Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to Steletta! We provide a K-8 test preparation application that uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to help students practice for tests and receive personalized study plans. Your privacy is our top priority. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and our commitment to protecting your data.

By using Steletta, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

2. Student Data & FERPA Compliance

When our Service is used by a school or district ("School"), we act as a "School Official" under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). We are committed to protecting student "education records" in accordance with FERPA.

• We collect and process student data only for the legitimate educational purpose of providing our Service, as directed by the School.
• The School maintains control over the use and maintenance of its student education records.
• We will not use any student data for targeted advertising or any purpose other than providing the educational services contracted by the School.

3. Information We Collect

We collect information in the following ways:

• Information You Provide: When a parent, guardian, or school signs up for Steletta, we collect account information. When signing in via a third-party service like Google or Clever, we receive the information authorized by that service. For Clever, this includes a teacher's name, email, and class roster, and a student's name and unique Clever ID.
• Student Information from Clever: We do not receive student email addresses from Clever, nor do we collect them independently from students later. Our students are only identified by their name, grade, and unique Clever ID as provided by the teacher's roster.
• Information from Your Use of Steletta: We collect data related to test preparation, such as answers to questions, test scores, interactions with our AI, and personalized study plans.
• Technical Information: We may collect persistent identifiers like an IP address or browser type for internal operations, such as security and service functionality.

4. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for one primary purpose: to provide and improve the Steletta service. This includes:

• Creating and managing your account.
• Delivering tests and generating personalized study plans.
• Providing AI-powered help during your tests.
• Communicating with you about your account or our services.
• Ensuring the security and stability of our application.

We will never sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes.

5. Children's Privacy (COPPA Compliance)

Steletta is a service for K-8 students, and we are committed to full compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

Parental Consent

We obtain verifiable parental consent before collecting personal information from a child under 13. When a parent or guardian purchases a subscription, their use of a credit card or other payment method serves as this verification. By completing the transaction, you certify that you are the parent or guardian and you provide your consent for us to collect and use your child's information as described in this policy. When a School uses our service, we rely on the School to provide consent on behalf of parents for educational purposes.

Information We Collect from Children

We only collect information that is reasonably necessary for a child to participate in our educational activities. This includes the information listed in Section 3, such as account details, usage data, and technical information.

Parental Rights

Parents and legal guardians have the right to:

• Review the personal information we have collected from their child via their account dashboard.
• Request that we delete their child's personal information. Schools and districts may also request data deletion for their rosters by contacting us directly. We will process verified deletion requests within 30 days.
• Refuse to permit further collection or use of their child's information.

You can exercise these rights by accessing your account dashboard or by contacting us directly. To exercise your rights, please contact us at privacy@steletta.com.
