Privacy Policy

Last updated: 10 June 2026

Who we are

ibacalao is a free tool that gives practice feedback on IB Biology Internal Assessment (IA) drafts, based on the official 2024 IB rubric. It is an independent project and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO).

What we collect

  • Your email address — only if you choose to provide it to unlock additional reviews. Providing your email is optional.
  • Your IP address — used temporarily to enforce daily review limits and prevent abuse. It is automatically deleted after 48 hours, and is stored only as an irreversible hash, never as a raw address.
  • Optional feedback — if you submit a review or suggestion through the feedback form, we store the message you wrote.

Optional Meta analytics

If you accept analytics in our consent prompt, we use the Meta Pixel to record basic events such as page visits. Meta may receive technical information such as your IP address, browser information and the page visited. We do not load the Meta Pixel if you decline. We do not send IA document contents, email addresses or other sensitive information to Meta through the Pixel.

Your IA document

The text or PDF you submit for feedback is not stored on our servers. It is sent to our AI provider (Anthropic, the makers of Claude) solely to generate your feedback, and is then discarded. We do not keep a copy of your document, and we never use it to train any AI model.

How we use your email

If you give us your email, we may use it to tell you about new features, product updates, and to occasionally ask for your feedback. We will never sell your email or share it with third parties for their marketing. Every email we send includes a way to unsubscribe, and you can opt out at any time.

If you are under 16

If you are under 16 (or the age of digital consent in your country), please get permission from a parent or guardian before submitting your email address or accepting optional analytics. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal data without consent, contact us at the address below and we will delete it.

Your rights

You can ask us to show you, correct, or delete any personal data we hold about you at any time. To do so, just email us. We will respond promptly.
