We base our data processing on several legal foundations under Australian privacy law, including consent for marketing communications, contractual necessity for course delivery, and legitimate interests for platform improvement and security.
Marketing Communications: We only send promotional materials with your explicit consent. You can withdraw consent at any time through your account settings or by contacting us directly.
4 Information Sharing and Disclosure
Service Providers
We work with carefully selected service providers who assist in platform operations. These include payment processors, cloud hosting services, email delivery platforms, and analytics providers. All service providers are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and process data only as directed by us.
Educational Partners
Some courses may involve collaboration with guest instructors or industry professionals. When relevant, we may share your course-related information with these educational partners, but only with your prior consent and for legitimate educational purposes.
Legal Requirements
We may disclose personal information when required by Australian law, court orders, or regulatory requirements. This includes cooperation with law enforcement agencies and compliance with taxation obligations.
We never sell personal information to third parties and maintain strict controls over data sharing arrangements.
5 Data Security and Storage
Protecting your information is fundamental to our operations. We implement comprehensive security measures including:
- SSL encryption for all data transmission
- Secure cloud storage with redundant backups
- Multi-factor authentication for administrative access
- Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments
- Employee training on privacy and security protocols
- Incident response procedures for potential breaches
Data Storage Locations
Primary data storage occurs within Australia using local cloud infrastructure. Some service providers may store data internationally, but we ensure adequate privacy protections through contractual safeguards and compliance with Australian data transfer requirements.
Despite our security efforts, no system is completely immune to risks. We maintain incident response procedures and will notify affected users promptly if a security incident occurs, as required by Australian privacy law.
