Privacy Policy

MyClassStudio (“we,” “our,” or “us”) operates the MyClassStudio platform, a class and studio management service available at myclass.studio (the “Service”). This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

By using the Service, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this policy.

The Service is intended for users who are 13 years of age or older. We do not knowingly allow children under 13 to create their own accounts, and we confirm age at registration. If you are under 13, you may not create an account.

A parent or guardian may add a child under 13 as a managed Student Profile under the parent's or guardian's own account. By doing so, the parent or guardian provides consent for our collection and use of that child's information. The information associated with a managed profile is limited to what is needed to participate in a school's activities — such as the child's name, an optional date of birth, optional profile photo, enrollment and attendance records, progress notes, and form responses. We do not require more personal information from a child than is reasonably necessary, and we do not use it for advertising or sell it.

A parent or guardian can review, update, or delete a managed Student Profile and its information at any time from their account, or by contacting us at privacy@myclass.studio. If we discover that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 13 without the required parental consent, we will delete that information promptly.

We use your information to:

• Create and manage your account.
• Provide, operate, and improve the Service.
• Send transactional emails (e.g., email verification, password resets, school invitations).
• Respond to your support requests.
• Ensure the security of the Service and prevent fraud.
• Comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We do not use your information for behavioral advertising.

We share personal information only in the following circumstances:

• Within the platform: School Admins can see the names, email addresses, and enrollment details of students and teachers in their school. Students and teachers can see limited school and class information.
• Hosting and infrastructure: We use Amazon Web Services (AWS) to host the Service, store data, send transactional email, and manage authentication. Your data is stored on AWS servers located in the United States. AWS acts as a data processor under our instructions.
• Payment processing: We use Stripe to process subscription billing and the payments schools collect through the Service. When you make or receive a payment, the information needed to complete it is shared with Stripe and handled under Stripe's privacy policy.
• Address lookup: When a School Admin enters a school address, we use the Google Maps Places API to suggest matching addresses; the text typed into that field is sent to Google to return suggestions, subject to Google's privacy policy.
• Legal requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or government authority, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of MyClassStudio, our users, or the public.
• Business transfers: If MyClassStudio is acquired or merges with another company, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you before your information is subject to a different privacy policy.

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. If you delete your account, we will delete or anonymize your personal information within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal or compliance reasons.

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal information we hold about you.
• Correct inaccurate information.
• Request deletion of your personal information.
• Object to or restrict certain processing of your information.
• Request a copy of your information in a portable format.

To exercise these rights, contact us at privacy@myclass.studio. We will respond within 30 days.

We implement industry-standard security measures, including encryption in transit (TLS) and at rest, and access controls through AWS Cognito. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. If you discover a security issue, please report it to security@myclass.studio.

The Service uses browser local storage to maintain your session and remember preferences (such as your active role). We do not use third-party advertising cookies.

The Service may contain links to third-party websites (e.g., school websites). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites and encourage you to review their privacy policies.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the effective date at the top and notify active users via email or an in-app notice at least 14 days before the change takes effect.

This Privacy Policy and any dispute relating to it or to our handling of your personal information are governed by the laws of the State of Texas and the United States, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
