Data Protection Officer / personal data contact: dpo@myqcmdz.com
This Privacy Policy explains how EOSIA Health operates MyQCM Aljazayr and related services, including MyQCM student learning, teacher spaces, EOSIA Campus, EOSIA Scribe, PHAROS, Curator, adaptive QCM/QROC, smart articles, AI explanations, live sessions, progress analytics, subscriptions, activation cards, support, and website cookie/local-storage features.
This Policy is designed to be transparent and protective, but it must be aligned with the final technical implementation and with signed contracts before publication.
1. Who we are
For ordinary student, visitor, teacher, beta, support, and direct-subscription use, EOSIA Health is generally the controller of personal data processed through MyQCM Aljazayr because EOSIA Health determines the main purposes and means of the processing.
For institutional deployments, such as EOSIA Campus used by a faculty, university, training provider, hospital training department, or other institution, roles may differ. Depending on the contract and configuration:
- EOSIA Health may act as controller for platform security, billing, product analytics, service administration, and direct user relationship;
- the institution may act as controller for official academic records, institutional access decisions, class membership, teacher assignments, and formal educational decisions;
- EOSIA Health may act as processor or sub-processor for specific institutional data handled only on the institution’s documented instructions;
- some activities may be joint or independent controllership and should be described in the institutional contract.
Where a separate institutional agreement or data processing agreement applies, that agreement may provide additional information and protections.
2. Key definitions

Processing includes collection, recording, storage, organization, consultation, use, disclosure, transfer, deletion, or any similar operation.
Learning data means educational interaction data such as answers, scores, attempts, progress, weaknesses, knowledge components, revision history, and recommendations.
User content means files, notes, scans, images, text, questions, comments, documents, prompts, answers, generated content, and other materials uploaded or submitted by a user.
AI features means AI-assisted tools used for educational explanation, structuring, summarization, classification, tagging, generation, recommendation, or support.
Institutional administrator means a person authorized by an institution to manage users, roles, modules, cohorts, dashboards, or content.

4. Data we do not want you to upload
MyQCM is an educational platform. It is not designed to collect real patient medical data.
You must not upload or submit real patient information, medical records, identifiable clinical images, names, phone numbers, national identifiers, hospital identifiers, biometric data, or any information that can identify a patient, unless all of the following conditions are met:
- a separate written agreement authorizes this use;
- a valid legal basis and all required authorizations exist;
- the data is minimized and, where possible, anonymized or strongly de-identified;
- the institution and users have complied with medical secrecy, confidentiality, and applicable data-protection law;
- EOSIA Health has confirmed the required safeguards in writing.
If you accidentally upload real patient data or other sensitive information, you must delete it where possible and contact us immediately at privacy@myqcmdz.com or security@myqcmdz.com.
5. Why we process personal data

- create, secure, authenticate, and manage accounts;
- provide QCM, QROC, articles, notes, live sessions, dashboards, reminders, and learning features;
- personalize learning pathways, revision schedules, and recommendations;
- operate teacher, contributor, and institutional workflows;

6. Legal bases
Depending on the applicable law and context, processing may rely on one or more of the following legal bases.
| Processing activity | Typical legal basis |
|---|---|
| Account creation, login, access to learning features | Performance of the service contract or user request |
| Institutional access and class/module membership | Institutional contract, performance of educational service, legitimate interest, or institution’s lawful basis |
| Learning progress, recommendations, dashboards | Performance of the service, legitimate interest in providing adaptive learning, and safeguards for users |
| Optional AI processing of uploaded documents | Performance of requested feature; consent or additional safeguards where sensitive data may be involved |
| Payment, activation cards, invoices | Performance of contract and legal/accounting obligations |
| Security logs, abuse prevention, fraud detection | Legitimate interest, legal obligations, and protection of service integrity |
| Service notifications | Performance of service or legitimate interest |
| Marketing communications | Consent or legitimate interest where permitted; opt-out rights apply |
| Non-essential cookies or trackers | Consent, unless legally exempt |
| Legal claims and regulatory requests | Legal obligation and legitimate interest |
| Product analytics | Legitimate interest or consent depending on the tool, configuration, jurisdiction, and cookie rules |
When Algerian personal-data law applies, EOSIA Health will seek to comply with Law No. 18-07 as amended and supplemented, including obligations relating to information, consent where required, rights, security, records, transfers, and the national authority. When GDPR applies, EOSIA Health will seek to comply with GDPR principles, including lawfulness, transparency, purpose limitation, minimization, accuracy, storage limitation, integrity, confidentiality, and accountability.
