We may share personal data with trusted service providers who support our business operations, such as website hosting providers, email and productivity platforms, customer relationship management systems, training delivery tools, payment processors, accountants, professional advisers, and analytics providers. We may also disclose personal data where necessary to comply with legal obligations, protect our rights, enforce our terms, or as part of a business reorganisation or sale. We require processors acting on our behalf to handle personal data in accordance with applicable data protection laws and appropriate contractual safeguards.

Some of our service providers may process personal data outside the UK or European Economic Area. Where this occurs, we take steps to ensure that personal data remains protected through appropriate safeguards, which may include adequacy regulations or decisions, standard contractual clauses, international data transfer agreements, or other lawful transfer mechanisms recognised under applicable law.

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including to provide services, maintain business records, comply with legal, accounting and tax obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of data and the context in which it was collected. When personal data is no longer required, we will delete it securely or anonymise it where appropriate.

To exercise your rights, please contact us using the details in this policy. We may need to verify your identity before responding. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the relevant supervisory authority. In the UK, this is the Information Commissioner's Office. If you are in the EU, you may also contact the supervisory authority in your country of residence, place of work, or where the issue arose.

If you sign up to receive updates from us, we may send you newsletters, insights, invitations, or information about our services.

We encourage you to avoid sending sensitive personal data through unsecured channels unless specifically requested and protected appropriately.

Our website and services are generally intended for business users and adult learners. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children through this website unless this is specifically necessary for a training programme and done with appropriate safeguards and lawful basis.
