GradeScroll Privacy Policy

Effective date: April 13, 2026

Overview

GradeScroll helps students turn learning material into study cards and review sessions. This policy explains what data GradeScroll collects, how it is collected, how it is used, how service providers process it, and how to request access, correction, export, or deletion.

Data We Collect

Account and identifiers: name, email address, user ID, authentication provider details, sign-in method, and account session data.

User content: notes, typed text, PDFs, document metadata, photos of notes, generated study cards, generated notes, explanations, decks, folders, and edits you make in the app.

Study activity: study modes, onboarding choices, goals, card answers, weak-card markers, progress, streaks, session activity, preferences, and app settings.

Purchases: subscription status, product identifiers, entitlement status, receipt-related information, and purchase history needed to unlock paid features.

Usage data and diagnostics: app events, screen or feature usage, app lifecycle events, device and app version information, errors, performance signals, and crash or troubleshooting details.

Support communications: email messages, feedback, support requests, and related contact details when you email us.

How We Collect Data

We collect data you provide directly, data created as you use GradeScroll, data received from authentication and payment providers, and technical data sent by the app or device to operate and secure the service.

How We Use Information

We use data to create and manage accounts, authenticate users, generate study cards and notes, save decks, personalize study modes, maintain progress and streaks, restore purchases, provide support, diagnose issues, improve reliability, prevent abuse, protect the service, and comply with legal obligations.

GradeScroll does not sell personal information. GradeScroll does not use your notes, uploads, generated cards, or study activity to track you across other companies' apps or websites for third-party advertising.

Service Providers

GradeScroll uses service providers for authentication, account storage, cloud functions, AI study-card generation, analytics, purchase management, hosting, DNS, and email. These may include Appwrite, Apple, Google sign-in, Google Gemini API, PostHog, RevenueCat, Cloudflare, and email providers.

Service providers process data only as needed to provide their services to GradeScroll, subject to their own security and privacy commitments. For example, uploaded learning material may be sent to AI processing services to generate study notes and cards, and purchase data may be sent to payment and subscription services to manage entitlements.

App Store Privacy Disclosures

GradeScroll's App Store privacy labels disclose the data categories used by the app, including contact information, identifiers, user content, purchases, usage data, diagnostics, and product interaction data where applicable.

Retention

We keep data for as long as needed to provide GradeScroll, maintain your account and study history, complete purchases, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent abuse, and maintain security. Uploaded study content and generated cards are kept while your account or deck remains active unless you delete them or request deletion.

Your Privacy Choices

You may request access, correction, export, or deletion of your personal information by emailing support@gradescroll.app. You may also ask us to delete your account and associated study content. Some data may be retained where required for security, legal, tax, purchase, or dispute-resolution reasons.

You can stop future collection by deleting the app, signing out, or no longer using GradeScroll. Some requests may require identity verification before we can act on them.

Children

GradeScroll is not directed to children under 13 and is intended for students who are allowed to use online learning tools in their location. If you believe a child provided personal information without appropriate consent, email support@gradescroll.app.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect data. No online service can guarantee absolute security.

Changes

We may update this policy as GradeScroll changes. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
