Data sharing

Univer does not sell personal information. Information may be shared only where necessary for the operation of our services or where an appropriate legal basis exists.

Depending on the service, information may be shared with:

  • Universities and educational institutions relevant to a student's inquiry or application.
  • Schools and authorized education partners.
  • Technology and infrastructure providers that support our platform.
  • Professional service providers acting on our behalf.
  • Authorities where disclosure is required by applicable law.

Service providers are expected to process information only for the purposes for which it has been provided and subject to appropriate safeguards.

04

Data security

We use technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, misuse, or loss.

These measures may include access controls, secure infrastructure, authentication mechanisms, monitoring, and internal data-handling procedures.

No internet-based service can guarantee absolute security. However, we continuously review how information is handled and work to maintain safeguards appropriate to the nature of the information we process.

05

Data retention

We retain personal information for as long as it is reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including providing services, maintaining appropriate business records, resolving disputes, and meeting legal or regulatory obligations.

When information is no longer required, it may be deleted, anonymized, or securely archived where retention is required.

06

Your rights

Depending on your location and applicable data protection legislation, you may have rights relating to your personal information.

These may include the right to:

  • Request access to personal information we hold about you.
  • Request correction of inaccurate information.
  • Request deletion of eligible personal information.
  • Object to or restrict certain processing activities.
  • Withdraw consent where processing relies on consent.
  • Request a copy of certain information in a portable format where applicable.

Some rights may be subject to legal limitations or verification requirements.

07

International data transfers

Univer operates across multiple markets and works with universities, partners, and technology providers in different countries.

As a result, information may be processed outside the country in which it was originally collected. Where required, we take reasonable steps to ensure appropriate protections are in place for international transfers of personal information.
