Nueces Innovation Studio™ is intended to support educational project organization and presentation. Students should follow their school's science fair rules and review work with a parent, guardian, teacher, or educator.

The platform is not intended to replace teacher instruction, school requirements, science fair rules, or adult guidance.

Because Nueces Innovation Studio™ may be used by students, children's privacy is important to us.

Children under 13 should use the platform only with permission and supervision from a parent, guardian, teacher, school, or authorized educator.

If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without appropriate consent, we will take reasonable steps to delete that information.

A parent or guardian may contact us to request review or deletion of information associated with their child.

Users may enter science fair project content into the platform, including notes, observations, project sections, images, or data tables. Users should avoid entering sensitive personal information, private family information, medical information, or information that is not needed for a science fair project.

We may share information only when necessary to:

• Provide and operate the platform
• Use trusted service providers that help host, maintain, or support the platform
• Comply with legal obligations
• Protect the safety, rights, or security of users, the platform, or others
• Respond to authorized requests from parents, guardians, schools, or educators, when appropriate

We do not sell personal information.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to help protect information. However, no online platform can guarantee complete security.

We retain information only as long as reasonably necessary to provide the platform, support users, improve the service, comply with legal obligations, or resolve disputes.

Users, parents, guardians, schools, or educators may contact us to request deletion of information, where appropriate.

Nueces Innovation Studio™ may use third-party tools or service providers for hosting, analytics, authentication, storage, email, or other platform functions. These providers may process information as needed to support the platform.

We may update this Privacy Policy as the platform develops. If changes are made, the effective date will be updated.
