This Privacy Policy explains how Linguistic Edge processes personal data in connection with its website and language course services. It applies to inquiries, enrolment, course administration, and related communications.
This summary highlights how to navigate the information provided in this policy.
We may process identification and contact details, inquiry and enrolment information, level screening results, course preferences, timetable choices, attendance-related records, payment-related information, and technical data such as device and usage details. Where relevant, we also process communications sent through the website or by other booking methods.
We receive data when a user submits an inquiry, requests level screening, arranges group and timetable matching, confirms course terms, enrols, or communicates with us. We also collect limited technical data through the website and may generate internal records during course administration, progress review, and service delivery.
The website may use essential cookies for core functions, preference cookies to remember settings, and analytics cookies to understand general site use. Cookies may be session-based or persistent, depending on their purpose and lifespan.
Users may block or delete cookies through their browser settings. Some cookies are necessary for the website to function, while others support analytics or preference storage. Disabling certain cookies may affect site performance or limit some features.
We use personal data to respond to inquiries, assess course suitability, arrange group and timetable matching, confirm course terms, manage enrolment, organise scheduled lessons, support guided practice, review progress, process payments, maintain records, operate the website, and meet legal or security obligations.
We may share data with trusted service providers that support website hosting, communications, administration, or payment processing. We may also share information with professional advisers or other operational partners where needed to deliver the service or manage our business.
We may disclose personal data when necessary to comply with legal duties, respond to lawful requests, protect rights, or address security and fraud concerns. Such disclosures are limited to what is reasonably required in the circumstances.
When GDPR applies, we process personal data on a lawful basis such as consent, contract performance, legal obligation, or legitimate interests, depending on the context. We limit processing to what is relevant for course administration, website operation, communication, and related compliance needs.
Where GDPR applies, it governs our processing of personal data of individuals in the European Economic Area.
Where applicable, individuals may request access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, or objection. Consent may be withdrawn at any time for processing based on consent, without affecting prior lawful processing.
Depending on the circumstances, individuals may have rights to access their data, request correction, object to certain processing, or seek deletion where permitted by law. Some requests may be limited if we must keep information for legal, contractual, or operational reasons.
To exercise a right, a person should provide enough information for us to identify the relevant data and assess the request. We may ask for additional details where needed to protect privacy and prevent unauthorised disclosure.
Personal data is retained for the period necessary to handle inquiries, administer courses, maintain business records, and meet legal obligations. When data is no longer needed, it is deleted, anonymised, or otherwise removed from active use in line with our retention practices.
The updated version will apply from the date stated in the revised notice. If changes are material, we will take reasonable steps to make them visible on the website or through another appropriate communication channel.
