Legal

Data & security.

The details your DPO and IT lead will ask about, in one place.

UK GDPR by design

Built in line with UK GDPR standards, with secure institutional logins and anonymised data handling for research.

The school stays in control

Your school remains the controller of student data, connected through Wonde with clear agreements on processing, retention and deletion. The connection can be reviewed or revoked at any time.

Consent & opt-out

Clear consent and opt-out processes for students and families, established during onboarding with template communications provided.

Research ethics

Any research use is anonymised at student level and subject to ethical approval and consent procedures.

Encryption & access control

Encryption, secure authentication systems and role-based access controls, backed by regular security reviews.

Stored in the UK

Data is stored within the UK, or in jurisdictions with equivalent data protection standards.

Never sold, never profiled

Personal data is never sold, and never used for advertising, behavioural profiling or commercial marketing.

Retention & deletion

Data is kept while an account is active under the school agreement, then deleted or anonymised. Schools can request deletion at any time.

Safeguarding architecture

Privacy questions: privacy@schologists.co.uk. The full policy is on the privacy & safeguarding page, and you can lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner's Office at any time.
