Your privacy on Limitless
Limitless helps you work on projects, get feedback and develop your ideas. To make the platform work, we need to keep some information about you. This page explains what happens to it.
What do we know about you?
- Your name, school, school year and account information.
- Your projects, plans, check-ins, reflections and work you upload.
- Information you choose to add to your learner profile, such as your interests, strengths and how you like to work.
- Feedback and assessments your teachers add.
- Safeguarding alerts created after a genuine serious safety trigger, and reports you choose to send using Report a concern.
What is Limitless AI?
Some students can use Limitless AI to explore ideas and get help thinking about a project. It is a computer system, not a person, teacher or counsellor. It can make mistakes, so you should still think for yourself and check important information.
Please do not type private information into Limitless AI, such as your full name, email, phone number, home address, passwords or private information about somebody else. Limitless uses a filter to remove some identifying information before text is sent to the AI, but filters cannot catch everything.
Your uploaded project files are not sent to OpenAI. Ordinary Mentor, Stuck and Too easy chats disappear when you leave the screen and are not saved by Limitless.
What if something worries me?
Limitless checks student messages and AI replies for some serious safety problems. If a message suggests that somebody may be unsafe, normal AI project help may stop and you will be encouraged to speak to a trusted adult.
If the safety system identifies a genuine serious concern in something you type, it automatically alerts your school's Limitless Coordinator and notifies the Beyond IQ admin so an authorised adult can review it securely. You can also choose Report a concern to send a category and any extra details you want to share. The safeguarding text itself is not put into the notification email.
If your report is about something Limitless AI said or did, Beyond IQ may also read the reported AI reply so the problem can be investigated.
Who can see my work?
You can see your own work. Teachers and school staff who are allowed to support you in Limitless can see the information they need for that job. People from another school should not be able to see your records.
How long is my information kept?
Your ordinary Limitless school/project information is kept while you are taking part. When you stop participating, it can normally be kept for up to two years and then permanently deleted. Your school can sometimes ask for it to be deleted earlier.
Safeguarding reports are kept separately and are normally kept in Limitless for two years from the date they are submitted, unless the school asks for earlier deletion or there is a documented legal reason to keep them longer.
Can I ask questions?
Yes. You can ask your teacher or school Coordinator about your Limitless information. You can also contact Beyond IQ at info@beyond-iq.com. If something on this page is difficult to understand, ask an adult you trust to go through it with you.
