Privacy Policy
Effective date: 2026-03-23 · Applies to Mediavo Digital Academy.
This policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, how long we keep it, and the choices you have.
We do not run third‑party trackers on this page. Preference storage is local to your device.
Data We Collect
We collect only the data we need to deliver courses, maintain account access, and protect our services from abuse. Depending on how you use our site, we may collect:
- Account data: name, email address, login identifiers, password hashes (never stored in plain text).
- Course activity: lesson progress, completion status, quiz submissions (if available), timestamps.
- Support communications: messages you send, attachments you provide, and our replies.
- Technical data: approximate device/browser info, pages viewed, and security logs to help detect fraud and attacks.
- Preference data: theme setting and cookie consent choice stored locally on your device.
In plain English
We store what we need to run your account, remember what lessons you’ve completed, and keep the site secure. We don’t collect “extra” sensitive data categories on purpose.
Optional fields and what happens if you skip them
If a form includes optional fields (for example, a profile bio), you can leave them blank. Optional information is used only for the feature you’re interacting with.
How We Use Data
We use collected data for the following purposes, based on the feature you’re using and the minimum necessary scope:
- Provide, maintain, and improve courses and the learning experience.
- Authenticate users and protect accounts.
- Respond to support requests and communicate service-related messages.
- Prevent abuse, debug issues, and maintain platform security.
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our policies.
In plain English
We mainly use your info to let you log in, access your courses, and to contact you about important service updates. We also use basic technical logs to keep the site safe.
Legal bases (GDPR-style overview)
- Contract: to provide the service you requested (courses, account access).
- Legitimate interests: to secure, maintain, and improve the platform.
- Consent: for optional preference storage such as remembering theme and cookie choice on your device.
- Legal obligation: when we must retain certain records for compliance.
Data Retention
We keep personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including to provide the service, meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.
- Account data is retained while your account is active.
- Support messages may be retained to maintain a helpful record and improve support quality.
- Security logs are retained for a limited period appropriate for fraud prevention and incident response.
In plain English
We don’t keep your data forever. We keep it while it’s needed to run your account and for limited legal/security reasons.
Deletion requests
You can request deletion. Some records may need to be retained for legal compliance or security purposes, but we will minimize what is kept and restrict access.
Your Rights
Depending on your location and applicable laws, you may have rights regarding your personal information:
- Request access to the personal data we hold about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Request deletion (subject to legal and security exceptions).
- Object to or restrict certain processing in specific circumstances.
- Request data portability (where applicable).
- Withdraw consent for optional processing (like preference storage) by changing your local settings.
In plain English
You can ask what we have about you, fix it, or request deletion. If the law requires us to keep something (like certain billing records), we’ll explain what we can’t delete and why.
How to submit a request
Use the contact details at the end of this policy. To protect your account, we may ask you to verify your identity before responding.
Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect your information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration.
- Access controls and least-privilege practices.
- Secure authentication and session protections.
- Monitoring and logging for abuse prevention.
In plain English
We take security seriously, but no system can be guaranteed 100% secure. If you suspect an issue, contact us quickly.
Children’s Privacy
Our services are not directed to children under the age where parental consent is required under applicable law. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate steps.
In plain English
This platform is for adults or learners old enough to use it legally. If a child’s data ends up here, we’ll help remove it.
International Transfers
If you access our services from outside the country where our systems or providers operate, your information may be processed across borders. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards designed to protect your information.
In plain English
Your data might be handled in another country depending on hosting and support tools. We aim to keep protections consistent.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make significant changes, we will provide notice through the service or by other appropriate means. The “Effective date” at the top indicates when this version applies.
In plain English
If we change something important, we’ll let you know. Minor edits may happen without a big announcement.
