Overview & Scope

Klaxtrix SMS-EDU ("Klaxtrix", "we", "our", or "us") operates a multi-tenant cloud-based School Management System (SaaS). We serve educational institutions, including early childhood centers, primary schools, and secondary academies ("Subscribers" or "Institutions").

This Privacy Policy applies to all services provided under the Klaxtrix domain (`klaxtrix.com`, `klaxtrix.site`) and custom tenant portals (`[subdomain].klaxtrix.com`). Educational institutions act as the primary **Data Controllers** of their academic and student data, while Klaxtrix operates as a secure **Data Processor**.

Student & Child Data Protection

Because Klaxtrix serves educational institutions with minor students (under 18 years of age), child privacy protection is integrated into our core system architecture:

Educational Authorization (*In Loco Parentis*)

Subscribing schools obtain parent/guardian consent during student admission. Klaxtrix processes minor student data strictly on behalf of the subscribing school for legitimate educational purposes. Student data is never subjected to targeted advertising, behavioral profiling, or commercial marketing.

Tenant Data Isolation & Security Architecture

Klaxtrix uses a high-fidelity Partner-Cloud Architecture to ensure complete tenant data segregation:

  • Strict Subdomain & Schema IsolationDatabase queries are dynamically scoped using connection resolvers by `school_id`. No tenant can query or access another institution's database records.
  • End-to-End EncryptionAll data in transit is protected using TLS 1.3 encryption. Sensitive database attributes are encrypted at rest using AES-256 with Master Key key rotation.
  • Progressive Web App (PWA) Offline Cache SecurityPWA service workers cache static application assets locally. User credentials and sensitive academic records are strictly excluded from client-side persistent storage.

* We do NOT sell, rent, or trade student, parent, or school data to any third-party advertisers or data brokers.

Data Retention & Institutional Sovereignty

Institutions retain complete ownership of their data ("Data Sovereignty"). Data is retained for the duration of the institution's active subscription. Upon subscription termination or explicit administrative request, Klaxtrix provides a 30-day grace period for full academic record export, followed by permanent deletion from active database servers.
