AI Ethics Statement

Last Updated: April 2026 | ST4S Responsible AI Framework

1. Our AI Ethics Principles

Qwizflow is committed to the responsible and ethical use of Artificial Intelligence in education. Our AI practices are guided by five core principles:

  • Educational Benefit

    AI is used exclusively to enhance learning outcomes. Every AI feature is designed to help students understand, practice, and retain knowledge.

  • Transparency

    All AI-generated content is clearly labelled so students always know when they are interacting with AI. We never disguise AI outputs as human-created content.

  • Privacy First

    Student data is never used to train AI models. All personal information is scrubbed before processing. AI consent is session-based and never persisted without explicit action.

  • Fairness & Inclusion

    Our AI features are designed to be accessible and equitable for all students regardless of background, ability, or learning style.

  • Safety

    Strict content safety filters block harmful, explicit, or dangerous material. Prompt injection protections prevent misuse of AI features.

2. How AI is Used in Qwizflow

Qwizflow uses AI to power the following educational features, each of which requires explicit user consent before activation:

  • AI Quiz Generation

    Generates personalised quizzes from uploaded study materials and curriculum topics.

  • Socratic AI Tutor

    Guides students through concepts using questioning techniques rather than giving direct answers.

  • Homework Helper Chat

    Provides step-by-step hints and scaffolding for homework problems without revealing answers directly.

  • Study Guide Generation

    Creates structured study guides from uploaded documents and learning paths.

  • Adaptive Learning Paths

    Adjusts difficulty and topic sequencing based on quiz performance.

  • Debate Arena & Roleplay

    AI-powered educational simulations for critical thinking and creative writing practice.

  • Story Writer

    Collaborative creative writing with AI, where students and AI take turns building a narrative.

  • AI Avatar Creator

    Generates personalised learning companion avatars and accessories.

  • Answer Explanations

    Provides detailed explanations for quiz answers to support understanding.

3. What AI is NOT Used For

Qwizflow explicitly prohibits the following uses of AI:

  • Student surveillance or behavioural monitoring
  • Biometric identification or facial recognition
  • Automated administrative decision-making (grading, disciplinary actions, enrolment)
  • Profiling students for commercial purposes
  • Predictive analytics about student behaviour or outcomes
  • Social scoring or ranking students against each other using AI
4. AI Providers & Data Processing

Qwizflow uses the following AI providers under strict data processing agreements:

  • Google Gemini 2.0 Flash

    Content generation (quizzes, study guides, tutoring). Private API calls only — student data is never used for model training.

  • Azure AI Vision

    Document text extraction (OCR) from uploaded study materials. No user-controllable prompts — input-only processing.

PII Scrubbing

Before any content is sent to AI providers, a PII scrubbing layer removes names, addresses, and contact information. The AI only processes educational content, never student identities.

No Model Training

Student data and uploaded documents are processed via private API calls and are NEVER used to train public AI models by Google or Microsoft. Training data opt-out is enabled by default.

5. AI Ethics Officer

Qwizflow maintains an AI Ethics Officer responsible for:

  • Overseeing the ethical implementation of AI features
  • Reviewing AI safety configurations and prompt injection defences
  • Responding to concerns about AI behaviour or outputs
  • Ensuring compliance with the ST4S framework and Australian Privacy Principles
  • Conducting quarterly compliance audits

The AI Ethics Officer can be reached through the in-app feedback portal or by contacting our Data Protection Officer. All concerns are reviewed within 5 business days.

6. Reporting Concerns

  • Use the in-app feedback button to report the issue
  • Contact the AI Ethics Officer via the feedback portal
  • Revoke AI consent at any time through the AI Consent Centre
