5 Data Security and Retention

We protect your information using industry-standard security measures including encrypted data transmission, secure server infrastructure, and regular security audits. Access to personal data is restricted to authorised personnel who need it for educational service delivery.

Course progress and certification records are retained for seven years to support credential verification. Account information is deleted within 30 days of account closure, though anonymised learning analytics may be retained for platform improvement purposes.
