School & Educator Terms

Last Updated: May 21, 2026

These School & Educator Terms supplement the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy when teachers, school staff, administrators, districts, or other educational institutions use The Advocate Ally for professional purposes.

1. Scope

The Advocate Ally provides review, preparation, and informational tools for educational documents. These tools may help surface questions about document clarity, implementation, and compliance risk, but they do not make final educational, legal, eligibility, placement, disciplinary, or service decisions.

2. Authorized Users and Records

You may upload or submit student-related records only when you are authorized to do so by your role, the educational agency or institution that controls the records, and any applicable policy, agreement, or legal requirement. Access to a record is not permission to use it for every purpose.

  • Use only records reasonably necessary for the approved review purpose.
  • Do not upload records from a personal or unsanctioned context when your school requires a different workflow.
  • Do not submit records for students outside your authorized professional responsibility.

3. Student Data Use

We process uploaded student-related records to provide the requested Service, maintain security, support authorized users, and meet legal or contractual obligations. We do not sell student data, use identifiable student data submitted under a school or educator use case for targeted advertising, or use it for unrelated commercial profiling.

When a school or district requires a written agreement for student-data use, that agreement must be completed before the covered deployment begins. A pilot request, sales conversation, or funnel submission does not itself authorize transfer of student education records.

4. Institutional Agreements

An educational agency or institution may require an order form, data protection addendum, school agreement, security review, or other procurement terms. If a signed written agreement with The Advocate Ally addresses the same subject and conflicts with these supplemental terms, the signed written agreement controls for that institutional use.

5. No Student-Directed Deployment by Default

The school and teacher funnels are intended for adult professional contacts. Do not direct children to create accounts, upload records, or provide personal information through the Services unless The Advocate Ally has expressly approved that student-facing use and the required notices, permissions, and agreements are in place.

6. Professional Responsibility

Educators and institutions remain responsible for verifying output against official records, exercising professional judgment, following IEP and 504 procedures, communicating accurately with families, and obtaining legal or compliance review when needed.

7. Privacy Requests and Security

Student-data requests should be routed through the authorized school or institutional contact when required by the governing agreement or policy. Contact privacy@theadvocateally.com for privacy, deletion, access, or security questions related to school and educator use.
