Privacy notice

A plain-language description of the data paths implemented by the current application.

Last updated: 25 August 2026

Using public simulations

Public chemistry pages can be opened without creating an account. Display, language, motion and graphics preferences may be stored in the browser so the interface remains usable on the next visit.

Accounts and learning data

When the account service is enabled, the server can store an email address, a protected password representation, role, saved items, progress, classroom work and simulation state. The exact stored fields are controlled by the application database schema.

Operational and learning analytics

When the API is connected, the application can record limited events such as a simulation being opened or completed, along with device category, locale and a pseudonymous session hash. It is not intended to collect chemistry answers for advertising.

Current limits

Retention periods, a privacy contact and jurisdiction-specific rights wording require deployment-owner decisions and legal review. Those details are not invented here. Do not enter sensitive personal information into free-text fields.
