<li>AI processing is performed via the University-supported ELM platform.</li>
<li>Google Analytics may be used for aggregated service metrics without sending user free-text chat content.</li>

<h2 style={{ color: '#fff' }}>Where your question goes</h2>
<p style={{ color: '#b8b8b8', lineHeight: 1.6 }}>
To answer you, we send your question and the data we retrieved from Virtual Fly Brain to ELM, the
University of Edinburgh&rsquo;s own AI platform. We do not store your question or the answer. ELM does log
prompts and interactions, for a maximum of two years, and its privacy notice explains that:{' '}
<a href="https://elm.edina.ac.uk/site/privacy-policy" style={{ color: '#66d9ff' }}>
elm.edina.ac.uk/site/privacy-policy
</a>.

<p style={{ color: '#b8b8b8', lineHeight: 1.6 }}>
Because this service has no accounts and no login, ELM holds no information that identifies you &mdash; the
request reaches it under Virtual Fly Brain&rsquo;s own credentials. Your question is held on University of
Edinburgh infrastructure, is not shared with any third party, and is not used to train anyone&rsquo;s AI
models. Individual prompts are not routinely read; ELM examines them only in exceptional circumstances,
for safeguarding or legal compliance.

<p style={{ color: '#b8b8b8', lineHeight: 1.6 }}>
Please still avoid typing personal information into your question. We ask this because it is good practice,
not because we can see it.

<p style={{ color: '#b8b8b8', lineHeight: 1.6 }}>
We use Google Analytics to count how the service is used: how long answers take, which broad topic a
question fell into, which tools ran, and whether the answer succeeded. These measurements are sent from our
server, not from your browser, so we set no cookies and store nothing on your device, and Google does not
receive your IP address &mdash; only ours. Each measurement carries a one-off random identifier that is
never reused, so your requests cannot be linked to one another. No question text and no answer text is ever
included.

Google Analytics is operated by Google LLC in the United States, under the UK Extension to the EU&ndash;US
Data Privacy Framework.
