Child Safety Policy

1. Safety Commitment

MakerHub is committed to creating a school-managed environment that prioritizes child safety, dignity, and privacy.

Platform workflows are designed for supervised educational use with role restrictions and administrative controls.

2. Safety by Design Controls

MakerHub applies product and policy controls to reduce risk and support early intervention.

• - Role-based access controls for students, teachers, and administrators.
• - School-governed class membership and assignment scoping.
• - Restricted exposure of student records outside authorized educational context.
• - Support for safety module completion and classroom supervision workflows.

3. Prohibited Child Harm Activity

MakerHub prohibits any content or behavior involving child exploitation, grooming, coercion, harassment, or abuse.

Any suspected child sexual abuse material, exploitation attempt, or threat of harm is treated as a critical incident.

4. Reporting and Escalation

Users must report child safety concerns immediately to school administration and MakerHub support.

For immediate danger, contact emergency services and school safety authorities first.

• - Primary safety contact: support@makerhub.app
• - Include relevant account identifiers, class context, and timestamps when reporting.
• - Do not continue engagement with suspicious accounts while awaiting review.

5. Incident Response

MakerHub may take immediate protective action, including access restrictions, content takedown, and session invalidation, when child safety risk is suspected.

Where legally required, MakerHub will cooperate with schools, regulators, and law enforcement in incident investigation and evidence preservation.

6. School and District Responsibilities

Institutions are responsible for account governance, supervision policies, parental notices, and mandatory reporting obligations in their jurisdiction.

Schools should maintain internal escalation playbooks for digital and physical safety incidents linked to project activity.

7. Data Handling for Safety Events

Safety-related logs and report artifacts may be retained as necessary for investigation, legal compliance, and institutional follow-up.

Access to sensitive safety records is restricted to authorized personnel with legitimate need.

8. Training and Continuous Improvement

MakerHub periodically reviews child safety controls and updates response procedures based on risk trends, legal developments, and school feedback.

Schools are encouraged to provide recurring digital safety and reporting training for both staff and students.

9. Policy Updates

This policy may be updated to address legal requirements, safety standards, or platform changes. Updated versions include a revised effective date.
