Policies

Privacy Policy

TeachFlows (the "Service" and "Website") respects the privacy of all its online visitors. Confidentiality is always maintained, and no personal details such as addresses or phone numbers of students, teachers or school staff are ever given out to the public. This privacy policy is part of and must be read carefully in conjunction with TeachFlow's Terms and Conditions.

At TeachFlows, we prioritize student and teacher privacy in this ever-changing digital landscape. We understand that as parents, school administrators, and educators, protecting privacy and that of your students is crucial. Therefore, we have created this Privacy Policy in a simple and understandable way to outline our dedication to safeguarding privacy.

This privacy policy applies to the Website only and does not cover information collected on any third-party sites to which this Website links. You can read the entire Terms and Conditions by clicking on the 'Terms & Conditions' link at the top.

Your consent:

By visiting the Site and/or using the services offered on or through this Website, you acknowledge and accept the terms of this Privacy Policy and the User Agreement as they may be amended from time to time. This Privacy Policy applies to all of our online customers and visitors. If you disagree with the Terms and Conditions in their entirety, please do not use this Website.

Children's Online Privacy Protection

To protect children's online privacy, we don't automatically collect student's personal identifiable details unless teachers, schools or districts have opted into our analytics feature.

Additionally, only students above the prescribed minimum age by the law, which is around 13 years old in most jurisdictions, can access and create an account. If the TeachFlows team is notified of any account held by a student under the minimum age, it will be promptly deleted and the relevant parties will be notified.  

Teachers or educational institutions utilizing TeachFlows have the discretion to determine whether or not to collect student data. TeachFlows provides tools and features to support both data collection and non-data collection approaches, leaving the decision in the hands of educators.

When student data is provided, TeachFlows is committed to maintaining the highest standards of data privacy and security, as outlined in this policy. At any point, teachers and educational institutions can choose to stop the collection or request the deletion of previously collected data at contact[at]teachflows.com.

Use and Disclosure

Your information will be held in Australia. Protecting your privacy is very important to us. We encourage you to read this document and use the information in it to make informed decisions about the information you share with us and others. We assure you that we do not share your information with third parties for their marketing purposes.

Schools and districts can request hosting data in their country, which is only available on the TeachFlows Enterprise offering.

Your collected information will only be used or disclosed for the purpose for which it was collected (the primary purpose) or for a secondary purpose that an individual would reasonably expect. Secondary purposes may include our communication with you about us, our website or other business initiatives. If you do not wish to receive any more similar emails, click the 'unsubscribe' button at the bottom of the email, and we will not send you anymore emails. If you do not provide personal information to us, we may not provide you with services through the website.

We may disclose your personal information when required to do so by government authorities or otherwise as required or permitted by law to prevent or detect a crime. We also may disclose user information when we have reason to believe that someone is interfering with other customers or users of the Website or to protect our rights or anyone else that such activities could harm.

If one or more third parties acquire TeachFlows due to an acquisition, merger, sale, reorganisation, consolidation or liquidation, Personal Information may be one of the transferred assets. We may share your data with website hosting service providers that help us run the website or with our partners in Australia or outside Australia. By using the TeachFlows website, you consent to transferring your information outside your country, including to our United States servers.

Security

Account

You are responsible for the confidentiality of your username and password. You agree not to share this information with anyone else. You also agree to notify TeachFlows immediately of any unauthorised use of your username and password.

TeachFlows will use your username and password to identify you when you return to our website for using your paid subscription. If you forget your password, you may be issued a new password. Therefore, we highly recommend you change your password from time to time.

TeachFlows will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this section. If you don't access the account for more than one year, your account will be on hold to protect your privacy. In that case, you have to contact TeachFlows to release your account.

Internet and Third-Party Networks

When as an authorised user, you access the TeachFlows website, you are using it through the World Wide Web, the Internet or third-party networks or facilities that are beyond the control of TeachFlows. Accordingly, you as a user assume all risk and liability of your use of the World Wide Web, the Internet or any such third-party networks.

Information

We employ reasonable physical, electronic, and managerial security measures following the privacy statement to safeguard and prevent unauthorised access, use and/or disclosure of your personally identifiable information collected while joining the subscription.

We review our security systems and processes regularly to make any appropriate changes required. At any stage, if your personal information such as email or phone changes, then your account may not function properly. It is your responsibility to inform TeachFlows immediately of such changes. We will retain your information for a reasonable period or as long as the law requires.

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be secure. While purchasing an online subscription, all of your credit card information is transmitted in an encrypted form using Stripe's Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol. Whilst TeachFlows strives to protect your identifiable information, and we cannot ensure or provide any warranties in respect of the security of any information you transmit to us or obtain from our online products or services. While we take commercially reasonable measures to maintain a secure site and electronic communication, accordingly, the use of the TeachFlows website is at your own risk.

However, due to the inherent nature of the Internet as an open global communications vehicle, we cannot guarantee that information, during transmission through the Internet or while stored on our system or otherwise in our care. We take extreme care through implementing industry-standard security techniques such as an SSL certificate and our website and applications being hosted on Google Cloud Platform, one of the world’s most trusted and secure hosting provider.

Data Protection & Trust

We employ encrypted transmissions and firewalled storage to protect data safety.

Data Breach Protocols: Should the unforeseen occur—a data breach—TeachFlows will not only follow legal mandates but also proactively work to mitigate impacts, alert stakeholders within reasonable timing, and follow our data breach accountability & playbook plan.

Digital Footprint Capture: Our digital ecosystem occasionally records usage metrics, logs, and device-specific details, ensuring we continually refine our offerings for you. These data points will only be provided to our team once they are fully masked, aggregated and anonymized.

Data Retention: We retain your information for the duration that your account remains active and for a limited period thereafter, should you choose to return. If users opt to delete their accounts, TeachFlows will attempt to the best of our ability to delete all retained data.
