A note for parents (COPPA)

BrightRubric is designed to be used by children without collecting their personal information. This notice explains our approach so you can make an informed choice.

What a child provides

Nothing personal. A student picks a grade and writes practice essays. They are never asked for a name, email, age, photo, or any identifying detail, and the app is built to discourage including such details in essays. A student is represented only by a random token on their device.

What the parent provides

If you create a family account, we collect your email (to log in and, if you opt in, to send a weekly progress summary) and, for each child, a nickname and grade that you choose.

Essays and AI scoring

Practice essays are stored so your child can revise them, and their text is sent to our AI provider (Anthropic) to generate scores and feedback. Essays are never sold or shared, and we run no advertising or tracking.

Not a monitoring or safety service

BrightRubric is a practice tool, not a monitoring or safety service. We do not review your child's essays or send you alerts about what they write. If an essay reads as very heavy, the app may gently encourage your child to talk to a trusted adult — and sometimes that will happen for purely fictional stories.

Your controls

From your dashboard you can review your child's essays and feedback, unlink a device, delete a child profile, or delete your whole account — which permanently removes the associated essays and progress. Anonymous, unlinked practice data is deleted automatically after 180 days.
