Welcome to the public website of Sandy Hook Promise, a nonprofit organization created and led by several family members whose loved ones were killed on December 14, 2012, in the tragic shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, CT. Sandy Hook Promise’s mission is to educate and empower youth and adults to prevent violence in schools, homes, and communities. 
Sandy Hook Promise (also referred to throughout this document as “Sandy Hook Promise”, “we”, “our”, “us”) is comprised of two nonprofit corporations: Sandy Hook Promise Foundation and Sandy Hook Promise Action Fund. Two organizations allow us to fulfill our overall mission of protecting more children from gun violence, which includes researching and implementing evidence-based gun violence prevention programs in schools and youth organizations across the country; advocating for gun safety reform; and influencing legislators and engaging constituents in the legislative process to help build a safer future for all children.  
We intend these Terms of Use (“Terms”) to govern all aspects of your access to and use of the technology, products, and services offered by Sandy Hook Promise through its websites, mobile applications, and telecommunications services. In these Terms, we refer to all such Sandy Hook Promise resources as the “Sandy Hook Promise Platform” or just the “Platform”. We deliver many of the products and services on the Platform with the help of technology and service providers, including without limitation Navigate 360 Software, LLC (together, “Partners”).  
The Sandy Hook Promise Platform includes, for example, your access to and use of: 
Our websites at: 
Our Say Something Anonymous Reporting System (the “Say Something Anonymous Reporting System”), which includes: 
The Donate and Online Store pages of our Sites. 
By downloading the App, accessing the Sites, calling 844-5SAYNOW, and/or otherwise accessing the Platform, you indicate that you understand and agree to be bound by these Terms. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ALL THE PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS, YOUR OPTION IS NOT TO ACCESS OR USE THE Sandy Hook Promise PLATFORM.  
1. Our Platform’s Intended Purpose. Sandy Hook Promise’s nonprofit mission includes initiatives such as:
teaching students how to recognize and safely respond to warning signs, signals, and threats, especially in social media, from individuals who may want to hurt themselves or others and to “Say Something” to a trusted adult or use the Say Something Anonymous Reporting System to get them help; 
teaching students empathy and empower them to end isolation and violence through our “Start With Hello” and “Know the Signs” programs; 
empowering youth-led school clubs through the “SAVE (Students Against Violence Everywhere) Promise Clubs” to increase school safety and prevent violence;  
training educators, primary caregivers, leaders of community organizations to support and implement Sandy Hook Promise programs; and 
empowering advocacy for policies that protect children and schools from gun violence.  
The Platform provides a convenient way for individuals (whom we refer to in these Terms as “Users”, “you”, “your”, or “yourself”) to learn about and engage with Sandy Hook Promise’s programs and initiatives, in particular by providing access to our content, features, functionality, tools, solutions, products, and services (together referred to in these Terms as “Platform Content”). To be clear, Platform Content includes all information we incorporate into the Sandy Hook Promise Platform, including for example, data, text, messages, software, sound, music, displays, video, photographs, graphics, artwork, images, tags, as well as the design, selection, and arrangement thereof.