7. AI, personalization, and automated processing
MyQCM may use AI and algorithmic systems to:
- explain educational content;
- structure documents;
- identify knowledge components;
- classify difficulty;
- generate educational drafts;
- suggest revision priorities;
- summarize notes;
- detect weak concepts;
- recommend exercises;
- support teachers in reviewing or organizing content.
AI outputs are provided to support learning. They are not medical advice, diagnosis, prescription, treatment guidance, legal advice, or an official academic decision by themselves.
EOSIA Health seeks to apply the following safeguards:
- important educational or institutional decisions should remain subject to human oversight;
- teachers and institutions remain responsible for validating content they publish or use officially;
- users should verify important medical or scientific information through reliable sources, teachers, or official references;
- AI outputs may be incorrect, incomplete, outdated, biased, or unsuitable for a given context;
- users may report problematic outputs;
- where automated processing materially affects access, progress, or institutional treatment, users should be able to request information and human review where required by law.
MyQCM does not intend to make solely automated decisions producing legal effects or similarly significant effects on users without appropriate legal basis, information, and safeguards.
8. Institutional dashboards and teacher access
Where you use MyQCM through a faculty, school, teacher, or institution, authorized administrators and teachers may access limited educational information, such as enrolment status, module progress, scores, attempts, completion, activity, weak topics, and aggregated analytics.
Institutions and teachers must use these data only for legitimate educational purposes, within their authorized scope, and in accordance with applicable law and institutional rules. They should not use platform analytics alone for disciplinary measures, exclusion, official grading, or other high-impact decisions without appropriate human assessment and procedural fairness.
9. Sources of personal data
We may collect data directly from you, from your device/browser, from your use of the service, from teachers or institutions that invite or enroll you, from payment or activation providers, from support communications, and from technical service providers necessary to operate the platform.
10. Sharing personal data
We do not sell users’ personal data.
We may share personal data only where necessary and lawful with:
- authorized EOSIA Health personnel and contractors under confidentiality duties;
- teachers, module leads, institution administrators, and authorized institutional users within their scope;
- hosting, cloud, storage, database, email, notification, analytics, monitoring, customer support, payment, and security providers;
- AI infrastructure or model providers where AI features are enabled and where contractual and technical safeguards are in place;
- professional advisers such as lawyers, accountants, auditors, and insurers;
- public authorities, regulators, courts, or law enforcement where legally required or necessary to protect rights and safety;
- successors or partners in a merger, acquisition, restructuring, investment, or transfer of business, subject to confidentiality and lawful processing.
Where providers act as processors or sub-processors, EOSIA Health should contractually require confidentiality, security, limited processing, assistance with rights, incident notification, and deletion/return of data at the end of the service.
11. International transfers
The service may use infrastructure and providers in Algeria, the European Union, or other countries. International transfers may occur when data is hosted, accessed, supported, processed by AI systems, or handled by service providers outside your country.
Where Algerian law applies, transfers of personal data outside Algeria must be assessed and, where required, authorized or safeguarded in accordance with the applicable Algerian personal-data framework and ANPDP requirements.
Where GDPR applies, transfers from the European Economic Area to third countries should rely on an adequacy decision, Standard Contractual Clauses, additional safeguards, or another lawful transfer mechanism.
EOSIA Health should maintain a transfer map identifying providers, countries, categories of data, safeguards, and whether authorization or additional assessment is required.
12. Retention
We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law.
