Quorum — Privacy Policy

In short: Quorum keeps your rosters and attendance on your iPhone or iPad. Ingleworks never receives them. The app makes no network requests; information leaves your device only when you export or back it up and choose where to send it.

1. What the app does with your information

Quorum stores what you enter about your classes and students on your device: terms, courses, sections, meeting times, and rooms; each student's name, preferred name, student ID, email, pronouns, phone, guardian name and phone, year, major, a note, and an optional photo; enrollment dates and status; and every attendance record, note, and change made to a confirmed record. Photos are reduced to a small size when you add them.

Scanning a class list. When you photograph or choose a picture of a printed list, the text is read on your device by Apple's text recognition. The picture itself is never saved — not to your photo library, not in the app, not as a temporary file. Only the names and details you review and import are kept.

Camera and photos. The camera is used only when you take a student's photo or scan a list. Choosing an existing picture goes through the system photo picker, so Quorum has no access to your photo library.

App Lock. If you turn on App Lock, iOS checks your face, fingerprint, or passcode and tells Quorum only whether it succeeded. Quorum never receives biometric data.

2. What leaves your device

Nothing, unless you send it. Quorum contains no networking code: no account, no sign-in, no Ingleworks server, no sync, no analytics, no telemetry, no crash reporting, no advertising, and no update check.

• Exports and backups. A CSV export or an .attendancebackup file leaves your device only when you share it from the share sheet, to the place you choose — Files, AirDrop, Mail, or any other app. From then on it is an ordinary file, protected by wherever you put it. Exports and backups contain student names and attendance, and backups also contain photos and notes, so share them with care and in line with your school's policies.
• Reminders. Take-attendance, unsubmitted-attendance, and evening-summary reminders are scheduled by your device and generated on it; nothing is pushed from a server, and no notification token exists. They show a section's name, meeting time, and room — never a student's name — because lock screens are public. The app icon badge is a number only.
• Device backups. Quorum keeps its data in the app's Documents folder, which iOS includes in your device's iCloud Backup or computer backup, so a lost or replaced device restores with its attendance intact. Those backups are governed by your own backup settings and Apple's privacy policy. Ingleworks never receives them.

3. What the app stores on your device

All of this stays on your device, inside the app's own storage, and none of it is sent anywhere.

• The attendance database — Quorum.store, in the app's Documents folder. Everything described in section 1, including student photos.
• Pre-restore backups — in PreRestoreBackups/, in the same folder. Made automatically before Replace Everything, so a wrong restore can be undone. The last 3 are kept.
• A preserved copy of the database — only if Quorum can't open its data and you choose Save a copy of the data file. It is saved beside the original as Quorum.store.corrupt-<timestamp>.
• Files being shared — an export or backup is written to the system's temporary folder while you share it. iOS clears it.
• Preferences — in the app's own settings storage: marking and swipe settings, reminder settings, whether App Lock is on, dismissed bell items, backup reminder timing, and a short list of problems from the most recent import in each section, such as photo file names that didn't match a student.
• Diagnostic logging — only if saving fails, and only to Apple's system log, with the error detail marked private so iOS redacts it. There is no log file, and nothing is sent anywhere.

4. What we collect

Nothing. Quorum has no account and no sign-in, and no analytics or crash-reporting service that sends data to us. We do not know who uses the app, what they teach, or who is in their classes.

If you install the app from the App Store, Apple provides us with aggregate, anonymous statistics about downloads and, if you have opted in to sharing with developers, aggregate crash reports. That data comes from Apple, does not identify you, and is governed by Apple's privacy policy.

5. Student information

The information in Quorum is entered by you, about your students, and it stays in your hands: Ingleworks does not receive, store, or have any means of reading it. How you keep and share student records — including what you export and who you send backups to — is governed by your school's policies and the law that applies to you.

6. Support correspondence

If you email support, we hold that email as described in the Ingleworks website privacy policy. Please don't attach backups, exports, or screenshots containing student information unless we have asked for one in order to reproduce a bug — and if you do, we delete it once the issue is resolved.

7. Children

Quorum is an app for teachers. It is not directed to children under 13, and collects no information from anyone. Information about students that a teacher enters stays on the teacher's device and never reaches us.

8. Your rights

Since the app sends us no personal information, there is nothing for us to disclose, correct, or delete. What the app keeps is on your device, and you can remove it:

• Edit any student's details, or delete a section (you type its name to confirm). Deleting a section removes its attendance permanently; Archive keeps it.
• Settings ▸ Data ▸ Restore from Backup… ▸ Replace Everything replaces all data with a backup's contents.
• Deleting the app removes its database, photos, pre-restore backups, and preferences. Copies in your device's iCloud or computer backups follow your backup settings.

Files you have already exported or shared are outside the app and yours to delete. For anything we hold from support email, write to support@ingleworks.co.

9. Changes

Changes will be posted here with a new date. If a future version of the app ever sends data anywhere — including syncing through your own iCloud account — this policy will say so before that version ships.
