Version 2026-09-24 · in effect since 24 September 2026

The short version

  • No trackingNo advertising cookies, no third-party trackers, no fingerprinting. Only what keeps you signed in.
  • Encrypted throughoutTLS in transit and AES-256 at rest. Passwords are salted hashes that even we cannot read.
  • Kept only as neededSign-in history is deleted after 12 months. Everything else goes when your account does.

01Who is responsible

DAISI is the learning platform of Digital Bricks. Most people use it because their employer has arranged access for them.

For your training records — the courses assigned to you, your progress, quiz results and certificates — your employer decides why and how they are used. Under the GDPR your employer is the controller and Digital Bricks is its processor, bound by a data processing agreement (Art. 28 GDPR).

For running the platform itself — keeping accounts secure, remembering preferences and the optional choices you make — Digital Bricks is the controller.

Questions about any of this go to privacy@digitalbricks.ai. We answer within one month, usually much sooner.

02What we collect

We collect only what DAISI needs to run your learning. We do not buy data about you, and we do not combine it with data from other sources.

03What we never collect

Some things we never collect, however useful they might look.

  • Your precise location
  • Health, religion, politics or any other special-category data
  • Your contacts, camera or microphone
  • What you do on other websites
  • Advertising or marketing profiles

04Why we use it, and on what legal basis

Every use of your data rests on a legal basis in Article 6 of the GDPR. None of the essential processing depends on your consent — which is why the only things you can switch off are genuinely optional.

DataWhyLegal basis
Account & profileTo create your account, sign you in and put your name on your certificates.Performance of a contract and your employer's legitimate interest in training its people — Art. 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR.
Learning progressTo track your progress, pick up where you stopped, grade quizzes and issue certificates your employer can verify.Performance of a contract and your employer's legitimate interest — Art. 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR.
Security recordsTo protect your account, detect misuse and show your company administrator when people last signed in.Legitimate interest in keeping the platform secure — Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Preferences & choicesTo remember your settings and to be able to show what you agreed to.Performance of a contract, and our legal duty to demonstrate consent — Art. 6(1)(b) and (c), Art. 7(1) GDPR.

Optional usage statistics and product emails are only ever used with your consent — Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR — which you can withdraw at any time in Settings.

05Who can see your data

We never sell, rent or trade personal data, and we do not share it with advertisers or data brokers.

Inside DAISI, what people can see follows their role, as set out below. Your password is visible to nobody, including us: we only store a one-way hash of it.

Our only sub-processor is Microsoft (Azure), which hosts the platform. Microsoft processes data solely on our instructions. We disclose data to authorities only where EU or Dutch law compels us to, and we tell you unless the law forbids it.

You
Everything on this list, and a downloadable copy whenever you want one.
Your company administrator
Your name, email, job title, assigned courses, progress, quiz scores, certificates and sign-in times. Never your password.
Digital Bricks
A small number of authorised staff, only to support your organisation or keep the platform running and secure.
Microsoft Azure
Hosts the platform as our sub-processor. It may not use your data for its own purposes.

06Where your data is stored

Your data is stored and processed in Microsoft Azure's West Europe region, in the Netherlands. Backups stay in the same region.

We do not transfer your data outside the European Economic Area. Should Microsoft ever need to access it from outside the EEA — for example to resolve a support incident — that is covered by the EU Standard Contractual Clauses and the EU–US Data Privacy Framework.

07How we protect it

All traffic is encrypted with TLS. The database and file storage are encrypted at rest with AES-256.

Passwords are stored as salted bcrypt hashes. Invite and reset links are single-use, expire, and are only ever stored as hashes.

Access is limited by role and checked on the server for every request. Each company only ever sees its own people.

Every sign-in attempt is logged so unusual activity stands out. If a breach ever put your rights at risk, we would inform your organisation and the supervisory authority within 72 hours, and you directly where required.

08How long we keep it

We keep data only for as long as it serves the purpose it was collected for. The periods per category are listed in the table above.

Backups roll off automatically within 35 days, so erased data disappears from them too. Records of your privacy choices are kept for as long as your account exists, as proof of what you agreed to.

DataKept for
Account & profileAs long as your account exists. Erased within 30 days after it is removed.
Learning progressAs long as your account exists. Erased within 30 days after it is removed.
Security records12 months, then deleted automatically.
Preferences & choicesAs long as your account exists.

09Cookies and browser storage

DAISI uses no advertising or analytics cookies and no third-party trackers — which is why there is no cookie banner to click through. The only browser storage is what the platform needs to work. Under the Dutch Telecommunications Act, strictly necessary storage like this does not require consent.

NamePurposeDuration
authjs.session-tokenKeeps you signed in. Encrypted, signed and unreadable to scripts on the page.7 days
authjs.csrf-tokenProtects the sign-in form against cross-site request forgery.Browser session
authjs.callback-urlSends you back to the page you asked for after you sign in.Browser session
