Data Processing Overview
This section outlines the main purposes for processing personal data, the types of external recipients involved, and the legal framework that supports limited data sharing.
Purpose of use
We use personal data to operate the website, provide and manage course access, process registrations and payments, respond to inquiries, maintain security, monitor performance, improve content and functionality, comply with legal obligations, and keep business records. We may also use data to communicate service updates and to administer consent or preference settings.
Third-party sharing
We may share personal data with hosting providers, analytics services, payment processors, email or communication tools, and other vendors that support website operations and course delivery. These parties act on our instructions where applicable and are expected to use the data only for the services they provide to us.
Legal basis
We may share personal data with public authorities, regulators, courts, or other third parties when disclosure is required by law, necessary to protect rights or safety, or needed to respond to lawful requests. We may also disclose data in connection with legal claims, fraud prevention, or compliance reviews.
Depending on your location and the way your data is processed, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing, and to receive a copy of certain data in a portable format. You may also have the right to withdraw consent where consent is used as the legal basis. Some requests may be limited where we must keep data for legal or operational reasons.
To exercise a privacy right, submit a request using the contact details in this policy and describe the data or action you are asking about. We may need information to verify your identity and to understand the request. If we cannot comply fully, we will explain the reason where permitted by law.
We retain personal data for the period needed to provide the service, manage our relationship with you, meet legal, accounting, or tax obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. When data is no longer required, we delete it or anonymize it, unless a longer retention period is required by law.
We may update this privacy policy to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or the services we provide. When changes are material, we will take reasonable steps to make the updated version available and indicate the effective date where appropriate.
We may collect identification details, contact information, account or course registration data, payment-related information handled through our payment providers, communications you send to us, and technical data such as device type, browser information, log data, and approximate location derived from IP address. Where relevant to course delivery, we may also process information you choose to provide about your professional background or learning preferences.
We receive personal data directly from you when you submit forms, create an account, enroll in a course, make an inquiry, or communicate with us. We also collect data automatically through the website and cookies, and we may receive limited information from payment processors, analytics providers, and other operational partners that support our services.
The site may use strictly necessary cookies to support core functions, functional cookies to remember settings, and analytics cookies to understand how the site is used. Cookies may be session-based or persistent. Where required, non-essential cookies are used only with appropriate consent or other lawful basis.
You can manage cookies through your browser settings and may be able to block or delete certain cookies. If the site provides a cookie preference tool, you can use it to change non-essential settings. Some cookies are necessary for basic site functions, and limiting them may affect performance or access to certain features.

Where GDPR applies, you may have the right to access your personal data, request correction or deletion, restrict or object to certain processing, and request data portability in some cases.
