PRIVACY POLICY

This Privacy Policy covers all iOS applications (the “Apps”) published by Kendal Slack. Two product families are covered:

• ✓Primary-school apps — Sightwords Superhero and Typing Ninja. These are designed for children and operate completely offline with no network requests at all.
• ✓Year 12 study apps — the HSC, QCAA, and VCE Study series (18 apps in total). The core syllabus content runs entirely offline. An optional in-app AI tutor called Amy the Amoeba sends only the text you choose to submit to Anthropic's Claude API for marking and explanation.

Across all of these apps, we do not collect any personally identifiable information (PII).

None. We do not run a backend, we do not have user accounts, and we do not receive any data about you from the apps.

Specifically, none of our apps collect:

• ✓Personal information (names, ages, email addresses, phone numbers)
• ✓Location data (GPS, IP address, or region)
• ✓Device identifiers (IDFA, IDFV, or similar)
• ✓Usage data or analytics (screen views, taps, session duration)
• ✓Crash reports or diagnostics
• ✓Photos, microphone, or camera data
• ✓Contacts or calendar information
• ✓Financial or payment information beyond what Apple handles for purchase

All app progress is stored locally on your device. This includes:

• ✓Sightwords Superhero: stars earned, pets collected, and levels completed
• ✓Typing Ninja: lesson progress, gems earned, achievements, character customisations
• ✓Year 12 study apps: notes you've read, questions answered, mock-exam results, flashcard progress, streaks, mastery scores, exam date you entered, and your chosen first name (if any) for the in-app greeting

This locally stored information:

• ✓Never leaves the device, except as described in §4 (Amy the AI tutor)
• ✓Is never transmitted to any Kendal Slack server — we don't operate one
• ✓Exists only so the app can remember your progress between sessions
• ✓Can be deleted at any time by deleting the app

Any name you enter inside a Year 12 study app is purely local — used only for the in-app greeting (e.g. “G'day, Sam”). You can leave it blank, use a nickname, or change it at any time. It is never transmitted to us.

The Year 12 study apps include an optional AI tutor called Amy. The apps work fully without Amy — every dot point, past paper, MCQ, flashcard and mock exam is included in the one-time purchase and runs offline.

Amy is powered by Anthropic's Claude API. When you ask Amy to mark a response, explain a concept, or chat about a topic:

• ✓Only the text you choose to send is transmitted — typically the question, your answer, and the relevant marking guideline.
• ✓We do not attach your name, device ID, IP address, email, or any account identifier to the request, because we don't have any of those things.
• ✓The request is sent securely (HTTPS) directly from the app to Anthropic via Kendal Slack's API key. Anthropic processes the request and returns Amy's response.
• ✓Anthropic's handling of API inputs is governed by the Anthropic Privacy Policy and Commercial Terms of Service. Anthropic uses inputs to provide the service and may retain them for limited safety/abuse-detection purposes; Anthropic does not train its consumer models on Claude API inputs by default. See https://www.anthropic.com/legal/privacy and https://www.anthropic.com/legal/commercial-terms.
• ✓Please don't paste personally identifying information (your full name, address, school account details, etc.) into Amy. The marking guidelines never require it, and there's no benefit to including it.

In short: Amy may see the words of your answer, but she sees nothing about you. We don't collect that information either.

The Year 12 study apps unlock Amy through two optional auto-renewing subscriptions:

• ✓Amy Live — A$4.99 / month: AI marking, chat, and explainers
• ✓Crunch Time — A$9.99 / month: Amy Live plus 1.5× the daily AI usage cap

All payment is handled by Apple via In-App Purchase. We never see your card details, billing address, or Apple ID. We receive only the standard anonymous App Store payouts. You can manage or cancel subscriptions at any time in Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions.

The primary-school apps (Sightwords Superhero, Typing Ninja) are designed for children and fully comply with:

• ✓Apple's App Store Review Guidelines for apps in the Kids category
• ✓The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA, US)
• ✓The Australian Privacy Act 1988
• ✓The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) where applicable

The Year 12 study apps are intended for senior secondary students (typically 16+). Even so, no personal information is collected, and the optional Amy AI feature transmits only the academic content the student chooses to send. No parental consent is required because no personal information is gathered from any user.

The primary-school apps integrate no third-party services, SDKs, analytics platforms, advertising networks, or social-media integrations.

The Year 12 study apps integrate exactly one third party: Anthropic's Claude API, used solely to power the optional Amy tutor as described in §4. Beyond that, the Year 12 apps also have no analytics, ads, crash reporting, social login, or cloud syncing.

Specifically, none of our apps include:

• ✓Google Analytics, Firebase, or similar analytics tools
• ✓Facebook SDK or any social-login SDK
• ✓Advertising networks — there are no ads in any app
• ✓Crash reporting services (e.g. Crashlytics, Sentry)
• ✓Cloud syncing (no iCloud KVS, no proprietary cloud accounts)

The primary-school apps require no internet connection and operate entirely offline.

The Year 12 study apps require no internet connection for the core syllabus content (notes, questions, past papers, mock exams, flashcards, glossary, progress tracking). An internet connection is only needed for the optional Amy AI features.

These apps are distributed through the Apple App Store. Apple may collect information as part of the download and (for Year 12 apps) the In-App Purchase process, in accordance with Apple's Privacy Policy. The developer has no control over and receives no PII from this process.

Since we do not collect any personal information, we have nothing to access, correct, export, or delete on our side — your data simply does not exist on any Kendal Slack server.

To remove all locally stored progress, delete the app from your device. To cancel an Amy subscription, use Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions on your device.

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. Changes will be reflected in the effective date at the top of this page. Continued use of any app constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

If we ever change what data is collected or transmitted, we will update this policy and prominently notify users in-app first.
