Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Reader Desk handles personal data when you use our website and course services. It applies to visitors, registered users, and others who interact with our content, forms, and support channels.
This summary highlights how to navigate the information provided in this policy.
Your Rights
Subject to legal limits, you may request access to your personal data, correction of inaccurate information, and deletion of data that is no longer needed. You may also object to certain processing or ask us to restrict use in appropriate cases. Where consent is the basis for processing, you may withdraw it for future processing.
How to Make a Request
To make a privacy request, provide enough detail for us to identify the relevant records and confirm your identity. We will review the request and respond within a reasonable period under applicable law. If we cannot fully comply, we will explain the reason where permitted.
Data Retention
Retention periods vary by data type and purpose. Account and course records are kept while the account remains active and for a reasonable period afterward. Technical logs and analytics data are retained for shorter periods unless needed for security, troubleshooting, or legal compliance. When data is no longer required, we delete it, anonymize it, or archive it where permitted.
Policy Changes
If we make material changes, we will post the updated version on this page and may provide additional notice where appropriate. The revised policy becomes effective when posted unless a later date is stated.
