01 · Purpose

How We Use Data

We use personal data to provide and maintain the website, deliver training content, manage accounts or registrations, respond to inquiries, process transactions where applicable, monitor security, analyse site performance, improve our services, and meet legal or compliance obligations. We may also use data to administer assessments, track course participation, and support business communications related to the services requested.

Processing is limited to operational needs and the purposes described in this notice.
02 · Sharing

Service Providers

We may share personal data with vendors and other service providers that support hosting, analytics, security, communications, payment processing, or administrative operations. These parties act on our instructions or under their own independent role where applicable, and they are expected to use the data only for the services they provide.

Service providers receive only the information needed to perform contracted functions.
User Rights

Your Rights

Depending on your location and the applicable law, you may have rights to access your data, correct inaccurate information, request deletion, object to certain processing, or ask for restriction of processing. Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it for future processing based on consent.

Available rights may vary depending on the legal basis and the nature of the request.
Requests

How to Make a Request

To exercise a privacy right, we may ask for information needed to confirm your identity and understand the scope of the request. We will review the request and respond within the period required by applicable law, or explain if an exception prevents full action.

Requests are handled through a verification process to protect personal data from unauthorised disclosure.
Data Retention

Data Retention

Retention periods depend on the type of data, the purpose for which it was collected, and any legal, accounting, or dispute-related obligations. When data is no longer needed, we delete it, anonymise it, or otherwise place it beyond practical use, subject to applicable retention requirements.

We keep data only for as long as needed for the stated purpose or as required by law.
Policy Updates

Policy Updates

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 revised policy available and, where appropriate, highlight the update on the site.

We review this policy from time to time and record the effective date of material revisions.
GDPR
EU framework

GDPR Overview

Where GDPR applies, we process personal data on a lawful basis such as consent, contract performance, legal obligation, or our legitimate interests, depending on the context. We apply data minimisation, purpose limitation, and security measures appropriate to the nature of the information processed.

Because this website is intended for users in Portugal and other EEA locations, GDPR applies where we determine that an EEA user is within its scope.

This section describes how GDPR rights and obligations are handled for EEA users.
GDPR Rights

GDPR Rights

EEA users may have rights to access, rectify, erase, restrict, or object to processing, and to data portability where applicable. Where processing is based on consent, consent may be withdrawn at any time without affecting prior lawful processing. Users may also lodge a complaint with a competent supervisory authority.

GDPR rights are available subject to verification and any legal exceptions that apply.
