Compliance and legal frameworks

Nabunam is designed to help institutions evaluate privacy, security, and governance requirements before deployment.

  • Law 25 (Quebec)Our governance and privacy practices take Quebec's Law 25 requirements into account.
  • PIPEDA (Canada)Canada's federal private-sector privacy law informs our practices outside Quebec.
  • GDPR and UK GDPRApplicable EU and UK obligations for relevant users are documented in our privacy policy.
  • CCPA / CPRA (California)Applicable California consumer rights are also covered in our privacy policy.
  • AccessibilityOur work aims to align with the CAN/ASC‑EN 301 549 ICT accessibility standard.
  • Procurement readinessNabunam is preparing to meet Quebec and Canadian public and institutional procurement requirements.

Full jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction detail is available in the regional annexes of our privacy policy.

AI and privacy

Nabunam uses artificial intelligence as an assistance tool — never as a substitute for teachers' professional judgment.

Humans stay in control

AI proposes a starting point; the teacher decides, adjusts, and validates the final content.

Careful data handling

Content submitted for inference is not used for advertising purposes, nor reused to train models without an appropriate legal basis or contract.

Canada-first processing

AI features prioritize processing hosted in Canada whenever possible.

Vendor transparency

Nabunam publishes the categories of vendors and subprocessors that may process personal information, along with their regions and transfer mechanisms.
