Data we collect
We collect data you provide during registration and application — such as name, email, phone, citizenship and documents. We also automatically collect technical data (device, browser, IP) when you use the site.
How we use personal data
We use your data to process applications, match you with suitable programs and partners, notify you about status updates, and improve our service.
Cookies, analytics and session recording
The site uses cookies and the Yandex Metrica analytics service (counter 110821428), provided by Yandex. Metrica loads on every page and sets its own cookies in your browser as soon as you open the site.
Metrica runs with session recording (Webvisor) enabled. This means it records how you use a page: mouse movement, scrolling, clicks, the links you follow, and what you type into form fields. It also collects technical data such as your IP address, device, browser, screen size, the page you arrived from and the pages you view.
We use this to see how visitors move through the site, where they run into problems, and which pages and channels lead to applications and sales, so we can improve the service and our marketing.
This data is sent to and stored by Yandex on its servers, and is processed under Yandex's own terms and privacy policy. You can prevent this collection by blocking cookies or the mc.yandex.ru domain in your browser settings, or by using a browser extension that blocks trackers.
Sharing with third parties
We share your data only with the relevant partner companies and universities needed to process your application. We do not sell your data.
Consent to transfer data to the university
When submitting an application to a university or educational program, you give explicit consent to transfer the necessary personal data (full name, contact details, education information, uploaded documents and other information needed to review the application) to the chosen university or its authorised representatives.
The data is transferred solely for reviewing the application, contacting the applicant and organising the admission process. After the transfer, the university independently processes the personal data in accordance with its own Privacy Policy and applicable law.
Data storage
Data is kept only as long as necessary to deliver the service and meet legal requirements, after which it is deleted or anonymised.
Your rights
You have the right to access, correct, delete your data and object to its processing. Contact us to exercise these rights.
Newsletter and email communications
If you sign up for our newsletter or program updates, we send these emails through our own mailing platform, which we run and control ourselves. Every newsletter email includes an unsubscribe link — clicking it removes you from that mailing list immediately, with no need to contact us.
Emails required to operate your account or process an application (such as status updates or password resets) are not newsletter mail and are sent regardless of your newsletter subscription — these stop only when your account is closed.
