Data security and the online demo version

Post by LScurlockEvans »

Hello,
I work at a University and our school is planning on moving to using JAMOVI rather than SPSS. However, I just wanted to double check - is the data opened in the online demo version stored anywhere by JAMOVI, and if so - is it compliant with UK GDPR legislation? I need to know this before we can advise our students about trying out the online demo.
Many thanks.
Best wishes,
Laura.

hi laura,

the data never leaves the server, and is erased after a period of inactivity.

cheers

Hi Jonathon,
That's great, thank you. Please can I double check - is the server in the UK or EU? Also - could you give me an idea of how the long period of inactivity is?
Many thanks!!
Best wishes,
Laura.
