How Tracking Enhances Your Experience
Our tracking technologies serve specific purposes that directly benefit your learning experience. When you access our AI ethics courses, cookies remember where you left off, allowing you to seamlessly continue your education across multiple sessions.
For example, if you're progressing through our governance framework modules, our system tracks your completion status and quiz scores. This information helps us recommend relevant supplementary materials and adjust the difficulty level of future content to match your learning pace.
Personalization Features
- Content recommendations based on your interests and previous course selections
- Customized dashboard displaying your learning progress and achievements
- Automated bookmarking of your last accessed materials and resources
- Tailored email notifications about new courses relevant to your field of study
- Adaptive learning paths that adjust based on your performance and preferences
We also use tracking data to identify common learning patterns and pain points. This information helps us improve our course structure, identify areas where students typically struggle, and develop better educational resources for the AI ethics community.
Data Retention and Storage
Different types of tracking data have varying retention periods based on their purpose and legal requirements. Session cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser, while preference cookies may remain for up to two years to maintain your customized settings.
Analytics data is aggregated and anonymized within 14 months of collection. Personal identifiers are removed from this data, and it's used solely for improving our platform's educational effectiveness and user experience.
Data Storage Locations
Your tracking data is stored on secure servers within the European Union, complying with GDPR requirements. We use industry-standard encryption and security measures to protect this information from unauthorized access or data breaches.
Third-party analytics providers may store aggregated data on their own servers, but this information cannot be used to identify individual users. We maintain strict data processing agreements with all our partners to ensure your privacy remains protected.

Third-Party Services and Partnerships
We work with carefully selected third-party services to enhance our platform's functionality and educational value. These partners may use their own tracking technologies, but they operate under strict privacy agreements and data protection standards.
