Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

At Bee, we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, process, and protect your personal data when you use the Bee school management platform and related services.

By accessing or using our services, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree with this policy, please do not use our services.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information to provide better services to our users. The types of information we collect include:

• Account Information: Name, email address, school affiliation, and role when you register an account.
• School Data: Student records, academic performance, attendance, and financial ledgers uploaded by authorized school administrators.
• Usage Data: Information on how the service is accessed and used, including device information, IP address, and browser type.

3. How We Use Your Data

We strictly use your data to provide, maintain, and improve our platform. Specific uses include:

• Facilitating secure login and role-based access control.
• Processing academic and financial data as requested by the school institution.
• Sending administrative communications, system updates, and automated notifications (e.g., via WhatsApp or SMS).
• Generating aggregated, non-personally identifiable analytics to improve platform performance.

4. Data Protection & Security

We employ industry-standard security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. This includes encryption in transit, strict role-based access policies, and automated backups with restricted restore access. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

5. Data Sharing & Disclosure

We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share data only under the following circumstances:

• With Service Providers: Trusted third-party vendors who assist us in operating our platform (e.g., cloud hosting, communication gateways), strictly under confidentiality agreements.
• For Legal Reasons: If required by law, regulation, or legal process to protect the rights, property, or safety of Bee, our users, or the public.

6. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of your personal data. Because Bee acts as a data processor for schools, requests regarding student or staff data should generally be directed to the respective school administrator.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify users of any material changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.
