This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal data when you use our Service (websites and apps) and the choices you have associated with that data.
We collect only a small amount of data about you. The information we collect is as follows.
Tquil is designed with privacy in mind and collects only the minimum personal information necessary to operate effectively. While it is possible to use the service anonymously in many cases, certain features — such as task tracking and submission review—require us to store limited personal data, including educator username and email addresses. Educators are responsible for ensuring they have appropriate consent to collect and manage student submissions in accordance with their local laws, school policies, and data protection regulations.
Educators using Tquil are responsible for protecting the privacy of their students, particularly when working with minors. Where possible, educators should avoid requesting or collecting personally identifiable information (PII) such as full names, home addresses, school names, or other location- or organization-specific details in student responses. We recommend using non-identifying usernames or nicknames and limiting form content to what is strictly necessary for the learning task. By using this platform, educators agree to comply with relevant privacy laws and to take reasonable steps to safeguard student anonymity and data security.
We do not use cookies of any kind. Period. This is in accordance with our company ethos which is to create an open community without restrictions.
The security of your data is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
