The personal data we collect depends on how you interact with us. We typically process the following categories:

• Contact details – such as your name, email address, phone number and company name when you fill out a form or contact us directly.
• Professional information – such as your role, department, industry and approximate team size, when you choose to share this with us in a form or email.
• Communication data – content of messages you send us, notes we take during calls and follow-up information related to your enquiry or program.

• Program participation data – information related to your participation in our academy or workshops, such as attendance, feedback and topics of interest.

We do not intentionally collect sensitive categories of personal data (e.g. health information) through this website and we do not ask you to send detailed financial statements containing personal data. If you choose to share such information with us, you do so at your own initiative.

3. Legal bases for processing (GDPR)

As Apollos-perspective Finance Academy is based in the European Union, we process personal data in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Depending on the situation, we rely on the following legal bases:

• Performance of a contract – when we communicate with you to deliver a program or workshop, or to take steps at your request before entering into an agreement.
• Legitimate interests – when we analyse how our website is used, improve our services or maintain security. We carefully balance our interests against your privacy rights.
• Consent – when required by law, for example for certain types of cookies or marketing communication. You can withdraw your consent at any time.
• Legal obligations – when we need to retain certain records for tax, accounting or regulatory reasons.

4. How we use your personal data

We use personal data only for specific, legitimate purposes, including:

• To reply to your messages and enquiries received via forms, email or phone.
• To plan, deliver and improve our financial analysis learning programs, workshops and related services.
• To send administrative information, such as confirmations, changes to schedules or updates to this Privacy Policy.
• To analyse website usage, understand which content is relevant and maintain security and performance.
• To comply with legal obligations and respond to legitimate requests from public authorities, where applicable.

We do not use automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects for you in the context of this website.

5. When we share your data

We do not sell, rent or trade your personal data. We may share data with:

• Service providers – trusted third parties that help us run our website, manage communication or provide IT infrastructure (for example, email or hosting providers). They process data only on our instructions and under appropriate agreements.
• Professional advisors – such as lawyers or accountants, when necessary for legal, financial or compliance reasons.
• Public authorities – if required by law or to protect our rights, property or safety, or the rights, property or safety of others.

Some of these recipients may be located outside the European Economic Area (EEA). In such cases, we strive to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent mechanisms recognised by the GDPR.

6. How long we keep your data

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, or as required by law. This typically means:

• Contact and communication data related to enquiries: usually up to 24 months after the last meaningful interaction, unless a longer period is needed for legal reasons.
• Data related to contracts, invoices and program delivery: kept for the period required by applicable tax and accounting laws in Italy.
• Technical logs and website usage data: kept for a shorter period, generally not longer than is necessary for security and analytics purposes.

When data is no longer needed, we aim to delete it securely or anonymise it so that it can no longer be linked to you.
