Privacy policy
Last updated October 21, 2026
Studyverse helps students keep their class schedule, turn their notes into reviewers, practise, and study with classmates. This policy explains what we collect, why, who we share it with, and how to delete it. Studyverse has no ads, does not track you across other apps or websites, and never sells your data.
What we collect
- Account details: your email address, name, username (handle), and how you sign in (Google, Apple, or email and password). Passwords are handled by Firebase Authentication; we never see them.
- Profile: the profile photo you upload (or the one from your Google account), bio, school, and grade level.
- Schedule: your subjects, classes, rooms, times, exams, quizzes, and deadlines.
- Study materials: notes you type, and photos of notes or timetables you take or choose. Photos are sent to our AI provider to read them and are not stored afterwards; what we keep is the reviewer, flashcards, and questions made from them.
- Study activity: study minutes, streaks, XP and level, practice results, and achievements.
- Community content: posts, comments, likes, saves, groups you create or join, people you follow, schedule and material shares, and reports you file.
- Technical data: our servers keep short-lived logs (such as IP address, time, and the request made) to keep the service running and secure.
We do not collect your location, contacts, call logs, or advertising identifiers, and the app contains no analytics or advertising SDKs.
How we use it
- To run your account and show you your schedule, materials, and progress.
- To create reviewers, practice questions, and timetables from the notes and photos you give us.
- To power community features: feeds, groups, leaderboards, and sharing with classmates.
- To keep Studyverse safe: reviewing reports and removing content or accounts that break the rules.
What other people can see
Other Studyverse users can see your name, username, profile photo, bio, level, and (unless you turn it off) your school. Your posts and comments are visible to the people they're posted to, such as your school or a group. Leaderboards show your XP unless you turn off "Appear on leaderboards" in Settings → Privacy. Your schedule and study materials are private unless you share them.
Who we share it with
We share data only with the service providers that run Studyverse for us, and only for that purpose:
- Google Firebase Authentication: sign-in (email address and sign-in provider).
- OpenAI: reads note and timetable photos and text to create reviewers, questions, and schedules. Under OpenAI's API terms this data is not used to train their models.
- Railway: hosts our servers and database in the United States.
We may also disclose information if the law requires it, or to protect the safety of our users.
Security
All data is encrypted in transit (HTTPS). Access to the database is limited to the people who operate Studyverse.
How long we keep it
We keep your data while your account exists. When you delete your account, your data is removed from our database right away, and from backups within 30 days. Server logs are kept for up to 30 days.
Deleting your account
In the app, go to Profile → Settings → Account → Delete account. This deletes your account and everything in it immediately. You can also ask us to delete it by email.
Students and age
Studyverse is for students aged 13 and older. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data. If you believe a child under 13 has an account, email us and we will delete it. If you're under 18, please use Studyverse with your parent or guardian's permission.
Your rights
You can see and edit most of your data in the app, and delete it at any time. Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 and similar laws, you may also ask us for a copy of your data, to correct it, or to stop processing it. Email us and we will reply within 30 days.
Changes
If we change this policy, we will update the date above and, for significant changes, tell you in the app.
