Security/Confidentiality To maintain security and confidentiality, all documentation captured in the app remains within the app until sent to SmartTeach / Tadpoles®. Any photos or videos taken within the app will not mix with your personal camera roll. Files captured using the app cannot be sent anywhere other than to SmartTeach / Tadpoles®. Who Can Use This App This app is designed for use with the SmartTeach platform. This app is available for Teaching Strategies customers that have both a SmartTeach and a Tadpoles® account.
