Privacy Policy

This page is maintained by the PyGenGo team to explain what data PyGenGo ("we", "us") collects when you use the app, why we collect it, and what choices you have. PyGenGo is an educational tool for IGCSE Computer Science classrooms.

1. Who is responsible

PyGenGo is operated by its app owner. For any privacy question, deletion request, or access request, contact a138992@une.edu.mx.

2. Data we collect

• Account info from Google Sign-In: your name, email address, profile picture, and Google account ID. We only request basic profile and email scopes.
• Role and classroom data: whether you are a student, teacher, or admin; the classroom you joined or created; the join codes you generated.
• Learning activity: which questions you answered, whether they were correct, points earned, and timestamps. This powers the daily podium and progress tracking.
• Technical logs: standard server logs (IP address, user-agent, error traces) kept for security and debugging.

We do not collect payment information. We do not collect location data. We do not sell personal data.

3. Why we use it

• To authenticate you and keep your session secure.
• To assign you to the correct classroom and show your teacher your progress.
• To compute the daily class podium visible to your classmates and teacher.
• To diagnose bugs and prevent abuse.

4. Who can see your data

• Your teacher can see your name, your answers, and your points within their classroom.
• Your classmates can see your name and points on the daily podium for your classroom only.
• Admins (the PyGenGo operators) can see all data for moderation and support.
• We do not share data with advertisers or third parties for marketing.

5. Subprocessors

PyGenGo runs on the following providers, who process data on our behalf:

• Lovable Cloud — application hosting, database, and authentication backend.
• Google — OAuth sign-in provider (only when you click "Continue with Google").

6. Cookies

PyGenGo uses only the cookies and local storage strictly required to keep you signed in and remember your session. We do not use advertising cookies or third-party analytics trackers. See our Cookies Policy for details.

7. Data retention

We keep your account and learning history for as long as your account exists. If your teacher archives a classroom, your answers in that classroom are retained for academic reference. You can request full deletion at any time by emailing the address above; we will delete your personal data within 30 days unless we are legally required to retain it.

8. Your rights

Depending on where you live (e.g. GDPR in the EU/UK, LFPDPPP in Mexico), you have the right to access, correct, export, or delete your personal data, and to object to certain processing. Email us to exercise any of these rights.

9. Children and students under 13

PyGenGo is intended for IGCSE students (typically ages 14–16) and their teachers. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has signed up, contact us and we will delete the account.

10. Security

Data is transmitted over HTTPS and stored in a managed Postgres database with row-level security policies that scope each user's access. No system is perfectly secure; we will notify affected users of any material breach in line with applicable law.

11. Changes

We may update this policy. Material changes will be announced in-app or by email. The "Last updated" date above always reflects the current version.
