It applies to the web version and the Android version of the SkillEd course application (platform.skill-ed.org/app). For the privacy policy of branded apps click here
This privacy notice applies solely to information collected by the app, except where stated otherwise. It will notify you of the following:
- What information we collect;

- Account and data removal;
- How it is secured;

Information Collection, Use, and Sharing
No user account is needed to use this app.
However, if you have an account and want to access private courses (created by you, or created by someone else who gave you access rights) you will need to log in. No personal data will be stored at login or during the time you are logged in.
In case you accessed this app through an organization and they require you to create an account to access their material, the following data would be accessible to them:
- your email
- your username
- if they provide exams, your answers may be stored depending on whether the exams are public (not stored) or for subscribers to the organization only (stored)
Security
When you submit sensitive information through the app (for instance, by filling out an embedded form) your information is protected. Wherever you enter information, that information is transmitted in a secure way. Only forms and sites can be embedded that use the HTTPS protocol.
If the content provider embeds forms, we are not responsible for what is done with the data provided by the user of the app. Only share information through these forms if you trust the organization/company that created the learning content.
Notification of Changes
Changes made to this privacy policy will be announced clearly on our website skill-ed.org, or if you have an account at SkillEd, through email.
Sharing
Personal data will only be stored if you are subscriber to an organization environment. We will share nothing with partners, advertisers or others, nor will we access any personal data. It is the responsibility and obligation of the organization to inform you if and what data is gathered and/or shared through their environment and courses.
Account and data removal
If you want to remove your account, and / or all data connected to it (for instance courses you created, messages etc), please send your request to support@skill-ed.org
Data like courses and messages can also be removed by yourself through the application you used to create the data (user dashboard or course app)
Links
Courses of content providers may contain links to other sites or sites embedded in iframes. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site (or fill out forms, as none of them are provided by SkillEd) and to read the privacy statements of any other site that collects personally identifiable information.
Content
We are not responsible for the content created by the content providers but have the right to remove it if we don’t approve of the content provided. “Not approve” mainly refers to content that is unlawful, hateful, or otherwise inappropriate.
