classcon.ph ("we", "us", or "our") is the Personal Information Controller, as defined under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173, or "DPA"), for the personal data we collect through our website, services, and applications (collectively, the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect that information, and what rights you have over it. Please read it carefully.
1. Information We Collect
a. Personal Information
b. Sensitive Personal Information
Under the DPA, records related to a person's education are classified as Sensitive Personal Information, which we handle with additional care. This includes:
qna).c. Exam Integrity Information
To detect and prevent cheating during timed exams (for example, tab-switching or use of multiple devices), we may collect your IP address, device/browser information, and approximate location while you are actively taking an exam.
d. Usage Data
e. AI Feature Data
If AI-assisted content generation is used on your class, either through a teacher's own third-party API key ("bring your own key") or through an AI service we may offer directly, the class materials relevant to that request are processed by the applicable AI provider (which may include OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Opencode, or a provider we select ourselves) to generate a response.
2. Legal Basis for Processing
We process your Personal Information on the basis of the consent you give when you register or are enrolled in a class, and as necessary to provide the Service you have signed up for (DPA Sec. 12).
We process Sensitive Personal Information, such as grades and exam records, on the basis of your (or, for a minor, your parent's or guardian's) consent given at enrollment, and because such processing is necessary to fulfill the core educational purpose of the Service, consistent with existing laws and regulations governing school recordkeeping (DPA Sec. 13).
3. How We Use Your Information

4. How We Share Your Information
We may share information we have collected about you in the following situations:
With Other Users: Depending on your role, we may share your information with other users. For example, teachers may see the names and exam results of students in their own classes.
With Service Providers: We work with third-party providers who process data on our behalf, including:
These providers are only permitted to process your information to perform services for us (or, for a teacher's own AI provider key, at the teacher's direction) and are not permitted to use it for their own purposes.
For Legal Reasons: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g., a court or a government agency).
To Protect Rights: We may disclose your information to protect our rights, property, and safety, as well as the rights, property, and safety of our users and others.
We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
5. International Data Transfers
Some of the service providers listed above may process or store data on servers located outside the Philippines. When this occurs, we remain accountable for your personal data in accordance with the DPA, and we take steps to ensure it continues to receive an adequate level of protection.
6. Data Security
We use administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your personal information, including hashed (not plaintext) account passwords and AES-256 encryption for any AI provider API keys you choose to store with us. While we take reasonable steps to secure your information, no method of transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
7. Data Retention
We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. When you or your school administrator deletes a record, it is first marked for deletion and excluded from normal use, then permanently removed in accordance with our internal data management procedures, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

Our Service is intended for use consistent with the eligibility requirements in our Terms of Use. Where an account is created for or by a minor, we require the consent of a parent or guardian, or the school acting on their behalf as part of the enrollment process. If we become aware that a minor's personal data was collected without the required consent, we will take steps to address it, which may include deleting that information.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date.
