Data we collect

Basic identity
Student first name and grade level only. We do not require or store full names.
Learning progress
Scenarios completed, decisions made, badges earned, and simulation outcomes, used purely to personalise and improve the learning experience.
Platform usage data
Session times, feature interactions, and general engagement metrics (aggregated and anonymised) to help us improve the platform.
Parent & educator contact
Email addresses of parents and school administrators for account management, progress notifications, and support.

How we use data

  • Personalise and improve the AI-powered learning experience
  • Provide teachers and parents with class and individual progress reports
  • Develop better educational content relevant to Ethiopian and African contexts
  • Operate and maintain platform security and reliability
  • Send essential service notifications (account activation, PIN resets)

Data protection

  • All data encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest (AES-256)
  • No personal data shared with third-party advertisers or data brokers
  • No advertising or commercial profiling of students, ever
  • No data selling, licensing, or monetisation of student information
  • Data stored on secure servers via Supabase (enterprise-grade cloud)
  • Access logs and security audits conducted regularly

Child protection

Protecting children's privacy is our top priority. We follow COPPA-equivalent principles even though we operate primarily in Ethiopia where these are not legally required.

  • Parent or guardian consent is required for students under 13
  • We collect only the minimum data necessary for learning (data minimisation)
  • Student profiles use first names and grade levels only, never full names, photos, or addresses
  • School administrators control student account creation and can deactivate accounts instantly
  • Parents can view, edit, or delete their child's data at any time

Data retention

While active
All user data is retained and fully accessible while the account is active.
12 months inactive
Accounts with no activity for 12 consecutive months are automatically scheduled for deletion, with a prior email notification.
On request
Students and parents can request full data deletion at any time. We process deletion requests within 30 days.

Your rights
