Privacy Notice

1. Who Operates This Platform

Mon Parcours is operated exclusively by French Readiness International Academy ("the School") as an educational platform for students enrolled in the International Baccalaureate (IB) Middle Years Programme (MYP) and Diploma Programme (DP) French courses.

For any questions regarding this privacy notice or school data practices, please contact the School Data Coordinator at contact@frenchreadiness.com.

2. What Personal Data is Collected

To support learning, assessment, and academic reporting, we collect the following categories of information:

• Identity & Account Details: Full name, school-issued email address, student identification number, role (student, parent, teacher, HOD, administrator), and profile photo.
• Academic & Enrolment Data: Enrolled classes, MYP phase or DP course level, attendance records, unit plans, and learning tasks.
• Assignments & Coursework: Submitted written responses, uploaded essays, homework files, and past paper practice attempts.
• Speaking Audio Recordings & Transcripts: Audio recordings captured during French pronunciation and oral practice tasks, along with machine-assisted transcripts used by teachers for diagnostic feedback.
• Writing-Process Telemetry: Keystroke cadence, duration, editing timeline, and clipboard paste occurrences recorded during in-app written tasks strictly to verify authentic student authorship and academic integrity.
• Assessment, Feedback & Reports: Formative criteria marks, summative IB levels (MYP 0–8, DP 1–7), teacher comments, moderation logs, support plans, and formal term report cards.
• Security & Session Data: Login timestamps, IP addresses, browser device characteristics, and parent-student relationship linkages.

3. Why Data is Collected

We process personal data solely for legitimate educational purposes, including:

• Delivering curriculum instruction, interactive vocabulary, and French language learning tasks.
• Grading, academic moderation, and publishing official IB-aligned term reports.
• Protecting academic integrity through transparent writing-process verification.
• Providing support plans for students requiring academic assistance.
• Keeping parents informed about their children's progress and attendance.
• Maintaining system security, auditability, and preventing unauthorized access.

4. Who Can Access Your Data (Role-Based Visibility)

Access to data within Mon Parcours is strictly enforced via database Row-Level Security (RLS) policies and verified server-side route guards:

• Students: Can see only their own enrolled classes, assignments, submissions, feedback, grades, and published reports.
• Parents: Read-only access restricted strictly to their verified linked children. Parents cannot view other students, nor internal teacher notes, underperformer flags, or integrity records (unless a support plan is explicitly shared by the teacher).
• Teachers: Can view students enrolled in their assigned classes. Teachers cannot access students or gradebooks of classes taught by other teachers unless granted department permissions.
• Head of Department (HOD) & Admin: Complete oversight over French curriculum, moderation of grades, academic integrity referrals, system settings, and school-wide reporting.

5. Third-Party Infrastructure & Outside Services

Mon Parcours uses established, enterprise-grade cloud service providers to power its features:

6. Data Retention & Leaving Students

Student data is retained throughout the period of enrolment at French Readiness International Academy and for the minimum duration required by applicable educational record-keeping regulations. No student work or assessment history is deleted automatically.

When a student graduates or leaves the school, their account is transitioned to inactive status. Assessment data remains archived for academic moderation. Administrators can also anonymize personal records upon formal request.

7. Rights & Parental Consent (DPDP Act, 2023)

Students and parents hold the right to access, inspect, request rectification, or request export of their personal learning data through the School administration.

Protection for Minors: Because most enrolled students are under 18 years of age, French Readiness International Academy is responsible for collecting verifiable parental or guardian consent in accordance with applicable child protection laws (such as India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023).

8. Essential Cookies Only

Mon Parcours uses only strictly essential, encrypted cookies required for secure user authentication (the session token and session identifier). We do not use third-party analytics cookies, advertising trackers, or fingerprinting scripts.
