10. Student Safety & Protection
Since Telix 0.1 is primarily used by secondary school students (ages 11-18), student safety is our highest priority:
Data Minimization:
We collect only essential information needed for education. We never collect unnecessary personal data and do not sell or share student data with third parties.
Age-Appropriate Content:
All content is carefully curated for secondary school students. We filter inappropriate material and ensure learning modules are developmentally appropriate.
Parental & School Controls:
Schools and parents have transparent visibility into student activity. We provide optional parental controls and require explicit parental consent for student accounts where applicable.
Reporting Mechanisms:
Students can report safety concerns (inappropriate content, technical issues, or harmful behavior) through in-app tools. Reports are reviewed by our team within 24 hours.
Cyberbullying & Harassment Prevention:
Our community platform includes moderation, blocking features, and clear community guidelines. Teachers have tools to monitor and prevent cyberbullying.
Incident Response:
If we identify a safety concern, we have established procedures to respond immediately, notify parents/guardians, and escalate to appropriate authorities if needed.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices. We will notify you of any significant changes by updating the "Last updated" date and, where applicable, by obtaining your consent.
