Privacy Policy
Last updated: 18 September 2026
Advancing Behaviour Analysts is operated by Amber Bryant as a sole trader in the United Kingdom. This notice explains how we use personal information when you use our website, create a learner account, purchase or complete APD, contact us, or receive a certificate.
Information we collect
Depending on how you use the site, we may collect your name, email address, account details, UK-SBA certificate number, course enrolment and progress information, assessment results, certificate and completion records, order and transaction information, correspondence, and technical information needed to operate and secure the website.
Why we use your information
We use personal information to create and manage learner accounts; provide purchased courses and learner support; process orders and maintain transaction records; record course progress, assessment and completion; issue and verify certificates; respond to enquiries; maintain website security; meet legal, tax and regulatory obligations; and improve our services where appropriate.
Lawful bases
Depending on the activity, we process information because it is necessary to perform our contract with you, to comply with a legal obligation, for our legitimate interests in operating and securing the business and providing learner support, or with your consent where consent is required.
Who we share information with
We use service providers needed to operate the website and deliver our services, including website hosting and learning-management, payment, email and security providers. They may process information only as necessary to provide those services. Payment card details are handled by our payment provider and are not intended to be stored directly by Advancing Behaviour Analysts.
International processing
Some service providers may process information outside the United Kingdom. Where this occurs, we use providers and safeguards appropriate to UK data-protection requirements.
How long we keep information
We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including providing access to learner records and certificates and meeting tax, accounting, legal and regulatory requirements. Different categories of information may therefore have different retention periods.
Your rights
UK data-protection law gives you rights over your personal information in certain circumstances, including rights to access, correct or erase information, restrict or object to some processing, and receive certain information in a portable format. Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw it.
To exercise a privacy right or ask a question, email admin@advancingbehaviouranalysts.co.uk. You also have the right to complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office.
Cookies and similar technologies
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies needed for functions such as account login, security, shopping and site preferences. Where consent is legally required for non-essential technologies, these should not be used until you make your choice. See our Cookie Policy for more information.
Changes to this notice
We may update this notice as our services or legal requirements change. The latest version will be published on this page.
