GoGymi: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

GoGymi is a web application for preparing for the central entrance exam (ZAP) to the academic secondary schools (Gymnasien) of the canton of Zurich. It offers a bank of practice exercises, including past exam tasks, video explanations, progress tracking, an AI tutor and automated feedback on handwritten essays. It is aimed at parents and pupils and, with a class overview for teachers, at schools. It runs in the browser as a managed service.

GoGymi is operated by Elearnify GmbH in Lucerne, Switzerland, and its privacy notice refers to Swiss data protection law and, where applicable, the GDPR. According to that notice, the database and file storage run on Supabase in Zurich, exercise files are served from a Cloudflare EU region, and the application is delivered through Vercel in the EU and the US. The AI features send pupils' texts and photos to Google (Gemini) and, as a fallback, OpenAI in the US. Switzerland is an EFTA country with an EU adequacy decision. Schools should check how pupils' data is handled by these providers before use.

Why digital sovereignty matters with GoGymi

GoGymi is headquartered in Switzerland and falls under Swiss law, including the revised Swiss data protection act. Switzerland is not an EU member, but the European Commission recognises its level of data protection as adequate. Its Swiss headquarters does not by itself bring it under US legislation such as the CLOUD Act.

GoGymi hosts data in CH, EU, US. Exactly what stays within the EU — and what does not — is defined by the vendor's data processing agreement and sub-processor list, not by a setting you control yourself; check those documents for the precise scope, including backups, logs and support access.

GoGymi is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs GoGymi together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
