What Is Saturn?
Saturn is an app that helps high school students organize, simplify, and improve their lives. The app is centered around each student’s school calendar. Students can stay up-to-date on their class schedule, keep track of homework assignments, and follow school activities.
To ensure that Saturn remains a safe and supportive place for students, Saturn enforces a set of Community Guidelines that encourages positivity and prohibits:
Violence

Nudity, graphics sexual images or descriptions, or references to child sexual exploitation
Promoting self-harm
Saturn makes it easy for users to report any content they believe is inappropriate. If we become aware of content that violates our Community Guidelines, we will remove the content and take appropriate actions with the individual user, which may including banning the user from the Saturn platform.

If a law enforcement official is seeking information about a Saturn user who has provided consent for the official to access or obtain the user’s account information, the law enforcement official should work with the individual to obtain the data. If a law enforcement official seeks to obtain information from Saturn in these instances, Saturn will not deviate from its normal legal policies and processes.

If compliance with a data request makes Saturn aware of a violation of its Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, or Community Guidelines, Saturn reserves the right to take independent action, including steps to notify the user of Saturn’s knowledge of their misconduct.
