Ace Chemicals (acechemicalscase.com) is an educational platform developed for use in accounting and auditing courses at the University of Kentucky. This privacy policy explains what information we collect, how it is used, and your rights regarding that information.

This site is operated by Dr. Jason Rasso solely for academic purposes. It is not a commercial product and does not engage in advertising or data monetization of any kind.

When you use this site, the following information may be collected:

• Your name — entered by you when starting a case simulation
• Your class code — entered by you to join a course session
• Case activity data — your responses, decisions, and progress within simulations
• AI interaction transcripts — your conversations with AI-driven characters in the simulations
• Session metadata — timestamps and engagement duration for grading purposes

We do not collect passwords, financial information, government IDs, or any sensitive personal data beyond what is listed above.

Your information is used exclusively for the following academic purposes:

• Generating your individualized case variables and simulation experience
• Evaluating your performance for course grading
• Allowing your instructor to review session logs and audit results

Your data is never sold, shared with third parties, or used for marketing.

Some case simulations use Google Gemini, an AI service provided by Google LLC, to power interactive characters. Your typed inputs during these interactions are sent to Google's API for processing. Google's use of this data is governed by the Google Privacy Policy. We do not store raw AI prompts beyond what is captured in your session transcript.

Session data is stored in a secure PostgreSQL database hosted by Neon (neon.tech), a SOC 2 compliant cloud database provider. Data is retained for the duration of the academic term in which it was generated and may be deleted upon course completion.

Only the course instructor (Dr. Jason Rasso) has access to student session logs via a password-protected faculty portal. Students can only see their own in-session results.

You have the right to:

• Request a copy of the data associated with your name and class code
• Request deletion of your data after the course concludes
• Ask questions about how your data is used

To exercise any of these rights, contact Dr. Jason Rasso at jason.rasso@uky.edu.
