Privacy Policy

StudyCoach provides an AI Study Guide Maker, Quiz Generator, Flashcard Generator, Math Solver, and a signed-in Study Planner. The Study Planner stores exam setup, subjects, syllabus topics, roadmap stages, study tasks, completion status, and uploaded materials in Supabase so students can return to their plans. This describes the current application code; provider retention and production configuration have not been independently verified.

Account information: when you register, Supabase Auth processes your email address and password credentials. The application also uses a profile record containing your account ID, email, plan, and creation date. Password handling is provided by Supabase; StudyCoach does not receive a readable password.

Study groups: if you start or join a study group, its other members see the nickname you choose, your study streak, your focus-timer minutes and the number of tasks you finished in the last 7 days. They never see your email, plans, topics, files or notes. The group owner can remove members; leaving a group removes you, and when the owner leaves the group is deleted.

Leaderboards and group challenges: if you join the leaderboard, other signed-in students can see the nickname you choose, your current study streak and your focus-timer minutes this week, and whether you are studying for an AP subject is used to place you on that subject's leaderboard. Nobody can see your email or profile or contact you, and you can leave at any time. In a study group you can choose to share your AP practice-test averages, best score and number of tests from the last 30 days with that group only; this is off unless you turn it on.

Analytics cookies: if you click Accept on our cookie banner, we use Google Analytics to understand which pages and tools are used, for example page views and actions like creating a study plan or using a calculator. It uses cookies and collects information such as pages visited, approximate location (country or city), device and browser; we don't send your name, email or anything you write. Google signals and ad personalization are turned off, and data is kept for 14 months. If you click Decline, Google Analytics doesn't load. You can change your choice at any time with Cookie settings at the bottom of every page.

Lecture to Notes: a recording you upload is stored privately, sent to our AI provider (OpenAI) to be transcribed, and deleted straight after transcription. The transcript and the notes made from it are saved in your account until you delete them. Only record lectures where you are allowed to.

AI Essay Coach: the essay and assignment prompt you paste are sent to our AI provider (OpenAI) to create feedback. We don't save them in your account; we only count how many checks you use each day.

Progress share links: if you create a share link for a parent or tutor, anyone with that link can view one plan's progress: its name and exam date, subjects and topics with your confidence ratings, task status and titles, AP practice-test scores for that subject, focused study time and homework counts. It never shows your email, uploaded files, notes or homework titles. The link is not listed in search engines, records when it was last viewed, and stops working as soon as you switch it off.

Your study goal: if you answer "What are you studying for?" on your dashboard, we store your level, the exam you chose and its date (if you give one) with your account, and use them to suggest your next step and to personalise our emails. We send weekly study tips and reminders (a Sunday email about your study week and a midweek tip about a StudyCoach tool) only if you tick that box (or the weekly tips box when you sign up, then confirm your exam on your dashboard), and every one has an unsubscribe link. You can change your answer at any time with Change on your dashboard.

Emails from StudyCoach: when you create an account, we send you one welcome email. To send it we pass your email address, your first name if you shared it (for example through Google sign-in) and the StudyCoach page you were on when you signed up (your browser remembers the last page you viewed, for that tab only) to our email provider, Resend. We use that page, or for accounts created before welcome emails began, the tools you had already used, only to suggest where to start. Every email has an unsubscribe link, and unsubscribing stops tips and update emails; you will still get emails you need for your account, such as password resets and receipts.

Sign in with Google: if you choose "Continue with Google", Google shares your name, email address and profile picture with StudyCoach through Supabase Auth, which stores them with your account. StudyCoach does not receive your Google password and does not access your Gmail, contacts, calendar or files.

Usage and subscription information: the service uses your account ID and daily usage count to enforce generation limits. If you use Premium checkout, Kelviq (our payment provider and merchant of record) processes payment details and subscription information; subscriptions started before November 2026 are processed by Stripe. StudyCoach receives subscription identifiers and status fields, including plan, billing-period dates, and cancellation status; card details are handled only by the payment provider.

Study Planner information: exam names and dates, paper dates, subjects, syllabus topics, availability, priorities, confidence ratings, generated roadmap data, tasks, task completion, and difficulty feedback are saved to account-owned Supabase tables. Uploaded files are stored in a private Supabase Storage bucket. Extracted PDF and TXT text is saved with the file record; supported images are sent to OpenAI for vision processing only during roadmap generation. Students can remove uploaded materials from the Planner. The application does not currently provide a self-service account or whole-plan deletion control.

Practice-test results: when you take an AP, SAT, ACT or PSAT practice test or full practice exam while signed in, the subject, unit, score, number correct and the topics flagged for review are saved to your account (a full practice exam is saved as one score for each unit it covers) so you can track your progress and, for AP subjects, the Study Planner can show them and, on Premium, adjust your AP plan. Tests taken while signed out are not saved to an account; recent results are kept only in that browser.

