Archive and Deletion Policy

Teacher and student data coming into the DoodleLearning platform is controlled by the school, whose responsibility it is to archive students and teachers who are no longer at the school.

Home users can delete their accounts by following the steps here or by contacting our customer support team.

All data related to users who are not paying subscribers and have been inactive for a period of six months are deleted. This is an automated process.

Storage of personal data

All customer data related to the DoodleLearning platform is stored in AWS located in the London Area including our backup servers. We follow strict rules in accordance with GDPR and use technology which is designed to protect personal data from being accidentally lost or used without permission.

Encryption of personal data
All data at rest in databases is encrypted with AES-256, which meets the stated FIPS 140-2 requirements. Keys are managed through industry and platform standard key management mechanisms (Microsoft TDE). We use TLS 1.2 during transport
