Privacy Policy
This document describes how Provsy ("we", "our") collects, processes, and protects personal and educational data within the assessment platform. We commit to proportional collection, transparent processing, and security by design.
Privacy Commitments
Foundational promises that govern how your data is treated throughout its lifecycle.
Encryption
Transit + at-rest encryption by default.
No Data Sale
We never monetize educational content.
Transparent Use
Processing strictly mapped to documented purposes.
User Control
Structured processes for access & deletion requests.
Incident Notice
Timely notification of material security events.
Scoped Collection
Data minimization & purpose limitation.
Information We Collect
We collect only the data required to operate, secure, and improve the platform.
Account
Name, email, institution, and role.
Uploaded Content
Study materials and assessment artifacts you provide.
Generated Content
Assessment items, marking schemes, metadata produced by the system.
Usage Metrics
Feature interactions, event timestamps, performance telemetry.
Technical
IP, device/browser fingerprint (hash truncated), OS family for security posture.
How We Use Information
Processing purposes map directly to service delivery, reliability, and compliance goals.
Service Operation
Authenticate users, render workspaces, process generation tasks.
Quality & Validation
Improve item accuracy via aggregated non-personal performance signals.
Support & Communication
Send incident, security, and material change notices.
Security Monitoring
Detect anomalous access or abuse patterns.
Data Security
Layered controls reduce likelihood and impact of unauthorized access.
Encryption
TLS 1.2+ in transit; AES‑256 or provider-managed equivalents at rest.
Access Control
Principle of least privilege with quarterly entitlement reviews.
Segmentation
Logical separation of tenant data with enforced access boundaries.
Monitoring
Continuous logging, anomaly detection, and automated alert triage.
Testing
Periodic penetration tests and dependency vulnerability scanning.
Incident Response
Documented runbooks; user notification on material impact.
Your Rights
Subject to applicable law, you maintain control over personal information.
Access
Request a structured export of personal data.
Rectification
Correct inaccurate profile information.
Deletion
Request erasure; core logs may persist for security & audit obligations.
Portability
Receive machine-readable exports where technically feasible.
Restriction/Objection
Limit or object to specific processing where grounds exist.
Data Retention
Retention windows balance pedagogical continuity with minimization principles.
Active Use
Data retained while subscription or institutional engagement is active.
Assessment Artifacts
Typically retained through academic year + 1 term for reference.
Backups
Encrypted backups rotate on a rolling schedule (≤ 35 days).
Legal Holds
Extended retention when required for legal or compliance inquiries.
Anonymized Analytics
Aggregated metrics may be stored indefinitely without identifiers.
Data Lifecycle
Structured phases ensure consistent handling, traceability, and timely disposal. Each stage applies least-privilege access, logged operations, and integrity checks.
1. Ingestion
User uploads / API input; validation & malware scanning.
2. Processing
Generation, tagging, validation pipelines execute in ephemeral workers.
3. Storage
Versioned content + metadata stored in multi-AZ encrypted stores.
4. Access
Role & institution-scoped policy enforcement on retrieval.
5. Retention
Scheduled review vs. retention matrix; unnecessary data flagged.
6. Deletion
Soft window, then cryptographic erasure from active + backup media.
