Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how CD-Soft Educational Resources ABN 24 619 836 654 (“CD-Soft”, “we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, stores, and discloses personal information through the CD-Soft MY LESSONS Platform (“the Platform”). This policy complies with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles.

We collect personal information necessary to provide the Platform, including your name, email address, phone number, school name, state or territory, and teaching preferences. We do not collect sensitive information such as health data, financial details, or government identifiers. Passwords are never stored by CD-Soft.

We use your information solely to provide and improve the Platform, including personalising content to your teaching context, saving your preferences between sessions, and communicating platform updates. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

We take reasonable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, disclosure, or misuse. Your account data is accessible only to you and authorised CD-Soft staff for support purposes.

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active. Upon account deletion, your personal data will be permanently removed from our systems within 30 days. We do not retain personal information beyond this period except where required to comply with applicable Australian law or to protect against fraudulent activity.

A cookie is a small file which asks permission to be placed on your computer's hard drive. Once you agree, the file is added and the cookie helps analyse web traffic or lets you know when you visit a particular site. Cookies allow web applications to respond to you as an individual. The web application can tailor its operations to your needs, likes and dislikes by gathering and remembering information about your preferences.

We use traffic log cookies to identify which pages are being used. This helps us analyse data about webpage traffic and improve our website in order to tailor it to customer needs. We only use this information for statistical analysis purposes and then the data is removed from the system. Overall, cookies help us provide you with a better website by enabling us to monitor which pages you find useful and which you do not. A cookie in no way gives us access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share with us. You can choose to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. This may prevent you from taking full advantage of the website.

We collect anonymised, aggregated usage data, such as which features are used and which content is most viewed, to improve the Platform. This data cannot identify individual users and is retained indefinitely as it does not constitute personal information under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

Our website contains links to other websites of interest. However, once you have used these links to leave our site, you should note that we do not have any control over that other website. Therefore, we cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of any information which you provide whilst visiting such sites and such sites are not governed by this privacy statement. You should exercise caution and look at the privacy statement applicable to the website in question.

Under the Australian Privacy Principles, you have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of your personal information. You may also opt out of non-essential communications at any time. To exercise these rights or to lodge a privacy concern, contact us using the details below.

We may update this policy from time to time. Registered users will be notified of material changes by email. Continued use of the Platform after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
