Hello ThinkStation team,

Being a parent(s), we find this platform very unique, and definitely an endeavour we wish our kids to continue throughout this unprecedented time.

Just one question in relation to 'privacy'. How does ThinkStation manage and resolve privacy/security breaches that could make families vulnerable? Furthermore, what methods have ThinkStation currently set in place to address issues at the root?

Thank you,

Hey Ezra!

          Thank you for the kind words! 
In regards to your question -- We take Privacy and particularly child security as the precedent in our product. We aim to have an active community of students -- and for our private BETA we made sure to include redundancies in our backend, key words-addresses-emails-phone numbers to be automatically blocked from chat.

As we continually build out our platform -- we wish to create a safe environment and an engaging one. Our streams will not operate without a live moderator in place to ensure the chat is secure and safe.

Hope this addresses your concerns!
