Who Collects the Data?
The data is collected across VeroSkills sites, owned and operated by VeroSkills:
What Data Is Collected?
The only personal data we collect is the data you give us during the signup process. This includes your email address and either your GitHub username or a name you provide.
If you sign up via GitHub, we also collect the public information you've added to your GitHub account. This can include your bio, location, website, and any other information you've shared publicly on GitHub.
When you use the app, we collect data on how you interact with it — for example, which courses you watch, how long you watch them, and how you interact with code. This dataset is pseudoanonymized, meaning the data can no longer be attributed to a specific individual without the use of additional information.
We also use Mixpanel and Hotjar for analytics. This data is also pseudoanonymized — we do not send any personal information to either service.
Why Is This Data Collected?
The legal basis for processing your personal data is your consent when signing up for VeroSkills. The only personal data you share is the details provided during signup.
Additional commitments regarding data sharing:
- SMS consent is not shared with third parties for marketing, promotional, or service messages.
- Phone number data remains with VeroSkills and is not resold or shared externally.
- Data may only be shared with trusted affiliate partners such as Hotjar or Mixpanel for analytics purposes.
Where Is Data Stored?
Our data is stored on a dedicated server operated by AWS, which undertakes to abide by its obligations under applicable regulations, including the GDPR. Read more about AWS data protection →
Mixpanel data is stored by Mixpanel. They are committed to complying with applicable legislation. Read Mixpanel's privacy policy →
Hotjar data is stored by Hotjar. They are committed to complying with applicable legislation. Read Hotjar's GDPR commitment →
Other than the services mentioned above, we do not share data with any third parties.
How Will the Information Be Used?
The information is currently only used to aggregate statistics on how VeroSkills is used in general — for example, how long people study a course on average, or how often users interact with tutors on the platform.
In the future, it may be used to provide logged-in users with content recommendations.
How Long Will Data Be Stored?
Data will be stored until the user requests its deletion.
What Rights Does the Data Subject Have?
You can at any time ask us to delete your data, and we will fulfill your request without question.
How Can the Data Subject Raise a Complaint?
If you would like your data deleted or have any complaint, please send an email to support@veroskills.com and we will address it promptly.
