Built for the data you're trusted with.
You're handling minors' personal information. Security isn't a feature we bolt on at the end — it's the foundation YouGuard is built on, from encryption to access control to DepEd-aligned reporting.
Data Privacy Act compliance
YouGuard is built around the Philippines' Data Privacy Act of 2012 (RA 10173). Student and guardian data is collected and processed only for legitimate school purposes, and never sold or shared with third parties.
- Aligned with RA 10173 principles
- Purpose-limited data collection
- No selling or third-party sharing of student data
Encryption at rest and in transit
Every connection to YouGuard is encrypted with TLS, and student records are encrypted at rest. Sensitive data stays protected whether it's moving across the network or sitting in the database.
- TLS for all traffic in transit
- Encryption at rest for stored records
- Secrets and credentials kept out of application code
Role-based access & least privilege
Admins, teachers, registrars, guardians and students each see only what their role requires. Permissions follow the principle of least privilege, so no one has broader access than their job needs.
- Granular, role-scoped permissions
- Least-privilege by default
- Every action tied to an accountable user
DepEd-aligned records
Reporting follows the Department of Education's formats out of the box — SF2, SF4 and learner reference numbers — so compliance is built into the data model, not bolted on afterward.
- SF2 / SF4 formats out of the box
- LRN-linked student records
- Export-ready official reports
Hosting & data residency
YouGuard runs on secure infrastructure with regular automated backups, so your school's data stays available and recoverable. Sensitive learner records held on behalf of public schools are stored within Philippine jurisdiction, in line with Executive Order No. 119 (s. 2026).
- Regular automated backups
- Recovery procedures for data loss
- Sensitive records stored within Philippine jurisdiction (EO 119, s. 2026)
Audit logs & accountability
Sensitive actions are recorded in audit logs, giving administrators a clear, reviewable trail of who did what and when — essential for accountability with minors' data.
- Audit trail for sensitive actions
- Reviewable by administrators
- Supports investigations and compliance reviews
Standards we hold ourselves to.
