Information We Collect
The information we collect depends on how you interact with our website and services.
When you create an account, purchase a course, subscribe to our newsletter, complete a contact form, attend an event, or communicate with us, we may collect information such as your name, email address, telephone number, company name, job title, billing information, country of residence, and any information you voluntarily provide.
If you enroll in one of our courses, we may collect information relating to your learning activities. This may include course enrollments, course progress, assessment results, examination scores, certification records, course completion status, continuing professional development (CPD) records, learning preferences, and training history.
When you visit our website, certain technical information may be collected automatically. This may include your IP address, browser type, device information, operating system, referral source, pages visited, session duration, and general location information where available.
We may also collect information from communications you send to us, including customer support enquiries, survey responses, feedback submissions, webinar registrations, and event participation records.
How We Use Your Information
We use personal information to provide, maintain, and improve our services.
This includes managing learner accounts, delivering course content, processing enrollments, issuing certificates, maintaining learning records, responding to enquiries, providing customer support, and administering our website and learning platform.
We may also use information to improve our training programmes, develop new educational content, enhance platform performance, monitor security, prevent fraud, comply with legal obligations, and communicate with learners regarding their courses and certifications.
Where you have provided consent, we may send marketing communications relating to courses, learning resources, events, promotions, industry updates, and other information that may be relevant to your interests.
Legal Basis for Processing
Where applicable under UK GDPR and EU GDPR, we process personal information based on one or more lawful grounds.
Most learner information is processed because it is necessary to fulfil our contractual obligations and provide the services you have requested.
Certain processing activities are based on our legitimate interests, including maintaining platform security, improving our services, analysing website performance, preventing fraud, and communicating with users regarding relevant educational opportunities.
Some processing activities may be required to comply with legal and regulatory obligations.
Where consent is required, such as for certain marketing communications, you may withdraw your consent at any time.
Student Accounts and Learning Records
When you enroll in a course, we create and maintain records necessary to provide educational services.
These records may include enrollment information, assessment results, learning progress, course completion status, certificates, CPD records, and learning achievements.
We retain these records to support learners, verify qualifications, issue replacement certificates, maintain educational integrity, and meet regulatory or business requirements.
Our learners may access portions of their learning records through their account dashboard where available.
Certificates and Qualification Verification
Cloud Security CPD may issue certificates upon successful completion of eligible courses.
To support certificate verification, replacement requests, employer verification enquiries, and quality assurance activities, we may retain certification records for an extended period.
Where verification services are provided, only the minimum amount of information necessary to confirm course completion or certification status will be disclosed.
Corporate and Enterprise Training
Where training services are purchased by employers, educational institutions, government organisations, or corporate clients, we may provide authorised administrators with limited information relating to enrolled learners.
Such information may include enrollment status, learning progress, completion records, assessment outcomes, and certification achievements where necessary to deliver contracted services.
Information shared with corporate clients is limited to what is reasonably required for training administration and reporting.
Marketing Communications
If you subscribe to our newsletter or consent to receive marketing communications, we may send information regarding new courses, educational resources, industry insights, promotions, events, webinars, and other relevant updates.
You may unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions included in our emails or by contacting us directly.
Please note that service-related communications, such as enrollment confirmations, account notifications, certificate information, and support communications, may still be sent where necessary to provide our services.

All service providers are expected to process information securely and only for authorised purposes.
We may also disclose information where required by law, regulatory authorities, courts, law enforcement agencies, or other legal processes.
International Transfers
Your personal information may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your country of residence.
Where international transfers occur, we take reasonable steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place and that personal information receives a level of protection consistent with applicable data protection laws.
Data Security
Protecting information is central to our business and values.
As a provider of cloud security education, we implement technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information from unauthorised access, misuse, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
These measures may include encryption, access controls, multi-factor authentication, secure hosting environments, vulnerability management, security monitoring, audit logging, role-based access controls, and staff security awareness training.
Although we take reasonable steps to safeguard information, no method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Call Recording and Online Sessions
Cloud Security CPD may record telephone calls, webinars, virtual classrooms, live training sessions, and online meetings for quality assurance, training delivery, compliance monitoring, security purposes, and learner support.
Where recordings are made, participants will be informed where required by applicable law.
Recordings are retained only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which they were collected.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy.
Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information, legal obligations, business requirements, certification verification needs, dispute resolution requirements, and regulatory obligations.
When information is no longer required, we take reasonable steps to securely delete or anonymise it.

Depending on your location and applicable laws, you may have rights relating to your personal information.
These rights may include the right to access your information, correct inaccurate information, request deletion, restrict processing, object to certain forms of processing, request portability of your data, and withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
