What are personal data?
Personal data is all data that can be traced back to you as an individual. Just think of your name, telephone number, address, zip code and email address. This also includes data such as your IP address, order history and surfing behaviour.
Who is responsible for the processing of my personal data?

When does this privacy policy apply?
This privacy policy applies to all personal data that Sophistès processes from anyone who has (or had) contact with our organization, such as our customers and business contacts.
What data do we process from you, for what do we use it and for how long are they stored?
When you order a course, we need certain information from you to provide your summary and to inform you about the practical matters of the course. We also save your order history and the evaluation form that you have filled in (anonymously) after following a course. For this we collect your name, address and zip code, email address, phone number, university and study. By law, we must keep this data for 7 years. These will be deleted after this period.
Where do we store your data?
Your data is stored by us within the European Economic Area (‘EEA’). There is a possibility that certain data will be transferred to or stored at a destination outside the EEA and it could be that one of our external service providers is located outside of the EEA. If this is the case, we will make sure that it is done in a safe and lawful manner.
How is your data secured?
The data centers where your data is stored are ISO 27001 certified, which means that adequate and proportional security measures are taken to secure your data. Furthermore, our internal systems are designed in such a way that not every employee can access your data.
