We recommend reviewing their privacy policies to understand how your data will be used.

When you register as a user of BASICSchool or when you use our website, we collect certain personal information about you. This information is used to provide you with eSystem services and other services, to conduct school activities, and to analyze how you use our website.
When you sign up as a user of BASICSchool, we collect information such as your name, surname, email, date of birth, and similar details. In certain cases and to a limited extent, we also collect data from your social media profiles (if you sign up for BASICSchool through these profiles).
To create and maintain a reliable and secure environment, we may collect information for identity verification purposes (such as photos of your ID card where permitted by applicable regulations) or other authentication data.

European Union regulations, as well as local laws, establish specific rules for processing "special categories of personal data," which include racial, national, or ethnic origin, political opinions or party affiliation, religious or other beliefs, and sexual orientation. We allow you to post such data, which can be viewed by people you select (which may include all visitors to our site). We generally do not process such data unless you choose to add or make such data available to others.
When you post information on a forum or publicly comment on news and announcements on any of our pages, the information you post and your username are publicly available. These details can be viewed and collected by others. We are not responsible for how others use this information.
