Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 21, 2026

We ("we", "us", "our") operate ParentDesk at parentdesk.net. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights.

What we collect

  • Your email address and display name, collected when you create an account.
  • Children's profile information — a display name (which can be a nickname; we do not require real names) and a color. No dates of birth or school names are required.
  • Content you enter: schedules, tasks, teacher notes, and commitments.
  • Photos or screenshots you upload when using the photo import feature. These images are transmitted to extract event and commitment data and are never stored or retained — only the extracted data (event titles, dates, commitment details) is saved to your account.
  • Payment processing is handled entirely by Stripe. We never see or store your card number or full payment details.
  • Basic usage data collected automatically by our hosting infrastructure (Supabase).

Why we collect it

We use your information solely to provide the ParentDesk service: storing your data, processing payments, and sending transactional emails such as password reset links and family sharing invitations. We do not use your data for advertising. We do not sell your data.

Who we share it with

We use third-party services to operate ParentDesk:

  • Supabase — database and authentication hosting. Your data is stored on Supabase's infrastructure.
  • Stripe — payment processing. Stripe handles all billing and stores payment details under their own privacy policy.
  • Photo import — images you upload are sent to Google (Gemini API) for processing to extract event and commitment data. ParentDesk does not retain your photos — only the extracted data is saved to your account. Google's data handling is governed by the Google API Services User Data Policy.

No other third parties receive your data.

Children's data

ParentDesk is an adult-facing service intended for parents and caregivers. You may enter information about your children to organize your family's schedule, but we do not require or request identifying information about children. ParentDesk is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children.

Data retention

Your data is stored for as long as your account is active. You may request deletion of your account and all associated data at any time by submitting a request through our feedback form. We will process deletion requests within a reasonable timeframe.

Your rights

You may:

  • Access the data you've entered by using the app.
  • Correct any information by editing it directly in the app.
  • Request deletion of your account and data via our feedback form.

California residents may have additional rights under the CCPA. EU/UK residents may have additional rights under the GDPR. To exercise any rights, contact us through the feedback form.

Security

We use HTTPS for all data in transit and Supabase's row-level security to ensure users can only access their own data.

Changes to this policy

If we make material changes, we will update the "last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of ParentDesk after changes constitutes acceptance.
