Can an adviser review personalized sections?

At this time, advisers are not able to review or view the personalized sections of a book created by students or others. There are several reasons for this decision:

  1. Liability and Responsibility: Once an adviser gains access to review personalized sections, the adviser, and by extension the school or organization, would assume responsibility for the content within those sections. While it’s possible for an adviser to screen each photo and text area, there is always the risk of overlooking something. If an inappropriate or problematic item is missed, it could potentially lead to issues for both the adviser and the school.

  2. Administrative Burden: Allowing advisers to review these personalized sections would add a significant administrative burden. In theory, an adviser might need to review hundreds of personalized sections, each containing multiple pages of content. This task would be outside the current workflow and time constraints of advisers, and could lead to delays and additional costs.

  3. Ownership and Payment: Personalization is available through the storefront, where parents make payments for the books via credit card. By making the payment, parents assume ownership of the book and the personalized section. As the system continues to develop, we will notify parents about the personalization feature and encourage them to review the content themselves.

  4. Maintaining Privacy and Ownership: At this stage, we aim to keep personalized sections distinct from the main book to avoid creating the impression that the school or organization is overseeing or controlling the personalized content. Personalization is intended to be a private and personal experience for the child and their parents. Once there is school oversight, the privacy and personal nature of these sections would be compromised.

If a school or organization still wishes to view the personalized sections, they must request permission from the students by asking them to provide their username and password. This would grant the school access to the personalized content. The adviser would then be able to individually review each section by logging in with the provided credentials.
