Arabic School respects your privacy and is committed to handling personal data responsibly, transparently, and securely. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, why we use it, the legal grounds for processing it, how long we keep it, with whom it may be shared, and the rights available to you under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable Swedish law.
1. Who We Are
Arabic School is an online learning platform available at https://arabicschool.co/.
The data controller responsible for personal data processed through Arabic School is:
Business name: Lebario IT, operating as Arabic School
Country of establishment: Sweden
Privacy email: arabicschoolco@gmail.com
In this policy, “Arabic School,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to the business operating Arabic School.
2. Scope of This Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to personal data processed through the Arabic School website and learning platform, including account registration, course enrolment, lessons, exercises, examinations, certificates, discussion forums, support services, payments, and related communications.
It does not govern third-party websites or services that process personal data under their own privacy policies.
3. Personal Data We Collect
The personal data we collect depends on how you use Arabic School.
Account and registration data
When you create an account, use a permitted external sign-in service, or enrol in a course, we may process:
- Name
- Email address
- Username and internal user ID
- Country, city, time zone, or preferred language, where provided or required
- Authentication and account-status information

- Other information you choose to add to your profile
If you sign in through an external identity provider, such as Google, we may receive basic account information from that provider in accordance with the permissions shown to you during sign-in.
Payment and transaction data

- Name and contact details
- Course or service purchased
- Amount, currency, and payment date
- Payment status and transaction reference

