AI Disclosure
Effective: TBD
Peaks Education uses third-party AI models to generate explanations,
quizzes, flashcards, summaries, and study suggestions. This disclosure
explains what we send, who processes it, and what to expect.
Models we use
| Provider | Models | Used for |
|---|---|---|
| Gemini family | Tutoring chat, study planning, schedule and syllabus extraction, grading, and material preparation |
We may swap or upgrade models periodically. Functionality and the
categories of data sent stay the same.
What we send
For tutoring requests we send:
- Your message or question.
- Relevant context from materials you've added to your library
(syllabi, notes, prior questions).
- A system prompt describing the tutoring task and academic-integrity
rules.
For schedule extraction we send:
- The image, PDF, or text you uploaded.
For syllabus parsing we send:
- The uploaded syllabus file content (text extracted from PDF/DOCX).
We do not send your password, payment details, or unrelated personal
information.
What providers do with that data
Peaks uses the paid Gemini API through a Cloud Billing-enabled production
project. Under Google's current
Paid Services terms, Google does not
use prompts or responses from paid services to improve its products.
Google may retain content for a limited period solely for abuse prevention and
required legal or regulatory disclosures. That retention is governed by
Google's terms and data-processing addendum.
Limitations of AI output
- AI output can be wrong, outdated, or made-up.
- AI output may produce content that conflicts with your instructor
or your school's guidelines.
- AI output is not a substitute for course instruction or for doing
your own work.
You are responsible for verifying anything you rely on for academic
work.
Your choices
- You can avoid AI features entirely by not opening tutoring chat,
not running quizzes, and not using auto-extraction. The non-AI
features (manual notes, library, schedule view) remain available.
- If your school requires an "AI off" mode for your account, contact
support@peakseducation.com.
Changes
We will post material changes here with a new effective date.
