• To understand how the website is used and to improve our content and services;
• To meet legal and regulatory obligations.

4. Legal basis for processing

We process your data on the basis of your consent (e.g. newsletter sign-up, non-essential cookies), the performance of a contract (e.g. providing learning platform access you've registered for), and our legitimate interests in operating and improving CareerRx, provided these are not overridden by your rights.

5. Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies for essential site functionality, analytics, and embedded content. Full details are set out in our Cookie Policy. You can manage your preferences at any time via the cookie settings link in the site footer.

6. Sharing your data

We share data with trusted third-party providers who help us operate CareerRx, including our newsletter platform, analytics providers, website hosting, and our learning platform (Moodle-based, hosted on our own infrastructure). We do not sell your personal data. Providers only process data under our instructions and appropriate data-processing agreements.

7. International transfers

Some of our service providers may process data outside the UK or EEA. Where this occurs, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent protections.

8. Data retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes it was collected — for example, for as long as you remain subscribed to the newsletter, or for as long as your learning platform account is active, plus any additional period required by law.

9. Your rights

Under UK GDPR, you have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your personal data, to object to certain processing, and to data portability. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the link in any email we send. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.
