3. LinkedIn Lead Generation Forms
We may advertise our educational products and services through LinkedIn and use LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms to allow interested individuals to contact us without leaving LinkedIn.

LinkedIn processes personal information in accordance with its own privacy practices and policies.
4. How We Use Your Personal Information
We may use your personal information to:
Respond to enquiries and requests for information
Contact you regarding products or services you have enquired about
Provide educational resources, products and services
Process and administer orders
Provide customer support
Maintain our relationship with schools, educators and customers
Improve our products, services and websites
Maintain appropriate business and financial records
Comply with legal and regulatory requirements
Send marketing communications where we have an appropriate lawful basis to do so
Submitting an enquiry about a particular product does not automatically mean that you have agreed to receive unrelated marketing communications from us.
5. Our Legal Bases for Processing
Under GDPR, we must have a lawful basis for processing personal data.
Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on:
Consent — where you have specifically agreed to a particular use of your information.
Legitimate interests — where processing is reasonably necessary for our legitimate business activities and those interests are not overridden by your rights and interests.
Contract — where processing is necessary to enter into or perform a contract with you.
Legal obligation — where we are required to process or retain information to comply with the law.
Where you submit an enquiry requesting information about one of our products or services, we will use the information you provide to respond to that request.
6. Marketing Communications
Where permitted by applicable law, we may send you information about relevant products, resources or services.
Where consent is required for a particular type of marketing communication, we will request that consent separately.
You can unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time by using the unsubscribe option included in the communication or by contacting us at [email address].
We will still be able to send necessary non-marketing communications relating to an existing enquiry, transaction or service.
7. Sharing Your Information
We do not sell your personal information.
We may share personal information with trusted service providers where necessary to operate our organisation and provide our services. These may include providers of:
Website hosting and e-commerce services
Email and communications services
Customer relationship management systems
Payment processing
IT and technical support
Analytics and advertising services
Professional services such as accounting or legal services
We may also disclose information where required by law or where reasonably necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
Where third parties process personal data on our behalf, we take appropriate steps to ensure that the information is handled securely and in accordance with applicable data protection requirements.
8. International Transfers
Some service providers we use may process information outside Ireland or the European Economic Area.
Where personal information is transferred internationally, we take appropriate steps to ensure that applicable safeguards required by data protection law are in place.
9. How Long We Keep Your Information
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including satisfying legal, accounting and reporting requirements.
The appropriate retention period will depend on the type of information, why it was collected and any applicable legal requirements.
Where information is no longer required, we will delete or anonymise it as appropriate.
10. Your Data Protection Rights
Subject to applicable data protection law, you may have the right to:
Request access to personal information we hold about you
Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information
Request deletion of your personal information in certain circumstances
Request restriction of processing
Object to certain processing
Request the transfer of certain personal information
Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
To exercise your rights, contact us at [privacy/contact email].
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Data Protection Commission (DPC) in Ireland if you believe your personal information has been processed in breach of applicable data protection law.
11. Cookies and Website Technologies
Our websites may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the website, remember preferences, understand website usage and, where applicable and permitted, measure or support advertising.
Where required by law, non-essential cookies will only be used after the appropriate consent has been obtained.
Further information may be provided through our website's cookie notice or cookie settings.
12. Security
We use appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.
While no method of electronic storage or transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure, we take reasonable measures appropriate to the nature of the information we process.
13. Third-Party Websites and Platforms
Our websites and advertisements may contain links to third-party websites or services, including LinkedIn and other platforms.
Those organisations operate under their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review their policies when using their services.
