Privacy Policy

The National University of Management – International Program of Legal Studies ("NUM iLAW", "we", "us", or "our") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information of everyone who visits this website or interacts with our programs — including prospective and current students, faculty, alumni, event registrants, and job applicants. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

1. Information We Collect

Depending on how you interact with our website, we may collect:

• Contact and identity details you provide directly, such as your name, email address, phone number, and mailing address — for example when you submit an admission inquiry, register as an alumnus, apply for a job posting, or register for an event or moot court program.
• Academic and professional information submitted as part of an admission application, faculty profile, or job application, such as educational background, work history, and uploaded documents (CVs, transcripts, certificates).
• Account credentials for administrators and staff who log in to manage site content, stored as a securely hashed password — we never store passwords in plain text.
• Technical data collected automatically, such as your IP address, browser type, device information, and pages visited, gathered through standard web server logs and session cookies.
• Communications you send us, including messages through contact or registration forms.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Process admission inquiries, event and moot court registrations, and job applications;
• Communicate with you about programs, events, deadlines, and opportunities you have expressed interest in;
• Maintain and improve the security, performance, and content of this website;
• Keep an accurate alumni and faculty directory with the details you choose to share publicly;
• Comply with legal obligations and protect against fraud, abuse, or unauthorized access.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

3. Cookies and Similar Technologies

This website uses a small number of essential cookies — for example, to keep you signed in to the admin dashboard and to remember your selected language (English or Khmer). We also load fonts and icon libraries from trusted third-party content delivery networks (such as Google Fonts and jsDelivr), which may receive standard technical request information (like your IP address) as part of serving those files. We do not use third-party advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.

4. How We Share Information

We only share personal information in limited circumstances:

• With university staff and faculty who need it to process your inquiry, application, or registration;
• With partner organizations or moot court organizers, where you have registered to participate in a jointly run program or competition;
• With service providers who help us operate the website (such as hosting providers), under obligations to keep your data confidential;
• Where required by law, regulation, or a valid legal process.

5. How We Protect Your Information

We apply reasonable technical and organizational safeguards to protect your information, including encrypted password storage, restricted administrator access, rate-limiting and bot-verification on our login system, and session security controls. However, no method of transmission or storage over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

6. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy — for example, admission records are kept for the academic record-keeping periods required by university policy, and event or job application details are retained for a reasonable period after the event or hiring process concludes, unless a longer retention period is required by law.

7. Your Rights and Choices

You may:

• Ask us to confirm what personal information we hold about you;
• Request that we correct inaccurate or outdated information (for example, in the alumni or faculty directory);
• Request that we delete information you previously submitted, where we are not required to keep it for legal or academic record-keeping reasons;
• Opt out of non-essential email communications at any time by contacting us.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details below.

8. Children's Privacy

This website is intended for prospective and current university students, alumni, faculty, and the general public. It is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
