Last Updated: August 17, 2025
CROWN TECHNOLOGIES AND SOLUTIONS PRIVATE LIMITED ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting the

collect, use, disclose, and protect your information when you use the App or our ERP services. By using the

1. Information We Collect
We do not collect student details directly, and there is no registration process within the App. Schools
provide usernames and passwords to students and parents for accessing the App. We collect limited

information we collect include:
a. Personal Information
- School-Provided Credentials: Usernames and passwords provided by the school to
authenticate logins.

details (e.g., name, contact information) through the App.
- Payment Information: Payment details (e.g., UPI IDs, card details, or net banking
information) for processing school fee payments. This information is handled by third-party payment
gateways and is not stored by us.
- School-Related Information: Academic records (grades, exam results, attendance,
subject-wise performance), leave records, and study materials (notes, assignments, syllabus) provided by
the school.

c. Information from Schools
We collect data provided by schools, such as student academic records, attendance, and study materials, to
enable features like academic tracking and parent-teacher communication.
d. App Permissions
The App requires access to certain device features to enable assignment uploads and related functionalities.
These permissions include:
- Camera: To allow students to take photos or videos for assignment submissions.
- Microphone: To enable recording audio for assignments, if required by the school.
- Storage: To access and upload files (e.g., documents, images) from the device for
assignment submissions.
These permissions are requested only when necessary, and users can manage them through their device settings.
We do not access or store camera, microphone, or storage data beyond what is needed for assignment uploads.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information to:
- Authenticate user logins using school-provided credentials.

- Ensure the security and integrity of the App and ERP system.
3. How We Share Your Information
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share information in the
following cases:
- With Schools: Information, such as pickup person details, academic records, or
assignment submissions, is shared with the respective school to manage student-related activities.
- With Third-Party Service Providers: We use trusted third-party services (e.g., payment
gateways, cloud hosting providers) to process payments, store data (including assignment uploads), or
analyze usage. These providers are bound by confidentiality agreements and comply with applicable data
protection laws.
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or
government regulation, or to protect our rights, safety, or property.
- Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, user
information may be transferred as part of the transaction, with safeguards to ensure continued
protection.
4. Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect your information, including:
- Encryption of sensitive data (e.g., payment information, assignment uploads) during transmission.
- Secure storage of user data, including assignment files, on servers hosted by reputable cloud service
providers.
- Access controls to ensure only authorized personnel can access personal information.
- Regular security audits to identify and address vulnerabilities.
However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure. While we strive to protect your data, we
cannot guarantee absolute security.

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy
Policy or as required by law. For example:
- Academic and attendance records are retained as per the school’s data retention policies.

The App is designed for use by students, parents, and school administrators. We comply with applicable laws
regarding the collection of personal information from children under 13 (or equivalent age as per local
laws). Schools are responsible for obtaining parental consent where required and for providing login
credentials.

Our servers and third-party service providers may be located in different countries. We ensure that any
international data transfers comply with applicable data protection laws, such as by using standard
contractual clauses or other safeguards.
