Privacy Policy

Effective date: [Date]

This Privacy Policy is a plain-English draft for MistakeBook and is not formal legal advice.

MistakeBook is an AI-powered maths and Thinking Skills analysis and practice trainer designed for Australian parents. We aim to handle personal information in a way that is consistent with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles, while not claiming any legal certification or official endorsement.

Parents are the account holders. Children do not create their own accounts in the current version of MistakeBook.

Parents can create and manage child profiles, including details such as child name, year level, and exam type.

We may collect your parent account email address and related login details through our authentication system.

We may collect child profile details such as child name, year level, and exam type.

We may process uploaded question images, extracted question text, AI analysis results, practice attempts, and learning progress records.

Writing Studio also stores essay drafts, planning notes, supplied writing tasks, imported teacher reports, submitted versions, practice conditions and AI coaching feedback. Teacher reports remain separate from AI feedback. Unsaved writing and short lesson exercises may have a recovery copy in the current browser tab.

We may also use cookies and basic analytics to help the app function, remember sessions, and understand general product usage.

We use this information to provide personal learning analysis, generate explanations, create practice questions, store progress, and let parents manage a private learning loop for their child.

Uploaded content is used only for personal learning analysis within your account. It is not sold, not shared with other users, and not used to create a public question bank or shared question database.

MistakeBook currently sends question content to Google Gemini through server-side APIs for analysis, generation and separate review calls. OpenAI is disabled in the normal learning flow. API credentials are not exposed in the browser. Google's processing and retention terms also apply and depend on the accounts and settings used by the service.

Writing Studio sends the essay, task and relevant earlier draft to Gemini for coaching. A photo chosen for import is sent for text recognition. Imported teacher reports are saved separately and are not included in the essay assessment request. Writing photos are not saved as image files by this module; extracted text and processing records may be retained with your account.

MistakeBook uses Supabase to store app data. If configured, data may be hosted in the Sydney region.

Uploaded question images may be processed and stored as part of the analysis flow. Where image deletion after processing is technically implemented, we may remove temporary processing copies after they are no longer needed.

Stripe processes subscription payments. If you choose to subscribe, we send your parent account email and an internal account reference to Stripe. We store Stripe customer and subscription references, payment status and access expiry dates. MistakeBook does not store full card numbers or card security codes.

We store a hashed version of each beta code, its redemption account, validity and expiry dates. Full codes are shown to the administrator when generated. Invitation redemption does not send your learning content to Stripe.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

We do not show your uploaded questions to other users.

We do not use uploaded content to create a public question bank.

We do not use uploaded content to train a shared question database for other users.

Account data is generally retained until you request deletion or your account is deleted.

Parents can request access to their data, correction of inaccurate data, or deletion of account and learning data by contacting us at [contact@mistakebook.com.au].

Parents are responsible for ensuring the service is used appropriately and only with content they have the right to upload.

MistakeBook analyses questions and generates learning support content. It does not make legal, financial, medical, school placement, or exam authority decisions.

AI-generated analysis and practice questions may be helpful, but they can still contain mistakes or incomplete explanations.

If you have a privacy question, concern, or request about your data, please contact us at [contact@mistakebook.com.au].
