Privacy Policy

TLDR – For our main ImaginGO Application, we only collect your email address for login and to send the occasional communication email. We collect your first and last name to personalize your ImaginGO experience. Our focus is on fostering and advancing Creative Thinking, not on selling or manipulating your data so we do not deal with third party data harvesters or data management companies.

Think of ImaginGO as a “read only” application. We only display creative exercises that teachers can use to teach Creative Thinking in their classrooms. We do not collect or write personal data to our servers and there is no communication and sharing of information between users on the ImaginGO system. In other words there are no profiles nor social components. 

On September 10th, 2023, we implemented Google Analytics on www.ImaginGO.com to understand user behavior – “Usage Data”. No specific user data is collected. Read about Google Analytics.

Account Creation

ImaginGO has two products: The main ImaginGO Application and The Free Version

Main ImaginGO Application 
The main ImaginGO Application is a paid version with full content and access to the Creative Thinking material. Accounts are created through the ImaginGO website, accessed via SSO or created by the ImaginGO Admin. 

SSO Access
ImaginGO uses Auth0 from Okta for all authentication functions including SSO for school systems. Auth0 supports the following systems and standards:

  • Active Directory/LDAP
  • ADFS
  • Azure Active Directory Native
  • Google Workspace
  • OpenID Connect
  • Okta
  • PingFederate
  • SAML
  • Azure Active Directory 
Passwords – Main ImaginGO Application

Passwords are only applicable when SSO is not used (passwords with SSO are , of course, managed by the third party connecting to ImaginGO). Account passwords are user-created and managed in both situations where a user created an account via the ImaginGO eCommerce or the ImaginGO Admin created an account for a user. 

Password standards are set to strong. Users see this message when creating their passwords: “The password should be at least twelve characters long. To make it stronger, use upper and lower case letters, numbers, and symbols like ! ” ? $ % ^ & ).”


The Free Version
The Free Version of ImaginGO is not a full version of ImaginGO and is not connected, systematically, to the Main ImaginGO Application. Access to the Free Version is possible through social media logins as well as account creation via email. 

Passwords – The Free Version
ImaginGO is not responsible for the strength or management of passwords of social media logins when accessing our Free Version. When accounts are created with an email, strong password creation is required: “At least 8 characters, requires at least one uppercase, lowercase, number and special character.”