Activity history: to show your progress and to help us support students and improve StudyCoach, we keep a short record of what you do in your account: which tool or feature you used and when (for example, that you made a quiz, checked an essay, finished a study task or practice test, or reached a free daily limit), with a few small details such as Free or Premium, the score of a practice test, or minutes studied. It never includes the content of your essays, notes, uploaded files, recordings or AI answers. Only StudyCoach's servers can read it; it isn't shared with other students, parents or anyone else. Each record is deleted after 400 days, and all of it is deleted with your account.

Assignments and study time: assignments you add (title, type, subject, due date, estimated time and planned work sessions) and finished focus-timer sessions (length, time and the task or plan they were for) are saved to your account to plan your work and show your study time and streak. You can delete assignments in the Planner.

Calendar links: if you create a Study Planner calendar link, a random private token and your chosen study start time are saved. Anyone with the link can see that plan’s exam name and study tasks, so keep it private; renewing or turning off the link stops the old one working. Calendar apps fetch the link from their own servers.

Study material and AI processing: text, PDFs, and supported images may be sent to StudyCoach's server and OpenAI for a requested generation or image-text extraction. PDFs and text files are parsed on the server. Planner material is saved only after upload and can be selected for later roadmap generation after student review. Math Solver text, extracted PDF/TXT text, and supported images are sent for the requested solution and are not saved to the student's Supabase file library by the Math Solver route. This does not establish how hosting or AI providers retain data.

Usage and technical data: authenticated account IDs are used by Supabase to enforce daily generation quotas; the Math Solver maintains a separate successful-solve counter. Generation and upload endpoints also use request IP addresses for rate limiting through Upstash Redis. Supabase session cookies are used to maintain and refresh authentication between browser and server requests.

Country: when you create an account (or first open your dashboard), we look up the country your IP address is in and save only that country on your account, to understand where StudyCoach is used. The IP address itself isn't stored for this. Country lookup uses IP Geolocation by DB-IP.

How you found us: StudyCoach remembers, in your browser, the website that sent you to us (such as a search engine), the first page you opened, any campaign tags in the link, and the StudyCoach pages you viewed on your first day. A small first-party cookie (sc_ft) holds the same first-visit details without the page list, so they can be saved to your account when you create it; the pages you viewed are added when you next use StudyCoach while logged in. We use this to see which pages help students most. It isn't shared with other companies, and search engines don't tell us what you searched for.

Phone number (optional): you can add a phone number in your dashboard. We use it only to help with your account, unless you also tick the separate box to receive study reminders and StudyCoach updates by WhatsApp or SMS. We never sell or share it. You can change or remove it, or turn messages off, at any time in your dashboard.

Referral links: if you open StudyCoach through an affiliate's link, a cookie remembers that affiliate's code for 30 days so they can be credited if you sign up, and we count the visit with a random visitor ID (not your name or IP address). Affiliates only see counts, never who you are.

Information is used to authenticate accounts, generate requested learning material and study plans, save and update exams and progress, store uploaded materials, enforce usage limits, process subscriptions, prevent abuse, troubleshoot errors, and operate the service. No account analytics feature was identified in the inspected application.

StudyCoach uses Google for optional sign-in; Supabase for authentication, saved planner data, and private file storage; OpenAI for AI generation and image-text extraction; Kelviq (and Stripe, for subscriptions started before November 2026) for checkout and subscription processing; and Upstash for request rate limiting. These providers may process information to deliver their services under their own terms and privacy practices. We have not verified the providers’ current retention, model-training, or deletion practices. Do not submit highly sensitive personal information or material you are not permitted to share.

A small functional cookie (sc_tz) stores your device's time zone, such as "America/New_York", so the Study Planner shows the right "today" for you; it holds nothing else. Supabase session cookies allow the application to recognize a signed-in user and refresh their session. The application’s browser and server Supabase clients use the same session. This review did not establish cookie lifetimes, all cookie attributes in production, or whether the hosting platform sets additional cookies.

The Study Planner uses authenticated server-side checks, account ownership policies for planner records, and a private storage bucket with user-scoped file paths. Students can remove uploaded materials in the Planner. Exams, plans, tasks, and progress do not currently have a self-service deletion workflow, and the application has no self-service account deletion control. Exact retention periods, backup deletion timelines, production logging settings, and provider data handling have not been verified and remain to be documented. No system can guarantee perfect security.

The application has no self-service account deletion control. To ask for a copy, correction, or deletion of your information, email support@studycoach.io from the email address on your account. We may need to confirm that you own the account before we act on the request. Stripe may retain records it needs for payment, legal, or accounting purposes under its own policies.

StudyCoach is designed for middle school, high school, college, university, and adult learners. The application does not implement an age gate or parental-consent workflow, and this policy does not claim a particular legal certification or compliance status. Younger learners should involve a parent or guardian before sharing personal information. Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain information. You can send these requests to support@studycoach.io.

We may update this policy as the service changes. The latest version and its update date will be posted here. No email-notification process is currently implemented, so please review this page periodically.
