Privacy Policy

Last updated:

This Privacy Policy explains how EditMaster Academy (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, shares, and protects information when you use our website, courses, and related services (the “Services”). We design our practices to be transparent and globally compatible, including for users in regions with privacy laws such as GDPR and CCPA/CPRA.

Data We Collect

We collect information that helps us operate and improve the Services. We avoid unnecessary data and we do not sell personal information.

  • Account and profile data: name, email address, password (stored as a secure hash), course enrollment status, and preferences.
  • Payment and billing: when purchases are available, payments may be processed by third-party providers. We receive limited billing metadata (e.g., transaction status) rather than full card details.
  • Usage and device data: approximate location (derived from IP), device type, browser, pages viewed, referral URLs, and diagnostic events (e.g., errors).
  • Communications: messages you send us, support requests, survey responses, and feedback.
  • Cookie and local storage data: stored on your device to enable core functionality (e.g., sessions) and preferences (e.g., theme).

If you choose to provide additional information (for example, during a support request), you control what you share. Please do not send sensitive personal data unless it is strictly necessary.

How We Use Data

We use information to provide and secure the Services, improve course quality, and communicate with you.

  • Service delivery: create and manage accounts, enroll you in courses, provide access to learning materials, and support learning progress.
  • Security and fraud prevention: protect accounts, detect suspicious activity, rate-limit abuse, and maintain platform integrity.
  • Quality and analytics: understand usage patterns to improve content, performance, and user experience.
  • Communications: send transactional messages (e.g., password resets, receipts) and educational updates. Where required, you can opt out of non-essential messages.
  • Legal and compliance: meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our terms.

We may aggregate or de-identify data for analytics and reporting. Aggregated data is not intended to identify you.

Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, such as:

  • Access: request a copy of personal data we hold about you.
  • Correction: request fixes to inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Deletion: request deletion of personal data, subject to legal exceptions.
  • Portability: request a transferable copy of certain data.
  • Restriction/objection: object to certain processing or request limitations.
  • Consent withdrawal: where processing is based on consent, you can withdraw it.

We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling requests. Some requests may be limited where we must retain data for legal, security, or operational reasons.

Security

We apply industry-standard protections and conduct periodic reviews to protect your information.

  • Technical safeguards: encryption in transit (TLS), secure password storage, and hardened access controls.
  • Operational safeguards: least-privilege access, monitoring, and incident response procedures.
  • Retention controls: we keep personal data only as long as needed for the purposes described, unless a longer period is required by law.

No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure. If you believe your account has been compromised, contact us immediately.
