Part 1
Privacy notice
This notice explains what Students Inc collects when you apply, why, who handles it and how to control it.
What we collect
- Application fields: name, email, phone, country, university, field of study, year, GPA, LinkedIn (optional) and track.
- Optional demographics: only if you choose to share them.
- Your assignment: what you write or upload.
- Your interview transcript: the questions and your answers.
- Commitment answers: your hours, conflicts and signed statement.
Why we collect it
To run your application, contact you about it, decide who joins each cohort, and run the program if you join. We don’t sell your data or use it for advertising.

How long we keep it
If you’re declined or withdraw, we delete your application 12 months after the cohort closes. If you join, we keep your records for the length of the program and [DATE] after.
Demographics
Demographic answers are optional. They’re stored separately from your application, only used to produce anonymous totals, and never used to decide. Totals of fewer than five people are never shown.
Your choices
- Download your data from your portal’s account page.
- Delete your data from the same page. This also withdraws your application.
- Withdraw at any time, without giving a reason.

Part 2
AI disclosure
What the AI does
- It runs the recorded interview, step 3 of applying. It tells you it’s an AI before it starts.
- It helps us review applications against a rubric we wrote, and quotes the parts of your answers it relied on.
What it never asks
About your health, or any protected characteristic: race, ethnicity, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability or age. It never sees your demographic answers.
What people decide
People set the rubric, make the close calls and send every decision.
Note · Wording pending a decision on human review.

- Conduct, and what happens if it goes wrong.
- Withdrawing and ending participation.
