  • Trainer verification checks: when You apply as a Trainer We may undertake qualification checks and ask for verification to evidence that You qualified at the institute You purport to have attended and request a copy of a valid ID card or passport (e.g. a driving licence etc.). We also ask for information to demonstrate that You have the right to work in the UK.
  • Trainer Registration Details: this information may include a Trainers’ educational background and qualifications, area of expertise re subjects, one profile picture and video or hardcopy curriculum vitae (“CV“), applicable coaching Fees, Trainer availability and gender.

  1. If You fail to provide personal data

  1. Marketing

We strive to provide You with choices regarding certain personal data uses, particularly around marketing and advertising. We have established the following personal data control mechanisms:

  • Promotional offers from Us

We may use your identity, contact, technical, usage and profile data to form a view on what We think You may want or need, or what may be of interest to You. This is how We decide which services and offers may be relevant for You (We call this marketing).

You will receive marketing communications from Us if You have requested information from Us or purchased services from Us and You have not opted out of receiving that marketing.

  • Third-party marketing

We will get your express opt-in consent before We share your personal data with any third party for marketing purposes.

  • Opting out

You can ask Us or third parties to stop sending You marketing messages at any time by following the opt-out links on any marketing message sent to You or by contacting Us any time at David.millard@empowering-learning.co.uk.

Where You opt out of receiving these marketing messages, this will not apply to personal data provided to Us as a result of a service purchase, service experience or other transactions.

  • Cookies

You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert You when websites set or access cookies. If You disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of Our Site and App may become inaccessible or not function properly. For more information about the cookies We use, please see https://www2.myfamilycoach.com/cookie-policy-uk/

 

  • Change of purpose

We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which We collected it, unless We reasonably consider that We need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If You wish to get an explanation as to how the processing for the new purpose is compatible with the original purpose, please contact Us.

If We need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, We will notify You and We will explain the legal basis which allows Us to do so.

Please note that We may process your personal data without your knowledge or consent, in compliance with the above rules, where this is required or permitted by law.

  1. Disclosures of your personal data

Your personal information may also be viewed by:

  • Trainers (where You are a User); or
  • Users (where You are a Trainer),

for the sole purposes of enabling a Trainer to deliver their Training Services direct to a User and to provide a User with information about a Trainer’s Services. If You (as a User) make a course booking via Our Site, your personal information will be shared with your selected Trainer to enable the Trainer to deliver the Training Services or to follow up on any enquiry. Such details may include: first name and initial of surname, the contents of your message, and the subject and course You requested.

If You (as a Trainer) upload personal information on Our Site (e.g. by creating a profile), personal information in your profile may be accessible by any User who visits Our Site. The personal information shared may include your first name and the initial of your surname, your profile picture, university details, your CV, your qualifications, your training subjects and Trainer Fees, your training record and User Feedback. Publishing this personal data is essential for You (as a Trainer) to make use of Our Site and the Training Services.

If You (as a User) send a message to another User on Our Site (whether it be User to User or Trainer to User or vice versa), You acknowledge that TT may monitor the content of your message to fulfil our obligations under the Terms of Use and to protect our Legitimate Interests.

In addition to the above, We may share your personal data with the parties set out below for the purposes set out in the table above:

  • External Third Parties as set out in the Glossary.
  • Specific third parties such as:
  • Google Firebase;
  • Google Tag Manager; and
  • Facebook Pixel.
  • Third parties, to whom We may choose to sell, transfer or merge parts of Our business or Our assets. Alternatively, We may seek to acquire other businesses or merge with them. If a change happens to Our business, then the new owners may use your personal data in the same way as set out in this privacy policy.

We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with Applicable Data Protection Laws. You should be aware that we may release your Personal Information (which will include your financial information, if necessary) when We believe it is necessary to comply with Applicable Laws, to assist law enforcement, to enforce the terms under which You transacted with TT, or to protect the rights, property or safety of TT, the Site, App and/or other Users. We do not allow Our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with Our instructions.

  1. International transfers

Many of Our external third parties are based outside the European Economic Area (EEA) so their processing of your personal data will involve a transfer of data outside the EEA.

Whenever We transfer your personal data out of the EEA, We take additional steps to ensure that your information is protected to at least an equivalent level, as required by applicable data protection laws.

Please contact Us if You want further information on the specific mechanism used by Us when transferring your personal data out of the EEA.

  1. Data security

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, We limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on Our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify You and any applicable regulator of a breach where We are legally required to do so.

  1. Data retention

We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes We collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. We may retain your personal data for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if We reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to Our relationship with You.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, We consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which We process your personal data and whether We can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.

In some circumstances You can ask Us to delete your data: see your legal rights below for further information.

In some circumstances We will anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with You) for research or statistical purposes, in which case We may use this information indefinitely without further notice to You.

  1. Your legal rights

No fee usually required

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, We may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, We could refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

What We may need from You

We may need to request specific information from You to help Us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact You to ask You for further information in relation to your request to speed up Our response.

Time limit to respond

We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it could take Us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or You have made a number of requests. In this case, We will notify You and keep You updated.

We do not use your personal data for activities where Our interests are overridden by the impact on You (unless We have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted to by law). You can obtain further information about how We assess Our Legitimate Interests against any potential impact on You in respect of specific activities by contacting Us.

Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables You to receive a copy of the personal data We hold about You and to check that We are lawfully processing it.

Request correction of the personal data that We hold about You. This enables You to have any incomplete or inaccurate data We hold about You corrected, though We may need to verify the accuracy of the new data You provide to Us.

Request erasure of your personal data. This enables You to ask Us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for Us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask Us to delete or remove your personal data where You have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where We may have processed your information unlawfully or where We are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that We may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to You, if applicable, at the time of your request.

Object to processing of your personal data where We are relying on a Legitimate Interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes You want to object to processing on this ground as You feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where We are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, We may demonstrate that We have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which overrides your rights and freedoms.

Request restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables You to ask Us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios:

  • If You want Us to establish the data’s accuracy.
  • Where Our use of the data is unlawful but You do not want Us to erase it.
  • Where You need Us to hold the data even if We no longer require it as You need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
  • You have objected to Our use of your data but We need to verify whether We have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.

Request the transfer of your personal data to You or to a third party. We will provide to You, or a third party You have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which You initially provided consent for Us to use or where We used the information to perform a contract with You.

Withdraw consent at any time where We are relying on consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before You withdraw your consent. If You withdraw your consent, We may not be able to provide certain PAYG and/or Free Services to You. We will advise You if this is the case at the time You withdraw your consent.
