+
+## General Information
+
+The RemoteLearningModule component represents learning modules that originate from a remote ILIAS
+instance and are shared into the local ILIAS installation via the ECS (Campus Connect) protocol.
+Objects of type `rlm` are created and updated automatically when an ECS server pushes learning
+module metadata; they cannot be created manually by users. The component stores only object-level
+metadata (title, description, availability status, remote URL, and the originating institution)
+in the local database — actual learning content remains on the remote system.
+
+When a person with `read` permission clicks to open a remote learning module, the component
+constructs a redirect URL that includes the current user's personal data as query parameters and
+forwards the browser to the remote system. This data transfer to the remote ECS participant is
+governed by the ECS server configuration and the participant trust settings, not by a local
+opt-out mechanism.
+
+## Integrated Components
+
+The RemoteLearningModule component delegates all ECS communication and base object persistence
+to the WebServices/ECS component (`ilRemoteObjectBase`,
+`ilECSImportManager`, `ilECSUser`, `ilECSParticipantSetting`). Category rule mapping is handled
+by `ilECSCategoryMapping` inside the same ECS component. No further ILIAS components that handle
+personal data are used directly by this component.
+
+## Data being stored
+
+The component stores the following data in the `rlm_settings` database table (inherited via
+`ilRemoteObjectBase`):
+
+- **obj_id** (integer) — ILIAS internal object identifier, links the row to the ILIAS object tree.
+- **remote_link** (text) — The URL of the learning module on the remote ECS participant system.
+- **mid** (integer) — The ECS membership ID of the originating institution (not a personal user identifier).
+- **organization** (text) — The name of the originating institution, derived from the ECS community
+  reader; this is institutional metadata, not personal data.
+- **local_information** (text) — Optional free-text annotation that a person with `write` permission
+  may enter locally.
+- **availability_type** (integer) — Online/offline flag synchronized from the ECS content (0 = offline,
+  1 = online); not personal data.
+
+None of the fields stored in `rlm_settings` directly identify an individual user. No `usr_id`,
+email address, or other personal user data is persisted locally by this component.
+
+## Data being presented
+
+When a person with `read` permission views the info screen of a remote learning module, the
+following non-personal metadata is displayed: title, description, availability status, and the
+originating organization name (stored in `rlm_settings.organization`).
+
+When a person with `read` permission follows the link to open the module, their personal data is
+transmitted to the remote ECS participant system as URL query parameters by `ilECSUser::toGET()`.
+The parameters sent are: `ecs_login` (login name or external account placeholder depending on
+participant configuration), `ecs_firstname`, `ecs_lastname`, `ecs_email`, `ecs_institution`,
+`ecs_uid_hash` (a pseudonymous identifier of the form `il_{inst_id}_usr_{user_id}`), and
+optionally `ecs_external_account`. Whether and how the remote system processes or stores this data
+is outside the scope of this component.
+
+A person with `write` permission additionally sees the availability radio buttons (read-only,
+controlled by ECS) in the edit form.
+
+## Data being deleted
+
+When a remote learning module object is deleted and removed from the trash (delete from trash),
+the `doDelete()` method in `ilRemoteObjectBase` removes the corresponding row from `rlm_settings`
+and calls `ilECSImportManager::_deleteByObjId()` to clean up the ECS import tracking record.
+Because no personal user data is stored locally by this component, no personal data is deleted
+in this step.
+
+Remote learning module objects are typically created, updated, and deleted automatically in
+response to ECS server events; a person with `write` permission may also delete the local
+repository object manually, which triggers the same cleanup path.
+
+## Data being exported
+
+The RemoteLearningModule component does not provide its own data export. No personal data stored
+by this component is included in ILIAS data exports, as the component stores no personal user data
+locally. The transmission of user attributes to the remote system on link-follow (see "Data being
+presented") is not an export in the ILIAS sense and is not logged locally by this component.
