🔏 Privacy Policy

Nik Soft Designs LLC | Effective Date: 1 June 2024 | Last Updated: 1 March 2025

TL;DR: Your data stays on YOUR device. We don't collect or store personal information on servers.

1. Data Collection Overview

Nik Teacher does NOT collect, transmit or store any personal data on external servers.

All user data — including learning progress, quiz results, session history, wellness notes, schedule and settings — is stored exclusively in JSON files and a SQLite database on your local device (typically C:\Users\YourName\).

2. AI API Calls

When generating questions or AI Tutor responses, the app sends the prompt text to third-party AI APIs:

  • • Google Gemini
  • • Groq
  • • OpenRouter
  • • HuggingFace
  • • Together AI
  • • Cohere
  • • Mistral AI
  • • Cloudflare Workers AI
  • • DeepSeek

Important: These prompts contain only educational content (subject, class level, topic) — NO personal identifiers (name, email, age, location) are ever included in API requests.

3. Email Configuration

If you configure SMTP credentials in the Parent Dashboard, the app can send progress-report emails. These credentials are stored only in environment variables on your local machine. The app never stores or transmits your email password to Nik Soft Designs LLC servers.

4. Telemetry & Analytics

The app contains NO telemetry, crash-reporting, usage analytics or advertising SDKs. Your usage is completely private.

5. Children's Privacy

Nik Teacher is designed for children. No child's name, image, voice recording or any other personal data leaves the device. Speech recognition is processed locally by the Windows Speech API or SpeechRecognition library — audio is not sent to our servers.

6. Data Deletion

To delete all app data, simply delete the following files from your home directory:

  • • ~/.nik_teacher_*.json
  • • ~/nik_teacher.db (or the path configured in shared.py)
  • • ~/.nik_teacher_license.json

7. Third-Party APIs

Please review the privacy policies of the AI providers whose keys you configure. Nik Soft Designs LLC is not responsible for how third-party AI providers handle prompt data.

8. Security Measures

  • Local SQLite database with optional PIN protection
  • License file encrypted with device-specific key
  • No data transmission without explicit user action (API calls only)
  • HTTPS enforced when connecting to external services

9. Privacy Contact
