Privacy Policy
Effective date: June 8, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how Sennmar ("we", "us") collects, uses, and protects information when you use the Senmmar School mobile application (com.sennmar.attendance) and the web service at schoolmanger.com (together, the "Service"). The Service is provided to schools so that staff, students, and parents can manage attendance, homework, grades, and related school activities.
Each school that uses the Service is the data controller for its own users' data. Sennmar acts as the data processor on behalf of the school.
1. Information we collect
The data we hold depends on your role (school administrator, teacher, student, or parent). We collect only what is needed to operate the Service.
- Account information. Username or ID number, full name, password (stored as a hash), role, and the school you belong to.
- Contact information. For parents: phone number used to log in and, optionally, an email address. For staff: school-issued identifier.
- Attendance records. Check-in and check-out times, period, group, and the device or station that recorded the event.
- Homework and grades. Assignments created by teachers, submissions and files uploaded by students, exam and quiz results, and grade publication dates.
- Uploaded files. Photos and documents that users attach to homework, profile pictures, and files attached to messages.
- Messages and AI assistant. Conversations with the in-app AI assistant and messages sent through the school portal.
- Device and session data. A session token stored on your device after login, the app version, and minimal technical logs (timestamps, status codes) needed to operate and secure the Service.
- Payments and invoices (where the school enables accounting features): payment amounts, dates, and invoice PDFs. We do not store full credit-card numbers.
The app does not collect device location, microphone audio, contacts, or advertising identifiers.
2. How we use information
- To authenticate you and keep you signed in.
- To show attendance, homework, grades, and notifications relevant to your role.
- To let teachers manage classes and let parents see their children's activity.
- To answer questions through the AI assistant feature.
- To operate, secure, and improve the Service (debugging, abuse prevention).
- To comply with legal obligations.
We do not sell personal information and we do not use it for advertising.
3. Sharing
We share information only as follows:
- With your school. School administrators and authorised staff can see the data that belongs to their school. Parents can see the data of children linked to them.
- With service providers. Hosting, database, file storage, and the AI model provider used by the assistant. These providers process data on our behalf under contract.
- When required by law or to protect the rights and safety of users.
4. Data retention
We keep your data while your account is active and while your school uses the Service. When you request account deletion (see /delete-account) and the request is approved by your school, your personal account record is deleted from our active database within a reasonable timeframe. Some records may remain in encrypted backups for a limited period before they are overwritten. We may retain anonymised or aggregate data that cannot be used to identify you.
5. Security
Passwords are stored as one-way hashes. Traffic between the app and our servers is encrypted in transit (HTTPS). Access to school data inside Sennmar is restricted to authorised staff and audited.
6. Children
The Service is provided to schools, and student accounts are created by the school the student attends. The school is responsible for obtaining any consent required under local law for student accounts. If you are a parent and believe a child's account was created without appropriate authorisation, please contact your school or email us at the address below.
7. Your rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, export, or delete your data. The Service provides in-app controls for the most common requests, and you can also email us. For account deletion, see /delete-account.
8. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Effective date" at the top of the page. Significant changes will be communicated through the app or by email.
