Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 2, 2026

1. Introduction

Teach Argument LLC (“TeachArgument,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the TeachArgument platform at teachargument.com. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, store, and protect your personal information when you use our Service.

We are committed to protecting the privacy of educators and their data. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use your content to train AI models.

2. Information We Collect

Information you provide directly:

  • Account information: Name, email address, and password when you create an account
  • Payment information: Billing details processed securely through Stripe. We do not store your full credit card number on our servers.
  • Input content: Text and other content you submit for lesson bundle generation
  • Generated content: The lesson bundles and handouts created through the Service
  • Communications: Information you provide when contacting support or participating in community features

Information collected automatically:

  • Usage data: Pages visited, features used, generation counts, and interaction patterns
  • Device information: Browser type, operating system, screen resolution, and device identifiers
  • Log data: IP address, access times, referring URLs, and error logs
  • Cookies: We use essential cookies for authentication and session management. See Section 8 for details.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

  • Provide, maintain, and improve the Service
  • Process your lesson bundle generation requests
  • Process payments and manage your subscription
  • Send transactional communications (account confirmations, billing receipts, service updates)
  • Respond to your support requests
  • Monitor for abuse, fraud, and violations of our Terms of Service
  • Analyze aggregate usage patterns to improve the Service (we do not analyze individual content)
  • Comply with legal obligations

We do not use your Input Content or Generated Content to train, fine-tune, or improve AI models. Your educational materials remain yours.

4. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We share information only in the following circumstances:

  • Service providers: We use trusted third parties to operate the Service, including Supabase (database and authentication), Stripe (payment processing), Anthropic (AI content generation), Vercel (hosting), and Google Analytics (anonymized usage analytics — see Section 8). These providers access your data only as needed to perform their services and are bound by their own privacy policies.
  • Community features: If you choose to share a lesson bundle publicly, the bundle content and your display name will be visible to other users. Sharing is always opt-in.
  • Legal requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, or court order, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.
  • Business transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of the transaction. We will notify you of any such change.

5. Data Storage and Security

Your data is stored in the United States using Supabase (built on PostgreSQL and hosted on AWS). We implement industry-standard security measures including:

  • Encryption in transit (TLS/HTTPS) and at rest
  • Row-level security policies on database tables
  • Secure authentication with hashed passwords
  • Regular security monitoring and updates

While we take reasonable measures to protect your data, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

6. Data Retention

We retain your account information and generated content for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will delete your personal information and generated content within 30 days, except where retention is required by law or for legitimate business purposes (such as fraud prevention or financial record-keeping).

Anonymized, aggregated data that cannot be used to identify you may be retained indefinitely for analytics purposes.

7. Your Rights and Choices

You have the right to:

  • Access your data: Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you
  • Update your data: Correct inaccurate information through your account settings
  • Delete your data: Request deletion of your account and associated data
  • Export your data: Download your generated content in Word or PDF format at any time
  • Opt out of marketing: Unsubscribe from promotional emails at any time using the link in the email

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@teachargument.com. We will respond within 30 days.

8. Cookies and Analytics

We use the following types of cookies and tracking technologies:

  • Essential cookies: Required for authentication, session management, and core functionality. These cannot be disabled.
  • Analytics (Google Analytics 4): We use Google Analytics 4 (“GA4”) to understand how visitors find and use TeachArgument so we can improve the product and our marketing. GA4 collects pageviews, approximate location at the country/region/city level (derived from IP address, then anonymized — we do not store full IP addresses), device and browser type, referring URL, and certain product events such as account signups, subscription purchases, sample-bundle requests, and lesson-bundle generations. We do not collect or share names, email addresses, or other directly identifying information through GA4.

Consent and opt-out. We use Google Consent Mode v2: analytics tracking is disabled by default until you accept it via the cookie consent banner shown on your first visit. You can opt out at any time by:

  • Declining the consent banner the first time you visit the Service
  • Clearing your browser's site data for app.teachargument.com (this re-shows the banner so you can change your choice)
  • Installing the official Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on from Google
  • Enabling your browser's tracking-prevention or “Do Not Track” settings

Google's use of any data collected through GA4 is governed by the Google Privacy Policy.

We do not use advertising cookies, do not run remarketing or retargeting campaigns, and do not sell cookie or analytics data to third parties. You can also manage cookie preferences through your browser settings.

9. Children's Privacy

TeachArgument is designed for use by educators, not students. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If we learn that we have collected information from a child under 13, we will delete it promptly. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at support@teachargument.com.

Educators are responsible for ensuring that any student data shared with or through the Service complies with applicable laws, including FERPA and COPPA.

10. AI-Specific Disclosures

The Service uses artificial intelligence (provided by Anthropic) to generate educational content. Here is how your data interacts with AI:

  • Your Input Content is sent to our AI provider solely for the purpose of generating your requested materials
  • We do not use your Input Content or Generated Content to train AI models
  • AI-generated content may be imperfect and should be reviewed by an educator before classroom use
  • We do not send your personal account information (name, email, payment details) to AI providers

11. California Privacy Rights (CCPA)

If you are a California resident, you have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act, including the right to know what personal information we collect, the right to delete it, and the right to opt out of the sale of personal information. We do not sell personal information. To exercise your CCPA rights, contact us at support@teachargument.com.

12. International Users

The Service is operated in the United States. If you are accessing the Service from outside the United States, your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States. By using the Service, you consent to this transfer.

13. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you via email or through a notice on the Service. Your continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