Payments may be handled by external payment providers or banks. Arabic School does not normally receive or store complete payment-card details. Those providers process payment information under their own privacy notices.
Communication data
If you contact us, we may process your name, email address, the content of your message, attachments, and any other information you choose to provide.
Technical, security, and usage data
When you access the website or learning platform, our systems and authorised service providers may automatically process:
- Internet Protocol (IP) address
- Browser, device, and operating-system information
- Date and time of access
- Pages and learning activities accessed
- Referring page or website
- Login, session, and activity records
- Cookie identifiers, where applicable
- Error, diagnostic, and security logs
We use this information to provide the platform, maintain security, prevent misuse, diagnose technical problems, and improve reliability and usability.
4. Where Personal Data Comes From
We normally receive personal data:
- Directly from you when you register, enrol, study, make a payment, or contact us
- Automatically from your browser, device, and use of the platform
- From a sign-in provider if you choose an external sign-in option
- From payment providers or banks in connection with a transaction
5. Why We Use Personal Data and Our Legal Grounds
We process personal data only when a lawful ground applies.
To provide courses and manage your account
We use account, enrolment, learning, assessment, and transaction data to create and manage accounts, enrol learners, provide lessons and course materials, record progress and results, administer examinations and certificates, and respond to course-related requests.
To provide support and essential communications
We use contact, account, and course information to answer questions, provide academic or technical support, send essential account and course messages, and notify you about changes that affect the service.
Legal ground: Performance of a contract and, where applicable, our legitimate interest in communicating with learners and providing effective support.
To operate, secure, and improve the platform
We use technical, login, and usage data to maintain the website, troubleshoot problems, protect accounts, detect unauthorised access, prevent fraud or misuse, and improve performance and usability.
Legal ground: Our legitimate interests in operating, protecting, and improving Arabic School. Where consent is legally required—for example, for optional analytics cookies—we rely on your consent.
To meet legal and accounting obligations
We process and retain relevant transaction, payment, and account information when required for bookkeeping, taxation, consumer protection, regulatory requests, or legal claims.
Legal ground: Compliance with a legal obligation and, where relevant, our legitimate interest in establishing, exercising, or defending legal claims.
To send optional marketing
We may send promotional messages only when we have a lawful basis to do so. Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time by using the unsubscribe option or contacting us.
Legal ground: Consent or another legal ground permitted by applicable direct-marketing law.
We do not use personal data to make decisions based solely on automated processing, including profiling, that produce legal or similarly significant effects on you.
6. Cookies and Similar Technologies
Arabic School uses cookies and similar technologies for purposes that may include:
- Keeping users signed in
- Maintaining account sessions and platform security
- Remembering language or account preferences
- Providing essential website and learning-platform functions
- Measuring performance and understanding how the website is used
Strictly necessary cookies may be used without consent where permitted by law because they are required for the service requested by the user.
Optional analytics, preference, advertising, or other non-essential cookies are used only after valid consent has been obtained where required. You must be able to reject non-essential cookies as easily as you accept them and withdraw or change your choice at any time through the cookie settings available on the website.
You may also control cookies through your browser. Blocking essential cookies may prevent parts of the website or learning platform from working correctly.
A separate Cookie Policy or cookie-settings panel should identify the cookies actually used, their providers, purposes, and storage periods.
7. How We Share Personal Data
We do not sell or rent personal data.
We may share only the personal data necessary with service providers that help us operate Arabic School, such as:
- Website, database, backup, and learning-platform hosting providers
- Payment processors and banking providers
- Identity and sign-in providers, if you choose to use them
- Email, communication, video-meeting, and support services
- Security, diagnostics, and analytics providers
- Technical support and system-administration providers
- Accountants, legal advisers, insurers, and other professional advisers
Service providers acting on our behalf must process personal data only according to our instructions, for agreed purposes, and under appropriate data-protection and confidentiality obligations.
We may also disclose personal data when required by law, a court, or a competent authority, or when necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims or protect users, the platform, or others from fraud, security threats, or serious misuse.
8. International Data Transfers
Some providers may process personal data outside Sweden or the European Economic Area (EEA).
Where personal data is transferred outside the EEA, we use a transfer mechanism recognised by applicable data-protection law. Depending on the destination and provider, this may include an adequacy decision adopted by the European Commission, the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses together with supplementary safeguards where required, or another lawful mechanism.
You may contact us to request further information about the safeguards relevant to a particular transfer.
9. How Long We Keep Personal Data
We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the relevant purpose. Unless a longer period is required or justified, our intended retention periods are:
- Account and profile data: while your account is active.
- Course progress, submissions, and assessment data: for the duration of your enrolment.
- Support and ordinary correspondence: normally for the duration of your enrolment.
- Technical and security logs: normally for the duration of your enrolment.
- Marketing information: normally for the duration of your enrolment.
- Payment, invoice, and accounting records: for the period required by Swedish bookkeeping and tax law, normally seven years
Backups may retain deleted information for a limited additional period until they are securely overwritten under the applicable backup cycle. Access to backup data is restricted.
We may keep particular information longer when required by law, necessary for an ongoing dispute or security investigation, or needed to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims. When information is no longer required, it is deleted or anonymised.
10. Your Data Protection Rights
Subject to the conditions and exceptions in applicable law, you may have the right to:
- Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data
- Request deletion of personal data
- Withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent.
To exercise your rights, email arabicschoolco@gmail.com.
11. Data Security
We use appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure, or access. Measures may include encrypted connections, access controls, account protection, software updates, backups, logging, monitoring, and restrictions on administrative access.
No online service can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for keeping your login details confidential and for contacting us promptly if you suspect unauthorised access to your account.
12. Children’s Privacy
Arabic School’s current courses are primarily designed for adult learners. Children under 13 must not create an account or provide personal data through the platform without the involvement and authorisation of a parent or legal guardian and any other authorisation required by law.
Learners under 18 should use paid services with the involvement of a parent or legal guardian where required under applicable law or our enrolment terms.
If you believe that a child has provided personal data without appropriate authorisation, please contact us at arabicschoolco@gmail.com. We will investigate and delete or otherwise address the information where required.
13. Third-Party Links and Services
The website may link to or integrate with third-party websites or services. A third party may process personal data under its own privacy policy when you choose to use its service. Arabic School is not responsible for the independent privacy practices or content of third parties. We recommend reviewing the relevant privacy notice before providing personal data.
14. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when our services, providers, technologies, legal obligations, or data-processing practices change. The revised policy will be published on this page with an updated date.
If a change materially affects how we process personal data, we will provide additional notice where appropriate and obtain consent where required before the new processing begins.
