Last update: 26 February 2018

DuoTesting s.r.o. (LLC) trading under the brand name MyDuoTraining – Your Learning Organisation, hereafter referred to as ‘MyDuoTraining’, controls personal data within the scope of the services that we provide, supported by its marketing activities.

In our responsibility of Data Controller, MyDuoTraining ensures that data subjects’ rights according to the GDPR are observed.

What this privacy policy covers
This policy covers how MyDuoTraining treats personal data that we collect, receive and control, including data related to past use of MyDuoTraining products and services.

Personal data is data about you that is personally identifiable like your first and last name, address, email address, or phone number, and that is not otherwise publicly available.

Lawful base

MyDuoTraining uses the lawful base of CONSENT for the controlling of personal data.

How we collect personal data
We collect and control personal data in several different ways. For example, we might ask for your personal details when you sign up to one of our online products or services. Or we register your contact information when you write to or call us to make a purchase or ask for a service. In addition, when you ask to be included in an email mailing list to be made aware of a new MyDuoTraining product or service, sign up for MyDuoTraining Internet service packages, we collect and store the data you provide with our data processors DigitalOcean, WP Engine and SendGrid  (see paragraph ‘Data Processors’).

To make our web services easier to use and save time; some areas of the MyDuoTraining website may allow you to create a "MyDuoTraining ID" using your personal data. Next time you order something from MyDuoTraining or register a new product (or for organisations: register a new user), you can simply enter your email address and password—the system will automatically locate the remaining data required.

On our knowledge website YourLearningOrganisation we control an individual’s email address when an individual subscribes him/herself to our blog feed. We also control First Name, Last Name and email addresses of individuals for marketing purposes. Sources for this data are social media marketing channels such as Linkedin, Twitter and Facebook.

When you browse MyDuoTraining's website, you are able to do so anonymously. Generally, we don't collect personal information when you browse — not even your email address. Your browser, however, does automatically tell us the type of computer and operating system you are using.

How we control personal data

We control personal data to keep people up to date about the latest product launches, software updates, special offers, and other useful information, which may be of interest. This may sometimes include information from other technology companies about products and services that can add value to your MyDuoTraining products. Occasionally, we may also use personal data to contact you to take part in market research surveys, so that we can measure customer satisfaction and develop better products and services.

MyDuoTraining has other cooperating partners in various countries, with whom your personal information may be shared. For example, we give postal or freight companies this information so they can deliver your products efficiently. The information they receive is for shipping and delivery purposes only. All our partners have been instructed to comply with our Privacy Policy & Privacy Notice.

At times we may be required by law or legal process to disclose your personal information. In cases when disclosure is necessary for the public interest, we may respond positively as well.

Data retention

For the MyDuoTraining system, the retention period of the data is equal to the period an individual wants to make use of our services. When an individual informs us that he/she no longer wants to make use of our services, or when an individual is removed from our system by his/her employer, or by any other organisation that (originally) added the individual, the personal data of this individual is removed from our system within a fortnight.

Access to your personal data

For instance, never give out your password, as this is what is used to access all of your account information. Also remember to sign out of your account and close your browser window when you finish surfing the internet, so that other people using the same computer won't have access to your information.
You always have access to the information we have about you. If you would like to review personal data that MyDuoTraining may have about you, please email us at info@MyDuoTraining.com.
