1. Data Controller

DiscoverChannel Digital Academy operates discover-channel.digital and acts as the data controller for personal data collected through the site and enrollments.

2. Data We Collect

Identity and contact data (name, email, phone), enrollment details, payment references, communications, technical logs (IP, browser), and cookie identifiers where consented.

3. Purposes of Processing

Deliver courses, respond to inquiries, process enrollments, improve services, send operational notices, and—where you opt in—analytics and marketing.

4. Legal Basis

Processing is based on contract performance, legitimate interests (security, service improvement), legal obligations, and consent where required (e.g., non-essential cookies).

5. Retention

Enrollment records are retained for the period required by tax and education regulations, typically up to five years unless longer retention is legally required. Marketing data is deleted upon withdrawal of consent.

6. Sharing with Third Parties

We use processors for hosting, email, and analytics (only if consented). Contracts require appropriate safeguards. We do not sell personal data.

7. International Transfers

If data is processed outside Korea, we implement safeguards consistent with applicable law, including standard contractual clauses where relevant.

8. Your Rights

Under Korean privacy law you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, and objection where applicable. Contact legal@discover-channel.digital. You may lodge a complaint with the Personal Information Protection Commission.

9. Security Measures

We apply encryption in transit, access controls, and staff training. No method is perfectly secure; report suspected incidents promptly.

10. Children

Services are directed at adults and older teens with guardian consent. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 14 without parental authorization.

11. Policy Changes

We will post updates on this page with a revised last-updated date. Material changes affecting enrolled learners will be communicated by email when feasible.
