Your child's learning is the most private data there is. This page explains, in plain language, what we hold, what we do with it, and the lines we will not cross.
Unschooling Academy is operated by Lionheart Collective Inc. ("we", "us"), a British Columbia company. This policy covers the Unschooling Academy website and app (the "Service"). If you have any question about it, email [email protected].
Unschooling Academy is a tool for parents and guardians to keep a private record of their own child's learning. Children do not create accounts and do not interact with us directly. As the account holder, you control your child's information and provide any consent on their behalf.
We ask for as little as possible, and only what the Service needs to work for you.
We use your information for one purpose: to provide the Service to you about your own child — to store your captures, map them to learning outcomes, show you the picture, and generate the records and reports you ask for. That is all. We do not use your data for advertising, and we do not sell it.
If you use voice to capture a moment, transcription is handled by your device's own dictation. Depending on your device and settings, that feature may send the audio to Apple or Google to convert speech to text. We never store the audio; only the words you see are saved to your account. Fully on-device transcription is a planned upgrade. You can always type instead.
The Service includes an optional "Ask" chat that answers general curriculum and how-to questions using an AI model. It is given only general curriculum information to work with. It never receives your child's records. More broadly: your child's learning data is never sent to any AI, ours or anyone else's, and is never used to train any AI model.
We may publish aggregate, de-identified numbers about how well the Service works (for example, how many families keep a record), with small groups suppressed so that no individual child or family can be identified. This never includes personal information.
Your data is stored on Cloudflare infrastructure. Passwords are stored only as secure hashes, access is controlled by your login, and each child's record is walled off to the account holder and the people they have invited.
We keep your information while your account is active. When you delete a child or your account, that data is removed. If you stop using the Service, you can ask us to delete your account at any time.
The Service is used by parents and guardians, not by children. We do not knowingly collect information directly from a child. Because you are recording information about your own child, you are responsible for the content you enter, and you consent on your child's behalf. If you believe a child's information has been provided to us improperly, contact us and we will address it.
If we change how we handle your data, we will update this page and the date at the top. Material changes will be communicated in the app or by email.
