We will acknowledge your enquiry within five working days and respond in full within 30 days. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may escalate your complaint to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) — see Section 9 for their contact details.

We have determined that we are not required to appoint a Data Protection Officer under Article 37 UK GDPR.

3. What data we process

We collect personal data only where necessary to respond to an enquiry, deliver contracted services, or operate this website. We do not collect sensitive personal data (special category data under UK GDPR) through this website.

3.1 Enquiry data

When you submit a contact form on teltglobal.com, we collect the information you provide: your name, email address, organisation name, job title, the reason for your enquiry, and its content. Providing this information is voluntary, but if you do not provide it we will be unable to respond to your enquiry.

3.2 Client and prospect relationship data

We hold contact information for individuals at client and partner organisations: names, job titles, professional email addresses, and records of communications and programme-related discussions.

3.3 Programme delivery data

During contracted programmes, TELT and its consultants may process personal data relating to programme participants (primarily teachers and education professionals). In these contexts, TELT typically acts as a data processor on behalf of the contracting organisation. See Section 11 for how we handle this.

3.4 Website analytics data

When you visit teltglobal.com, we collect usage data via Google Analytics 4 (GA4), including your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and session behaviour. This data is only collected where you have consented to analytics cookies via our consent banner.

We process the content of emails and other communications sent to us, along with associated metadata, for the purposes of responding and maintaining business records.

We do not use personal data for automated decision-making or profiling.

5. International transfers

Some of our service providers are based outside the UK. Where personal data is transferred outside the UK, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place.

Where our website includes embedded content from third-party platforms such as YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook, or Instagram, those platforms may transfer data to their own servers. We have no control over those transfers — please refer to each platform's own privacy policy.

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.

After the relevant retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised.

7. How we protect your data

Personal data is stored in Google Workspace, which operates on infrastructure certified to ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II. Access to personal data is restricted to TELT staff and associates with a legitimate business need.

We maintain appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against loss, unauthorised access, disclosure, or modification. Where we engage third-party processors, we require them to operate under equivalent obligations.

8. Sharing your data

We do not sell personal data.

We may share data with:

  • Delivery associates and consultants engaged on specific programme work, under confidentiality obligations
  • Service providers processing data on our behalf, as listed in Section 5
  • Regulatory or legal authorities where required by law or for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims

We do not share personal data with third parties for marketing or commercial purposes.

9. Your rights

Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Rectification of inaccurate or incomplete data
  • Erasure of your data where there is no legitimate reason to retain it
  • Restriction of processing in certain circumstances
  • Object to processing based on legitimate interests
  • Data portability — to receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format where processing is based on consent or contract and carried out by automated means
  • Withdraw consent at any time where processing is consent-based, without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal
  • Rights in relation to automated decision-making — we do not engage in automated decision-making or profiling as defined by Article 22 UK GDPR; this right is not currently engaged

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [privacy@teltglobal.com]. We will respond within 30 days.

If you are not satisfied with our response, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO):

10. Cookies

teltglobal.com uses cookies to support site functionality and analytics. Non-essential cookies (including analytics) are only activated after you have given consent via our cookie banner on your first visit. You can withdraw or amend your consent at any time via the cookie settings link in our footer.

11. Data protection in programme delivery

When TELT delivers contracted programmes on behalf of client organisations, personal data relating to programme participants (teachers and other education professionals) is typically controlled by the contracting organisation. In these contexts, TELT acts as a data processor, operating on the documented instructions of the client.

Our approach to data handling in programme contexts:

  • All consultants engaged on programme work are required to handle personal data in line with the terms of their engagement and TELT's data protection obligations
  • Programme participant data is not used for any purpose outside the contracted scope of delivery
  • Programme data is not shared with third parties without prior written agreement from the contracting organisation
  • Delivery records may be retained by TELT for up to 7 years for quality assurance and contractual purposes
  • Where programmes involve international delivery, TELT takes appropriate steps to ensure that cross-border data handling complies with applicable law in the relevant jurisdiction

If you represent an organisation with questions about how TELT handles personal data in programme delivery, contact us at [privacy@teltglobal.com].
