Who we are

Transcendent Institute operates the Inner System Map. Contact: info@transcendentinstitute.com.

What we process and why

Public mode: your answers are scored in your browser. When you give your name and email at the start, we email you your results as a PDF, keep a copy of your answers and results for 6 months, and send a copy to Transcendent Institute so the school can follow up if you ask. This is based on your explicit consent, which you can withdraw at any time using the deletion link in the email.

Cohort mode: your answers, results and any notes you choose to share are stored under your account and are visible to the named facilitators of your cohort, to support your work in the retreat. This is based on your explicit consent, recorded with its date and policy version. You can export or delete everything at any time from your data page.

Answers describe your inner life and may reveal information about mental health. We treat all of it as special category data.

What we do not collect

No date of birth, no IP addresses in our database, no analytics cookies. Logs record job outcomes only, never answers or email addresses.

Retention

Public results: 6 months, then deleted automatically. Cohort data: 12 months after the cohort end date unless the school sets otherwise, then deleted automatically. Account deletion removes everything immediately.

Where your data is

All data is stored and processed in the European Union. Sub-processors: Vercel (hosting, Frankfurt), Neon (database and sign-in, Frankfurt), Resend (transactional email, EU), Upstash (rate limiting, EU).

Your rights

Access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection, and the right to withdraw consent. Write to info@transcendentinstitute.com or use the self-service export and deletion in the app. You may complain to your data protection authority.
