Information We Collect

When you interact with our platform, we collect various types of information to provide you with the best possible learning experience. The information we gather helps us tailor our capital budgeting courses to your specific needs and ensure smooth communication throughout your educational journey.

How We Use Your Information

Your information serves multiple purposes within our educational ecosystem. We use it primarily to deliver personalized learning experiences that match your professional development goals. This includes customizing course recommendations, tracking your progress, and providing relevant support materials.

We also use your data to improve our courses based on student feedback and learning patterns. This helps us identify which concepts need additional explanation or which teaching methods work best for different learning styles. Your email address allows us to send important updates about your courses, schedule changes, and new program announcements that might interest you.

Data Sharing and Third Parties

We maintain strict control over who has access to your personal information. Our approach focuses on minimal sharing while ensuring you receive comprehensive educational support. We work with carefully selected service providers who help us deliver our courses effectively.

Our payment processors handle financial transactions securely, and our learning management system providers help deliver course content. These partners are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and can only use your data for the specific services they provide to us.

Your Privacy Rights

As a resident of Canada, you have specific rights regarding your personal information under applicable privacy legislation. We respect these rights and have established clear procedures for you to exercise them.

To exercise any of these rights, simply contact us using the information provided below. We typically respond to requests within 30 days and will verify your identity before processing any changes to your account.

Data Security Measures

Protecting your information is one of our top priorities. We've implemented multiple layers of security to safeguard your personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. Our security measures include encrypted data transmission, secure server environments, and regular security audits.

All payment information is processed through PCI-compliant systems, and we use industry-standard encryption for sensitive data storage. Our staff receives regular training on privacy and security best practices, and access to personal information is limited to employees who need it to perform their job functions.

While we take extensive precautions, no online system is completely immune to security threats. We continuously monitor our systems and update our security protocols to address emerging risks in the digital learning environment.

Data Retention Periods

We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to provide our services and meet legal obligations. Different types of information have different retention periods based on their purpose and regulatory requirements.

When retention periods expire, we securely delete or anonymize your information. You can request earlier deletion of certain data types, though this might affect our ability to provide ongoing support or verify your course completion.

International Data Transfers

Our primary servers are located in Canada, ensuring your data remains within Canadian jurisdiction. However, some of our service providers may process data in other countries with adequate privacy protections. When international transfers occur, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place.

We conduct due diligence on all international service providers and require them to maintain privacy standards equivalent to Canadian requirements. Any cross-border data transfers comply with applicable privacy legislation and include appropriate contractual protections.
