Privacy
Three forms, one inbox and analytics you can turn off. Here's exactly what we take, who sees it, and how long we keep it.
Who we are
English for Techies is an Innov8 Global Labs programme. Innov8 Global Advisory runs it and is the controller for everything on this page:
Innov8 Global Advisory21701 Stevens Creek Blvd #1022
Cupertino, California 95015
USA
For people in Russia there's also an operator under Federal Law No. 152-FZ; its details are on the Russian version of this page. To see what we hold about you, correct it, or have it deleted, write to info@i8gl.com. That's the address for every question below.
What we collect
Only what you type into one of the three forms, and only when you press the button:
- An application. Your name, your project if you gave one, its stage, the seat you chose, a way to reach you, the fact that you ticked the consent box and the moment you did.
- The waiting list. Your email address, your consent and its moment.
- The dispatch. Your email address, your consent and its moment.
Each one also records which language you were reading and which page you sent it from, so we can reply in the right one. The typefaces and photographs come from this domain, and the Y Combinator talks are links to YouTube, not players loaded into the page. Our hosting provider records what every website receives - an IP address and a browser - to serve the page and keep it up.
Anonymous page statistics. We count visits with Umami, which we run ourselves. It sets no cookies, builds no profile and can't identify you: it records which page was opened, roughly which country from, which site sent you, and when a button or a form was used - never what you typed.
Cookies. We use analytics cookies to improve the site. You can change your choice in cookie settings.
Why, and on what basis
To answer your application and hold a conversation about a seat, because you applied. To write when a cohort opens, or with the dispatch, because you asked us to. Nothing you give us is used for anything else, and nothing is sold or shared for marketing.
Who else touches it
Netlify, Inc. (United States) hosts the site and stores each submission when you press send. Google (Google Workspace) delivers the copy that lands in our inbox at info@i8gl.com. Neither reads it for its own purposes. The analytics tools above are other companies too, and see how pages are used, never what you typed.
Our record of enquiries. When you send a form, your message and your answers also go into our own record of enquiries, and into the customer-relationship tools we use to reply and to keep track of the conversation. Nothing there is used for advertising.
How long we keep it
- An application, and our record of it: two years from the last exchange, then deleted. Letters we exchange stay with our correspondence until you ask us to delete them.
- The waiting list and the dispatch: until you ask to leave. Write to info@i8gl.com and you're off the same day.
Your rights
Ask what we hold, have it corrected, have it deleted, or take your consent back - one email to info@i8gl.com, no form to fill in. If you think we've handled something badly and haven't put it right, you can complain to the data protection authority where you live.
Security, and the honest limit of it
Everything travels over an encrypted connection and sits in Netlify's and Google's systems, which are far better protected than anything we could run ourselves. What we can't promise is that nothing will ever go wrong. If it does, and it affects you, we'll tell you.
Children
The course is for working adults. This site isn't aimed at anyone under 18 and we don't knowingly keep anything about anyone under 18; if you think we have, write to info@i8gl.com and it goes.
Changes
If any of this changes, the date at the top changes with it. We won't quietly widen what we collect.
