Mount Zion International ("we", "our", or "the School") operates the Mount Zion International Student App. This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal data when students and parents use our application.
By using the App, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. The application acts as a secure container for our student web portal, facilitating school communication, learning, and academic tracking.
1. Information Collection and Use
To provide a functional educational experience, the App accesses student details managed through the school's official portal. Information processed includes:
- Student Identity Data: Name, class, section, student ID, and registration records.
- Academic Data: Homework submissions, marks, assessment scores, online test results, and attendance records.
- Media and File Uploads: Files, documents, or images uploaded voluntarily by the user for homework assignments or profile setup.
- Financial Data: Session tokens related to fee payments made through secure payment gateway integration.
2. Device Permissions Required
The App requests access to specific device services to support standard operations:
- Internet Access: Necessary to load the school portal database, online classes, and real-time announcements.
- Storage / Media Files: Required to allow students to select and upload homework files, PDF assignments, and images directly to their student profile.
Important Note on Storage: The app only accesses files that you explicitly select and upload for homework submissions or profile pictures. We do not read or scan your private gallery or files without your direct action.
3. Data Transfer and Security
The security of student data is extremely important to us. All network communication between the App and the school servers is encrypted using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL/HTTPS). We employ standard administrative and technical safeguards to prevent unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure of academic and personal records.
4. Third-Party Service Providers
We may integrate third-party services on our official portal (such as payment processors for school fees or virtual class software). These third parties have access to your Personal Information only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.
5. Children's Privacy
As an educational application, this app is designed for students (including those under the age of 13) under the guidance and registration of their parents or legal guardians. All student accounts are created directly by the school administration, and no public sign-ups are allowed.
