Privacy Policy

1. Current website

HelloEarth is currently a public information and demonstration website. The dashboard uses fictional example data. It does not currently provide student accounts or a live student database.

2. Information you provide

If you choose to contact HelloEarth, the information you include in your message may be used to respond to your enquiry and keep a record of that correspondence. Please do not send sensitive student records through the contact link.

3. Technical information

The site is hosted through GitHub Pages. The hosting provider and your browser or network providers may process technical information, such as IP addresses and request details, to deliver and secure the site. Refer to the relevant provider privacy information for details.

4. Cookies and analytics

The current website code does not intentionally set tracking cookies or include an analytics service. This may change in the future, in which case this notice should be updated.

5. Chatbot preview

The bottom-right assistant is a coming-soon demonstration. It does not currently provide an AI conversation service or collect chat messages.

6. Future student data

Any future tutor accounts, student records or Atlas AI integration will require additional safeguards, appropriate notices, retention rules and access controls before launch. The current site is not intended for uploading or storing personal student information.

7. Your rights

Depending on applicable South African data-protection law, including the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA), you may have rights to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information held about you, subject to applicable exceptions.

8. Contact and updates

For privacy enquiries, use the contact information in the HelloEarth contact section. This policy may be revised as services are added.