Indicative retention logic, to be validated before publication:
| Data category | Indicative retention criteria |
|---|---|
| Account data | While the account is active, then limited archiving for legal, security, and accounting purposes |
| Learning data | While needed for learning continuity, progress history, institutional reporting, and service improvement; deletion or anonymization after account closure where feasible |
| User content | Until deleted by the user, account closure, end of institutional contract, or retention need; backups may persist for a limited technical period |
| Payment and invoice data | According to accounting, tax, and legal retention requirements |
| Security logs | Limited period proportionate to security needs, unless needed for investigation or legal claims |
| Cookie consent records | Proportionate period to prove and manage consent choices |
| Support records | As long as needed to resolve requests and keep evidence of service communications |
| Marketing preferences | Until withdrawal/opt-out plus a limited suppression period to avoid recontact |
| Aggregated/anonymized analytics | May be retained longer where individuals are no longer identifiable |
Before publication, EOSIA Health should replace this table with exact retention periods and deletion/anonymization triggers.
13. Security
EOSIA Health should implement appropriate technical and organizational measures based on the risks, nature, scope, context, and purposes of processing, including where relevant:
- HTTPS/TLS encryption in transit;
- password hashing and secure authentication;
- access controls based on roles and least privilege;
- separation of student, teacher, institution, and administrator scopes;
- audit logs for sensitive actions;
- encryption or strong protection for sensitive stored data where feasible;
- backups and recovery procedures;
- secure development and vulnerability management;
- input validation and abuse prevention;
- monitoring and incident response;
- confidentiality obligations for personnel and contractors;
- minimization of data sent to AI providers;
- contractual safeguards with processors;
- deletion or anonymization procedures.
No online service can guarantee absolute security. Users must keep credentials confidential, use strong passwords, avoid sharing accounts, and report suspected unauthorized access.
14. Personal data breaches
If EOSIA Health becomes aware of a personal-data breach, it should investigate, contain, document, and assess the incident. Where required by applicable law, EOSIA Health will notify the competent authority and affected persons.
Under the Algerian framework as amended by Law No. 25-11, the controller must notify the national authority of a personal-data breach within the applicable legal period where required, and document breaches and remedial actions. Where the breach is likely to create a high risk for natural persons, affected persons should be informed in clear and simple language unless an exception applies.
Processors must notify EOSIA Health without undue delay after becoming aware of a breach affecting data processed for EOSIA Health.
15. Your rights
Depending on the applicable legal framework, you may have the right to:
- receive information about the processing of your personal data;
- access your personal data;
- correct inaccurate or incomplete data;
- request deletion where legally possible;
- restrict certain processing;
- object to certain processing;
- withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;
- request portability where GDPR applies and conditions are met;
- obtain information about automated processing that affects you;
- request human review where required by law;
- lodge a complaint with a competent data-protection authority.
To exercise rights, contact: privacy@myqcmdz.com or dpo@myqcmdz.com.
We may need to verify your identity before responding. We may refuse or limit requests where allowed by law, for example if the request is manifestly unfounded, excessive, affects the rights of others, or conflicts with legal retention obligations.
16. Children and minors
MyQCM is designed mainly for higher-education medical students, teachers, and institutions. It is not designed for young children.
If minors use the service, EOSIA Health and the relevant institution should implement an appropriate consent, parental/guardian authorization, supervision, and safeguarding framework consistent with applicable law.
17. Communications
We may send service communications necessary to operate the platform, such as account messages, security alerts, teacher invitations, institutional notifications, progress reminders, and administrative notices.
Marketing or promotional messages will be sent only where permitted by law. You may unsubscribe or change preferences where applicable, but you may continue to receive necessary service messages.
18. Cookies and similar technologies
We use cookies, localStorage, sessionStorage, tokens, and similar technologies as described in the Cookie Policy. Non-essential cookies or trackers should not be activated unless a valid exemption applies or consent has been obtained.
19. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Policy to reflect changes in the service, law, providers, security practices, or institutional requirements. The updated version should display the effective date. Material changes should be communicated through a reasonable channel, such as the website, application, account area, or email.
