Privacy Policy

Last updated: 12 May 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how the GENIE learning platform (genie.crowdbeam.eu, "the Platform") collects, uses and protects personal data of learners, instructors and visitors. The Platform is operated by VšĮ Robotikos mokykla (robotikosmokykla.lt).

1. Who is responsible for your data

The data controller is VšĮ Robotikos mokykla. For any privacy question or to exercise the rights described below, contact [email protected].

2. What data we collect

• Account data — name, email address, preferred language, and (if you choose to provide it) profile picture.
• Course activity — courses you enrol in, items you open, quiz attempts, assignment submissions, forum posts, glossary entries, lesson progress.
• Technical data — IP address, browser / mobile-app version, language preference, timezone, and timestamps of your visits, used for security, abuse prevention and basic analytics.
• Content you submit — anything you intentionally upload (assignment files, forum posts, AI-generated outputs you share with the class, etc.).

We do not collect special categories of personal data (health, beliefs, biometrics) and do not require them for any course.

3. Why we process it (legal basis)

• Performance of the educational service — operating the courses you enrolled in, tracking your progress, issuing completion records. (GDPR Art. 6(1)(b))
• Legitimate interest — keeping the Platform secure, preventing abuse, improving the product. (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f))
• Consent — optional analytics, marketing emails, and any feature where we ask you first. You can withdraw consent at any time. (GDPR Art. 6(1)(a))

4. AI features

Some learning activities (e.g. quiz feedback, content suggestions) may use third-party AI services. When you interact with an AI feature, the text you send and receive may be transmitted to those services for the sole purpose of producing the response. We do not train external AI models on your content, and we ask our providers to delete request data on a short retention schedule. We never share your account identifiers with these providers.

5. Who has access to your data

• You and the instructors of courses you are enrolled in.
• The Platform's technical operators (VšĮ Robotikos mokykla and contracted hosting providers, including Aizen Logic acting as data processor on behalf of VšĮ Robotikos mokykla), strictly for operation and security.
• AI service providers, only for the duration of an AI request you initiate.
• Authorities, only when required by law.

We do not sell your personal data and we do not share it with advertisers.

6. International transfers

Servers are located in the European Union. Some sub-processors (for example AI service providers) may be located outside the EU; in that case transfers rely on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses or an adequacy decision.

7. How long we keep it

• Account — for as long as your account is active, plus 12 months after you delete it (for legal/dispute reasons), then permanent deletion.
• Course activity — kept while you have an account; anonymised summary statistics may be retained.
• Technical logs — typically 30–90 days.

8. Your rights

Under the GDPR you have the right to:

• access the personal data we hold about you;
• correct inaccurate data;
• erase your data (right to be forgotten);
• restrict or object to certain processing;
• export your data in a portable format;
• withdraw any consent you previously gave;
• complain to your national data-protection authority.

To exercise any of these, email [email protected]. We respond within 30 days.

9. Cookies and the mobile app

The website uses essential cookies for login sessions and language preference, plus, with your consent, anonymous analytics. The mobile app stores your session locally on your device only.

10. Children

The Platform is intended for adult professional education. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 16. If you believe a child has registered, please write to us and we will delete the account.

11. Changes to this policy

If we make material changes we will notify registered users by email and via an in-platform notice at least 14 days before the change takes effect.
