We may collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us when you express an interest in obtaining information about us or our services, when you participate in activities on our site, or otherwise contact us. The personal information that we collect depends on the context of your interactions with us and our site, the choices you make, and the services you use. This may include:

This information is primarily needed to maintain the security and operation of our site and for our internal analytics and reporting purposes.

- To provide and manage our services, including course registration and administration.

Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)
For individuals in the European Economic Area (EEA), our legal basis for collecting and using your personal information will depend on the information concerned and the specific context in which we collect it. We will normally collect personal information from you only where we have your consent to do so, where we need the personal information to perform a contract with you (e.g., to provide the acting course services you have enrolled in), or where the processing is in our legitimate business interests and not overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms.
Sharing Your Information
We may share your information with third-party vendors, service providers, contractors, or agents who perform services for us or on our behalf, such as payment processing, data analysis, email delivery (though we will not use this for contact purposes within this policy), hosting services, customer service, and marketing assistance. We may also disclose your information to comply with legal processes, respond to governmental requests, enforce our terms and policies, or protect the rights and safety of others.
Data Security
We have implemented appropriate technical and organisational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorised third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information.
Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your location, particularly if you are in the EEA, you may have the following rights regarding your personal information:
- The right to access: You have the right to request copies of your personal data.
- The right to rectification: You have the right to request that we correct any information you believe is inaccurate or complete information you believe is incomplete.
- The right to erasure: You have the right to request that we erase your personal data under certain conditions.
- The right to restrict processing: You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data under certain conditions.
- The right to object to processing: You have the right to object to our processing of your personal data under certain conditions.
- The right to data portability: You have the right to request that we transfer the data that we have collected to another organisation, or directly to you, under certain conditions.
- The right to withdraw consent: Where we are processing your personal information based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the physical address provided below.
Data Retention
We will retain your personal information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymise it or, if this is not possible, securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to access or store information. Specific information about how we use such technologies and how you can refuse certain cookies is provided in our Cookie Policy (if available separately) or within this policy.
Third-Party Websites
Our site may contain links to third-party websites that are not operated by us. We do not control these third-party sites and are not responsible for their privacy practices. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of every site you visit.
Children's Privacy
Our services are not intended for children under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 18. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under age 18 without verification of parental consent, we take steps to remove that information from our servers.
Updates to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by an updated date and the updated version will be effective as soon as it is accessible. We encourage you to review this privacy policy frequently to be informed of how we are protecting your information.
