Data Collection & Privacy

What data we collect on monkeycode and how it is used for our BSc. thesis research.

We collect personal data solely for academic research in connection with our BSc. thesis. The legal basis for this processing is your consent, which you provide by creating an account or logging in to monkeycode.dk.

You may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

What Data We Collect

Logged-in users

Platform usage data:

  • Email address used to log in
  • Navigation patterns on the website (pages visited, clicks)
  • Time taken to complete each problem
  • Survey responses (if you choose to participate)

Survey responses are linked to your Email address of your account, and is used for research analysis and will be anonymised along with all other data.

All of the above is used in our BSc. thesis research.

Non-logged-in visitors

Basic usage data (such as page views and navigation patterns) may be collected through PostHog for general analytics purposes. This data is not linked to any identity and is not used in our BSc. thesis research in any way.

How We Collect It

We use a combination of our own service and PostHog (a third-party analytics platform) to collect usage data. PostHog acts as a data processor on our behalf. You can review their privacy practices at posthog.com/privacy.

Survey responses are collected though PostHog.

Data minimisation: We only collect the minimum data necessary for our research. No tracking is used for advertising, profiling, or any purpose beyond this thesis.

Data Storage & Retention

  • All data is stored within the EU/EEA.
  • All collected data will be permanently deleted once the BSc. project is complete and graded.
  • Any data used in the published thesis will be fully anonymised beforehand, making it impossible to identify individual users.
