5. Sharing of Information
We do not sell your personal data. We may share your information with:
Service providers: Third-party vendors who assist us in operating the Service, including hosting providers, payment processors, email delivery services, and analytics platforms. These parties are contractually bound to process data only on our behalf and in accordance with this policy.
Instructors and group session participants: In the context of group learning sessions, limited profile information (such as your display name) may be visible to other participants and to the instructor.
Business transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your data may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you of any such change and any choices you may have.
Legal authorities: When required by law, court order, or other legal process, or when we believe disclosure is necessary to protect rights, property, or safety.
6. Data Retention
We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. If you close your account, we will delete or anonymize your personal data within a reasonable period, except where we are required to retain it for legal, tax, or regulatory purposes.
Learning records and transaction histories may be retained for a longer period as required by applicable law or for dispute resolution purposes.
7. Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include encryption in transit (TLS), hashed credential storage, access controls, and regular security reviews.
No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. While we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials.
