We, Oxford Numerology University®, as the data controller, provide you with our Privacy Policy through our websites, OxfordNumerology.University, OxfordNumerology.UK, OxfordNumerology.ES, OxfordNumerology.FR, and Numerology.University, to explain how we process and protect personal data.
This Privacy Policy applies to the processing of personal data of:
• Our contractual partners, such as suppliers, vendors, and course participants (“Business Partners”);
• Visitors and users of our websites and microsites (“Users”);
• Individuals interested in subscribing to the newsletters of our websites (“Subscribers”);
• Individuals who create editorial content for our websites (“Contributor-Commentators”).
We collect and process your personal data when you interact with us to subscribe to the websites’ newsletters, to comment as a commentator or contributor, or when you report an issue related to our website. In these situations, by subscribing to the newsletter or commenting on the website, you agree to provide your first name, last name, and email address. In order to be recognized as a contributor/commentator who signs texts on our websites, the information you provide may include your first name and last name, email address, phone number, personal description and photograph, age, education, and profession.
In some cases, you may be asked to provide additional information in forms specifically created for contractual partners. The information you provide may include your name, address, email address, and other relevant details.
We will not collect or process sensitive personal data related to you (for example, information about racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs or philosophical convictions, health, sex life, or sexual orientation), except for opinions expressed in the comments section—ideas that you voluntarily provide. In the event that you voluntarily provide us with other personal data (including sensitive personal data) through your interaction with our websites or by corresponding with us via telephone, email, or any other means, of your own free will and not at our request, we will delete such personal data from our systems if we do not consider its processing necessary for a legitimate purpose, unless you have made this data public (for example, in the comments section or in a message forum that is publicly visible), in which case we will delete this data from our websites upon your express request, only if the law so requires or if we do not wish to retain it.
Each time you visit our websites, we automatically collect the following data:
• Technical data, for example, this may include the Internet Protocol (IP) address used to connect your computer to the internet, connection information, browser type and version, time zone setting, types and versions of browser plugins, operating system and platform, device type, and mobile device brand; these data may also be collected and processed on our behalf through third-party cookies.
• Data about your visit to the website, for example, this may include full Uniform Resource Locators (URLs), clickstream data to, through, or from our websites (including date and time), the information or products you have viewed or searched for (including articles read, categories accessed, page response times, download errors, duration of visits on certain pages—including average time spent on certain pages, viewing specific content or videos—average time spent in an app and number of views in such apps, average number of articles viewed on our website, information regarding interactions with pages such as scrolling, clicks, and mouse-over events, the methods used for navigating the page, user behavior data, and any telephone number used for calling or any email address used to contact our website representatives).
When you visit and register on our websites, it is possible that we obtain certain personal data about you from a social media provider—a third party—if you voluntarily opt to register through that third-party social media platform.
We may process your personal data if it is necessary to perform a contract we have entered into with you; when we must comply with a legal obligation (such as the laws applicable to employment, accounting, auditing, and equal opportunity monitoring); when it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party); when it is necessary for your interests (for example, to detect and prevent fraud or to ensure IT and network security), except where your fundamental rights prevail over these interests; if it is necessary to protect your vital interests (or the vital interests of others); and/or when it is necessary for the public interest or for official purposes.
We process your personal data for various technical, administrative, and operational purposes, such as ensuring that content is presented in the most effective manner for you and your computer; improving the technical quality and functionality of our websites; managing our website; supporting internal operations—including for troubleshooting, data analysis, testing, research, and statistics; for advertising and marketing, including for specific marketing purposes so that we can offer content, including personalized content, that may be of greater interest to you; as well as part of our efforts to keep our websites secure.
In cases where we request personal data to comply with legal or contractual obligations, providing such personal data is mandatory. This means that if such personal data is not provided, we will not be able to manage contractual relationships or comply with the obligations imposed on us.
Additionally, we may process your personal data, such as identification details, contact information, and residential address, for the possible exercise of our rights or claims against you in the future. This processing is based on our legitimate interest, as it is necessary to exercise our rights in the event of any potential disputes.
