Your Rights

Depending on applicable law, you may have rights to access your data, request correction or deletion, object to certain processing, or ask for restriction of processing. You may also have the right to receive a copy of certain data in a portable format. Some requests may be limited where we must keep information for legal, security, or contractual reasons.

Available rights depend on your location and the legal basis for processing.
Requests

How to Make a Request

To make a privacy request, provide enough information for us to identify you and understand the request. We may ask for additional details to verify identity or clarify the scope of the request. If a request is refused in whole or in part, we will explain the reason where required by law.

Requests are reviewed for identity, scope, and legal exceptions before action is taken.
Data Retention

Data Retention

We keep personal data only for as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, including account administration, course delivery, recordkeeping, dispute handling, and legal compliance. When data is no longer required, we delete it, anonymize it, or store it in a restricted form if retention is needed for a lawful reason.

Retention is based on the purpose of collection, legal duties, and operational need.
Policy Updates

When we make material changes, we will update the policy on the website and may provide additional notice where appropriate. The revised version takes effect when posted unless a later effective date is stated. We encourage you to review this policy periodically so you remain informed about our practices.

We may revise this policy to reflect legal, technical, or operational changes.
