Privacy Notice
Last updated: January 2024
Who we are
Vexlore Campus is an AI-powered academic tool provided to students and faculty by your college or university. It is operated in accordance with applicable federal law, including the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), 20 U.S.C. § 1232g.
What data we collect
We collect your college email address, display name, and role (student or instructor) when you sign in. We log which AI tools you use, when you use them, and the length of your input and response. We do not store the actual text of your AI conversations.
How we use your data
Usage logs are used solely to provide instructors and administrators with aggregate activity reports, to monitor for misuse, and to improve the service. We do not sell, share, or use your data for advertising purposes.
FERPA rights
Vexlore Campus operates as a "school official" under FERPA, using student data only for educational purposes on behalf of your institution. Eligible students (18 or older, or attending a postsecondary institution) have the right to inspect, review, and request correction of their education records. Contact your institution's Registrar to exercise these rights.
Data retention
Usage logs are automatically deleted after 365 days. Your account information is retained for as long as you have an active relationship with your institution. You may request deletion of your account by contacting your institution's technology office.
Data security
All data is stored in Supabase with encryption at rest and in transit (TLS 1.2+). Access is restricted to authenticated users and institutional administrators. API keys and secrets are never exposed to the client.
Third-party services
AI responses are generated by Anthropic's Claude API. Your input text is sent to Anthropic for processing and is subject to Anthropic's usage policies. Anthropic does not use API inputs to train their models. Authentication is handled by Google OAuth and Microsoft Azure AD via NextAuth.js. No other third parties receive your personal data.
