SumoApps, operates the services offered on sumo.app (the "Sumo Apps Website"), including the Sumo Apps platform (the "Sumo Apps Platform"), and any associated mobile applications (the "Sumo Apps Apps") or products and services that Company may provide now or in the future (collectively, the "Service").

Protecting data privacy and security is a top priority for Sumo Apps. Our Privacy Policy and Student Data Privacy Addendum solidify the commitments that Sumo Apps and schools make to each other, including our security and privacy commitments. Capitalized terms not defined in this document, such as "Student Data", are defined in our Student Data Privacy Addendum. We regularly evaluate our policies and practices to improve security and to keep up with the latest practices of the security industry.


This document is designed to provide technical readers, such as Chief Information Officers or Chief Technology Officers at school districts, additional clarity and specifics about our security commitments. While this document is written for technology experts who often play a key role in assessing our policies, we recognize that data security is just as important to families, teachers, and students as it is to school officials. If you would like to find out more and access materials that are written to help you digest the more technical information, please reach out to our team at sup...@sumo.app


(HTTP over TLS, also known as HTTPS) which encrypt all data before it leaves the Sumo Apps Service's servers and protects that data as it transits over the internet. All of our Services are in Amazon Web Services (AWS) and served from either Cloudfront or Elastic Load Balancer (ELB). We use HTTP Strict Transport Security to ensure that pages are loaded over HTTPS connections and our TLS configuration receives an A+ from Qualys SSL Labs.


Student Data is stored at our Service Provider, AWS, and the following applies to their technical and organizational measures. In addition, we secure decentralized data processing equipment and personal computers. All personally identifiable information is encrypted at rest using modern encryption algorithms. In AWS S3, we use AES256 with AWS managed keys, in Aurora (MySql) we use AES-256 with customer managed keys and in Redshift we use AES-256 with AWS managed keys. Additionally, we use MongoDB with AES-256 with keys managed by AWS..


The Sumo Apps Services use AWS, to host the infrastructure. AWS undergoes strict ongoing security assessments from external audit firms to ensure compliance with security standards including ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS Level 1, and FISMA. See for more details.


Network access to the Sumo Apps Services infrastructure is highly restricted. AWS hosted infrastructure resides in a dedicated Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) which is designed to ensure that only authorized traffic over approved ports is allowed. We use ThreatStack to monitor for suspicious activity.


We have a data backup and recovery capability that is designed to provide a timely restoration of the Sumo Apps Services, with minimal data loss, in the case of catastrophic failure. These backups are encrypted and stored in multiple availability zones. Additional technical and organizational measures to ensure that Student Data are protected against accidental destruction or loss (physical/logical) include:


Note: Student Data is stored at our Service Provider - currently AWS - and the above applies to their technical and organizational measures as well as any other relevantService Providers, such as MongoDB. In addition, we have a disaster recovery plan in place.


Technical and organizational measures to prevent unauthorized persons from gaining access to the data processing systems available in premises and facilities (including databases, application servers and related hardware), where Student Data are Processed*, include:


Access to the Sumo Apps Services infrastructure is highly restricted. We limit access to individuals who need access to do their jobs such as engineers, data scientists, product managers, and support personnel. All access to our infrastructure is logged. All access to our infrastructure requires the use of strong passwords and multifactor authentication.


Technical and organizational measures to ensure that persons entitled to use a data processing system gain access only to such Student Data in accordance with their access rights, and that Student Data cannot be read, copied, modified or deleted without authorization, include:


Technical and organizational measures to ensure that Student Data cannot be read, copied, modified or deleted without authorization during electronic transmission, transport or storage on storage media (manual or electronic), and that it can be verified to which companies or other legal entities Student Data are disclosed, include:


Sumopaint has web-based "paint" features similar in some respects to Pixlr.[4] It was originally created in 2008 by Sumo Limited.[5] Sumopaint has many of the same tools and features as Photoshop but is geared more towards illustration, whereas other software such as Photoshop is more suited for heavy image editing.[6][7] It has been used to teach students how to edit images.[8] Like Photoshop, it has layering capability, image adjustment tools such as changing the color balance, options for blending images, shadows and bevels, filters such as sharpening and blurring.[9]Reviewer Kris Fong of MacWorld magazine described some "quirkiness with certain tools and layers" and noted that it only works with certain file formats such as JPEG, PNG and GIF formats, and only allows users to save images in the JPEG and PNG formats,[9] as well as an internal file format called Sumo files.


