Privacy Policy
Last Updated: March 15, 2025
At Gorinath, we respect your privacy and take protecting your personal information seriously. This policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard data when you interact with our Python mobile game development courses.
We're based in Egypt and operate under Egyptian data protection regulations while following international best practices. If you're reading this, you deserve to know exactly what happens with your information.
Information We Collect
When you sign up for our courses or browse our website, we gather certain information. Some of it you give us directly, and some we collect automatically.
Information You Provide
- Your name and email address when you register for programs
- Phone number if you choose to share it for course updates
- Payment details processed through secure third-party providers
- Messages you send through our contact forms
- Portfolio submissions or project work for evaluation
Automatically Collected Data
- Browser type and operating system details
- IP address and general location information
- Pages you visit on our site and how long you stay
- Referring websites and search terms used
- Device information for mobile visitors
How We Use Your Data
We don't collect information just to have it. Everything we gather serves a specific purpose related to providing educational services.
Primary Uses
Your data helps us deliver course content, communicate important updates, process enrollments, and improve our teaching methods based on student interaction patterns.
| Data Type | Purpose | Retention Period |
|---|---|---|
| Contact Information | Course enrollment and communication | Duration of enrollment plus 2 years |
| Payment Records | Transaction processing and receipts | 7 years per Egyptian tax law |
| Learning Progress | Track achievements and provide feedback | Duration of enrollment plus 1 year |
| Website Analytics | Improve user experience and content | 26 months maximum |
We also use your information to send course announcements, answer questions you've asked, and occasionally share news about upcoming programs that might interest you. You can opt out of promotional messages anytime.
Data Sharing and Disclosure
We don't sell your personal information. That's not our business model, and honestly, it never will be.
When We Share Information
There are specific situations where we share data with carefully selected partners:
- Payment processors handle transaction details securely
- Email service providers help us send course materials
- Hosting companies store website data on secure servers
- Analytics tools provide anonymized usage statistics
All third parties we work with are contractually obligated to protect your data and can only use it for the specific services they provide to us. We choose partners who meet international security standards.
Legal Requirements
We may disclose information if required by Egyptian law, court orders, or to protect the rights and safety of Gorinath, our students, or others. This happens rarely, but we're obligated to mention it.
Your Rights and Choices
Your data belongs to you. Egyptian law and our own principles give you several rights regarding your personal information.
Access and Correction
You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. If something's wrong or outdated, let us know and we'll fix it. This usually takes 3-5 business days.
Data Deletion
Want us to delete your account and associated data? We'll do it, though we may need to keep certain records for legal compliance (like payment history for tax purposes). We'll explain what must stay and why.
Marketing Preferences
Every promotional email includes an unsubscribe link. One click and you're off that list. You'll still receive essential course-related messages if you're enrolled in a program.
Cookie Management
Most browsers let you block or delete cookies. Keep in mind that some website features might not work properly without them. Our site uses minimal cookies focused on functionality rather than tracking.
Data Security Measures
We take security seriously because your trust matters. Our systems include multiple layers of protection.
- SSL encryption for all data transmitted to our servers
- Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments
- Access controls limiting who can view personal data
- Secure backup systems with encrypted storage
- Staff training on data protection practices
- Two-factor authentication for administrative access
No system is completely bulletproof. If a breach ever occurs, we'll notify affected individuals within 72 hours and take immediate steps to address the issue. So far, we've maintained a clean security record since our founding.
Children's Privacy
Our courses are designed for individuals 16 years and older. We don't knowingly collect data from younger children. If you're under 16 and interested in our programs, please have a parent or guardian handle the enrollment process.
If we discover we've accidentally collected information from someone under 16, we'll delete it promptly.
International Data Transfers
Our primary servers are located in Egypt, but some service providers operate from other countries. When data crosses borders, we ensure adequate protection through:
- Contractual agreements requiring equivalent security standards
- Encryption during transfer and storage
- Compliance with both Egyptian and international regulations
- Regular audits of international partners
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use a few cookies to make the site work properly. Here's what they do:
Essential Cookies
These keep you logged in and remember your course progress. Without them, you'd have to re-enter information constantly.
Analytics Cookies
We track which pages get visited most to improve content organization. This data is anonymized and can't identify individual users.
Preference Cookies
These remember settings like language preferences and accessibility options you've chosen.
We don't use advertising cookies or share browsing data with ad networks. Our focus stays on education, not monetizing your attention.
Changes to This Policy
Privacy regulations change, and our practices might need updates to stay compliant. When we modify this policy, we'll post the new version here with an updated date at the top.
Significant changes will be announced via email to enrolled students. Continuing to use our services after changes take effect means you accept the updated terms.
Data Retention Schedule
We don't keep your data forever. Here's our retention approach:
Active Students
While you're enrolled, we keep all necessary data accessible. Course materials, progress tracking, and communications remain available throughout your learning journey.
Inactive Accounts
After program completion, we retain basic records for one year in case you return or need certificates. Learning progress data gets anonymized for quality improvement research.
Financial Records
Payment and enrollment records stay on file for seven years to comply with Egyptian tax and business regulations. These are stored securely with restricted access.
Questions About Your Privacy?