Your personal data may also be disclosed to third parties, including:
(i) service providers who offer administrative, professional, and technical support to the company for IT support, security, and commercial resources;
(ii) business partners, suppliers, and subcontractors for the execution of all contracts we enter into with you.
(iii) Advertising agencies and advertising networks that request your information to select and deliver relevant advertisements to you. We do not disclose identifiable personal information to advertising agencies; instead, we provide them with aggregated information about our users (for example, we may inform that 1,000 men and/or women aged between 35-44 clicked on an advertisement on a specific day or during a specific time interval). We may also use such aggregated information to help advertising agencies reach their target audience. We may use the personal data we have collected from you to offer advertising agencies the opportunity to display their advertising messages to the intended audience;
(iv) Providers of analytics services and search engines that assist us in improving and optimizing our websites;
(v) Providers of analytics and research services (e.g., Google Analytics) that help us analyze in an aggregated manner data regarding the number of visitors over a period of time, their age, and their interest categories. This data does not contain information about identifiable persons.
We may also disclose aggregated personal data to external consultants (e.g., lawyers, auditors), if necessary.
We might share aggregated personal data with other third parties in the context of certain types of transactions, including those involving a change of control over the organization in terms of ownership/decision-makers or through the substantial sale of all its assets or other types of organizational restructuring.
Service providers will have the right to use subcontractors in delivering services to us, provided that the subcontractor complies with the same data protection obligations as the primary service providers.
The personal data we collect are obtained by third parties through cookies and will generally serve traffic from a data center that is closest to where the traffic originates. This means that such information, including advertising traffic, may be managed by servers located either within or outside the EU and may be transferred outside the EU. Consequently, the laws and regulations that protect your personal data in the country to which your information is transferred may differ (or may offer reduced protection) compared to those in the country where you operate.
We do not intend to transfer your personal data outside the EU unless adequate safeguards are in place, including:
(i) an adequacy decision issued by the European Commission regarding the destination country or countries;
(ii) a “privacy shield” certification;
(iii) appropriate binding corporate rules;
(iv) an approved code of conduct, together with binding and enforceable commitments by the data controller or the authorized representative from the non-EU country;
(v) an approved certification mechanism, together with the binding and enforceable commitment by the data controller or the authorized representative in a non-EU country to implement the appropriate safeguards; or
(vi) standard EU contractual clauses.
You may request that we confirm whether or not your personal data is being processed by us. In certain circumstances, you have the right to request that we delete your personal data. You also have the right to object to certain processing of your personal data (for example, the use of processing for direct marketing purposes or certain decisions made solely through automated processing, including profiling). If we have requested your consent for the processing of your personal data, you have the right to withdraw that consent without any negative consequences to you. If we process your personal data on the basis of our legitimate interest, you also have the right to object to such processing. Furthermore, you have the right to restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances. Please note that the rights described above may be limited in certain situations and are subject to the applicable data protection laws and regulations; for example, your right to object to the processing of your personal data may be limited if we can demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate reasons to process your personal data that override your interests. You will be required to verify your identity and provide us with additional details to help us respond to your request. We will not charge a fee for responding to your request unless permitted by law, and if a fee is charged, it will be reasonable and proportional to your request. If you wish to exercise these rights, please contact us. You also have the right to file a complaint with the data protection supervisory authority. You may file a complaint in the Member State where you reside, where you work, or where the alleged data protection violation occurred.
We intend to retain your personal data only for as long as necessary, or for the maximum period permitted by law. Please note that we may process any of your personal data that has become anonymized without notifying you in advance.
We store your data on our own servers and on servers hosted by third parties (including third-party cloud-based services). We use appropriate technical and organizational measures designed to protect your personal data and prevent unauthorized access. We have entered into contractual agreements with third parties that provide hosting services, and these agreements include obligations regarding the organizational and technical security of personal data. You are responsible for keeping confidential all authentication credentials (for example, passwords) that you use to access parts of our websites. Data transmission over the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted on our website; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we receive your data, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorized access.
