Privacy Notice

Edstronaut (“we”) provides personalised worksheets for children at edstronaut.com. We are the data controller for the information described here. To contact us about privacy — including to review or delete your child's information — email privacy@edstronaut.com.

Accounts are for adults. A parent or guardian creates worksheets, enters the child's details, and chooses whether to give the child a passcode to sign in and see the work assigned to them. Children do not create accounts, are not asked for contact details, and cannot share anything publicly.

About the grown-up: your email address, so you can sign in with a link or with Google. If you sign in with Google we receive your email address and name from Google — nothing else.

About the child: the details you type into the worksheet form — a first name, an age, a short description of what they enjoy or are working on, and optionally the first names of friends, family or pets so they can appear in the questions. We ask you not to include surnames, schools, addresses, phone numbers, birthdays or anything else that identifies your child.

The work itself: the worksheets generated, the answers your child types or handwrites on screen (handwritten answers are stored as an image of the writing), and any marks and feedback a grown-up gives.

Technical information: a random identifier stored in your browser so we can measure how long steps take and where people get stuck, plus ordinary server logs. This is not linked to a name and is not used to build a profile of anyone.

A child can answer by speaking instead of typing. By default this runs entirely on your own device, using the browser's built-in on-device speech recognition. The audio is turned into text where it was spoken, only the text is saved, and we never receive or store a recording. On browsers that cannot do this, the button reports that it can't listen rather than sending the audio anywhere.

There is one exception, and only if you choose it. Many devices have no on-device speech model, and their browser can only transcribe by sending the recording to Google. That is switched off unless a signed-in parent or guardian ticks “Let my child speak their answers on any device” on the worksheet form or in your account. With it on, and only on devices that cannot transcribe locally, your child's recorded voice is sent to Google's speech service and handled under Google's own terms. We still never store the audio ourselves, and only the resulting words are saved.

You can withdraw that permission at any time from your account page and it applies immediately. We never use voice to identify anyone.

We use the child's details solely to write worksheet questions pitched at the right age and built around their interests, to record the work and its marking, and to keep the service running and secure.

For users in the UK and Europe, our lawful basis is the consent you give as the parent or guardian before a worksheet is generated. You can withdraw it at any time by emailing us, which we will treat as a request to delete. Where we keep minimal records to run and secure the service, our basis is our legitimate interest in operating it safely.

For users in the United States, we handle children's information in line with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). Personal information about a child is provided by you, the parent, and we ask for your agreement to this notice first.

• We do not sell or rent personal information.
• We do not show advertising, and we do not profile children or use their data for targeted marketing.
• We do not require a child to disclose more than is reasonably necessary to take part.
• We do not publish a child's work. Sharing a worksheet for marking creates an unlisted link that only someone you send it to can open.

Worksheet questions are written by an AI model, so the details you enter about the child are sent to our AI providers (Anthropic for the questions, fal.ai for the decorative artwork) purely to produce that sheet. They act as our processors and do not use it to train their models. We send an email provider (Resend) your email address to deliver sign-in links. We do not share children's information with anyone else, except where the law requires it.

Our servers are operated by us, and data is stored on infrastructure within Europe. Where information is transferred internationally, we rely on approved safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.

We keep worksheets, answers and marking while your account is in use, so you can look back at your child's progress. If the account goes 24 months without a sign-in, we delete all of it automatically — the profiles, the worksheets, the answers and the drawings.

You don't have to wait for that. From your account page you can download everything we hold at any time, or delete one child or the whole account immediately.

Anonymous usage and cost measurements, which contain no personal information and cannot be traced to a person, are kept in aggregate.

You may ask us to show you what we hold about your child, correct it, delete it, or stop using it — and you can refuse to allow any further collection. Email privacy@edstronaut.com and we will act on it. Deleting your child's information may mean their saved worksheets no longer work.

If you are in the UK and are unhappy with how we have handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.

The site is served over an encrypted connection, passcodes are stored only as one-way hashes and lock after repeated wrong attempts, and access to the database is restricted. No system is perfectly secure, but we keep what we collect small deliberately, so there is little to lose.

If we change this notice in a way that matters, we will ask you to read and accept it again before your next worksheet. This is version 2026-08-05.
