Privacy: student names never leave your browser
How ClassSplit handles a class list: student names are balanced, saved and printed in your browser, and nothing you type is ever sent anywhere.
Last updated 28 September 2026
What you type about students
A class list is children's names next to notes about learning and behaviour. ClassSplit needs a name only to tell one student from another, so any label works: a first name and initial, a nickname or a number if you prefer. The optional fields are coarse on purpose: a gender letter, reading and math bands 1 to 4, and three yes or no flags (behaviour support, English learner, support). It never asks for a birth date, a photo, an address, a parent's details, a student number or any health information, and it has no field where one would go. Notes are free text; keep them short and practical.
What stays on your device
The balancing runs in your browser, in a background worker on this page. There is no server side to this site: it is a set of static files. Nothing you paste, build, move or print is transmitted anywhere, and there are no analytics on the class builder.
Your work is written to your browser's own local storage, under keys beginning with classsplit. and nowhere else. It belongs to one browser on one device: it does not follow you to another computer, it is not backed up by us, and nobody else can read it. Clearing site data for this site removes it permanently. Use the backup button on the Drafts tab to keep a copy as a file; that file is saved wherever you choose and is yours to keep or delete. Treat it like any other file of student information.
No accounts
There is no sign up, no sign in, no email capture and no password. Every page, including the class builder and every printout, works without identifying yourself in any way.
What is collected
No account, no advertising identifiers, and nothing you enter. Standard web server logs kept by the static host may record the request for a page, its time and a network address, in the ordinary way any web server records a request.
Purchases
If paid plans are offered, a purchase is handled by RevenueCat and Stripe, who receive what a payment needs, such as your email address and card, and never your class lists. An anonymous purchase id is stored in this browser so your access is recognised here.
Typeface
Text is set in Schibsted Grotesk by Bakken and Baeck for Schibsted Media, under the SIL Open Font License 1.1. The font file is served from this site, so no font service sees your visit. The licence sits beside it at /fonts/OFL.txt.
Cookies
ClassSplit sets no cookies of its own and carries no advertising or cross site tracking scripts.
Your school's rules
Keeping the data on your device is a design choice, not a compliance certificate. ClassSplit makes no claim that using it satisfies any law or policy about student records. Follow your school's rules about where student information may be kept, and about the device you use.
Children
The site is a planning tool for teachers and school leaders and is not directed at children.
Changes
If this policy changes in a way that affects what is collected, the change will appear on this page.
