Privacy Policy

How NurseryApprenticeship.co.uk collects, uses, shares and protects information submitted through its apprenticeship enquiry service.

This privacy notice explains how NurseryApprenticeship.co.uk, operated by Blockwriter Ltd, uses personal information submitted through this website.

Who controls your information?

Blockwriter Ltd is the controller for information collected by this website. Our address is 167–169 Great Portland Street, 5th Floor, London, W1W 5PF, United Kingdom. Contact elliot@apprenticeshipsai.co.uk.

Information we collect

When you make an enquiry, we may collect your name, work email address, telephone number, postcode, nursery or organisation name, workforce and employment information, apprenticeship level or training need, and any information you add to the message field.

We also receive basic technical information needed to operate and secure the website, such as IP address, browser information, timestamps and server logs. With your consent, analytics may also collect information about how you use the site.

Why we use it

  • To respond to your enquiry
  • To assess what apprenticeship route may be relevant
  • To refer you or your staff enquiry to a suitable apprenticeship training provider where appropriate
  • To maintain records of consent and communications
  • To prevent spam, misuse and security incidents
  • To understand and improve website use where analytics consent is given
  • To meet legal and regulatory obligations

Sharing with training providers

If your enquiry appears suitable and you have asked us to progress it, we may share the details you submit with an apprenticeship training provider so that it can contact you, conduct its own eligibility assessment and explain available programmes. We do not guarantee that a provider will accept or enrol you.

Lawful basis

We rely on your consent when you ask us to assess and share an enquiry, and for optional analytics cookies. We may also process limited information where necessary for our legitimate interests in operating, protecting and improving the service, provided those interests do not override your rights.

How long we keep information

Enquiry records are normally retained for up to 24 months so we can manage referrals, queries and complaints, unless a longer period is required for legal reasons. Routine security logs may be retained for a shorter period.

Your rights

Depending on the circumstances, you may have rights to access, correct, erase or restrict your personal information, object to processing, withdraw consent and complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that occurred before withdrawal.

Cookies

Necessary cookies support security, forms and website operation. Optional analytics technologies are controlled through the consent banner. See our cookie policy and use the cookie settings link to change your choice.
