1. About this notice
This notice describes personal information handled through Hovia Education Group’s website, enquiries, applications and online learning services. Contact info@hoviaedu.com if you need clarification about how information is used for a particular programme or service.
2. Information you provide
Enquiry and application forms ask for information such as your name, email address, phone number, town, preferred programme and study details. Some applications also request qualifications, results, a date of birth or parent or guardian details. The fields shown depend on the form and your choices. Provide only information needed for your enquiry or application.
3. Uploaded documents
Some application forms allow you to upload supporting documents, qualifications, results or a CV. Files submitted through those forms are included in the email notification sent to Hovia. Avoid including unrelated information or another person’s documents without their permission. Do not send passwords or banking login details.
4. Why information is used
Information supplied through forms is used to respond to enquiries, discuss applications, check relevant programme information and communicate about requested services. Account and learning information supports access to online courses and related administration. Order details support payment enquiries and reconciliation.
5. Accounts and course activity
When you create an account, the website stores account and profile information. Online learning features may record enrolments, progress, assessment results and related course activity. Website administrators can access information needed to manage the service. Keep your password private and use the account tools to update available profile details.
6. Orders and payments
Online orders can contain contact, billing, programme and transaction information. If you pay by bank transfer, Hovia may need a payment reference or proof of payment to identify the transaction. Never provide your banking password, PIN or one-time code. A bank or external payment service handles information under its own terms and privacy notice.
7. Cookies and technical information
The website uses cookies for features such as login sessions, shopping carts and user preferences. Website hosting and security services may also process technical information, including IP addresses, browser details and request records. You can manage cookies through your browser settings; blocking necessary cookies may prevent some features from working.
8. External services and embedded content
Website hosting, email delivery and other service providers may process information as part of operating the website. Embedded tools, including the Google map on the Contact Us page, can send technical information to the external provider when loaded. If you choose a social sign-in option or follow an external link, review that provider’s privacy notice before proceeding.
9. Email and communication
Website form notifications are sent to info@hoviaedu.com. Hovia uses the contact details provided to respond to the enquiry or application. If you separately choose to receive marketing updates, use the unsubscribe option in those messages or contact Hovia to ask for help.
10. Keeping and protecting information
Information may be held in the website, email systems and records used to administer applications, learning and payments. Retention needs vary by record type and purpose. Ask Hovia about the retention period for a specific record. No online service can guarantee complete security, so limit submissions to information that is necessary.
11. Privacy requests and learner information
Contact Hovia to ask about your information, request a correction or discuss an access or deletion request. The team may need to verify your identity before responding. Some records may need to be retained for administration, security or applicable legal requirements. For a learner under 18, a parent or guardian should help with enquiries about the learner’s information.
