Legal Basis for Processing Your Information

We have several legal bases for collecting and using the personal information described above. They are:
  • Where the use of your personal information is necessary to perform our obligations under any contract with you (including providing you with access to the Website for which you have registered and/or made a purchase).
  • Where we have your explicit consent to collect, store, and use your information for a particular purpose, including where you consent to participate in research with us, receiving marketing and promotional communications for products on our Website or third party websites.
  • Where use of your personal information is necessary for purposes of pursuing Towards AGI legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of a third party such as our Course providers, as long as these interests are not outweighed by your own interests, fundamental rights, or freedoms.  For example, we will need to ensure that in these cases you would reasonably expect your personal information to be used, and that it would have a minimal impact on your personal privacy. Such legitimate interests are:
  • To conduct our day-to-day business, including the operation of a fully functioning website offering online educational products.
  • To build relationships with universities and other institutions in the online education sector.
  • To ensure we are delivering a high level of customer service through ongoing customer communications and responses to customer queries.
  • To invest, test and roll out new products which we believe will benefit our customers or prospective customers.
  • Track and ensure completion of contractual obligations.
  • Carry out market research and business development.
  • To operate our website.
  • To consider your employment application, if you apply for a role at our company.
  • In some cases, we may have a legal obligation to collect personal information from you.
  • Gen Matrix framework is proprietary IP hence confidential information will not be shared.
  • After Gen Matrix is purchased, it is non-refundable.

Data Retention

  1. We retain personal information we collect from you where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to provide you with a service you have requested or to comply with applicable legal, tax or accounting requirements).
  2. When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymise it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
  3. Where we have your personal data as a result of you participating in a research session with us, we will retain your personal data for no more than two years after conducting the session the personal data pertains to.
