Uses made of the Information
We use information held about you in the following ways:
The Legal Basis for Processing your Information
In accordance with GDPR, the main grounds that we rely upon in order to process your information are as follows:
Disclosure of your Information
We may share your personal information with any member of our group, which means our subsidiaries, our ultimate holding company and its subsidiaries, as defined in section 1159 of the UK Companies Act 2006.
We may share your information with selected third parties including:
Where we Store your Personal Data
The data that we collect from you may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”). It may also be processed by staff operating outside the EEA who work for us or for one of our suppliers. Such staff may be engaged in, among other things, the fulfilment of your order, the processing of your payment details and the provision of support services. By submitting your personal data, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy.
To the extent that any of your data is provided to third parties outside the EEA, or accessed by third parties from outside the EEA, we will ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with the GDPR (such as the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses, or the EU/US Privacy Shield).
Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our site, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our site; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.
How Long we Hold your Information
Once your school ends its subscription, we will ask you if you would like to delete all information stored on the site or in the app. If you confirm deletion, all data relating to your school will be removed.
For all other data, we will only retain your information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting or reporting requirements. The criteria that we use to determine retention periods will be determined by the nature of the data and the purposes for which it is kept, the sensitivity of the data and the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure.
Your Rights
You have certain rights in relation to the personal data that we hold about you. Details of these rights and how to exercise them are set out below. Please note we will require evidence of your identity before we are able to respond to your request.
You may also have the right to restrict our use of your personal information, such as in circumstances where you have challenged the accuracy of the information and during the period where we are verifying its accuracy.
In such circumstances, you can ask us to transmit that information to you or directly to a third party organisation.
While we are happy for such requests to be made, we are not able to guarantee technical compatibility with a third party organisation’s systems. We are also unable to comply with requests that relate to personal information of others without their consent.
You can exercise any of these rights at any time by contacting us at info@lpplus.com.
Our site may, from time to time, contain links to and from the websites of our partner networks, advertisers and affiliates. If you follow a link to any of these websites, please note that these websites have their own privacy policies and that we do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies. Please check these policies before you submit any personal data to these websites.

In the limited circumstances where you may have provided your consent to the collection, processing and transfer of your information for a specific purpose, you have the right to withdraw your consent for that specific processing at any time. You can do this by contacting us using the details in the ‘Contact’ section below.
Once we have received notification that you have withdrawn your consent, we will no longer process your information for the purpose or purposes you originally agreed to, unless we have another legitimate basis for doing so in law.

Learning Possibilities has built a world class team that has over 100 years edtech experience. The team is Chaired by the Prof of Learning and Innovation – Stephen Heppell, and led by Dr Mehool Sanghrajka, who led significant education businesses at two FTSE250 companies prior to founding Learning Possibilities. Other key members include Mandeep Dhillon, formerly of Close Brothers, where he led transformation and delivery; and Vishaal Shah who has a decade of finance and investment experience.

Our LP+ Learning and Collaboration platform was created in 2005 in partnership with Microsoft, Dell and Intel. It has pedagogy at its heart, and from the outset was designed to drive transformation and create new models of education. In 2010, Learning Possibilities published its pedagogical framework – ADOPT – which was selected as the UK’s National Learning Platform Adoption Model, by the UK Department for Education.
For details, see: The Adopt Framework
The LP+365 has been at the forefront of innovation in driving online teaching and learning, and has been recognised through several awards including the prestigious BETT Award, 2 Education Investor Awards, and 2 Microsoft Global Partner of the Year Runner-Up (Education) Awards. We have also Microsoft’s Global Partner in Education.
For details, see: Awards
The LP+365 platform was designed for School Districts and Governments, and built to securely scale through both private and public clouds. The platform has been used by over 600,000 learners in Wales for over six years ( https://lpplus.com/wales-showcase/ ), where the Minister of Education called LP+ a ‘world class platform’. In developing country examples, Learning Possibilities is currently working on a 25m learner project in the Philippines. ( https://lpplus.com/philippines-showcase/ ).
For details, see: Wales Showcase
Learning Possibilities is a ‘social enterprise’ focused on the impact of its work. We publish details of our major studies, including Prof. Don Passey’s (Lancaster University) independent evaluation of the LP+ platform, and the Welsh Government’s report of Learning in Digital Wales.
