Terms of Service - Classroom Token Hub

Quick Summary

What this means: By using Classroom Token Hub, you agree to use the app responsibly for educational purposes. Keep your login information safe, be respectful to others, and follow your school’s rules. The app is provided as-is for educational use, and we cannot be held responsible if something goes wrong. We may need to suspend accounts that violate these terms.

For students: Your teacher chose this app for your class. If you have questions, talk to your teacher.

For teachers: This app is free for educational use but cannot be used for commercial purposes.

1. Accepting These Terms

When you create an account and use Classroom Token Hub (the “Service”), you agree to follow these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use the app.

2. What Is Classroom Token Hub?

Classroom Token Hub is an educational web application designed to help students learn about financial literacy through a simulated classroom economy. Teachers can use it to manage virtual currency, track student participation, and create engaging lessons about money management.

3. Your Account Responsibilities

We worked hard to design this app to provide a good experience while protecting your privacy. Maintenance access is limited to system upkeep, and sensitive fields such as names and notes remain encrypted so maintainers cannot read them.

Depending on your account type, you may need a password, PIN, passphrase, or two-factor authentication to sign in and protect important account actions. Keep these credentials private.

If you lose access to your account, your teacher can issue a recovery code. Account recovery uses only your class join code and the recovery code; no personal information such as your name is required during recovery.

You can protect yourself by:

Keep your credentials private: Do not share your PIN, passphrase, password, or authentication codes with anyone.
You are responsible for your account: Any activity on your account is your responsibility, so keep your login information secure.
Report security issues immediately: If someone else accesses your account or you notice suspicious activity, let your teacher know right away.

4. How to Use the App Responsibly

We trust you to use Classroom Token Hub appropriately. Please don't:

Break any laws or school rules while using the app
Pretend to be someone else or lie about who you are
Try to hack, disrupt, or interfere with the app or other users' accounts
Attempt to access parts of the system you're not supposed to see

Even though the people working on this app can't see your personal information, they can still block your account from accessing the app if they believe your actions are harmful to everyone else.
