Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters to us at calverionuthaq
Last updated: March 15, 2025
1 Introduction
At calverionuthaq, we're committed to protecting your personal information and being transparent about how we collect, use, and share your data. This privacy policy explains our practices regarding personal data collection when you use our financial ratio understanding platform at calverionuthaq.com.
We operate under UK data protection laws, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. This means you have strong rights regarding your personal information, and we're required to handle your data lawfully, fairly, and transparently.
"We believe financial education should be accessible without compromising your privacy. Every piece of data we collect serves a specific purpose in improving your learning experience."
2 Information We Collect
We collect different types of information to provide and improve our financial education services. Here's what we gather and why:
Account Information
Name, email address, phone number, and billing address when you create an account or enroll in our learning programs.
Learning Data
Course progress, quiz results, time spent on modules, and learning preferences to personalize your educational experience.
Technical Information
IP address, browser type, device information, and website usage patterns to maintain security and improve functionality.
Communication Records
Messages you send through our contact forms, support tickets, and any feedback you provide about our courses.
We never collect sensitive financial information like bank account numbers, credit card details (these are processed securely by our payment provider), or personal investment portfolios unless you specifically choose to share examples for educational purposes.
3 How We Use Your Information
Your data helps us deliver better financial education and maintain our platform. We use your information for these specific purposes:
- Providing access to our learning materials and tracking your progress through courses
- Sending you course updates, educational resources, and important account notifications
- Personalizing your learning experience based on your progress and preferences
- Processing payments for premium courses and generating invoices
- Responding to your questions and providing customer support
- Improving our course content based on how students interact with materials
- Ensuring platform security and preventing fraudulent activity
- Complying with legal obligations and regulatory requirements
We base our data processing on several legal grounds under UK GDPR, including your consent, our legitimate interests in providing educational services, contractual necessity for delivering courses you've purchased, and legal obligations we must fulfill as an educational provider.
4 Data Sharing and Third Parties
We don't sell your personal information to anyone. However, we do work with trusted partners who help us deliver our educational services:
- Payment processors: Stripe and PayPal handle payment transactions securely without us storing your financial details
- Email service provider: Mailchimp manages our course notifications and educational newsletters
- Cloud hosting: AWS provides secure hosting for our platform and learning materials
- Analytics tools: Google Analytics helps us understand how students use our website (with anonymized data)
- Customer support: Zendesk manages support tickets and communication history
All our partners are required to protect your data according to UK and EU standards. We have data processing agreements with each provider that limit how they can use your information.
We may also share your data if required by law, to protect our legal rights, or in the event of a business merger or acquisition (though we'd notify you first).
5 Your Rights and Control
Under UK data protection law, you have significant rights regarding your personal information. Here's what you can do:
Access Your Data
Request a copy of all personal information we hold about you, including your learning progress and account history.
Correct Information
Update any incorrect or incomplete personal details in your account or ask us to fix inaccurate records.
Delete Your Data
Request deletion of your personal information, though we may need to keep some records for legal or educational purposes.
Restrict Processing
Limit how we use your data while you resolve concerns about accuracy or our processing activities.
Data Portability
Receive your data in a structured format to transfer to another educational provider if you choose.
Object to Processing
Stop us from processing your data for specific purposes like marketing communications.
To exercise any of these rights, simply email us at info@calverionuthaq.com with your request. We'll respond within one month and won't charge you unless your request is clearly unfounded or excessive.
6 Data Security and Retention
We take data security seriously and use multiple layers of protection to safeguard your information:
- All data transmission uses SSL encryption to prevent interception
- Our servers are protected by firewalls and undergo regular security audits
- Staff access to personal data is limited and monitored
- We use secure backup systems with encryption at rest
- Regular security training keeps our team updated on best practices
We keep your personal data only as long as necessary. Account information is retained while your account is active plus 3 years after closure. Learning progress data is kept for 7 years to support long-term educational research, but can be deleted earlier upon request.
If a data breach occurs that poses a high risk to your rights and freedoms, we'll notify you within 72 hours along with steps you can take to protect yourself.
7 Cookies and Tracking
Our website uses cookies to improve your experience and help us understand how students interact with our content. Here's what we use:
- Essential cookies: Required for login, course access, and basic website functionality
- Analytics cookies: Google Analytics tracks anonymous usage patterns to help us improve course design
- Preference cookies: Remember your settings like language preferences and course bookmarks
- Marketing cookies: Show you relevant course recommendations (only with your consent)

8 International Data Transfers
Some of our service providers are located outside the UK and European Economic Area. When we transfer your data internationally, we ensure adequate protection through:
- EU adequacy decisions for countries with equivalent data protection standards
- Standard contractual clauses approved by UK and EU authorities
- Certification schemes and codes of conduct that meet UK GDPR requirements
For example, our cloud hosting provider AWS maintains servers in EU regions and has certified compliance with UK data protection standards. We never transfer data to countries without adequate protection measures in place.
9 Changes to This Policy
We review this privacy policy annually or whenever we make significant changes to our data practices. When we update the policy, we'll:
- Post the new version on our website with an updated "last modified" date

- Highlight key changes in our course announcements
- Maintain previous versions for reference upon request
If changes significantly affect how we use your data, we may ask for renewed consent or provide opt-out options where legally required.
