1. Introduction and Commitment
Tara Finance is committed to handling personal information carefully and transparently. We collect only what we need to operate our courses and communicate with learners. We do not sell, share, or use personal data for advertising purposes. This policy is written in plain language and we are happy to clarify any part of it on request.

- Cookies: Our website uses cookies as described in our Cookie Policy. We collect limited technical data about how the site is used.
- Communications: If you email or call us, we retain records of that communication for service continuity purposes.
The legal basis for processing this data is your consent (given when you submit a form or accept cookies), the performance of a contract (your course enrolment), and our legitimate interest in operating a functioning educational service.
