We collect information that helps us provide better database programming
education and services. Here's what we gather and why:
Contact Information
We collect your name, email address, phone number, and location
when you register for courses or contact us for consultations. This
helps us communicate effectively about your learning progress and
provide personalized support.
Educational Data
When you participate in our database programming courses, we track
your progress, assignment submissions, and quiz results. This
information helps us improve our curriculum and provide meaningful
feedback on your development.
Technical Information
We automatically collect IP addresses, browser types, and device
information to ensure our platform works properly across different
systems and to identify technical issues that might affect your
learning experience.

We keep records of emails, support tickets, and consultation notes
to maintain continuity in our educational support and ensure we
address your questions and concerns effectively over time.
How We Use Your Information
Your information serves specific purposes related to delivering quality
database programming education and maintaining our services effectively.
Educational Services: We use your data to enroll you in
courses, track your progress through database programming modules, provide
personalized feedback, and issue certificates upon successful completion.
Your learning data helps us understand which concepts need additional
explanation and which teaching methods work best.
Communication: We send course updates, scheduling
information, technical announcements, and educational resources that
support your database programming journey. We may also reach out for
feedback about your learning experience or to inform you about new courses
that match your interests.
Platform Improvement: We analyze usage patterns and
student feedback to enhance our curriculum, fix technical issues, and
develop new educational content that addresses real industry needs in
database programming.
Data Protection and Security
We implement multiple layers of security to protect your personal
information and educational records. Our approach combines technical
measures with strict access controls.
SSL Encryption Secure Servers Access Controls Regular Backups Firewall Protection Data Monitoring
Our servers are located in secure facilities with physical access
restrictions. We encrypt sensitive data both in transit and at rest. Only
authorized team members who need access to perform their educational or
technical support duties can view your information.
We regularly update our security measures and conduct vulnerability
assessments to stay ahead of potential threats. However, no online system
is completely secure, so we recommend you also protect your account with
strong passwords and avoid sharing login credentials.

Under Turkish data protection laws and international privacy standards, you
have specific rights regarding your personal information. We respect these
rights and provide clear procedures for exercising them.

including your educational records, progress reports, and

Request deletion of your personal information, subject to legal
and legitimate business requirements. We may need to retain
certain educational records for certification purposes or legal

only process your data for storage or with your explicit
consent.

we may share relevant educational information to ensure continuity in your
learning experience. These partners are bound by confidentiality
agreements.
