Privacy & data protection

Consent

Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), ÅGOT, as data controller and/or processor, obtains your explicit, affirmative and informed consent before collecting or processing personal data for a lawful purpose — including study, admission and enrolment, online education and international certification.

What personal data means

Any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person — for example a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that person.

Why we process it

Solely to plan, organise and administer enrolment and participation in ÅGOT distance-learning programmes and international certification — including course attendance, academic requirements, contractual obligations and compliance with applicable law — and to keep issued certificates verifiable.

Other lawful bases

ÅGOT may also process personal data without consent where necessary to perform a contract with you, to comply with a legal obligation, or to protect vital interests.

Who handles it

Only the people responsible for the purposes above. Data may be transferred from the EU to ÅGOT offices in Asia-Pacific, the Americas and the Middle East.

Security

We maintain reasonable physical, technical and administrative safeguards designed to prevent unauthorised access.

Your rights

You may withdraw your consent at any time. To do so, or for any data-protection question, contact our Data Protection Officer at info@agot-nordic.com.
