EduConnect - Privacy Policy

EduConnect is a free Grade 7 revision app (Science and Technology, Social Science, Mathematics, English Language, and Physical Education and Arts) published by SpectraIT. This page explains what information the app collects, how it's used, and who it's shared with.

Information we do not collect

EduConnect does not require an account, login, or sign-up of any kind. We do not operate any server that stores or receives information about you or your device. There is no way for us, personally, to identify who is using the app or to see any data from it.

Information stored only on your device

Before starting an exam paper, the app asks for a name, so results can be labelled in the "My Progress" screen. This name, along with exam scores and history, is saved using standard on-device local storage (SharedPreferences) and never leaves your device - it is not transmitted to us, to Google, or to anyone else. Uninstalling the app permanently deletes this data.

Advertising

EduConnect is funded by ads served through Google AdMob. To show and measure ads, Google's AdMob SDK automatically collects certain technical information from your device, which does not go through us and which we do not have access to. This may include:

This data is governed by Google's own privacy policy and AdMob's policies, not ours:

EduConnect restricts ad content to "General audiences" (Google's G content rating) so what's shown is appropriate for a family app used by young learners.

Children's privacy

EduConnect is designed to be used by learners of all ages, often alongside a parent, teacher, or guardian. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone. The only information entered into the app (a name, for labelling exam results) is stored locally on-device only, as described above, and is never transmitted anywhere.

Internet connection requirement

EduConnect requires an active internet connection (Wi-Fi or mobile data) to run, since it is ad-supported. If you are offline, the app will show a "No Internet Connection" screen until connectivity is restored.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time as the app changes. Continued use of the app after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
