We understand the time, effort and creativity that go into every lecture. Your teaching materials are important, and we're committed to protecting them while supporting accessible learning for all students.
Our app Messenger Pigeon is built with both faculty privacy and student accessibility in mind, providing tools that ensure students get the support they need, without compromising instructor rights or academic integrity.
Learning thrives when everyone feels supported. From faculty and administrators to the students they teach. That’s why we hold ourselves to the highest standards, meeting ISO 27001 and HIPAA compliance to keep our tools fair, secure, and accessible for all.
All lectures, materials, and recordings belong to you or your institution. Habitat Learn never claims ownership or usage rights.
Recordings are securely stored, accessible only to approved users, and never shared beyond accessibility support.
We are a data processor, not a data owner. We provide tools to support institutions & students while following privacy standards.
Recordings can be deleted at any time upon request. Soon, administrators will be able to manage and delete recordings directly.
Our AI tools never use your recordings to train or improve models. They exist solely to enhance accessibility and user experience.
From data handling to system updates, we’re open about how everything works. You’ll always know what’s collected, who can access it, and how it’s used.
Your or your institution retain full ownership of their intellectual property, including all lecture content and recordings.
Recordings are used only for accessibility services, such as note-taking or transcription, for approved students.
Only the assigned student can access the recordings. Institutional administrators may review (not download) recordings used for note-taking solely to verify accuracy and quality. When applicable, a professional note taker may also access the recording, but only for the duration of the note-taking task. Institutional administrators have the ability to manage permissions as needed.
Yes. Faculty or administrators can request deletion. In an upcoming update, admins will have direct control to manage and delete recordings.
No, recordings are never used for training AI or shared externally. Messenger Pigeon’s AI tools are designed to respect and protect academic data.
We use encryption at rest and in transit, with access restricted to authorized personnel under confidentiality agreements. Our systems meet HIPAA and regional data protection standards.
Recordings can be deleted automatically at the end of the term or earlier upon request, depending on your institution’s policy.
Data is stored securely in regional data centers that comply with local privacy laws in Canada, the USA, and the UK.
We are real people with a mission to not only design products that are accessible to all,
but to make sure that you get help and advice when you need it.
