Always safe

Teacher-moderated with COPPA compliance built in from day one.

Content review
All posts reviewed before going live

Safety isn't a feature. It's the entire point.

Every layer of SparK was designed to protect young people — not as an afterthought, but as the foundation everything else is built on.

COPPA compliance

Age-gated registration with teacher approval for students under 13.

Content moderation queue

Posts auto-hide after three reports before a teacher reviews them.

XSS & input sanitization

All user input sanitized. BBCode gives rich formatting without raw HTML.

Brute force protection

Automatic account lockout after repeated failed logins. Rate limiting on every route.

CSRF protection

Every form submission verified with a CSRF token.

Bcrypt password hashing

Passwords are never stored in plain text — bcrypt with appropriate work factors.

Role-based access control

Teacher and student roles enforced across every route.

Session timeout & QR tokens

Sessions expire automatically. QR login tokens are revocable by teachers.

COPPA compliant · No ads · No data selling · Closed platform

Everything a classroom needs, nothing it doesn't

SparK combines a social learning platform with a full classroom management system — designed for kids, trusted by teachers.