There is a support community called sumo.app with community features, such as uploading, commenting on, and rating images, which are accessible to those with accounts. There is a paid professional version of the software called Sumo Pro which activates features such as a downloadable version of the software.


Sumopaint operates much like Photoshop. Kids can crop, color, or otherwise edit preexisting photos or draw a new picture with the imaging application. Like Photoshop, Sumopaint also offers a smudge tool, text tool, and eyedropper tool to help users match colors in different parts of an image; users can also adjust the hue levels in a photo or run an image through filters to create blurring, pixilation, and other effects.


The biggest difference between the two? Photoshop retails for several hundred dollars, and Sumopaint is available for free. (The manufacturer also offers two paid lifetime license versions with extra features and no ads for $9 and $19.) A few Sumopaint tools are only available in the paid versions; however, kids can access enough editing tools for free to create dozens of unique effects.


Kids should enjoy playing around with the tool, which they'll probably be able to figure out without much instruction. They'll feel in control of the process with dozens of image-altering options to choose from.


There's not much direct instruction on design principles, art history, or anything else academic. Kids will instead learn a few broader concepts, including certain artistic treatments' effect, expressing yourself, and being creative.


Sumopaint is great as an alternative to GIMP or photoshop style programs. It does have three main issues. The first is that it often thinks you have an area selected even when you don't and as such won't let you draw or edit outside of the supposed selection, we fix this by selecting the lasso tool and clicking anywhere in the image to de-select. Second the saving process is somewhat tricky, our computers do not recognize a .sumo extension as valid so it often gets deleted when students are titling work, and then wont open next class as it has no extension. Last is more a student issue than a sumopaint issue, students love the symetry tool and if not watched can really lose a lot of time with it, and overuse it as a tool. extra issue, it is not possible to edit text once you have left that specific text box.


Students met last week to fill out application forms and were informed that they would have to meet the three requirements before their application could be considered by the authorities in San Francisco.


Arrangements are now being made for distributing government-provided clothing to center residents with individual allowances to range from $2.15 to $4.61 per month and cumulative since date of arrival in camp, the WCCA office announced today.


Prior consideration is to be given members of the garbage and kitchen crews, followed by individuals assigned to other work crews. All applications will be taken up at offices to be established in each area.


Frank Tokujiro Okitsu of C-2-77 is a grandfather of 54 years, an unpretentious little man who works with a simple pocket-knife and other tools fashioned of ten-penny nails, tempered and sharpened in the heat of his little wood stove.


In his time, he has carved tiny Indian curios and souvenirs from ivory and fashioned cuff links and other knick-knacks out of gold nuggets for a jewelry shop in Skagway, Alaska, and has sketched charcoal portraits while working in a Seattle restaurant.


Once, when the snow drifted high in the winter of pre-World War I days, he and his elder brother moulded life-sized figures of polar bears, pelicans, penguins, etc., in front of their Seattle home. The next morning they found their snow figures splashed all over the Seattle papers, with little Mary Jane Okitsu perched atop a polar bear. The two brothers also contributed to many a community affair by designing costumes, shibai sceneries, curtains, and so forth.


For a while, when Frank Okitsu turned from urban lift to the soil on a Renton farm and sought satisfaction in spreading fields of mottled greens, his artistic talents lay dormant. But today, the carefully tended acres of lettuce and peas and berries are no longer his immediate environs. His hands are freed; his mind is unencumbered of agrarian cares. And so he sits in Area C, whittling, the latent talents of yester-year rushing forth again into his toil-worn hands.
