History Quest
History Quest is committed to protecting the privacy of students and educators.
History Quest is designed to support compliance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) by collecting only the minimum student information necessary to provide its educational services and by limiting access to authorized educators.
To provide gameplay and track student progress, History Quest collects only the minimum information necessary to operate the platform. Student accounts require only a first name and last initial. No additional personal information is required.
Student information is used solely to: • Identify players within the game • Save game progress • Display scores and classroom progress to the student’s teacher
Student data is never sold, rented, or shared with third parties for advertising or marketing purposes.
Only the teacher associated with a classroom code, along with authorized administrators of History Quest for technical support and maintenance, can access student information.
History Quest does not collect sensitive personal information such as: • Full legal names • Birthdates • Home addresses • Phone numbers • Email addresses (for students) • Social Security numbers
Student information is stored securely and is used only to provide educational services within History Quest.
Teachers may request the deletion of classroom or student data at any time by contacting History Quest support.
By using History Quest, educators acknowledge that they are responsible for obtaining any permissions required by their school or district for the use of online educational tools.
