This Privacy Policy explains the limited information the Inquiry by Design Digital Resource Hub (the “Resource Hub”) collects when teachers and staff sign in, and how we use it. Our approach is deliberately minimal: we collect only what is needed to let you sign in and to keep the Resource Hub secure. We never collect student data.
Who this policy covers
This policy covers teachers and school or district staff who sign in to the Resource Hub. The Resource Hub is built for adult educators and is not directed to students or children.
Information we collect
We collect a small amount of information, and only when you sign in:
- your name, as provided by your school or district sign-in account;
- your school or work email address;
- a unique account identifier from your sign-in provider (Google, Microsoft, Clever, or ClassLink);
- sign-in timestamps and standard technical logs (such as IP address and browser type), kept for security for about 30 days; and
- a session cookie that keeps you signed in while you use the Resource Hub.
What we do NOT collect
We never collect student data or create student accounts. We do not request or receive class rosters from Clever or ClassLink — we use those services only to sign teachers in. We do not track you across other websites, run advertising, or build marketing profiles.
How we use your information
We use the limited information above to sign you in and keep you signed in; to create and maintain your Resource Hub user record; to keep the Resource Hub secure and troubleshoot problems; and to understand, at the district level, how many licensed teachers are using the Resource Hub for license administration. We do not use it for advertising.
Who we share information with
We do not sell, rent, or trade your information. We share the limited sign-in information only with your sign-in provider (only the one your district uses) to verify your identity, and with our website hosting provider, which stores the site and its security logs. For details, see our Data Sharing Privacy Policy [link to Data Sharing Privacy Policy]. We may also disclose information if required by law.
How we protect your information
We use reasonable safeguards to protect the limited information we hold. If a data breach affects your information, we will notify the affected district(s) without undue delay and within 72 hours of confirming it.
How long we keep it
We keep your sign-in record while your district’s Resource Hub license is active. When the license ends, or on request, we delete or de-identify it within [a reasonable period]. Security logs are kept for about 30 days.
Your choices and rights
You or your district can ask us to access, correct, or delete your Resource Hub information by emailing info@inquirybydesign.com. Because you sign in with your district’s account, your district’s administrator can also manage or revoke your access at any time.
Students and children (COPPA and FERPA)
The Resource Hub collects information only from adult teachers and staff. We do not knowingly collect personal information from students or from children under 13. We support schools’ obligations under FERPA and applicable state student-privacy laws, and we will sign a Data Privacy Agreement with districts that require one.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. We will post any changes here with a new date.
