This article describes the data Pear Deck needs to operate, how that data is stored, and the parties with whom it is shared. For specific rights and responsibilities, see the [Privacy Page](https://www.peardeck.com/privacy/), [Terms of Service](https://github.com/peardeck/policies/blob/master/terms-of-service.md), and [Privacy Policy](https://github.com/peardeck/policies/blob/master/privacy-policy.md). Send any questions to [privacy@peardeck.com](mailto:privacy@peardeck.com). ## Names, Email Addresses, and Passwords * Pear Deck never asks for your password when you sign in with a Google or Microsoft 365 account. Your password cannot be viewed by any Pear Deck staff member. * Pear Deck stores names and email addresses of teachers and students to provide reports and visualizations to teachers. Pear Deck never displays student information to other students or to anyone besides the student's teacher. Only the teacher who gave a presentation and collected responses directly from students may see those student names or responses. * Google or Microsoft manages and updates all personally identifiable information. Pear Deck will never ask teachers or students to enter that information manually. * Schools that have decided not to identify students by name in their email addresses will have that policy automatically enforced by Pear Deck. Pear Deck does not store student grades. * Only the CTO of Pear Deck has the ability to manually review any of this data, and must ask permission of each teacher before doing so. This review occurs only to resolve issues with the operation of the application. ## Presentation Files * Presentation decks are stored with three third parties: Google, Microsoft, and Firebase. Images from presentations are stored with Amazon Web Services. The decks themselves contain no student or teacher information collected by Pear Deck. * While presentations are stored on Google Drive or OneDrive, no Pear Deck staff member can view your presentation unless you manually share the file. After a teacher launches a presentation, only employees with special security authorization may review data, and they must ask permission of each teacher before doing so. * Pear Deck identifies individual usage of different features to improve the application. Pear Deck may use third-party services such as [segment.io](http://segment.io/) and Google for this purpose. This information is never shared with users or other parties. ## Third-Party Terms of Service The following services help store and analyze teacher and student data: * **Google Apps for Education** (including Google Drive): [http://www.google.com/apps/intl/en/terms/education\_terms.html](http://www.google.com/apps/intl/en/terms/education_terms.html) * **Firebase**: [https://www.firebase.com/terms/terms-of-service.html](https://www.firebase.com/terms/terms-of-service.html) * **Amazon Web Services**: [http://aws.amazon.com/agreement/](http://aws.amazon.com/agreement/) * **Google Analytics**: [http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/us.html](http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/us.html) * **Totango**: [https://www.totango.com/terms-of-use](https://www.totango.com/terms-of-use) * **Microsoft**: [https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/legal/intellectualproperty/copyright/default.aspx](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/legal/intellectualproperty/copyright/default.aspx) ## Resources Review the full privacy policy governing teacher and student data.
