SketchIO
COPPA and FERPA aligned

Your data, handled plainly.

No legalese games. Here is exactly what SketchIO stores, what it never touches, and why. If a line is unclear, that is our fault, so tell us.

What we store, and what we do not

We store this

  • The link between a SketchIO assignment and its Classroom courseId and courseWorkId.
  • The Sketchpad account of the teacher who created it.

We never store this

  • Drawings or any student work. Those live in the uploader's own Drive.
  • Rosters, course content, or grades.
  • Google access tokens after the short connection window.

Every Google permission, and why

See your Google Classroom courses classroom.courses.readonly

lists your courses so you can pick which one to create an assignment in.

read only
Teacher scopes classroom.rosters.readonly

shows student names next to submissions in the grading dialog.

read only
Manage coursework you create classroom.coursework.students

write
Save files you upload drive.file

when you opt to attach the open Sketchpad drawing as assignment instructions, uploads that JPEG to your own Drive so Classroom can reference it as a Drive-file material.

Where the drawings actually live

Every drawing, whether a student turn-in or a teacher prompt, is stored in the uploader's own Google Drive. SketchIO does not keep a copy. Delete it in Drive and it is gone, on your terms.
