​
To Improve Our Services
We may use aggregated, non-personal information to improve our programs and services.
Third-Party

To deliver online workshops, we may use video conferencing or webinar platforms (e.g. Zoom, Google Meet). These platforms may collect metadata or usage analytics according to their own privacy policies. We recommend reviewing the privacy policy of the platform you use to access our sessions.

We also use third-party service providers (e.g. payment processors, email systems, transcription services). They are contractually required to maintain confidentiality and only use data to the extent needed for their tasks.

Data Retention
We retain personal information for up to five years after a student’s last enrolment unless a request for deletion is made, or legal obligations require longer retention.

Security Measures
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse.
​
Children & Minors
Enrolments for under-18s must be completed by a parent or guardian, who also consents to online participation and any recordings. Requests to access, change, or delete a minor’s data must come from the guardian. Recordings or student work are shared only with guardians or authorised participants, never publicly.
