Privacy Policy

1. What we collect

When you create an account or use NaijaLearn, we may collect the following:

• Account information — your name, email address, and role (teacher, parent, or student)
• Profile data — optional information like your state, school, and profile photo
• Uploaded content — lesson notes, past questions, and schemes of work you choose to share
• Usage data — pages visited, resources downloaded, and search terms (used only to improve the platform)
• Device data — browser type, operating system, and IP address for security purposes

2. How we use your information

We use your information to:

• Create and manage your NaijaLearn account
• Display your uploaded resources and profile to other users
• Send important account notifications (password resets, verification updates)
• Improve the platform based on how it's being used
• Detect and prevent fraud or abuse

We do not use your information for targeted advertising, and we never will.

3. Data storage and security

Your data is stored securely using Supabase, which is hosted on AWS infrastructure in the EU (Ireland). All data is encrypted in transit using HTTPS and encrypted at rest.

Uploaded files (PDFs, Word documents, etc.) are stored in Supabase Storage with access controls. Public resources are accessible to all users; your personal profile data is only editable by you.

4. What we share (and don't share)

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. Full stop.

We may share limited information in these specific circumstances:

• With service providers — Supabase (database and auth), Netlify (hosting). These providers process data only on our behalf and under our instructions.
• For legal compliance — if required by Nigerian law or a valid court order
• With your consent — if you explicitly ask us to share something

Your uploaded resources are public by design — that's the whole point of the platform. Your email address is never shown publicly.

5. Cookies

NaijaLearn uses minimal cookies. Specifically:

• Session cookies — to keep you logged in (set by Supabase Auth)
• Preference cookies — to remember your theme choice (light/dark mode)

We do not use tracking cookies, analytics cookies, or advertising cookies. No third-party cookie scripts are loaded on NaijaLearn.

6. Children's privacy

NaijaLearn is designed for teachers, parents, and students. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without parental consent. If you believe a child under 13 has created an account without permission, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.

Students between 13 and 17 may use NaijaLearn with parental awareness. We encourage parents to discuss responsible internet use with their children.

7. Your rights

You have the right to:

• Access — request a copy of the data we hold about you
• Correction — update your profile information at any time from your dashboard
• Deletion — delete your account and all associated data from your dashboard settings
• Portability — request an export of your data in a readable format
