In certain situations, your account on Excelia EduServices might be created and managed by an administrator, who could be your employer or an authorized training partner of Excelia EduServices LLP (an "ATP"). In these instances, the administrator is our "Customer" and may provide your information, including personal details, to us. When we process your personal data in this context, we do so under the guidance of our Customers and do not have a direct relationship with you, the "End-User."
Your use of the Excelia EduServices platform may also be governed by your organization's policies, if any.
Our Customers are responsible for ensuring they have the authority to act on your behalf and to consent to the collection and use of your Personal Information as described in this Privacy Policy.

Sharing of Data to Third-Party
If your subscription to our services was provided by your employer or an Excelia EduServices authorized training partner, we will share your information, including personal details, with them.
We may also disclose your personal information to other third parties if we have your explicit consent to do so. However, we will not share your data with third parties for SMS marketing purposes.
Your personal information may be transferred to our affiliated companies and subcontractors who assist us in delivering our Services. Any further transfers to subsequent third parties are governed by our service agreements with our data processors.
We reserve the right to disclose your personal data if required by applicable law, in response to legitimate requests from public authorities (including for national security or law enforcement purposes), or when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights or to comply with a legal process such as a judicial proceeding, court order, or other legal action served on us.
In the event that Excelia EduServices undergoes a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or the sale of all or a portion of our assets, your user account and personal data will likely be transferred as part of the assets. You will be informed of any such change in ownership or control via email and a prominent notice on our Websites. We may also share your personal information with other third parties if you have given us your prior consent.
Your Rights Regarding Your Personal Information: Access, Correction, Removal, and Export
Excelia EduServices recognizes your right to access, edit, and delete your personal information at any time. Upon your request, we will provide you with reasonable access to the personal information we have collected about you. You will have the ability to correct, update, modify, or delete this information as described below:
-
For Independent Account Holders: If you have directly signed up with Excelia EduServices, you can access, update, or export your Personal Information within your online Excelia EduServices account at any time. Simply log in to your account and navigate to your profile settings, or you can contact us directly for assistance.
-
For Enterprise-Provided Accounts: If you are using an account provided by your employer or an Excelia EduServices Authorized Training Partner, please refer to the "Notice to End Users" section of this Privacy Policy for information on how to manage your personal data.
​
If you request access to your personal information and find it to be inaccurate, we are committed to providing you with ways to promptly update or delete it. The only exceptions are when we need to retain that information for legitimate business operations or to comply with legal obligations. Our goal is to manage our services in a way that prevents accidental or malicious data loss. Therefore, even after you delete information from our services, there might be a short delay before residual copies are completely removed from our active servers and backup systems.
​
In some situations, there might be practical limitations to the amount of information we can provide. For instance, we may limit an individual's access to personal information if the effort or cost of providing access is significantly disproportionate to the potential risks to that individual's privacy, or if doing so would infringe upon the rights of others.
​
Even after you update your Personal Information in our systems, we may retain and store older versions of that information within our databases, access logs, and other records. This is necessary to comply with our routine data audits and other internal processes.
Cookies and Similar Tracking Technologies
Excelia EduServices and our third-party partners, including our advertising and analytics providers (listed here), utilize cookies and other tracking technologies like web beacons, device identifiers, and pixels. These technologies help us provide essential functionality and recognize you across our various Services and devices. The types of cookies we use include:
-
Essential Cookies: These cookies are crucial for the basic operation of our Site and Services. They enable features like keeping you logged in and remembering relevant information when you return.
-
Insight Cookies: These cookies are used to track your activities within our Services, which helps us understand how you use them and improve your overall experience.
-
Marketing Cookies: These cookies are used to deliver personalized advertisements tailored to your interests based on your browsing behavior and similar online activities on our Websites.
You have the option to manage cookies through your browser settings. You can configure your browser to alert you each time a cookie is being sent or to disable all cookies. As each browser is different, please consult your browser's Help Menu for instructions on how to adjust your cookie settings. Please note that if you disable cookies, 1 some features that enhance your site experience may not function correctly.
Marketing & Advertising
We work with third-party advertising partners to display our ads on other websites. These partners may use technologies like cookies to collect information about your online activity on our Website and other sites. This allows them to show you advertisements that are tailored to your browsing history and interests. Please be aware that opting out of targeted advertising does not mean you will no longer see ads; you will still receive general, non-personalized advertisements.
Website Analytics and Tracking
Excelia EduServices employs third-party analytics software to understand how our Services are used. Information about your usage of our Services is transmitted to our analytics provider. This data is then used to assess user interaction with our platform and to generate statistical reports on user activity for our internal use. We also utilize these analytics tools to track and collect your Personally Identifiable Information (PII), which helps us to maintain, improve, and expand the functionality of our Services and to personalize your experience. Aggregated data and analyses may be shared publicly at the discretion of Excelia EduServices.
We and our third-party advertising partners use technologies such as web beacons to analyze trends, administer our website, track user navigation within the site, and gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. We may receive reports based on the use of these technologies by these companies 1 on both an individual and aggregated basis
Do Not Track
Currently, many web browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature. 1 This sends a signal (a DNT header) to websites you visit, indicating your preference not to be tracked. 2 However, there isn't yet a universally agreed-upon standard for how websites should respond to these DNT signals. Because of this lack of a common industry standard among technology companies, regulatory bodies, and industry groups regarding DNT, including a consistent way to understand a user's intent, Excelia EduServices does not currently commit to recognizing or responding to browser DNT signals on our Websites.
Links to External Websites
Our Websites may contain links to third-party websites that are not owned or managed by Excelia EduServices. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of these external websites or third parties. We encourage you to exercise caution when leaving our Websites and to carefully review the privacy policies of any website that collects your personal information.
Website Communications
We may use your email address to send you our newsletters and marketing materials. If you no longer wish to receive these types of communications, you can unsubscribe by following the opt-out instructions provided in the emails.
We will also send you service-related announcements when necessary. For example, if our Services are temporarily unavailable for maintenance, we may notify you via email. Generally, you cannot opt out of these non-promotional communications. If you do not wish to receive them, you may need to delete your account.
Integrating with Social Media Platforms for Login and Functionality
Our Websites may include social media features, such as the Facebook "Like" button, "Share This" button, or interactive mini-programs. With your consent, these features may collect your IP address and information about the pages you visit on our Websites. They may also use cookies to ensure they function correctly. These social media features and widgets might be hosted by a third party or directly on our Websites. Your interactions with these features are subject to the privacy policy of the company providing them.

While we are committed to protecting your personal data, please understand that no internet transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of data transmitted to our Websites or via our Services.
