These providers are bound by strict confidentiality agreements.
Legal Requirements: We may disclose information when required by Australian law, court orders, or government requests. We'll notify you of such requests unless legally prohibited from doing so.

5. Data Security and Protection
Protecting your information is fundamental to everything we do at morivendralis. We've implemented comprehensive security measures that go beyond basic requirements to ensure your personal and educational data remains safe.
Our technical security includes encrypted data transmission using TLS 1.3 protocols, secure server hosting in Australian data centers, regular security audits by independent firms, and multi-factor authentication for staff accessing student data. All payment processing occurs through PCI DSS compliant systems that never store your complete payment details on our servers.
Physical security measures protect our offices and servers, including restricted access to data storage areas, monitored security systems, and secure disposal of any physical documents containing personal information.

You can request early deletion of certain information types, though we may need to retain some data for legal compliance. When retention periods expire, we securely delete information using industry-standard data destruction methods.
7. International Data Transfers
While morivendralis primarily operates within Australia, some aspects of our educational platform involve international data transfers that we manage carefully to protect your privacy.
Our learning management system and video hosting services may store data on servers located in countries with strong privacy protections, including the United States and European Union. These transfers occur only with providers who meet Australian privacy standards and provide adequate protection for your information.
When we work with international guest lecturers or industry partners for educational purposes, we ensure they understand their obligations regarding Australian privacy law and student data protection.
For any international transfers, we use standard contractual clauses approved by Australian privacy authorities and conduct due diligence on the privacy practices of international partners. You can request specific information about where your data is stored and processed.

Industry software platforms, tutorial websites, asset libraries, and professional networking sites linked from our courses have their own privacy policies and data practices. We recommend reviewing their policies before sharing personal information or creating accounts with these services.
Some course materials may require you to use third-party software or online tools. When possible, we provide guidance on privacy settings and data protection practices for these tools, but you're responsible for managing your privacy on external platforms.
