Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 16, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to SchoolsUganda. This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding data collection and usage when you visit our website schoolsuganda.com and use our mobile application. We have built our application to minimize data collection and respect your privacy, in alignment with Google Play's Data Safety requirements.

2. Data We Collect and Why

While we do not collect personal information like your name or email, we do collect certain diagnostic and performance data strictly for app functionality and maintenance:

  • App performance data: Crash logs and diagnostic error reports. This data is collected automatically to help us fix bugs and improve stability.
  • Device information: Non-identifying device metrics such as operating system version to optimize the app layout and network requests.

Is this data optional? This diagnostic data is collected automatically to improve app stability and performance. The app can still function without this data collection in offline scenarios where applicable. We do not use collected data for advertising, profiling, or marketing purposes.

3. Data Sharing and Security

We are committed to data security. Here is how we handle the collected data:

  • Encryption in Transit: All data transmitted between your device and our servers (including app requests necessary for functionality) is encrypted over secure HTTPS/SSL connections.
  • No Third-Party Data Selling: We do not sell, rent, or trade your diagnostic data with third parties. It is solely used internally.

4. Payments and Third Parties

Premium features are processed securely through our trusted third-party payment provider, Flutterwave. We do not store or process your credit card or mobile money details on our servers. We only receive an anonymous transaction reference to verify payment success.

For more information on how Flutterwave handles your payment data, please review their privacy policy at: https://www.flutterwave.com/privacy-policy.

5. Children's Privacy

While SchoolsUganda provides educational information, the application is intended for use by parents, educators, and older students. We do not knowingly collect any personal or identifying information from children under the age of 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us so we can promptly delete it.

6. Data Retention and User Rights

Retention: The diagnostic data (e.g., crash logs) we collect is retained temporarily, typically no longer than 90 days, solely for debugging purposes before being automatically purged.

Data Deletion Request: Even though we do not collect personal identifiers, you may request deletion of any diagnostic data or payment-related verification references associated with your usage. You can submit a deletion request by emailing our support team with your device's transaction reference.
