Worksheet Boss privacy policy

This policy covers Worksheet Boss at worksheetboss.com, published by HOLLINGSWORKS LLC (“Hollingsworks”, “we”, “us”), a small software studio in Michigan.

What we collect

Your account

You can sign in with Google or with an email address and password. We store your name (or the start of your email address if no name is available), email address, a unique account ID, when you first and last signed in, your plan and your chosen subscription. Firebase Authentication checks your password; we never see or store it.

If you try Worksheet Boss without signing up, we create an anonymous guest account to count your free trial worksheets.

Worksheets

• Generating a worksheet. The description you type (up to 2,000 characters), and the grade, subject, question type, difficulty and number of questions you pick, are sent to our server to create the worksheet. We don’t keep the request itself, only a count toward your monthly limit.
• Saving a worksheet. If you’re signed in and tap Save, we store the worksheet, its topic (first 200 characters), subject, grade and date in your account so you can open it again. You can delete saved worksheets at any time.
• Templates and preferences you save in the studio, your theme and your trial counter are kept in your browser’s local storage, not on our servers.

Payments

If you subscribe, Stripe handles checkout and billing. Stripe collects your payment details under Stripe’s privacy policy; we never see or store your full card number. We store your Stripe customer and subscription records (such as plan, status and billing period) to give you the right plan, and you can manage or cancel your subscription in Stripe’s billing portal.

Usage statistics

The home, studio and checkout pages use Google Analytics, which sets first-party cookies and records pages viewed, device and browser type, approximate location from your IP address, and how you got to the site. We use it to understand how teachers use Worksheet Boss. You can block it with Google’s opt-out browser add-on.

Technical data

Our servers record technical information such as error logs and your account ID when your plan changes, to run the service and fix problems. Like any website, our hosting provider sees your IP address and browser.

AI-generated content

Worksheet descriptions are sent to a third-party AI service, Google’s Gemini API, to write the worksheet. We don’t send your name, email address or account ID with these requests. Whatever you type in the description box is sent as written, so please don’t include students’ names or other personal information. Review generated worksheets before using them in class.

Cookies and browser storage

• Google Analytics cookies (_ga) on the home, studio and checkout pages.
• Stripe’s cookies on the checkout page, used for payments and fraud prevention.
• Firebase Authentication keeps you signed in using your browser’s storage.
• Local storage for your theme, templates and trial counter.

The site also loads fonts from Google Fonts and export tools (PDF and Word) from cdnjs, which receive your IP address like any web request. Exports are created in your browser.

Sharing

We don’t sell your personal information. We share it only with the service providers that make Worksheet Boss work (Google Firebase for sign-in, database and hosting; Google’s Gemini API for writing worksheets; Stripe for payments; Google Analytics for usage statistics), or when the law requires it.

How long we keep it

Your account and saved worksheets are kept until you delete them or ask us to delete your account. Monthly usage counts are kept with your account. Stripe keeps payment records as required for tax and accounting. Google Analytics keeps event data for no longer than 14 months.

Deleting your account

You can delete individual saved worksheets in your library. To delete your whole account and its data, email us from your account’s email address and we’ll delete it, including your Stripe customer record where the law allows, and confirm within 30 days. Cancel any subscription first in the billing portal so you aren’t charged again.

Children

Worksheet Boss is for teachers and other adults. It isn’t directed at children, and accounts are for people 18 and older. We don’t knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you think a child has given us personal information, email us and we’ll delete it.

Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example California, other U.S. states with privacy laws, the EEA or the UK), you may have the right to access, correct, export or delete your personal information, to object to processing, and to complain to your local data protection authority. Email us and we’ll answer within 30 days. We won’t treat you differently for using these rights.

Security

The site is served only over HTTPS. Database rules let only you read and change your own account and worksheets, and plan limits are enforced on our server.

Changes

If this policy changes, we’ll update this page and the date at the top, and email subscribers about significant changes.
