KidEduPrivacy Policy
Last updated: 11/2026
⚠️ This text was drafted by the development team and will be reviewed by legal counsel before a wide public launch.
KidEdu helps teachers and parents assign homework, remind kids to do it and schedule online classes. We try to collect as little data as possible, especially about children.
What we collect
- Adult accounts (teachers, parents, administrators): display name, email, password (stored hashed, never in plain text).
- Child accounts: display name, username and a PIN (stored hashed). Children do not need to provide an email, photos or location.
- Service data: the classes a child joins, assignments, progress, submissions (text, ticked checklists), teacher feedback, vocabulary sets and learning progress, class schedule, the notification inbox, and your chosen language and time zone.
- A device token for push notifications — only when push notifications are turned on.
- Technical server logs (IP address, browser type) for security and abuse prevention.
What we don't do
- No ads. We do not sell or rent data. We do not use third-party analytics or tracking tools in the app.
- The current version does not ask for photos, audio recordings, contacts or location.
Who can see the data
- A class teacher sees progress, submissions and schedule for the children in their class. A parent only sees data for the children linked to them. System administrators can view the account list to provide support.
- Online meeting links (Google Meet, Zoom, Teams or other) are visible only to class members and those children's parents; they are never included in notification text.
Children
- A child's account is created by an adult (a teacher or parent) who confirms they are a responsible adult. We recommend that the person creating the account make sure they have the consent of the child's parent or guardian as required where the child lives.
- Parents can ask to see, correct or delete their child's data at any time using the contact details below.
Sharing with third parties
- Data is stored on servers and a database operated or rented by KidEdu. When push notifications are on, short notification text is delivered through Expo's push service and Google/Apple (FCM/APNs). Online meeting providers operate under their own policies when you open a link.
Retention and deletion
- Data is kept while the account is active or as needed to provide the service. You can ask for your account and related data to be deleted; when an adult deletes a child's account, the child's progress is deleted too.
Security
- Connections are encrypted (HTTPS), passwords/PINs are hashed, sign-in and code attempts are rate-limited, and access is controlled by role (teacher, parent, student, administrator). No system is perfectly secure; please protect your password and PIN.
Your rights
- You may access, correct, export and delete your personal data, and withdraw consent. Contact us to exercise these rights.
Contact
- Contact your teacher/school or the KidEdu administrator. [Official contact details will be added here.]
