GDPR Principles

We adhere to the following GDPR principles when processing personal data:

Lawfulness, Fairness, and Transparency

We process personal data lawfully, fairly, and in a transparent manner. We clearly communicate what data we collect, why we collect it, and how we use it through our privacy policy and direct communications.

Purpose Limitation

We collect personal data for specific, explicit, and legitimate purposes related to delivering our educational programmes. We do not use your data for unrelated purposes without your consent.

Data Minimisation

We collect only the personal data that is necessary for our stated purposes. We do not request or retain excessive information.

Accuracy

We take reasonable steps to ensure personal data is accurate and up to date. We provide mechanisms for you to update or correct your information.

Storage Limitation

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected or to comply with legal obligations. See our privacy policy for specific retention periods.

Integrity and Confidentiality

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or damage.

Your Rights Under GDPR

GDPR grants you specific rights regarding your personal data. Here's how to exercise them:

Right of Access

You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. We will provide this information in a commonly used electronic format.

To request access, email us at [email protected] with the subject line "Data Access Request." We will respond within one month of receiving your request.

Right to Rectification

If you believe any personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request correction.

Contact us at [email protected] to update your information. We will make corrections within one month and notify any third parties with whom we've shared the data.

Right to Erasure

Also known as the "right to be forgotten," you can request deletion of your personal data in certain circumstances:

  • The data is no longer necessary for the purposes it was collected
  • You withdraw consent and there is no other legal basis for processing
  • You object to processing and there are no overriding legitimate grounds
  • The data has been unlawfully processed

Note that we may be required to retain certain information for legal or safeguarding purposes, even if you request erasure.

Right to Restriction of Processing

You can request that we limit how we use your personal data in certain situations:

  • You contest the accuracy of the data
  • Processing is unlawful but you prefer restriction to erasure
  • We no longer need the data but you need it for legal claims
  • You've objected to processing pending verification of legitimate grounds

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format and to transmit it to another organisation where technically feasible.

This right applies when processing is based on consent or contract and is carried out by automated means.

Right to Object

You have the right to object to processing of your personal data where we rely on legitimate interests as the legal basis. We will stop processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests, rights, and freedoms.

You have an absolute right to object to processing for direct marketing purposes.

Rights Related to Automated Decision-Making

We do not use automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal effects or similarly significantly affects you.

How to Exercise Your Rights

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us:

Email: [email protected]
Subject line: Include the specific right you wish to exercise (e.g., "Data Access Request")

We will respond to your request within one month. In complex cases, we may extend this period by two months and will inform you of the extension and reasons.

We will not charge a fee for processing requests unless they are manifestly unfounded, excessive, or repetitive.

Data Breach Procedures

In the unlikely event of a data breach that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will:

  • Notify the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach
  • Notify affected individuals without undue delay if the breach poses a high risk to their rights
  • Document the breach, its effects, and remedial action taken
  • Take immediate steps to mitigate harm and prevent future breaches

International Data Transfers

We primarily store and process data within the United Kingdom. If we transfer data outside the UK or European Economic Area, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as:

  • Standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission
  • Adequacy decisions recognising equivalent data protection standards
  • Binding corporate rules for transfers within multinational organisations

Data Protection Officer

Given the nature and scale of our operations, we are not required to appoint a dedicated Data Protection Officer. However, data protection responsibilities are managed by our senior management team.

For all data protection enquiries, contact: [email protected]

Lodging a Complaint

If you believe we have not handled your personal data appropriately or have concerns about our GDPR compliance, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority.

In the United Kingdom, the supervisory authority is:
Information Commissioner's Office (ICO)
Website: www.ico.org.uk
Telephone: 0303 123 1113

We encourage you to contact us first so we can address your concerns directly, but you have the right to contact the ICO at any time.

Updates to This Information

We may update this GDPR compliance information to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. Significant changes will be communicated to enrolled families and posted prominently on our website.
