2. Data Collection and Legal Basis

Where personal data is processed outside the UK, appropriate safeguards, including Standard Contractual Clauses, are used to protect such data in accordance with UK GDPR.

4. Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected. Admissions-related information is retained for a limited period following the last meaningful interaction, after which it is securely deleted. Where retention is required to comply with legal, accounting, or regulatory obligations, data may be retained for longer periods in accordance with UK law.
