School Data in the ApkaOS App

Schools use the ApkaOS app to manage information such as:

  • Student and guardian details, documents and photos
  • Admissions enquiries
  • Attendance records
  • Fee structures, receipts and payment records
  • Exams, marks and report cards
  • Staff details, leave and payroll records
  • Messages sent to parents and staff

ApkaOS processes this information on behalf of each school to provide the service. The school decides what information is added and who can access it.

How We Use Information

We use information to:

  • Respond to enquiries.
  • Schedule and manage product demonstrations.
  • Create school accounts and deliver access to the ApkaOS app.
  • Send invoices and manage subscriptions.
  • Improve our products and services.
  • Communicate product updates.
  • Provide customer support.
  • Maintain platform security.
  • Analyze website performance.

AI Features

On Growth and above, AI features such as Ask ApkaOS, AI search, AI alerts, the AI-written Daily School Brief and AI Document Intelligence use a school's data to generate answers, summaries, alerts and recommendations for that school.

To provide these features, relevant school data may be processed by AI model providers. AI features only work with the data of the school that is using them.

Messaging & Payments

When a school sends WhatsApp, SMS or email messages through ApkaOS, the recipient's phone number or email address and the message content are shared with our messaging providers to deliver the message. Delivery logs are kept so schools can see what was sent.

Fee payments by parents are made through Razorpay payment links and go directly to the school's own Razorpay account. ApkaOS subscriptions are also paid through Razorpay. Payments are processed by Razorpay on its own secure payment pages.

Information Sharing

We do not sell personal information.

We may share information with:

  • Trusted service providers who support our operations.
  • Legal or regulatory requirements.
  • Business transfers (if applicable).

Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to help protect information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

  • Secure HTTPS connections
  • Each school's data is isolated at the database level, so no other school can see it
  • Files are stored privately and opened only through secure, time-limited links
  • Roles and permissions control who sees what
  • Two-factor sign-in for admins
  • An audit log records important changes
  • Regular software updates

Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to:

  • Provide our services.
  • Meet legal obligations.
  • Resolve disputes.
  • Improve platform operations.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information.

Cookies & Analytics

ApkaOS may use cookies and analytics tools to:

  • Remember preferences.
  • Understand website usage.
  • Improve performance.
  • Measure engagement.

Children's Privacy

ApkaOS provides software for educational institutions.

Our website is intended for school representatives and other authorized users. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children through our marketing website.

Student data in the ApkaOS app is added by schools and processed on their behalf—not collected through the public website.

Your Rights

You may contact us to:

  • Access your information.
  • Request corrections.
  • Request deletion where applicable.
  • Withdraw consent where applicable.
  • Raise privacy concerns.

If your information was added to the ApkaOS app by a school, please contact that school first, as it controls that information.

Third-Party Services

Website

ApkaOS may use trusted third-party providers to operate our public website, including hosting, security, analytics, email delivery, and demo scheduling. These providers process limited information you submit through forms or that is collected for security and performance, in accordance with their own privacy policies.

Typical providers may include:

  • Vercel
  • Cloudflare
  • Neon
  • Google Analytics
  • Email delivery (e.g. Resend)
  • Google Calendar (demo bookings)
  • Related infrastructure services

Platform

When you use the ApkaOS school platform, we engage trusted service providers only as needed to deliver the product. School and related data is processed under this Privacy Policy and your school agreement.

We host the platform on our own VPS infrastructure. For documents and images, we use Cloudflare R2 with additional security controls for storage. Payments are processed through Razorpay. Messaging may use WhatsApp and SMS providers. AI features may use AI model providers. Transactional email may be delivered through Amazon email delivery services.

We do not sell personal data. Each provider is bound by its own security and privacy practices, and we limit access to what is required to operate the service.

Policy Updates

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time.

The latest version will always be available on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date.
