If you choose to register or log in using a third-party authentication provider (such as a social login service), we may receive basic profile information from that provider, subject to your privacy settings on that platform. We may also receive information from payment processors to confirm transaction status.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
Service delivery: To create and manage your account, process enrollments, deliver workshop content, track your progress, and enable interactive features such as assignments and collaborative exercises.
Communication: To send you transactional messages (account confirmations, receipts, password resets), service announcements, and, where permitted, educational updates or promotional information. You may opt out of non-essential communications at any time.

Contractual necessity: Processing required to provide the Service you have requested, including account management and content delivery.
Legitimate interests: Processing that serves our legitimate business interests, such as improving the platform, maintaining security, and communicating relevant updates, provided these interests are not overridden by your rights.
Consent: Where you have given clear, informed consent, such as subscribing to optional communications. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.
Legal obligation: Processing necessary to comply with applicable laws or respond to legal processes.

5. Sharing of Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information in the following limited circumstances:
Service providers: We engage trusted third-party vendors to help operate the Service, including hosting providers, payment processors, email delivery services, and analytics platforms. These parties access only the data necessary to perform their functions and are contractually required to protect it.
Educational facilitators: Workshop instructors or facilitators may have access to your submitted work, progress data, and participation records for the purpose of delivering and evaluating your learning experience.
Business transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred to the successor entity, subject to equivalent privacy protections.
Legal requirements: We may disclose information when required by law, court order, or governmental authority, or when we believe disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of our users or the public.
With your consent: We may share information for other purposes with your explicit consent.
6. Data Retention
We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. We also retain data as necessary to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
When information is no longer required, we delete or anonymize it using secure methods. Certain aggregated or anonymized data that cannot reasonably be used to identify you may be retained indefinitely for research and improvement purposes.
If you request deletion of your account, we will process the request within a reasonable timeframe and delete or anonymize your personal data, except where retention is required by law or legitimate business necessity.
7. Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include encrypted data transmission (TLS), hashed credential storage, access controls, and regular security assessments.
No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security. In the event of a data breach that poses a risk to your rights, we will notify you as required by applicable law.

11. International Data Transfers
Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than the country in which you reside. These countries may have data protection laws that differ from those in your jurisdiction. Where such transfers occur, we take appropriate safeguards to ensure your data is protected in accordance with this policy and applicable law, including the use of standard contractual clauses or equivalent mechanisms where required.
