# RealLives Simulation Privacy Policy

### 1. Our Privacy Commitment

RealLives Foundation is committed to protecting users — especially students — and designs its systems to minimize the collection and processing of personal information.

RealLives operates under two models:

1. **Core Simulation Access Model** – minimal or no personal data collection.
2. **Institutional Deployment Model (e.g., RCMI or school-managed implementation)** – limited student profile information may be maintained within the school-controlled environment for academic administration purposes.

In all cases:

* RealLives does not sell personal data.
* RealLives does not use personal data for advertising.
* RealLives does not monetize user data.
* RealLives does not engage in cross-institutional data sharing.

***

### 2. Core Simulation Model – Minimal Data Processing

Under standard access use:

RealLives does not collect or process:

* Biometric data
* Behavioral tracking data for marketing
* Advertising identifiers
* Location tracking data
* Cross-platform tracking information

Where individual login credentials are required, only the minimum necessary identification data is used to enable secure access.

***

### 3. Institutional Deployment (School-Controlled Profiles)

In certain school or university implementations (including RCMI-based deployments), student profile information may be maintained **within the institutional database environment**.

Such information may include:

* Student name
* Institutional identifier (e.g., roll number or student ID assigned by the school)
* Class or course enrollment information
* Academic progress within the simulation

Important safeguards:

* The educational institution acts as the primary data controller.
* Profile data is stored within the school’s authorized environment.
* Data is accessible only to authorized school administrators and teachers.
* RealLives Foundation does not access, analyze, or commercially exploit this data beyond providing technical functionality.
* No cross-school data sharing occurs.
* No aggregation across institutions occurs.

Purpose of Processing:

* Academic administration
* Classroom facilitation
* Progress monitoring within the institution

Retention:

* Determined by the institution’s internal data retention policies
* Data may be deleted upon institutional request or contract termination

### 4. No Commercial Third-Party Sharing

* Sell personal data
* Share student data with marketing partners
