Security

Responsible disclosure policy

If you've found a security issue in School Console, please tell us. We respond within one business day.

Contact

Email security@schoolconsole.net. We monitor this mailbox during business hours (IST). Auto-acknowledge within 24 hours; first substantive response within 5 business days.

Scope

  • In scope: www.schoolconsole.net, our customer-facing portal, the mobile applications, and the public APIs.
  • Out of scope: staff personal sites, social-media accounts, third-party services we integrate with (please report those to their vendors).

Safe harbour

We will not pursue legal action against researchers who:

  • Make a good-faith effort to avoid privacy violations, destruction of data, and interruption of our service.
  • Only interact with accounts you own or with explicit permission of the account holder.
  • Don't exploit a finding beyond what's necessary to demonstrate it.
  • Give us a reasonable window — typically 90 days — to remediate before public disclosure.

What we ask in your report

  • A clear, reproducible description of the issue.
  • Proof-of-concept (screenshots, video, or short script).
  • Your assessment of impact.
  • How we should credit you, if at all.

What you can expect from us

  • An acknowledgement within 24 hours.
  • A substantive update within 5 business days.
  • A fix or mitigation plan, with timeline.
  • Credit (if you want it) on our acknowledgements page when the fix ships.
