Cookies
Cookies are small files stored in your browser. Our site uses them to keep you logged in, remember your preferences, process checkout, and understand site traffic.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you do, some parts of the site, like logging in or accessing courses, may not work properly.
Sharing, retention, and security
We share your information only with the service providers listed above, when required by law, or to protect our rights and the safety of our students. If the school is ever sold or transferred, student information may transfer with it under this same policy.
We keep your information for as long as your account is active and as long as needed for legal, tax, and business records. You can ask us to delete your account at any time.
We use reasonable safeguards, and our providers use industry-standard security such as encryption. No online system is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

- Correct information that is wrong or incomplete
- Delete your information
- Receive a copy of your information in a portable format
