We have adopted this Privacy Policy as we recognise the right of individuals to keep their personal information private. The principles set out in this policy will apply to any personal information you provide to the British Council via our web site or under any agreement or arrangement and to information that we collect about you from other sources.

How we collect your information
We will only collect information relevant to our business relationship with you.
Generally, the type of personal information we collect about you includes your name, mailing address, telephone number and e-mail address. We rarely need to collect sensitive information (such as health) and will not do so without consent.
The British Council in Argentina will not collect any personal information about visitors to the website except when they knowingly provide it.

How we use your information
We use personal information for the primary purpose for which it is collected. That may include supplying our services or responding to an individual’s request.
We may use your information to offer services that we believe meet your needs. However, you can notify us at any time if you do not wish to receive this information.
We will not collect or use personal information in ways other than as stated in this policy unless we have obtained an individual’s consent.

Access to your information
We will, on request, provide you with access to the personal information we hold about you. This service is free unless the information you request requires significant research or preparation time. Before we act upon requests of this nature, we will tell you how much this service will cost.

Your information is secure
We take steps to ensure that your personal information is kept secure and confidential.
The Internet is not always a secure method of transmitting information. Accordingly, the British Council cannot accept responsibility for the security of information you send to or receive from us over the Internet or for any unauthorised access or use of that information.

Keeping your personal information up-to-date
We take reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information is accurate, complete, and up-to-date whenever we collect or use it.
If you wish to change personal information that is out of date or inaccurate or if you wish to have your personal information deleted please contact us.

If you want more information about this please contact our office in Argentina or the Data Protection Team or see our website.
