Privacy Policy

Introduction

Welcome to Classteam! We are committed to protecting the privacy and security of our users. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, store, and protect personal data in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Who We Are

Classteam is an educational platform provided by Cta Classteam Private Limited, acting as a Data Processor for K-12 schools, higher education institutions, and companies (collectively referred to as 'Organizations'), which act as Data Controllers. Our platform enables Organizations to manage student and teacher interactions.

What Data We Collect

  • Basic User Data: First Name, Last Name, Email Address, Phone Number (optional).
  • Authentication Data: Passwords (encrypted), Device ID.
  • Educational Data: Courses, Attendance, Grades (future implementation).
  • User Activity Data: Comments, Posts, and Interaction Logs.
  • Tracking Data: Google Analytics and Firebase event tracking.
  • AI Interaction Data: Questions asked to AI agents, AI-generated responses, classroom context, and interaction timestamps.

How We Collect Your Data

  • Organizations add students and teachers to the system.
  • Users log in using credentials sent to their registered email.
  • Platform usage is tracked through Google Analytics and Firebase.
  • AI data is collected when users interact with AI agents through chat or scheduled tasks.

Why We Process Your Data (Legal Basis)

  • Contractual Necessity: To provide learning services to Organizations.

User Rights & GDPR Compliance

As per GDPR, users have the following rights regarding their personal data:

  • Right to Erasure: Request data deletion (subject to the policies of the Organization managing the account).
  • Right to Data Portability: Download a copy of personal data.
  • Right to Restrict Processing: Limit how personal data is used.

Since Organizations act as Data Controllers, Classteam operates as a Data Processor. This means:

  • When a user requests account deletion or data access, Classteam forwards the request to the respective Organization managing the user’s account.
  • The final decision on access, correction, or deletion of data is made by the Organization.
  • Classteam ensures all requests are securely processed and communicated to the appropriate Organization.
