The fine print, in plain words

Privacy

What the Hub knows about a student

• A name and a color. When you type or import a class list, we keep the names you approve and nothing else. Every other column in your file is thrown away in your browser before anything is sent to us.
• What you assigned and how it went. Which activities were assigned, whether they were started or finished, quiz and test answers and scores, and marks a grown-up tapped (“Marked finished”).
• A character, if the child made one. When a family links their own child, the child’s Game Patch character shows on your roster — the look only, never the name the child gave it.

What the Hub does not collect

• No student email addresses, no passwords for students, no birthdays, no addresses, no photos, no ID numbers.
• No ads, and nothing is sold or shared for advertising.
• Kids never see prices, and a student’s My Work page never links to a store page.

Who can see what

• You see only your own classes. Another teacher cannot open them.
• A family sees only its own children. When a family links a child to your class, you see the display name and color the family chose — never the family’s email or account.
• A family decides. A family link does nothing until the family taps Approve, and the family can end it any time.
• Worksheet Patch staff see totals — how many teachers, classes and assignments — not what is inside a teacher’s class.

How students get in

A student types the class code and taps their name. There is no password, so anyone holding the code could tap a name on that class list. What that opens is small on purpose: that student’s list of assigned work, and the quizzes on it. Codes last 7 days, you can make a new one any time (the old one stops working at once), and we store codes only in scrambled form — we cannot read a code back to anyone.

Live quizzes (Patch Rally)

A rally keeps class totals: how many players, and how many got each question right. It does not keep which student gave which answer.

How long we keep records

• While your account exists, your records stay. Classes, rosters, assignments, reports and groups are kept so they are there when you come back.
• A pass that ends does not remove anything. Everything stays readable and exportable. Only new premium assigning waits.
• Exporting is free, always. Download a class as spreadsheets, a printable report, or one bundle, from the Reports page.
• You can ask us to delete your Hub records. When you ask, nothing is deleted right away. You get a notice with the date, the export buttons keep working the whole time, and you can cancel any day before that date. After the date, the records are removed for good.
• What deletion removes: your classes, the names on them, assignments, quiz and test results from those classes, groups, rally totals, and your Hub settings.
• What it does not remove: a family’s own records of their own child (those belong to the family), your purchase receipts, and your sign-in account itself. To close the whole account, use the contact page.

Terms

• The Teacher Pass is a one-time payment. $29.99 covers 6 months; $49.99 covers 12 months. It never renews by itself and there is nothing to cancel.
• One pass, one teacher. A pass belongs to one teacher account and can’t be shared or passed around.
• Assigning is not owning. While your pass is active you can assign any worksheet in the store to your own classes. Downloads to keep, and bundles, are still store purchases.
• If a pass ends, your records stay readable and exportable; new premium assigning pauses until you get another pass. Free activities can still be assigned.
• Use it with your own students. Worksheets are covered by the Teacher & Household License: print and share with the students you teach; don’t resell or repost the files.
• Use real class lists only for your own classes, and only names — please don’t paste anything else about a student into a name box.
• Homeschool records are your family’s own record of the work. They are not an official or legal record, and nothing here is legal advice.
• We may change the Hub as it grows. If a change affects what we keep or who can see it, this page changes first.
