Children's Privacy
Last updated: August 3, 2026
GyanMul is a school management platform, not a consumer app aimed directly at children. Student accounts and records exist only because a school — acting in loco parentis and under its own relationship with parents/guardians — has chosen to manage them through GyanMul. This page explains how we handle that responsibly.
1. GyanMul is a school-managed platform, not a direct-to-child service
GyanMul does not market to, or knowingly collect data directly from, children outside the context of a school relationship. A student account is created and managed by the school as part of its enrollment records, in the same way a school would maintain a paper student file — GyanMul digitizes and secures that existing responsibility rather than establishing a new direct relationship with a child.
2. The consent model
- The school is the party responsible for obtaining any parental consent required by applicable law before entering a student's data into GyanMul, consistent with its existing enrollment and record-keeping obligations.
- Parents/guardians are given their own account, linked to their child(ren), so they can see and engage with the same information the school maintains about their child.
- We do not require a student to provide any information directly to us outside of what the school enters or what the student submits through school-directed activity (e.g. submitting homework).
3. What student data we process
See Section 2 of our Privacy Policy for the full list. In summary: enrollment and identity information, attendance, academic records, homework/assignment submissions (including photos), and, where a school chooses to record it, limited health or special-needs notes.
4. We do not use student data for advertising
Student data is never used for behavioral advertising, and is never sold or shared with third parties for marketing purposes. Gurubaa features that touch student data operate strictly within your school's existing role-based permissions and are never used to train models on student data — see Section 8 of our Privacy Policy.
5. Parental access and control
Parents/guardians linked to a student can view that student's attendance, academic, and fee records directly in GyanMul, and can request corrections or deletion through their school, as described in our Account Deletion Policy.
6. Compliance posture
We designed GyanMul's handling of student data to align with the spirit of applicable children's privacy frameworks (including the principles behind COPPA and Google Play's Families policies) — minimizing direct data collection from children, keeping schools and parents in control, and applying strong technical safeguards. If you believe GyanMul is processing a child's data outside of an appropriate school relationship, contact us immediately using the details below.
7. Contact for privacy requests
A parent, guardian, or school administrator with a question or request regarding a child's data can contact info@gyanmul.com at any time.
