Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 2026
This is a plain-language starting template, not finished legal advice. Have a lawyer review and adapt it before relying on it.
What we collect
- Account info: your name, email, password (stored hashed), and US state.
- Family info you enter: each child’s name, grade, interests, your notes about them, your homeschool philosophy, scheduling preferences, and lesson reflections.
- Usage: the plans, lessons, and records created in your account, and basic activity needed to run the service.
- Payment: handled by Stripe. We never see or store your full card number.
About children's information
The information about your children is entered and controlled by you, the parent or guardian — children are not our users and do not have accounts. We use that information only to generate your family’s materials and records. You can edit or delete it anytime.
How we use it
To provide the service: build your plans, write lessons and worksheets, track progress, keep records, and power the coach. To do this we send relevant details to our AI provider (OpenAI) to generate content. We do not sell your personal information.
Who we share it with (service providers)
- OpenAI — generates lessons, plans, and coach replies.
- Stripe — processes payments.
- Our hosting/database providers — run the app and store your data securely.
Your choices & rights
You can view and edit your data in the app, and request deletion of your account and its data by emailing us. Depending on where you live (e.g. California, the EU), you may have additional rights to access, correct, or delete your information — we honor those requests.
Data retention & security
We keep your data while your account is active and delete it on request. We use reasonable security measures (hashed passwords, encrypted connections), though no system is perfectly secure.
Cookies
We use a single secure session cookie to keep you logged in. We don’t use third-party advertising trackers.
Changes & contact
We’ll note material changes to this policy. Questions or requests: hello@arborhomeschool.com.
