Children first, in writing.

What we hold, what we show, what we never do, and who to write to. Plain language, no small print.

  1. CONSENT
    No child’s photo without the school’s recorded authorisation

    A photo goes on a screen only when the school has recorded its authorisation for it, given under the parent-consent warranty in our agreement. The record names who at the school authorised it. Without it, the celebration still shows, without the photo.

  2. DATA
    We hold what a celebration needs, and nothing else

    The school profile, the screens, and the names and grades the office enters to show a birthday or an achievement. No marks, no attendance, no behaviour records, no contact details on any screen.

  3. SHARING
    Never sold, never shared

    Student information is never sold, never shared with third parties, and never used for advertising. A take-home card goes to the child’s class teacher, to send home with the child; it goes to no one outside the school.

  4. TRACKING
    No per-child tracking

    We do not measure individual children. There are no engagement scores, no dashboards about a child, no profiles. What we count is what ran on which screen, so the school can see the record.

  5. ACCURACY
    Checked against named sources, and corrected openly

    Every fact on a screen is checked before it is published. A school can flag any line; corrected text goes back through the same check, and we keep a record of what ran on each screen each day.

  6. CONTROL
    The school decides what appears

    Nothing about the school or its children appears that the office did not add. The office can take any item off the wall.

  7. ACCESS
    Calm on purpose

    Screens respect reduced-motion settings, show nothing that flashes, and carry no sound.

  8. CONTACT
    One address for any question

    Privacy, consent, a correction, something to remove: write to hello@thediscoverywall.com and a person answers.
