Effective Date: 25 Feb 2026
Last Updated: 25 Feb 2026

Introduction

SAZO respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information of schools, administrators, teachers, students, parents, and staff who use our web and mobile applications (collectively referred to as the “Platform”).

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, process, and protect information when you access or use SAZO’s services. By using our Platform, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

Information We Collect

SAZO collects information necessary to provide a secure and efficient school management system. The type of data collected depends on your role within the institution.

We may collect personal information such as full name, email address, phone number, date of birth, gender, address, profile photo, identification details, academic records, attendance data, performance metrics, homework submissions, examination results, and parent or guardian information.

For institutional management purposes, we may also collect school-related data including school name, academic session details, class and subject assignments, admission records, transport allocations, and staff data.

In addition to user-provided data, we automatically collect certain technical information such as device type, operating system, IP address, browser type, application version, usage logs, and diagnostic data to improve performance and security.

Application Permissions

To provide core functionality, the SAZO mobile application may request certain device permissions. These permissions are strictly used for legitimate operational purposes and are not misused for tracking or advertising.

If your device allows, SAZO may request access to:

  • Camera Access – Used for uploading profile photos, submitting documents, scanning QR codes (if enabled), or attaching images to homework or communication modules.
  • Storage Access – Used to upload or download documents, academic materials, certificates, homework attachments, and reports.
  • Push Notifications – Used to send real-time alerts related to attendance updates, exam notifications, announcements, approvals, homework reminders, and institutional messages.
  • Location Access (if enabled by institution) – May be used for transport tracking, geofencing attendance, or bus route monitoring where applicable.
  • Microphone Access (if applicable) – May be used for audio attachments in communication modules.

Users can manage or disable these permissions through their device settings at any time.

How We Use the Information

The information collected through SAZO is used to operate and enhance the platform. We use personal and institutional data to manage academic activities, track attendance, conduct examinations, generate performance analytics, manage admissions, monitor transport operations, facilitate communication, and generate reports for institutional decision-making.

We may also use collected data to improve system functionality, troubleshoot issues, enhance user experience, and maintain platform security.

We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information to third parties.

Role-Based Data Access

SAZO operates on a structured role-based access control system. Each user is granted access strictly according to their assigned role within the institution.

Administrators may manage institutional configurations.
Principals may monitor academic and operational data.
Teachers may manage classroom-level data.
Students and parents may access their own academic information.

This controlled access ensures data privacy and prevents unauthorized data exposure.

Data Sharing and Disclosure

SAZO may share information only in limited and controlled circumstances. Information may be shared with the respective school administration for operational purposes. We may also engage trusted third-party service providers for hosting, analytics, system maintenance, and cloud infrastructure support.

These service providers are contractually obligated to maintain confidentiality and data security.

We may disclose information when required by applicable laws, court orders, or regulatory authorities.

We do not share student or institutional data with advertisers or marketing agencies.

Data Storage and Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data. These measures include encrypted data transmission (HTTPS), secure cloud hosting infrastructure, controlled authentication systems, role-based permissions, monitoring logs, and periodic system updates.

While we maintain strong safeguards, no digital platform can guarantee absolute security. However, we continuously work to maintain high levels of protection against unauthorized access, data breaches, or misuse.

Data Retention

SAZO retains data for as long as the associated school maintains an active account or as required by educational, regulatory, or legal obligations. Upon termination of service, institutional data may be deleted or anonymized in accordance with applicable laws and contractual agreements.

Schools may request data export or deletion subject to applicable compliance requirements.

Children’s Privacy

SAZO is designed for use by educational institutions. Student information is collected under the authority and supervision of the respective school administration.

We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from minors without institutional authorization. Parents or guardians who wish to review or request modifications to student data should contact their school administration.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance functionality, improve performance, analyze traffic patterns, and maintain secure user sessions. Users may control cookie preferences through browser settings.

International Data Processing

If data is processed outside your country of residence, we ensure that appropriate safeguards and compliance standards are in place in accordance with applicable data protection regulations.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

SAZO reserves the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page along with an updated effective date. Continued use of the platform following policy updates constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
