This Privacy Policy explains how iMathMate collects, uses, stores, shares, and protects personal information when you use the iMathMate mobile app, website, web app, student dashboard, parent dashboard, learning tools, AI tutor, quizzes, practice features, camera/photo upload features, and related services.

"iMathMate," "we," "our," or "us" means the operator of iMathMate. "Services" means the iMathMate app, website, AI math tutor, learning tools, quizzes, dashboards, and related services. "User," "you," or "your" means a student, parent, guardian, teacher, school representative, or website visitor using iMathMate.

Section 01
Who We Are

iMathMate is an AI-powered math learning platform that helps students understand math concepts instead of only receiving final answers. Students may use iMathMate to submit math problems through typed input, photos, screenshots, worksheets, PDFs, or chat, and receive guided explanations, practice questions, quizzes, and learning recommendations.

Important Notice for Children, Students, Parents, and Schools

iMathMate may be used by children, teenagers, and school-age students. Because students' privacy is especially important, we apply additional protections to student information.

Where required by law, students below the applicable age must use iMathMate only with permission from a parent, legal guardian, school, or authorized educational institution.

  • We do not use student personal information for third-party targeted advertising
  • We do not sell student personal information
  • We do not allow third-party AI providers to use identifiable student personal information to train their general AI models, unless clearly disclosed and legally permitted with required consent

If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has used iMathMate without required consent, contact us at Privacy@imathmate.com.

5.2 Information Collected Automatically

Through app analytics, website analytics, cookies, device logs, crash reporting, security monitoring, and server logs.

5.3 Information from Parents, Guardians, Teachers, or Schools

A parent, guardian, teacher, tutor, or school may provide student information to create or manage a learning account, monitor progress, assign activities, or support learning.

5.4 Information from Service Providers

Section 06
How We Use Personal Information
6.1 To Provide iMathMate Services

Create and manage accounts, process math problems and images, generate step-by-step explanations, provide AI tutor responses, save learning history, track quiz and practice progress, recommend topics, build personalized learning roadmaps, and provide customer support.

6.2 To Personalize Learning

Understand weak and strong areas, recommend next topics, suggest prerequisite concepts, adjust explanation difficulty, provide practice based on grade or curriculum, track improvement over time, reduce repeated mistakes, and provide parent or teacher insights where available.

6.3 To Improve iMathMate

Improve AI explanation quality, OCR accuracy, quizzes and practice flows, app speed and reliability, safety and abuse detection, and develop new educational features. Where possible, we use aggregated, anonymized, or de-identified data for product improvement.

Send account-related messages, password resets, security alerts, support responses, subscription updates, parental consent notices, service announcements, and marketing messages only where allowed by law and your preferences.

6.5–6.7 Payments, Safety, and Legal Compliance

Section 07
Legal Bases for Processing Personal Information

Where laws such as the GDPR, UK GDPR, or similar data protection laws apply, we rely on one or more of the following legal bases:

  • Contract: To provide iMathMate Services you have requested, such as account access, AI explanations, quizzes, and subscriptions
  • Consent: Where required, such as for parental consent for children, optional marketing emails, non-essential cookies, and certain analytics tools
  • Legitimate Interests: To improve iMathMate, secure accounts, prevent fraud, debug errors, and support users — not overriding your rights or child privacy interests
  • Legal Obligation: To comply with legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, consumer protection, or child protection obligations
  • Vital Interests: In rare cases, to protect the vital interests or safety of a user or another person
  • Public Interest / School Authorization: Where iMathMate is used by a school or educational institution
Section 08
AI, Automated Processing, and Learning Recommendations

iMathMate uses artificial intelligence and educational logic to help students understand math.

AI may be used to read and interpret math problems, generate step-by-step explanations, answer follow-up questions, identify possible weak concepts, recommend prerequisite topics, suggest personalized practice, adapt explanations to a student's level, and help parents, teachers, or schools understand learning progress.

iMathMate's AI features are educational tools. They should not be treated as a replacement for teachers, parents, guardians, or professional educational judgment. iMathMate does not use automated processing to make decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects on users.

Learning recommendations are based on activity within iMathMate — quiz results, incorrect answers, practice performance, topic history, and user-selected goals. Users, parents, guardians, teachers, or schools may contact us to ask about learning profile data, correct inaccurate information, request deletion, or object to certain processing.

Section 09
Use of Uploaded Math Content

When you upload a photo, screenshot, worksheet, PDF, or typed math problem, we use it to read the problem, extract text, formulas, graphs, or diagrams, generate explanations, provide follow-up help, save problem history (if enabled), and improve learning recommendations.

  • We do not claim ownership of your uploaded educational content
  • You are responsible for ensuring you have the right to upload any content you submit
  • Do not upload confidential school records, personal identity documents, private messages, or content belonging to someone else without permission
