Privacy Policy

Effective Date: February 19, 2026

Welcome to Courses at AdamBurton.NET. We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you use our online learning platform (the "LMS"), how we use it, and your rights regarding your data.

1. Who We Are

Our website address is: http://courses.adamburton.net.

2. Information We Collect

When you register for an account and participate in our courses, we collect the following personal information:

Account Details: Your first name, last name, email address, and an encrypted password.
Course Progress: Data regarding which courses you are enrolled in, which lessons you have completed, and the date/time of completion.
Submitted Content: The answers, reflections, and notes you type into the lesson forms.
Usage Data: We track the date and time of your last login or activity on the platform to help us understand student engagement.
Communication: Any messages sent to the instructor via the lesson or support contact forms.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect strictly to provide and improve your educational experience:

To create and manage your secure user account.
To save your lesson progress so you can resume where you left off.
To generate your personalized Certificate of Completion.
To send you administrative emails (e.g., password resets, enrollment confirmations).
To respond to your direct questions and support requests.

4. Privacy of Your Lesson Notes & Reflections

The personal reflections, answers, and notes you type into the lesson forms are stored securely in our website's database solely for your own use and progress tracking. We have intentionally designed this platform so that your responses are not visible to instructors or administrators on the backend dashboard. We do not monitor, read, or review your personal lesson notes. While this data resides on our server and is technically accessible by the database administrator, we commit to never accessing, reading, or sharing your private entries unless you specifically request us to do so for technical support, or if we are legally required to do so.

5. Third-Party Services

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. However, we do use trusted third-party services to run our platform:

Video Hosting: We use Bunny.net to host our course videos. When you watch a video, Bunny.net may collect basic, anonymized analytics (such as your IP address or device type) to deliver the video stream efficiently and remember your playback position.
Website Hosting & Email: Our site relies on standard web hosting and email dispatchers to function and send you necessary notifications.

6. Cookies and Tracking

Our platform uses standard WordPress cookies to keep you logged in securely as you navigate between lessons. We do not use third-party tracking cookies (like Facebook Pixel or Google Analytics) to track your behavior across the internet for advertising purposes.

7. Data Security

We use standard WordPress security measures to protect your data. Your password is cryptographically hashed, meaning we cannot see your actual password. However, no transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Your Rights and Data Deletion

You have the right to request access to the personal data we hold about you. You may also request that we correct or permanently delete your account and all associated course progress, notes, and reflections.

To request a data export or account deletion, please contact us at: [email protected].

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any significant changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Effective Date" at the top.
