1. Introduction

Novaris Education ("Novaris") is committed to protecting the privacy of teachers, learners, parents and schools who use the platform. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, how we protect it, and the choices users have.

2. Information We Collect

Depending on how Novaris is used, we may collect:

  • Name and email address
  • Teacher account information

  • AI feedback and assessment results
  • Technical information needed to operate and secure the platform

3. Google Calendar Integration

If a teacher chooses to connect Google Calendar, Novaris requests read-only access to selected Google Calendar information.

Novaris uses this access only to import school calendar events into the Novaris Teacher Calendar.

Novaris does not:

  • Create Google Calendar events
  • Edit Google Calendar events
  • Delete Google Calendar events

  • Generate learner feedback
  • Support AI-assisted marking and practice
  • Create formatted learner and teacher PDF reports
  • Provide technical support
  • Improve the reliability and usefulness of Novaris

5. AI Services

Some Novaris features use AI services to generate feedback, mark learner work, review written tasks, or assist with educational practice.

Only the information required for the specific educational task is sent to the AI service. AI features are intended to support teachers and learners, not replace teacher judgement.

6. Learner Information

Learner information is managed by teachers or schools. Novaris is intended for educational use under teacher or school supervision.

7. Data Sharing

Novaris does not sell personal information.

Information may be processed by trusted service providers where required to operate the platform, such as hosting, authentication, storage, email delivery, AI services, or calendar connection services.

8. Data Security

Novaris uses reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect user information. Access is restricted to authorised users.

9. Data Retention

We retain information for as long as needed to provide the service, support users, comply with legal obligations, or maintain platform records. Users may request deletion where appropriate.

10. User Choices and Rights

Users may:

  • Update their account information
