Monsha simplifies your teaching workflow while responsibly protecting your data. We follow clear privacy practices designed to align with FERPA, COPPA, GDPR, and US state privacy laws.
We built Monsha with a clear, responsible approach to how data is handled. Whether it’s your contact details, teaching preferences, or classroom materials, we process that information carefully and with purpose.
If you upload student information, we act as a school official with a legitimate educational interest. We use student data only to provide, maintain, or improve the Services. Parents, guardians, or eligible students may review or request deletion of student data by contacting us.
For students under 13, it’s up to schools or teachers to obtain verifiable parental consent before sharing data. We support this process where needed, and never use student data for advertising.
If you're in the EU or UK, you have rights over your personal data, including access, correction, deletion, or restriction. We process data based on lawful grounds, and use approved safeguards like Standard Contractual Clauses for international transfers.
Educators in California, Colorado, Virginia, and other states have the right to access, update, or delete their data.
We also avoid processing sensitive data unless necessary and permitted. And we never sell personal information.
We take a security-first approach to protect the personal data and classroom materials you trust us with. Here’s how we keep your information safe:
Monsha runs on reputable cloud providers that follow industry-standard security practices. We also work with subprocessors under strict data protection agreements.
All personal information is encrypted both in transit and at rest, in line with current data security standards.
We routinely monitor and review our systems to identify and resolve potential risks quickly. Security logs, access controls, and technical safeguards are in place to prevent unauthorised access.
Monsha was built for educators, so our data practices reflect how you work.
Most of the data we collect - like your teaching preferences, school name, or subjects taught - is provided directly by you. We use it to personalise your experience and recommend relevant tools and resources.
You can review, update, or request deletion of your personal information at any time by emailing us at [email protected]. We respond to verified requests within 45 days, though in practice, it's typically 1–3 days—always in line with applicable privacy laws.
If you upload student information, we process it only to deliver or improve our services. We act as a school official (FERPA) and an operator (COPPA). Student data is encrypted, access is role-based, and we retain it only while the educational relationship exists.
Monsha includes thoughtful privacy-focused features designed to make your teaching experience simpler and safer
We only collect the information you actively provide, such as your contact details, school name, and teaching preferences, along with limited usage and device information needed to run the platform.
You can quickly update your information or request complete deletion. We act promptly and transparently on these requests.
If your school or district requires a formal data agreement, we offer a no-cost DPA on request. It restates our FERPA and COPPA commitments, lists our subprocessors, outlines our security practices, and details our data deletion and breach notification procedures.
Monsha uses AI to enhance your teaching workflow, always with data responsibility in mind.
Our tools like lesson planners, resource generators, and assessment creators rely on the inputs you provide to generate tailored classroom content. This processing is handled in line with our privacy commitments and security safeguards.
We only share your data with AI providers (like OpenAI, Midjourney, and others) to generate the outputs you request. These providers are contractually bound to handle your information securely and are not permitted to use it for training or any other secondary purposes.
If you'd like to opt out of specific AI tools or limit how your data is used with them, email us at [email protected]. We’ll help you adjust your preferences.
