Where it lives

Registration: FORAMIND TECHNOLOGIES LIMITED is registered with the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), registration no. ZC153961. We comply with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Hosting: Google Cloud
Region: Google Cloud, in a United States region
Sub-processors: Google Cloud (hosting, United States); OpenRouter, Inc. and Google (AI processing, United States). Google Analytics only if you accept analytics cookies, and Google or Apple sign-in only if you choose it. The privacy policy lists them in full.
Backups and retention: Backups are kept for a rolling three months. Maps, uploaded files and AI inputs and outputs stay for the life of the subscription or account.
Deleting data: Account and subscription data is deleted within 90 days of the end of a subscription or the closure of an account, and you can export your maps during that time. Backup copies are purged within a further three months. An organisation can instruct earlier deletion.

When AI is involved: When you ask Foramind to start a map from your notes or a document.
Which models: Google Gemini Flash, accessed through OpenRouter
Used for training?: No. We use your inputs only to run the platform and produce the outputs you ask for. We use only AI providers whose terms and our settings do not allow them to train on your data.
What happens afterwards: We use zero data retention with our AI providers: your inputs are not stored after the output is returned.
Your control: You can edit or delete every branch a model suggests. Organisation admins can switch AI features off for their staff and students.

Organisation sign-in: Institutional plans include single sign-on with Google, Microsoft and Apple, and automatic sign-in from Moodle, Canvas or Blackboard through LTI 1.3.
Inside your LMS: LTI 1.3 for Moodle, Canvas and Blackboard, tested in a live university set-up
Who sees a map: Each map has an owner, editors and viewers. The owner decides who can edit and who can only view. Students see only the maps shared with them.
Pupils' data: Pupils under 18 cannot create their own account. Their school, college or tutor creates and manages it. The school or tutor is the controller, and we process pupils' data on its documented instructions.

Standard: Built to meet WCAG 2.1 AA, tested internally with automated and manual checks.
Presenting: Maps open one branch at a time, so a learner is not faced with the whole page at once
