terms.php.
Once you place your order, a Welcome Letter will arrive via email. Our orders are not automated, but we generally have our customers up and running within a few hours, 1-2 days at the most. The Family Four Pack enables one Parent account to create and monitor up to four Children. Each Child's account will last one year from the date of first login.
At Madcap Logic we believe that children learn most effectively when there is a parent or teacher involved in the learning process. Also, the COPPA laws are strict when it comes to children being online. This means that you as the parent will set up your children's accounts.
Your Welcome Letter contains your Parent/Teacher account information, username and temporary password, and instructions for setting up your children's accounts.
