AI transparency

Where AI is used

• Content: exercise texts, tasks, grammar explanations, illustrations and audio recordings (synthetic voices) are created with the help of AI. They are produced editorially in advance — without user data — and reviewed by us; they may still contain errors.
• AI evaluation: your written and spoken practice answers are evaluated automatically by an AI system (on our backend). The evaluation is a learning aid: it may contain errors, is not an official exam result, and is issued to no one but you.

How we mark AI content (Art. 50 AI Act)

• A notice before every AI interaction: you learn that an AI system will evaluate your answer before you submit it — together with the request not to enter real personal data in the text fields or recordings.
• A note on the evaluation output: the automated AI evaluation is not an official exam result and may contain errors.
• A synthetic-voice notice on the listening exercises.
• Machine-readable marking: every page carrying AI-generated content declares it in the page code — with a standardised metadata entry ("trainedAlgorithmicMedia" per the IPTC vocabulary) and an attribute marking the content area as AI-generated. Marking inside the media files themselves (IPTC/XMP metadata in images, ID3 in audio) will be implemented within the statutory period, by 2 December 2026.

Classification under the AI Act (Annex III, Art. 6)

The AI Act classifies certain AI systems in education as high-risk (Annex III point 3(b): systems for evaluating learning outcomes). We examined whether our AI evaluation feature falls under it.

The result of our documented assessment: the feature is not a high-risk system within the meaning of Art. 6(2) AI Act, because the derogation of Art. 6(3) applies. This is a voluntary, free self-study offering; the evaluation is purely formative, has no legal or comparable effect, leads to no certificate, decides on no access to education or an exam, and is transmitted to no examination body or other party. Only the individual, voluntarily submitted answer is evaluated; no profiling takes place — the system builds no profile of you and predicts no exam success. The exam that counts is conducted exclusively by independent human examiners at the authorised examination centres.

We documented this assessment in writing under Art. 6(4) AI Act (as of 19 August 2026) and will provide it to the competent authorities on request. We will complete the registration under Art. 49(2) AI Act in the EU database within the statutory deadlines (under amending Regulation (EU) 2026/1744, the Annex III provisions apply from 2 December 2027).

Your role

Whether and how you study with our materials is entirely your decision. The AI evaluation replaces neither a teacher nor an official exam result — a certificate can only be obtained at the state certification exam in Polish as a foreign language at an authorised examination centre. We are an independent private project and are not affiliated with any examination institution or public authority.
