  • Educational Use Data: videos viewed, content usage, learning progress

  • Communications Data: responses to surveys, feedback forms, emails

We do not knowingly collect sensitive categories of data (e.g. health, political, or religious beliefs).

5. Data Transfers and Third-Party Providers

Socraflix uses trusted third-party providers (such as Stripe for payments and Mailchimp for email communications) to deliver parts of our service. These providers may process data outside the UK, including in the United States.

Where data is transferred internationally, appropriate safeguards are in place, such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) and the UK–US Data Privacy Framework, to ensure your information remains protected in line with UK GDPR requirements.

Personal data is only shared with such providers where necessary to operate the service, process payments securely, or send communications you have opted into.

6. Analytics and Cookies

We use cookies and analytics tools to understand how our platform is used and to improve performance. Data collected may include IP addresses, browser type, device type, location, entry/exit pages, and timestamps.

You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but some features may not function correctly.

7. Email Notices

When you register, you may receive:

  • Account-related emails (welcome messages, billing updates, password resets)

  • Service updates and marketing emails, if you opt in

You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link or contacting us. Essential service communications cannot be opted out of.

8. Social Media Engagement

Socraflix may maintain an official presence on social platforms (e.g. Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube). Any engagement with us on these platforms is subject to the privacy policies of the respective platforms. Socraflix is not responsible for how social media providers collect, use, or share your data.

9. Security

We use SSL encryption, secure servers, and organisational measures to protect your data. However, no system is entirely secure. You are responsible for keeping your login credentials safe.
