LightPath is a learning app for homeschool families, now in a small family pilot. This page explains what we collect and why. It’s short because we collect as little as we can.

On the website

• If you join the waitlist: your email address and the date you joined. That’s all.
• The company that hosts the site keeps standard server logs, such as IP addresses and the pages requested, for a short time to keep the site running and secure.
• We don’t use analytics, advertising, tracking cookies or third-party scripts. Even the fonts are served from our own site. Signing in sets one cookie that keeps you signed in.

If your family is in the pilot

• Your account: your first name, email and password. The password and your parent PIN are stored scrambled, so no one can read them, including us.
• Your kids’ practice: their first names and each answer, mission and check-in, so the missions can adapt and you can see their progress. Also the notes you write to Blink.
• Help, reading checks and Blink’s notes: Google’s Gemini service writes a stuck child’s live help, checks a word a child reads aloud, and writes Blink’s evening note from the day’s practice. A child’s reading is a few seconds of audio, checked in memory and never stored.

How we use it

Only to run LightPath for your family: to adapt the missions, show you progress and write your evening note. We email waitlist members once, when there’s room.

Who can see it

Only your family’s signed-in parents and the people building LightPath. We never sell or share your information. It’s stored in the United States with the companies that run our website and database (Vercel and Neon), and processed by Google’s Gemini service as described above, only so they can provide those services.

Children

LightPath is set up and used under a parent’s account; children don’t create accounts or give us information themselves. The practice mission on the home page runs in your browser and saves nothing.

Your choices

To see, correct or delete what we have about you or your kids, email hello@lightpath.app and we’ll take care of it.

Changes

If this policy changes, we’ll update this page and the date at the top.
