Servers in Germany
The platform runs in a data centre in Frankfurt am Main. Your content and user data are held on servers in Germany.
Security & Data Protection
Hosted in Frankfurt, with nothing to hide.
You should not have to guess where your data lives. This page sets out, in plain terms, what runs where and why the AI at V‑IZ is optional.
Everything is hosted in Frankfurt.
The video platform, your content and every user account sit in a data centre in Frankfurt am Main. Your employees' data stays on servers in Germany and is covered by the GDPR in full.
The only exception
The AI is optional. That is deliberate.
Where the AI does its computing
The optional AI trainer runs on Google computing power, in EU data centres only. Every request is processed inside the EU, nowhere else. The matching data processing agreement is yours whenever you need it.
What that means for you
Add the AI, or leave it out entirely. Leave it out, and everything runs through the Frankfurt data centre and nothing else. The video course and the coursebook work perfectly well on their own.
GDPR compliant, and set down in writing.
Data processing agreement
Ask, and we will send you a data processing agreement (DPA) under Art. 28 GDPR.
A code, not a list of names
Your employees sign in with a code, nothing more. You never send us lists of names. Learning progress is processed in Frankfurt under the GDPR and stays with the employee it belongs to.
Encrypted throughout
Every connection runs over encrypted HTTPS, in the app and in the browser alike.
The full privacy policy (in German) and the legal notice are published here on this site.
Questions about data protection or the DPA?
A short message is all it takes. We will send you the data processing agreement and answer whatever you would like to know about the hosting.
