Data we collect

We collect the minimum personal data necessary to operate the Service, including:

• Account information: teacher and assistant names, email addresses, account identifiers and authentication/session cookies.
• Student academic data: names, student identifiers, coursework and marks, attendance, and related classroom information imported from Google Classroom with teacher authorization.
• Online meeting metadata: meeting identifiers, participant identifiers (email or display name), and join/leave timestamps used to compute attendance for online sessions.
• Contact data: student and guardian/parent names, WhatsApp phone numbers, relationship to student and language preference; opt-in information recorded by teachers/TAs.
• Messaging data: content of templated messages sent to students and guardians and replies handled by the shared inbox.
• Usage and audit logs: records of actions taken in the Service for security and auditability.
• Billing and credits: purchase records and credit balances.

We do not seek to collect special category (sensitive) personal data except where teachers upload such information; teachers should avoid uploading sensitive data unless necessary and legally permitted.

How we collect data

Directly from teachers/TAs: data entered via the dashboard or imported by the teacher. Teachers/TAs are responsible for collecting student and guardian consent and entering opt-in information on the site.

From Google Classroom: with teacher authorization via OAuth.

From recipients: when students or guardians reply to messages or otherwise provide details to teachers or Indexburg.

Automatically: session cookies for authentication and logs for product operation and security.

Google API Disclosure (Limited Use)

Indexburg’s use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. We do not use Google user data for advertising purposes or sell it to third-party data brokers.

Cookies and sessioning

The Service uses session cookies (for authentication) and may use cookies or similar technologies to improve product functionality. Cookies are used for authentication/session management and product improvement only. If you wish to disable cookies, you may do so through your browser, but disabling authentication cookies will prevent use of teacher/assistant features.

How we use personal data

We use personal data to:

• Provide and operate the Service (generate and deliver reports to students/guardians, manage the shared inbox and dashboards).
• Synchronize Classroom data and perform authorized write operations only after explicit teacher confirmation.
• Authenticate users and secure accounts.
• Process payments and manage credits.
• Maintain audit logs, detect and prevent abuse, and investigate incidents.
• Communicate with teachers, students, and guardians about accounts or support.
• Improve the Service through analytics and product development.

Legal basis and teacher responsibility

Indexburg relies on the authority of teachers/TAs to collect student and guardian consent and to supply contact details. Teachers and TAs represent and warrant that they have obtained any required consent. Where applicable law requires a separate legal basis (for example under Egypt Law 151/2020), teachers are responsible for ensuring compliance for the students and guardians they enroll; Indexburg will cooperate to meet legal obligations.

Sharing and disclosure

We do not sell personal data. We may disclose personal data to:

• Google Classroom and WhatsApp / Meta as part of the Service integrations.
• Service providers or processors engaged to perform technical services necessary to operate the Service.
• Law enforcement or regulators when required by law.

Mobile numbers collected for WhatsApp messaging will not be shared with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

Retention and deletion

We retain personal data only as long as necessary to provide the Service (generally up to 12 months), including online meeting metadata used for attendance. You may request deletion earlier by emailing info@indexburg.com.

Minors & parental consent

Indexburg’s Service is used by teachers to communicate with students (who may be minors) and their guardians. Teachers and their assistants are responsible for obtaining and recording guardian consent before messaging minors. Recipients may opt out of receiving messages at any time.

Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical and organizational measures to protect personal data, including encryption in transit and at rest, access controls and audit logging. However, no security system is perfect and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your rights and how to exercise them

In accordance with Egyptian law, users may request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal data. To make a request, contact info@indexburg.com.

Limitation of liability

Indexburg seeks to operate a reliable and secure Service. To keep the Service sustainable and fair, Nayaltex (نيال للاقمشة والمفروشات) / Indexburg does not accept liability for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages. This policy is subject to the limits and exceptions required by applicable law.
