The data of eVOX account holders (e-learning platform), such as surname, first name and e-mail address, is not stored after the user has finished using the platform.
However, we keep documents (including electronic documents) containing personal data:

We take reasonable technical and organizational precautions to prevent the loss, misuse or alteration of your personal information.
We store all the personal information you provide on secure servers (password and firewall protected).
All electronic financial transactions carried out via our website are protected by encryption technologies.
You acknowledge that the transmission of information over the Internet is inherently insecure, and that we cannot guarantee the security of your data sent over the Internet.
- YOUR RIGHTS
Everyone has the right to request a copy of their personal data, correct it, delete it or restrict its processing. In addition, it is possible for anyone to refuse the processing of their personal data in certain circumstances (in particular if VOXEA does not need to process your data to fulfil a legal or contractual obligation). These rights may be limited, for example if responding to a request would reveal personal data about someone else or if the person in question requests the deletion of information that VOXEA is obliged by law to retain or that compelling legitimate interests require to be retained.
All requests are subject to the presentation of sufficient proof of your identity. For this purpose, we generally accept the presentation of your passport or photo ID.
