how it works

Arte College students place anonymously a pin at a place in Almere where they feel unsafe. This shows the school where the problems are.

• Signing in: with a Google or Microsoft account.
• Placing pins: the collaboration decides which accounts or email domains may do so.
• You need to sign in to prevent misuse. We only use your name and email address from Microsoft or Google.

• You choose a place, one or more reasons and, depending on what the school requires, your gender, age group and class. You can also add a time and a short note.
• 15 minutes you can still edit or remove your pin. Each saved change gives you another 15 minutes. Opening or cancelling does not reset the timer.
• After that, it is final and by design the link to your account is then removed. This may happen later; no exact time is guaranteed yet. The place and reasons are kept. Teachers only see final pins. You can no longer see it yourself either.
• You may up to 3 pins place. Need more? Submit a request with a short reason. You can have one pending request at a time. After a No, you cannot apply again; if it is later changed to Yes, you can apply again.

• By design, the link between you and your pin is removed after 15 minutes, also for administrators. The unlinking may happen later; its exact timing is not yet guaranteed. The place and chosen reasons are kept.
• For your limit, your account keeps that you placed pins and how many. While you can edit a pin, it is linked to your account. That link may remain longer after that, until a later action in the system; how long is not guaranteed.
• A request for more pins is not anonymous: the teacher can see who is asking. It is never linked to your pins.

Please note: if you mention names or other identifying details, they could be traced back to you. To stay anonymous, do not include names or details that identify anyone.

• Visitors and students: an empty map, with only their own pins while they can still edit them. This way, no one is influenced by others.
• Teachers: all final pins, selected reasons and notes.
• Technical administrator (school) assigns teacher roles; the super administrator (creators) appoints technical administrators.

• For each pin: location, street name, selected reasons, gender, age group, class and, if provided, time and note.
• For each account: your sign-in details (name and email address), your pin limit and how many pins you have placed. Your class, gender and age from the welcome questions stay only in your own browser.
• The map and street names come from Google Maps. Sign-in is handled by Microsoft or Google.
• Visitor statistics: MCCS B.V. uses Lovable to track pages visited, referral sources, country, browser, operating system, device, visit duration, loading speed, errors and clicks. No cookies, no IP addresses, and no one is identified. Detailed data is kept for 90 days, daily summaries for one year. Lovable collects this for MCCS B.V.
