Counsel-ready draft for a 13+ student learning resource.

Review Status

Terms of Use

Game Theory for High School provides educational lessons, scenarios, scoring, and practice activities. It is designed to support learning and discussion. It is not counseling, therapy, legal advice, individualized educational advice, or a promise of school credit.

Students may use the lessons for personal learning and classroom practice. Teachers and parents may use the materials in a classroom, advisory, tutoring, or family setting as long as source links and attribution remain visible. Users may not copy, resell, scrape, or publish the course materials as a competing product without written permission.

The scenarios are simplified educational examples. They should not be used to label, diagnose, pressure, or manipulate real people. The intended skill is better judgment: noticing incentives, checking information, protecting trust, and making repair possible.

Age, Permission, and Under-13 Guardrails

This resource is intended for students age 13 and older. Do not create a profile, submit an email address, or enter the prize drawing if you are under 13. If you are 13 to 17, you must have permission from a parent or legal guardian before providing an email address or entering the prize drawing.

If we learn that personal information was collected from a child under 13, we will delete it and disable the related entry unless legally required to retain limited records. A production launch should include an age-screening flow before any email collection and a parent-contact process for deletion, review, and consent requests.

• No open chat, public posting, direct messaging, or student-to-student profile pages are enabled in this prototype.
• No behavioral ads, ad networks, or sale of student personal information should be enabled without a separate privacy review.
• Any production analytics should be privacy-minimized, documented, and reviewed before launch.

Official Prize Drawing Rules

No purchase necessary to enter or win. A purchase does not improve chances of winning. Void where prohibited.

1. Sponsor

Sponsor: Game Theory for High School, c/o [legal entity name, entity type, mailing address, phone, and email to be completed before launch]. Counsel should confirm that the sponsor structure is permitted for Washington residents.

2. Promotion Name

The promotion name is "Game Theory for High School School-Tech Prize Drawing." In states where a different legal label is customary, Sponsor may describe the promotion as a sweepstakes, promotional contest of chance, giveaway, or prize promotion, provided the final rules remain accurate and compliant.

3. Eligibility

Open to legal residents of the 50 United States and the District of Columbia who are 13 years of age or older at the time of entry. Entrants under the age of majority in their state of residence must have parent or guardian permission. Employees, contractors, officers, directors, agents, and immediate family members or household members of Sponsor are not eligible. The promotion is void where prohibited or restricted by law.

4. Entry Period

Begins at 12:00 a.m. Pacific Time on [start date] and ends at 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time on [end date]. Sponsor's server clock is the official clock for online entries. Mail-in entries must be [postmarked/received] by [date] at [address].

5. How to Enter

Course-completion entry: Complete the five school-scenario worksheets, save a first name and email address, confirm age eligibility and parent/guardian permission if applicable, and submit the entry form.

Alternate free method of entry: To enter without completing the course, send a postcard or letter with your first name, email address, age confirmation, and parent/guardian permission confirmation if under 18 to [AMOE mailing address], or use [AMOE online form URL]. Limit one entry per person regardless of entry method. No purchase, payment, subscription, school enrollment, credit card, bank account, shipping charge, delivery charge, or judging fee is required.

6. Prize

One winner will receive one MacBook Neo school laptop or a comparable school laptop selected by Sponsor if the named model is unavailable. Approximate retail value: [insert ARV before launch]. Prize is non-transferable. No cash alternative except at Sponsor's discretion. The promotion is not sponsored, endorsed, administered by, or associated with Apple Inc.; product names are used only to describe the prize.

7. Winner Selection, Odds, and Notification

On or about [drawing date], Sponsor or its administrator will select one potential winner in a random drawing from all eligible entries. Odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received. The potential winner will be notified by email at the address provided. If the potential winner is a minor, Sponsor may require parent or guardian confirmation before awarding the prize. Failure to respond within [number] days may result in disqualification and selection of an alternate winner.

8. Verification, Taxes, and Publicity

Sponsor may require eligibility verification, a signed release, tax documentation, and a parent/guardian release for a minor winner. Winner or winner's parent or guardian is responsible for taxes and any costs not expressly included. Sponsor will not use a minor winner's full name, image, school, voice, or detailed location in publicity without parent or guardian written consent.

9. Winner List

For a winner list, send a self-addressed stamped envelope to [winner-list mailing address] within [number] days after the drawing. The public winner list should use privacy-minimized information, such as first name, last initial, city, and state, unless counsel requires a different format.

10. General Conditions

Sponsor may cancel, suspend, or modify the promotion if fraud, technical failures, legal restrictions, or other factors impair the integrity of the promotion. Sponsor may disqualify entries that are incomplete, automated, fraudulent, abusive, or inconsistent with these rules. Sponsor is not responsible for lost, late, incomplete, misdirected, delayed, corrupted, or undeliverable entries or notices.

11. Disputes

Subject to counsel review, these rules and any disputes will be governed by the laws of the State of Washington, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any arbitration, class-action waiver, venue, or small-claims language should be added only after counsel review, especially because minors may participate.

Privacy Notice

Current prototype: progress, selected theme, worksheet answers, correction score, first name, email, and age confirmation are stored in the user's browser local storage. Browser-only storage is useful for testing, but it is not sufficient for a live prize drawing because Sponsor needs secure entry records, duplicate-entry controls, deletion workflows, and audit logs.

Production launch: the site may collect first name, email address, age confirmation, parent/guardian permission confirmation for minors, selected theme, course progress, worksheet scores, entry time, IP-derived security logs, and device/browser data used for fraud prevention and operation. The information will be used to save progress, administer the prize drawing, prevent duplicate entries, contact a potential winner, respond to parent/guardian requests, and improve the educational resource.

Newsletter and scenario-help features may collect an email address, audience role, signup source, de-identified scenario text, permission confirmation, review status, page source, and timestamps. Scenario submissions should not include names, school names, usernames, exact locations, screenshots, contact information, medical details, discipline records, or other identifying information. A human should review any AI-assisted draft before it is sent or published.

• Do not sell student personal information.
• Do not use student data for behavioral advertising.
• Retain prize-entry records for [retention period, proposed: up to 3 years] or as required by law, then delete or de-identify them.
• Let parents or guardians request access, correction, deletion, or withdrawal of consent by emailing [privacy contact].
• Use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards for student data.
• List all production vendors before launch, including hosting, email, analytics, form storage, prize administration, and voice/video providers if used.

Quotes, Reviews, and Social Proof Policy

The site may use quote-style cards to make the experience feel welcoming. Current demo quote cards use fictional names and roles as prototype copy. Until real pilot feedback is collected, those cards should be treated as illustrative product copy, not testimonials from actual users.

• Do not publish fabricated testimonials or imply that a quote came from a real student, parent, or teacher unless it did.
• Keep written permission records for every real quote used in marketing or on the site.
• For minors, get parent or guardian written consent before publishing a quote, name, image, school, voice, or other identifying information.
• Disclose any material connection, discount, prize, payment, or other benefit given in exchange for a review or quote.
• Do not edit a quote in a way that changes the speaker's meaning or makes results seem typical without evidence.
