4. Legal Basis for Processing
We process personal data on the basis of:

- Contract performance — delivering the service agreed with the school.
- Legal obligation — where required by law.
5. Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal data. We may share data with:
- Your school: Teachers and administrators can view student progress data.
- Service providers: We use trusted third-party services (e.g. cloud hosting, AI providers) to operate the platform. These providers are contractually bound to keep data secure.
- Legal authorities: Where required by law or to protect safety.
6. Children's Privacy
RevHub is designed for use by school students, some of whom may be under 13. We take extra care with children's data:
- Accounts are created and managed by school administrators, not children directly.
- We do not use children's data for advertising or profiling unrelated to education.
- We collect only the minimum data necessary to provide the service.
7. Data Retention
We retain student data for the duration of the school's subscription plus up to 12 months, after which it is securely deleted unless a legal obligation requires longer retention.
8. Your Rights
Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate data.
- Request deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten").
- Object to or restrict certain processing.
- Lodge a complaint with the ICO (UK Information Commissioner's Office).
To exercise any of these rights, email support@revhub.uk.
