How the Foundation for Oral Rehabilitation handles personal information across the Zygoma Hub educational platform.
Last updated
March 15, 2026. This policy is intended for the Foundation for Oral Rehabilitation educational platform and applies to Zygoma Hub unless a more specific notice says otherwise.
1. Scope
This Privacy Policy explains how the Foundation for Oral Rehabilitation (FOR) collects, uses, stores, and protects personal information when you use Zygoma Hub and related educational services.
It applies to public visitors, registered members, faculty contributors, and anyone who contacts us through forms, support channels, or email connected to the platform.
2. Information we collect
We may collect identity and account details such as your name, email address, organization, professional role, country, and login credentials or authentication tokens handled by our service providers.
We also collect platform activity data such as lesson progress, assessment results, certificates issued, profile preferences, forum posts, case submissions, support requests, and technical information needed to maintain platform security and reliability.
3. How we use information
We use personal information to operate the platform, authenticate users, deliver educational content, issue certificates, respond to support inquiries, improve the learning experience, and maintain the safety and integrity of our services.
We may also use contact details to send service announcements, program updates, or educational communications that are relevant to your account or participation. You can opt out of non-essential marketing communications at any time.
4. Cookies, analytics, and platform telemetry
Zygoma Hub may use cookies, local storage, session technologies, and similar tools to keep you signed in, remember preferences, measure usage, prevent abuse, and understand how educational content is being used.
Where analytics or telemetry tools are used, we limit access to authorized personnel and use the data for platform improvement, troubleshooting, and service planning.
5. Sharing and service providers
We may share data with trusted service providers that help us host the platform, authenticate users, send email, store learning records, provide support workflows, or secure the service. These providers may only use the data for the contracted purpose.
We may also disclose information where required by law, to protect the rights and safety of FOR, our members, or patients, or in connection with organizational restructuring or program transitions.
6. Data retention
We retain account, educational, and support information for as long as needed to provide the platform, document educational completion, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our policies.
Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information, whether you maintain an active account, and whether records are required for continuing education or operational compliance.
7. Your choices and rights
Subject to applicable law, you may request access to your personal information, correction of inaccurate details, deletion of data that we no longer need, restriction of certain processing, or a copy of the information you have provided to us.
You may also update profile information directly inside the platform where available. Requests that affect course records or certificate integrity may require identity verification before action is taken.
8. Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. No internet service can guarantee absolute security.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials, using secure devices and networks, and notifying us promptly if you believe your account has been compromised.
9. International use
FOR operates internationally and the platform may be accessed from multiple jurisdictions. Your information may be processed in countries other than your own, subject to appropriate safeguards and provider commitments.
