We do not make decisions based solely on automated processing, we do not profile you, and we do not send you marketing emails unless you have asked to receive them.

4. How long we keep your data

We keep inquiry data for as long as we need it to respond to you and for up to 12 months afterward, unless a contractual relationship follows. Data relating to a contract is kept for the duration of the relationship and afterward for the periods required by law, for example under Spanish commercial and tax law. After that, it is deleted or anonymized.

5. Who we share your data with

We do not sell your personal data. We share it only with service providers that process it on our behalf under a data processing agreement, namely our website hosting provider (Cloudflare, Inc., United States), our contact form provider (Web3Forms, operated by Web3Creative), which delivers form messages to us by email, and our email provider, and with public authorities where the law requires it. If you take part in one of our programs, we share the information needed with the relevant host organization or university, and we tell you when we do so.

6. International transfers

Some of our providers, or their subcontractors, may process data outside the European Economic Area. Where this happens, we make sure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as a European Commission adequacy decision (including the EU-US Data Privacy Framework) or the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.

7. Your rights

You can ask us at any time to access, correct, or delete your personal data, to restrict or object to its processing, or to receive it in a portable format. Where we process your data on the basis of your consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before you withdrew it.

To exercise your rights, email info@globaleducation.io. We may ask you to confirm your identity, and we will reply within one month.

If you believe we have not handled your data properly, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Spanish Data Protection Agency (Agencia Española de Protección de Datos, www.aepd.es).

We apply appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data against loss, misuse, and unauthorized access.
