Your Data & Privacy
Stratford College London
Effective date: January 2025 · Last updated: 2025
This Privacy Policy explains how Stratford College London ("we", "our", "the college") collects, uses, and protects information when you use our college management app and web portal. By using the app, you agree to the practices described here.
1. What We Collect
We collect your name, email address, role, student ID, attendance records, support messages, profile photo, and device notification token. We only collect what is needed to run your college account.
2. How We Use Your Data
Your data is used to sign you in, display your academic and attendance records, send college notices, process support requests, and allow administrators to manage accounts. It is never sold or shared with third parties.
3. Photos & File Attachments
Photos and files are only uploaded when you actively choose to — for example, when setting a profile picture or attaching a document to a support message. We do not access your camera or files without your action.
4. Push Notifications
If you grant permission, your device token is stored so the college can send you notices and updates. You can withdraw this permission at any time from your device settings.
5. Data Security
All data is transmitted over HTTPS. Passwords are hashed using bcrypt and never stored in plain text. Authentication tokens are stored securely on your device using encrypted storage.
6. Data Sharing
Your data is only accessible to authorised Stratford College staff. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with any third party for marketing or commercial purposes.
7. Data Retention
Your data is retained for as long as your account is active. If your account is deleted, your personal data is removed from our systems within a reasonable period following admin review.
8. Account Deletion
You can request account deletion from the Profile section of the app. Requests are reviewed by an administrator before your account and associated data are permanently removed.
9. Children's Privacy
This app is intended for use by college students and staff aged 16 and above. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 16.
10. Policy Updates
We may update this policy from time to time. Any significant changes will be communicated through the app or via email. Continued use of the app after changes means you accept the updated policy.
11. Contact Us
For any privacy questions or data requests, contact Stratford College at admissionscl@gmail.com or use the Support tab inside the app.
Your data stays within Stratford College and is never sold to third parties. · admissionscl@gmail.com
