Privacy & Ethics

At The Wondering Staffroom, we believe that salary transparency empowers teachers — and that sharing should never come at the cost of your personal privacy.

🔍 No Personal Tracking

• We do not collect your name, email, or IP address. (The only exception being if you join the mailing list, we use your e-mail for that)
• We don’t require accounts, logins, or personal details to use our anonymous teacher salary comparison tool.
• We use privacy-first analytics tools to monitor trends, not individuals.(We activly avoid Google for this)

🌍 Where Your Data Lives

All submissions are stored in Switzerland using a privacy-focused database. The website itself is served from Frankfurt, Germany. We chose European hosting to protect your information under strong privacy laws like GDPR.

🧠 How We Use Your Submissions

We collect anonymous data so that international teachers can compare salaries, benefits, and recruitment packages anonymously across schools and regions.

• Compare salary and benefits packages
• See trends across countries and schools
• Make informed career choices

💬 Why We Stay Anonymous Too

This project is run by international educators, for other international educators, who understand the risks of sharing sensitive information. We stay anonymous to protect the independence of this project and avoid any potential conflicts of interest.
