Is Xaveit Safe For My Child?

We know how nervous parents can feel about putting their child’s information online. So here’s the plain truth: Xaveit was built with kids and parents in mind. Below we walk through the real things you’ll care about: who’s in control, what’s private by default, how sharing works, and what happens if anything goes wrong. No heavy legalese. Just what matters to families.

The quick answer

Yes — Xaveit is designed to keep students’ information private, to put parents and schools in control, and to use serious protections behind the scenes. The company’s privacy documents make clear it follows Singapore’s PDPA and the EU’s GDPR and applies special safeguards for children.

Parents and schools are the ones who decide

• Parents are in charge for younger kids

  If your child is under 13, they can’t use Xaveit without your verified permission. Teens aged 13–17 can sign up on their own, but parents are notified and age-appropriate limits apply. In short: Xaveit uses simple rules so the right adults are involved.

  
  

• If your school uses Xaveit Hub, the school usually calls the shots

  For school deployments, the school is typically the “data controller” — meaning it decides what gets uploaded and how it’s used. Xaveit is the secure platform and follows the school’s instructions. So for school-related questions, the school is normally the first place to ask.

  
  
  
  

Privacy by default — what you don’t have to worry about

• Profiles start private

  Nothing is public unless a student or parent explicitly chooses to share. Public features are opt-in only, so your child’s photos and work won’t be visible to strangers by default.

  
  

• Minimal collection

  Xaveit aims to collect only what’s needed to make the portfolio useful — name, date of birth, pieces of work, mentor endorsements — not sensitive things like national ID numbers or payment card details.

  
  
  
  

Real protections — the non-scary kind

You don’t need to know all the tech details to be reassured. Think of Xaveit like a locked filing cabinet with a logbook that records who looked inside:

• Bank-level protection for data. The company says it encrypts personal information and keeps passwords unreadable. Files are not left publicly accessible — they’re shared through short-lived secure links when you choose to share. The team also runs regular security checks to catch problems early.

  
  

• Access is limited and tracked. Only authorized staff see personal data when they need to (and every access is logged). Mentors, teachers or coaches only see students who have explicitly linked with them.

  
  

• Trusted partners for hosting and payments. Xaveit uses well-known cloud and payment providers and requires them to meet strict privacy rules. Importantly, Xaveit does not store your child’s card details.

  
  
  
  

Sharing is deliberate, temporary and reversible

Sharing a portfolio on Xaveit is not a one-size-fits-all “public dump.” It’s human, purposeful, and under your control.

• Temporary links

  When someone shares a portfolio, Xaveit creates a short-lived link (7 days is the default). The link expires automatically so access doesn’t remain open forever.

  
  

• Turn it off instantly 

  There’s an Active/Inactive switch so you can stop a link right away if you change your mind.

  
  

• Make a new link if you need to

  If a link gets into the wrong hands, you can regenerate a fresh link and the old one stops working.

  
  

• See who looked

  The share dialog shows when the link was created and how many times it was accessed, so you can check whether the recipient actually opened the portfolio.

  
  

• Files remain protected

  Even when shared, files are delivered through secure, short-lived URLs so they aren’t permanently exposed online.

In practice, this means sharing is a conscious choice: temporary, visible to you, and easy to undo.

What Xaveit promises it won’t do

Simple promises worth repeating:

• It does not sell or trade children’s personal data. 

  
  

• It does not hold payment card numbers. Payments are handled by a separate provider.

  
  

• It does not make damaging automated decisions about students. The Hub does not do automated, high-stakes profiling that affects children.

  
  
  
  

If something goes wrong

No system is risk-free, but Xaveit has a plan: investigate quickly, stop further harm, tell affected families and the regulators if required, and help parents take the right next steps. The company keeps records of incidents and uses them to improve. That kind of transparency is what you want if anything ever happens.

Why this matters

A good portfolio should make your child feel seen — not exposed. Xaveit’s approach is built around that idea: parents and schools are in control, sharing is deliberate and temporary, and the platform takes privacy seriously.
