Privacy Policy

The policy explains what information is held about individual people by the Kaaf Training Center system, how it is gathered and how it is used. Details of the data held or logged are given in the appropriate section below. This information is used to help support Kaaf Training Center users, for system administration and bug tracking, and for producing usage statistics for management and planning purposes.

Access to Kaaf Training Center logs is restricted to authorized staff at Kaaf Training Center with the exception of course-specific tracking data which is also made accessible to course maintainers where an appropriate course-specific privacy policy is in place. These logs are currently held for 6 years after course completion, but Kaaf Training Center does not guarantee to retain the information. Logs are used to create summary statistics which may be made publicly available. Summary statistics do not include personal data.

Personal information is not passed to any third party except where required by law.

Kaaf Training Center data is backed up at a Kaaf IT Facility. The backups are held for the purpose of reinstatement of the data, e.g. in the event of failure of a system component.
