Terms & Privacy

By accessing or using Class Pilot ("the Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use the Service.

These terms apply to all users of Class Pilot, including teachers, students, and any other individuals who access the Service. We may update these terms from time to time — continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

Class Pilot is a classroom management platform that enables teachers to create classes, post assignments, grade student work, and communicate with students. Students can join classes, view assignments, submit work, and interact with Class Pilot's AI-powered features.

The Service currently includes the following features:

• Class creation and student management
• Assignment posting with file attachments and due dates
• AI-assisted grading and personalised feedback drafting
• Real-time group collaboration workspaces
• Class-specific AI Assistant trained on teacher-uploaded materials

Class Pilot is currently free to use. We may introduce optional paid plans in the future — we will give reasonable notice before any pricing changes take effect.

To use Class Pilot you must:

Teachers are responsible for ensuring students in their classes meet the eligibility requirements above. If you are a teacher enrolling students under the age of 13, you must obtain appropriate parental consent in accordance with applicable laws including COPPA (US) and GDPR (EU/UK).

• Be at least 13 years of age, or have parental/guardian consent if younger
• Provide accurate and complete registration information
• Keep your account credentials secure and not share them with others
• Notify us immediately of any unauthorised use of your account

You agree not to use Class Pilot to:

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms without prior notice.

• Use automated tools (bots, scrapers) to access or extract data from the Service
• Upload content that infringes the intellectual property rights of others

Your content: You retain ownership of all content you upload to Class Pilot — including assignments, materials, submissions, and feedback. By uploading content, you grant Class Pilot a limited, non-exclusive licence to store, display, and process that content solely to provide the Service to you.

AI-processed content: Materials you upload to the Class AI Assistant are used exclusively to power that class's AI tutor. They are not used to train our AI models or shared with any third party.

Class Pilot's content: The Class Pilot platform, interface, branding, and underlying technology remain the intellectual property of Class Pilot. You may not copy, modify, or distribute them without permission.

Class Pilot is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or completely secure.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Class Pilot shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Service, including but not limited to loss of data, loss of revenue, or academic consequences.

Our total liability to you for any claim arising from use of the Service shall not exceed the amount you have paid us in the twelve months preceding the claim (which, during the free period, is zero).

When you use Class Pilot, we collect the following information:

We do not collect payment information (the Service is free), sell your data to third parties, or use your content to train AI models.

• Account information: name, email address, and role (teacher or student)
• Content you create: assignments, submissions, feedback, and uploaded materials
• Usage data: pages visited, features used, and actions taken within the Service

We use a small number of trusted third-party services to operate Class Pilot. Each of these processes your data only to the extent necessary:

• Email delivery: Nodemailer / Resend — used only to send transactional emails
• AI processing: OpenAI — used to power grading assistance and the Class AI Assistant. Data sent to OpenAI is governed by their data processing agreement and is not used to train their models under our enterprise agreement

We may disclose your information if required by law, court order, or to protect the rights and safety of our users or the public.

We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active. When you delete your account, we remove your personal data within 30 days.

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Request correction of inaccurate data
• Request deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten")
