Our commitment to your privacy

Britannia Elite Ltd is committed to protecting the privacy, security and rights of individuals who interact with our organisation. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store and protect personal data in accordance with applicable data protection laws and regulatory expectations. It applies to all personal data collected through this website and related communications.

The law that applies

This Privacy Policy is governed by the laws of the United Kingdom, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

Because Britannia Elite delivers training in Uganda, where we process the personal data of individuals in Uganda we also act consistently with Uganda’s Data Protection and Privacy Act 2019 and the Data Protection and Privacy Regulations 2021. Both frameworks share the same core principles, and we apply consistent data protection standards regardless of where the individual is located.

The data we process

We may collect and process the following categories of personal data:

• Contact information (name, email address, telephone number)
• Enquiry and correspondence information
• Training interest forms and registration details
• Identification information where required for vetting or verification
• Emergency contact details for residential or specialist training
• Information necessary to assess eligibility for training or academic support
• Technical information such as IP address, browser type and usage data (via cookies)

We do not intentionally collect special category data unless it is necessary for lawful training, safeguarding or compliance purposes, and where a valid lawful condition applies.

Why we process it

• Responding to enquiries and requests for information
• Assessing suitability and eligibility for training programmes
• Administering training, accreditation and academic support
• Conducting identity verification and security vetting where required
• Communicating operational, scheduling or regulatory information
• Meeting legal, regulatory, safeguarding and insurance obligations
• Maintaining accurate internal records and audit trails

We do not sell personal data, and we do not use personal data for unsolicited marketing.

Our lawful bases for processing

• Contractual necessity — where processing is required to deliver training or services
• Legitimate interests — including operational administration, safeguarding and security
• Legal obligation — where required by law or regulation
• Consent — where explicitly obtained and recorded

Who we may share data with

Personal data may be shared only where necessary and proportionate, including with:

• Accredited awarding or certification bodies
• Professional instructors or assessors involved in delivery
• Regulatory or statutory authorities where legally required
• IT and hosting providers supporting secure operations

All third parties are required to handle personal data lawfully and securely. We do not permit third-party use of data for their own marketing purposes.

Moving data across borders

Britannia Elite operates across the United Kingdom and Uganda, so personal data may be transferred or accessed in either jurisdiction. Where personal data moves between the two, appropriate safeguards are applied so that protection remains consistent with UK GDPR principles and with Uganda’s Data Protection and Privacy Act 2019, including, where relevant, the individual’s consent.

How we protect personal data

• Controlled access and authentication measures
• Secure data storage and transfer procedures
• Encryption where appropriate
• Operational security (OPSEC) restrictions for sensitive information
• Regular review of access permissions

How long we keep it

Personal data is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including legal, regulatory, training and insurance requirements. Data is securely deleted or anonymised when no longer required.

The rights you hold

Subject to applicable law, individuals have the right to:

• Access personal data held about them
• Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data
• Request erasure of personal data where legally permissible
• Restrict or object to processing
• Request data portability
• Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
