A few things to know.
Free tools for teaching with a Buildner competition brief. Please read the notice and policies before you enter.
Tool-use notice
Useful starting points.
Always check the details.
Course matches, skills ratings, cost estimates, brief summaries, semester plans and grading suggestions are teaching aids. They may contain errors, omissions or outdated information. Check every result before you use it with your class.
The official competition brief, published updates and registration conditions take precedence. Confirm deadlines, fees, eligibility and submission requirements on the competition website. A teaching plan or class list does not reserve places, confirm entry or guarantee a registration price.
You remain responsible for your course requirements, academic assessment and permission to use student information. The tools do not provide professional architectural, engineering or legal advice, or guarantee grades, awards, jury participation or other outcomes.
The tools are provided “as is” and “as available”, subject to the terms below. Nothing in this notice excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limits your mandatory statutory rights.
Your teaching work
Know what stays here.
Know what you share.
Teaching drafts and saved tool settings stay in this browser. Class registration is different: details you submit are saved on the server and shared with the people who manage your class list.
What data is processed?
Teaching drafts and downloads
Tool settings, shortlists and edited teaching drafts are saved on this device. Clearing browser storage can remove them. Keep downloaded copies of work you need. Competition choices in a page or download address may appear in hosting logs.
Class registration
When you create or join a class list, the service stores the names, email addresses, institution, course, team details and registration information you provide. Private access links are saved in your browser. The class list explains when you are sharing details with an instructor or sending a request to Buildner.
Your acceptance and error reports
On the live site, acceptance records include the date and time, IP address, browser information, notice version and acknowledgements. No location lookup is made. The acceptance cookie lasts up to 12 months; deleting it does not delete the separate server record.
If you choose to send an error report, the service stores your optional note, the page address without query values or fragments, technical diagnostics and connection details. Hosting providers may also keep access and security logs.
Cookie choices
Only necessary cookies are currently used. Cookie preferences are separate from accepting these terms. No analytics or advertising service is enabled. You can reopen Cookie settings in the footer at any time.
Read the Privacy policy (opens in a new tab) and Cookie policy (opens in a new tab) for more information.
