How EASY handles student data. Last updated: April 2026.
Clarity For Growth (ABN 51 567 672 559) provides the EASY software platform to Australian schools for NCCD compliance and student support planning.
Privacy contact: privacy@clarity4growth.com.au
EASY stores information that schools enter about their students, including:
We also collect basic login information (email address, login timestamps) for staff who use the platform.
We do not collect information that isn't directly entered by school staff. There is no tracking, no analytics, no advertising, and no third-party marketing data collection.
All data is stored on Google Cloud servers in Sydney, Australia (australia-southeast1). This is enforced at the code level — the platform physically cannot store or process data outside Australia.
There are no exceptions to this. Backups, file attachments, AI processing, and audit logs all stay in Australia.
Access is controlled by the school's leadership through a role-based permission system with nine levels:
Clarity For Growth staff do not access individual student records during normal operations. We only access data when a school explicitly requests technical support, and all such access is logged.
EASY includes optional AI features that help staff draft notes, suggest goals, and check NCCD documentation completeness. When these features are used:
AI features can be disabled entirely by the school's leadership at any time.
NCCD student records are retained for up to 30 years after a student leaves the school, in line with Australian education record-keeping requirements. After that period, records are permanently deleted.
Schools can request earlier deletion of any student's records at any time via a written request from the principal.
Parents and carers have the right to:
Requests should be directed to the school in the first instance, as the school is the data controller. Clarity For Growth is the data processor, acting on the school's instructions.
In the event of a personal data breach, we will notify the affected school within 24 hours of becoming aware, and cooperate with the school's obligations under the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme of the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).
We use the following infrastructure providers. No other third parties have access to school data.
| Provider | Purpose | Location |
|---|---|---|
| Google Cloud Platform | Hosting, database, file storage, backups | Sydney, Australia |
| Google Vertex AI | AI features (optional, names removed) | Sydney, Australia |
| Sentry (optional) | Error monitoring (anonymised, no student data) | EU |
There is no Google Analytics, no Facebook pixel, no advertising tracking, and no data sold to or shared with any marketing provider.
EASY is built to comply with:
Material changes will be communicated to school principals at least 30 days before they take effect.
