This Privacy Policy explains how Linguist Lounge processes personal data when you use donkeytipcandy.click, contact us, request course information, or take part in our language courses and tutoring services.
This overview highlights the principal topics addressed in this notice and directs readers to the relevant support path when further clarification is needed.
Subject to applicable law, you may have rights to access your data, correct inaccurate information, request deletion, object to certain processing, and obtain a copy of data you provided. Some requests may be limited where we must retain information for legal or operational reasons.
To exercise a right, we may ask for information needed to verify your identity and understand the request. We will respond within the period required by applicable law and may ask for clarification if the request is unclear or incomplete.
We keep personal data only for as long as needed for course administration, communication, accounting, dispute handling, and legal compliance. When the retention period ends, data is deleted, anonymised, or archived where required by law.
If we make material changes, we will update the notice on the site and may provide an additional notice where appropriate. The revised version applies from the stated effective date.
Personal data is used to respond to inquiries, assess starting level, match learners to suitable groups and timetables, confirm course terms, manage enrolment, organise scheduled lessons, support guided practice, review progress, process payments, maintain records, and meet legal obligations. We may also use limited technical data to keep the website and online lesson arrangements functioning properly.
We may share personal data with service providers that support hosting, communications, scheduling, payment processing, or other administrative functions. These recipients may process data only for the services they provide to us and under appropriate confidentiality and security obligations.
We may disclose personal data where required to comply with law, a court order, or a lawful request from a public authority. We may also share information to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
As a controller, we process personal data only where we have a lawful basis, such as performance of a contract, compliance with legal obligations, legitimate interests, or consent where required. We limit processing to what is necessary for the operation of language courses, tutoring, and related administration.
Where GDPR applies, individuals may request access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, and data portability, and may withdraw consent where processing relies on consent. If a request cannot be fully granted, we will explain the reason where permitted by law.
We may process identification and contact details, course inquiry information, level screening responses, timetable preferences, enrolment records, payment-related records, attendance information, lesson communication, and progress notes. Where online lessons are used, we may also process technical data needed to connect and manage the session.
We receive data from forms, messages, booking requests, consultation calls, enrolment steps, and lesson participation. We may also generate data from internal administration, scheduling, progress review, and website or device interactions needed to operate the service.
We may use essential cookies for basic site operation, preference cookies to remember settings, and analytics or performance cookies to understand how the site is used. Some cookies expire when the browser is closed, while others remain stored for a limited period.
