What information do we collect?

Personal data you give to us

We collect data you give to us. For example:

  • Personal details (name, date of birth, email, address, telephone, education details etc.) when you sign up to an apprenticeship agreement
  • Data known as sensitive personal data (ethnicity, additional learning needs)
  • Information created by your involvement with Wizely

Your activities and involvement with Wizely create additional personal data, for example, information about your education progress and qualifications.

We may analyse your personal data to build a profile which helps us decide which of our communications you might be interested in.

Information from other organisations

We sometimes receive personal data from other organisations, for example, where they have passed us information about people who are interested in our apprenticeships and training courses.

Sensitive personal data

We may collect or store data known as sensitive personal data (such as information relating to additional learning needs or ethnicity). We will do this where we have been asked to do so by official government agencies or where the information is needed for the assessment of additional educational support needs
If we do this, we’ll take extra care to ensure your personal data is protected.

Accidents or incidents

If an accident or incident occurs in one of our training centres or involving one of our employees, then we’ll keep a record of this (which may include personal data and sensitive personal data).

How do we use personal information?

We only ever use your personal data with your consent, or where it is necessary:

  • To enter into, or perform, a contract with you
  • To comply with a legal duty
  • To protect your vital interests; this means, for example, keeping you safe from harm
  • For our own (or a third party's) lawful interests, provided your rights are not affected

We will only use your information for the purpose or purposes it was collected for

Administration

We use personal data for administrative purposes. This includes:

  • Maintaining databases of our learners and their educational progress
  • Performing our obligations under apprenticeship or training contracts
  • Helping us respect your choices and preferences (e.g., if you ask not to receive marketing material, we’ll keep a record of this).
Research and Analysis

We may carry out research and analysis on the data we hold to understand behaviour and responses and identify patterns and trends.

We evaluate, categorise and profile personal data to tailor services and communications we send out (including targeted advertising) and to prevent unwanted material from being sent to you.

Anonymised data

We may combine sets of personal data and change the personal data so that it can no longer be linked to any particular person. This information may then be used to monitor Wizely’s business performance or to identify trends or patterns within our existing learner database.

Disclosing and sharing data

We will never sell your personal data. If you have opted-in to marketing, we may contact you with information about further opportunities in education.

We may share personal data with other organisations who provide us with services. For example, we may use an IT supplier to process personal data. However, these activities will be carried out under contracts which have strict requirements to keep your information confidential and secure.

We will share personal data with the following organisations who provide services to us:
