## Who we are

Skwela makes school management software for Philippine schools. Built in Cebu, Philippines. This policy covers this website. Each school's own Skwela has its own privacy notice, issued by that school.

## What we collect

Only what you type into the Request a demo form:

- your full name and your role at the school
- the school's name and its number of students (as a range)
- your email address, your mobile number, or both
- the message you choose to add, if any
- the date and time you sent it, and a one-way hash of your internet address, used only to stop repeated automated requests

## Why we collect it

To reply to your demo request, arrange a demo, and talk with you about setting up Skwela for your school. We do not sell it, share it for advertising, or add you to a mailing list.

We process it on the basis of your consent, which you give by ticking the consent box on the form. You can withdraw it at any time (see Your rights).

## Who handles it for us

Your demo request is stored in our database and sent to us by email. The companies that host this website, the database and the email service process it only on our instructions, to run those services.

Nothing you send here reaches any school's Skwela. This website shares no database and no logins with any school.

## How long we keep it

We keep a demo request for as long as we are talking with you, and delete it 2 years after our last exchange unless your school becomes a Skwela customer. If you ask us to delete it sooner, we will.

## Your rights

Under the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (RA 10173), you have the right to:

- be informed about how your personal data is processed
- access the personal data we hold about you
- object to its processing and withdraw your consent
- have it corrected if it is wrong or incomplete
- have it erased or blocked
- receive a copy in a portable format
- be indemnified for damages caused by inaccurate, unlawfully obtained or unauthorised use of your personal data
- file a complaint with the National Privacy Commission (privacy.gov.ph)

## How we protect it

Demo requests travel over encrypted connections and are readable only by the people who reply to them. The form is protected against automated submissions.

## Contact

For anything about your personal data, including the rights above: Write to us at info@skwela.app, or send a message through the Request a demo form and say it is about your personal data.
