Data protection, privacy and cookies

Privacy Policy

The purpose of this privacy policy is to outline how we collect, use and protect information collected via this website. Please read this policy carefully and contact us if you have any queries. If you have any queries, comments, complaints or issues regarding this privacy policy please email support@l33.uk.com.

We are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of technology or ability.

To report any bugs with the Paediatric Critical Care in Practice website, please please email support@l33.uk.com. 

What information do we collect, and when do we collect this information?

We collect the following information as part of the registration process for use within the website:

• Title
• First name
• Surname
• Primary contact email address (also used for username)

We store information relating to participation, to include answers to all questions, level of progression through the learning modules, clicks on all content and final assessment scores.

What is the user data being used for?

The registration information collected is used as part of the verification process when users register to use the website.

How will user data be stored and remain secure? 

All data is stored (all clear text) in a secure, encrypted and password protected database only accessible in L33 office locations. L33 have agreed to host the modules in kind. The database is secured by Internet Protocol and all data is sent by Secure Socket Layer (SSL), a security technology for establishing an encrypted link between a server and a client.

How will we ensure user data is not shared without consent?

By confirming your registration to use the Paediatric Critical Care in Practice website you are agreeing for your data to be held by L33. 

Data Protection

In the performance of our duties under this agreement, we agree to comply with the provisions and principles of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK data protection legislation.

What happens if a user wants their user data deleted?

If you want your user data to be deleted you can request this by emailing support@l33.uk.com. We can obfuscate personal data making it unidentifiable. We cannot however entirely delete the user record as we need to keep the associated data relating to participation; however that would become anonymised and therefore not reportable against an individual user.

Use of cookies

A cookie is a small data file that is sent to your computer or other electronic devices from a website and is stored on your device's hard drive when you visit that website. There are different types of cookies which are used to do different things. These include letting you navigate between different pages on a website efficiently, remembering preferences you have given and helping us to identify ways to improve your overall site experience. Others are used to provide you with advertising which is more tailored to your interests or to measure the number of site visits and the most popular pages users visit. Cookies cannot be used to identify you personally.

Generally, there are two different types of browser cookie, session cookies which are stored in the computer's memory during a user's browsing session and are automatically deleted from your computer when the browser is closed or the session is deemed to have ended; and persistent cookies which are stored on the user's computer and are not deleted when the browser is closed. Persistent cookies can be used to retain user preferences for a particular website, allowing those preferences to be used in future browsing sessions.
