Privacy policy
Who we are
One Education is a UK tutoring platform for parents, students, tutors, and internal administrators. For this draft policy, One Education is the data controller for platform account data, booking records, tutor applications, and service communications.
You can contact us about privacy at hello@oneeducation.co.uk.
What data we collect
We collect account information including names, email addresses, passwords in hashed form, parent and student relationships, a child's name and year group, and tutor application details such as university, subjects, year groups, onboarding progress, DBS review status, and availability preferences.
We may process booking records, selected subjects, session times, payment references, session summaries, support messages, and calendar connection data. Payment card data is handled by Stripe and is not stored by One Education.
How we use your data
We use personal data to create and manage accounts, match families with tutors, process bookings, send service emails, show availability, operate tutor onboarding, maintain platform safety, support payments, and improve the reliability of the service.
We also use data to comply with legal obligations, investigate platform misuse, respond to support requests, and keep parents, students, tutors, and administrators informed about sessions.
Who we share data with
We share only what is needed with service providers that help operate One Education. These include Stripe for payments, Resend for transactional emails, Google for calendar connection and invites, Fireflies.ai for session recording and summaries where enabled, and a DBS provider for tutor safeguarding checks.
We may also share information where required by law, to enforce our terms, or to protect the safety of students, parents, tutors, and the platform.
How long we keep data
We keep account data while an account remains active and for a reasonable period afterwards in case it is needed for legal, safety, accounting, dispute, or safeguarding reasons. Booking and payment records may be kept for financial reporting and compliance.
Tutor application and DBS review records are kept only as long as needed for onboarding, safeguarding, and platform assurance, unless a longer retention period is required by law.
