Terms of Use
Hop On Academy
Welcome to Hop On Academy. By using our platform, you agree to the following conditions:
1. Scope and Description of Service
Hop On provides a platform that uses Artificial Intelligence to support international academic preparation (SAT, Essays, Mentorship). The service is a support tool and does not guarantee admission to educational institutions, which depends exclusively on the student's performance and third-party criteria.
2. Use of AI Characters (Mrs Brighta, Gritty, Smartle, Wan, Syncie)
Advisory Nature
Our AIs are virtual assistants. The guidance provided is based on statistical patterns and databases built by the Hop On team.
Authorship and Integrity
Hop On prohibits the use of AI for the full automated generation of essays with the intent of academic fraud. The student is the sole author and is solely responsible for the accuracy of information submitted to universities.
3. Subscriptions and Payments
Access to Hop On Academy and subsequent plans is subject to prior payment.
Cancellation: Users may cancel renewal at any time, retaining access until the end of the contracted period.
4. User Responsibilities
- •Provide truthful and up-to-date information.
- •Not use the platform for unlawful purposes or in ways that violate intellectual property rights.
- •Keep your access password confidential.
Privacy Policy
Hop On Academy
Your privacy is our priority. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your data.
1. Data Collection
We collect data necessary to personalize your journey:
- •Registration Data: Name, email, age, country, city of residence, and educational background.
- •Performance Data: Practice test results, error history, and progress on learning tracks.
- •Narrative Data: Personal and extracurricular information provided to assist with writing.
2. Artificial Intelligence and Data Processing
- •Your data is processed by language models (such as Google's Gemini) to generate personalized feedback.
- •Anonymization: Whenever possible, data sent to third-party APIs is anonymized.
- •No Training: Your personal data is not used to train global third-party models without your explicit consent.
3. Protection of Minors
As we serve students in the pre-university stage (often under 18), Hop On commits to:
- •Collect only the minimum necessary data.
- •Require legal guardian consent as required by LGPD/COPPA.
4. Your Rights (LGPD)
You have the right to:
- •Access, correct, or delete your personal data.
- •Revoke processing consent at any time.
- •Export your data in a readable format.
5. Google Calendar Scheduling
Teachers connect Google Calendar separately from signing in to Hop On. The requested permissions allow Hop On to read the calendar list, check free/busy availability, and view or manage events on calendars the teacher owns. The teacher chooses an owned calendar for lessons.
Hop On uses busy time intervals to avoid conflicts and creates lesson events with the student as an invited attendee. We process the lesson time, participants and meeting link to support booking, cancellation and synchronization. Students receive calendar invitations at their Hop On account email; they do not need to authorize access to their own calendar. Their calendar provider and invitation settings determine how invitations appear.
Google access and refresh tokens are encrypted on the server. They are used only for the connected scheduling service. Disconnecting in the teacher portal removes the stored credentials and stops Hop On access; it also requests revocation at Google. Teachers can additionally remove Hop On access in their Google Account permissions.
Disconnecting does not delete existing Google events or the internal history of classes, paid validation sessions, credits and participant notices. That history remains to support booked services and account records. Contact support@hopon.academy for questions about access or deletion of your data.
6. Security
We restrict access according to account roles and keep Google Calendar access and refresh tokens encrypted on the server. These credentials are not sent to students or stored in browser-accessible data.
