Privacy Policy
Collegeboard.AI is a college-admissions assistant app that supports chat-based guidance and optional document/image uploads (for OCR-based extraction). This policy explains what we collect, how we use it, and your choices.
Information we collect
- Account information: name, email, and password (for login/signup).
- Authentication tokens: a “remember token” used to keep you signed in.
- Chat content: messages you send and the assistant responses stored to provide conversation history.
- Uploads (optional): images you upload for OCR processing (and derived extracted text).
- Usage & technical data: basic request logs, timestamps, and error diagnostics for reliability and security.
How we use information
- Provide core features (login, chat, saved items, OCR upload).
- Improve reliability (debugging, performance monitoring, abuse prevention).
- Maintain security (authentication, fraud and misuse detection).
How we share information
We do not sell personal information. We may share limited data only to provide the service:
- AI processing: chat prompts and related context may be sent to an AI model provider through our server to generate responses.
- External data sources: the app may query public sources such as:
- U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard API (for college data).
- Wikipedia APIs (for public college summaries and images).
- Legal & safety: if required by law or to protect users and the service from abuse.
Data retention
- We retain account data while your account is active.
- Chat history and uploads are retained to provide features (history, saved content) until you delete them or delete your account.
- We may retain limited logs for security and operational purposes for a reasonable period.
Security
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards designed to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we work to reduce risk.

- You can request deletion of your account and associated data (see “Data Deletion”).
