You can read the details about our privacy policies and compliance with the latest general data protection regulations (GDPR) in our Terms and conditions.
We do like to confirm a few important points in this article that your school's data protection officer might specifically ask for:
Data is stored securely within the European Union using 256bit AES encryption (more specifically in Dublin).
Students can manage their personal data at any time using the settings page in their account.
Personal data is used only for the specified purposes of running Seneca. Student email, first name, last name, year group and school are collected from students.
We act as a ‘data controller’ – meaning we only act on students behalf; all data belongs to and is controlled by the student.
Teachers request access to a student's learning data from the student by inviting them to classes.
