For tutors
Sub-processors
Every third party that touches data on our behalf, where they are, and what they do.
Version 26 August 2026
These are the third parties that process personal data on our behalf to run MyTutoringHome. Each is bound by a data processing agreement, may act only on our instructions, and may not use the data for its own purposes.
This page is Annex III of the Data Processing Agreement. Section 6 of that agreement governs how it changes: 30 days' notice before we add or replace anyone, and a right to object.
Current sub-processors
| Provider | What it does | Data it touches | Where | Transfer mechanism |

| Google Ireland Ltd (Firebase / Google Cloud) | Database, authentication and file storage | All tutor and student records; email addresses and password hashes; any photo a tutor uploads to their public page | Firestore in the eur3 multi-region — Belgium and the Netherlands; Storage in the EU | EU storage; where support touches data outside the EEA, Standard Contractual Clauses and the EU–US Data Privacy Framework |
| Vercel Inc. | Application hosting, edge network, scheduled jobs | Data in transit; request and error logs | United States, with EU edge regions | EU–US Data Privacy Framework and Standard Contractual Clauses |
| Resend, Inc. | Transactional email — verification, portal invitations, lesson reminders, receipts, and enquiries sent through a tutor's public page | Recipient name and email address, and the contents of those emails | United States | Standard Contractual Clauses |
| Google Ireland Ltd (Google Analytics 4) | Website analytics on marketing pages only — loaded solely if you accept analytics cookies | Pseudonymous identifier, pages viewed, approximate location, device and browser | EU, with onward transfer to the United States | Consent, plus Standard Contractual Clauses and the EU–US Data Privacy Framework |
Independent controllers
These are not sub-processors. They decide their own purposes and are responsible to you directly under their own terms and privacy policies.
| Provider | Role |
|---|---|
| Stripe Payments Europe, Ltd. (Ireland) and its affiliates | Payment processing, identity verification and anti-money-laundering checks on the tutor's own connected account. Governed by the Stripe Connected Account Agreement and Stripe's privacy policy |
| Google Ireland Ltd (Google Sign-In) | Authenticating tutors who choose to sign in with Google, under Google's own terms |
| The video provider whose meeting link a tutor pastes onto a lesson — Google Meet, Zoom, Microsoft Teams or another | We do not host, join or record lessons. That call is governed by the provider's terms |
Tutor landing pages
A tutor may publish a page about themselves at /tutor/their-name. Two things follow from that, and neither adds a third party:
- What the tutor writes is published because they chose to publish it. Their name, photo and description are public the moment they switch the page on, and private again the moment they switch it off. Nothing is shown before they publish.
- Enquiries sent through that page belong to the tutor. We forward the message to the address on their account and keep no copy. The tutor is the controller of it, exactly as they are for their students — see the Data Processing Agreement.
What is deliberately absent
- No advertising or marketing-automation platforms. No ad network, no data broker, no retargeting pixel — on any page.
- No third-party scripts on authenticated pages. Analytics exists on the marketing site only.
- No externally hosted fonts. Typefaces are served from our own domain, so no request reaches Google Fonts.
- No AI or machine-learning vendor. No tutor or student data is sent to a model provider, for inference or for training.
- No customer-support, session-replay or heatmap tool with access to your data. Support runs over email.
