Last updated: September 30, 2026. This policy describes how Catalyst Programmers (“we”, “us”) handles personal information when you use our website, register an account, or interact with our training and coaching services.
1. Our commitment
We do not sell your data, and we do not share your personal information with advertisers, data brokers, or other companies for their own use. What you give us stays with us and is used only to run our website and programs and to meet legal requirements (for example, if a court orders disclosure). We do not hand your details to third parties for marketing or profiling.
2. Information we may collect
- Account details: name, email, username, and similar identifiers you provide when registering or enrolling.
- When you use Sign in with Google, Google shares basic profile information with us (such as your name, email address, profile picture, and a unique account identifier). We use this to create or link your Catalyst Programmers account. We do not receive your Google password.
- Contact and enquiry information when you submit forms or messages to us.
- Technical data such as browser type, general device information, and IP address, which helps us keep the site secure and working.
3. Sign in with Google
For students and members, sign-in and registration use Google Sign-In only. Authentication is handled by Google’s OAuth service; you choose which Google account to use and can review what Google shares in Google’s own sign-in screen. We store your Google account identifier and the profile fields above so you can log in again and access enrolled content. Google’s handling of your data is governed by Google’s Privacy Policy. Owner, admin, and staff accounts may still use a separate username-and-password login when Google Sign-In is unavailable or for internal access.
4. How we use your information
We use the information above to provide and improve our programs, manage your account, respond to enquiries, send service-related notices, and comply with legal obligations. We process data only as needed for these purposes.
5. Storage & security
We take reasonable steps to protect your information against unauthorised access or misuse. No online service can guarantee perfect security. If you sign in with Google, keep your Google account secure (strong password, two-factor authentication where available). Do not share your login with others.
6. Cookies & similar technologies
Our site may use cookies or similar tools needed for login sessions and basic site functionality. We do not use third-party advertising trackers to sell your behaviour data to others.
7. Your rights
Depending on applicable law, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete certain personal data we hold about you, or to object to certain processing. Contact us using the details on our website and we will respond within a reasonable time.
8. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy occasionally. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Please review this page periodically.
9. Contact
For privacy-related questions, please reach out through the contact information on our website.
