Privacy Policy – BEC Assessment Evaluation Team
Borderless Education Council (BEC)
Effective Date: 24-10-2026
Last Updated: 23-10-2026
1. Introduction
Borderless Education Council (BEC) respects the privacy of teachers, educators, academic professionals, and other individuals who register to be considered for assessment evaluation and reporting assignments.
This Privacy Policy explains how BEC collects, uses, processes, stores, and protects personal information submitted through the BEC Assessment Evaluation Team registration form and related communications.
By submitting the registration form, applicants acknowledge that their information will be handled in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable data-protection laws.
2. Information We Collect
Depending on the information requested in the registration form, BEC may collect:
- Personal information: Full name, contact number, email address, country, state, and city.
- Academic information: Educational qualifications, subject expertise, teaching experience, and professional background.
- Professional documents: CV, résumé, qualification certificates, and other supporting documents voluntarily submitted or reasonably required for verification.
- Assignment preferences: Subjects, grade levels, preferred assignment types, availability, and work preferences.
- Communication records: Correspondence concerning registration, assignment offers, submitted work, feedback, and payments where applicable.
- Technical information: Limited website or form-submission data, where collected by the website, hosting provider, or relevant plugins.
Applicants should not submit unnecessary sensitive personal information through the registration form.
3. Purposes of Information Collection
BEC may use the collected information to:
- Review applications and assess an educator’s suitability for assignment-based work.
- Verify relevant qualifications, experience, and subject expertise.
- Maintain a database of registered educators for potential future assignments.
- Identify suitable educators for checking student assessments, evaluating answers, assigning grades, preparing reports, and verifying results.
- Communicate assignment offers, instructions, deadlines, feedback, and payment terms.
- Maintain assignment, evaluation, administrative, and financial records where applicable.
- Prevent fraud, unauthorized access, and misuse of assessment materials.
- Comply with applicable legal obligations and respond to legitimate legal requests.
Registration does not guarantee selection, assignment allocation, regular work, or employment. Personal information may be retained for consideration for future assignments, subject to this Policy and applicable law.
4. Assignment-Based Engagement
The registration process is intended to identify educators who may be suitable for individual academic evaluation and reporting assignments.
Submitting personal information does not, by itself, create an employment relationship, guarantee remuneration, or establish an entitlement to permanent or full-time salaried employment with BEC.
Where an assignment is offered, BEC may use the applicant’s information to communicate the specific assignment scope, deliverables, deadlines, and applicable remuneration arrangements.
5. Student and Assessment Data
Educators selected for assignments may receive access to student responses, answer sheets, assessment records, scores, grades, or other academic information necessary to perform the assigned work.
Such information must be used solely for the authorized BEC assignment. Educators must not disclose, copy, publish, sell, distribute, or otherwise misuse student information or assessment materials.
Where required, BEC may provide additional confidentiality instructions or data-handling requirements before granting access to assessment records.
6. Disclosure of Information
BEC does not intend to sell applicants’ personal information.
Information may be shared on a need-to-know basis with:
- Authorized BEC administrators and personnel responsible for registration, assignment allocation, evaluation, and reporting.
- Website hosting providers, form-processing services, email providers, and other service providers necessary to operate the registration system.
- Authorized persons involved in qualification verification, where appropriate.
- Legal, regulatory, or governmental authorities where disclosure is required or permitted by applicable law.
Service providers receiving personal information should be subject to appropriate confidentiality and security obligations, as applicable.
BEC will seek to limit disclosure to information reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.
7. Data Storage and Security
BEC will take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, alteration, disclosure, or misuse.
Such measures may include access controls, restricted administrative permissions, secure website connections, and appropriate handling of uploaded documents.
No website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Applicants should therefore avoid submitting information that is not requested or necessary.
8. Data Retention
BEC may retain registration information for as long as reasonably necessary to:
- Review and administer educator registrations.
- Consider applicants for suitable future assignments.
- Maintain records of completed assignments and related payments.
- Resolve disputes and meet applicable legal or accounting requirements.
Where information is no longer required, BEC will take reasonable steps to delete, anonymize, or securely dispose of it, subject to applicable retention obligations.
9. Applicants’ Privacy Rights
Subject to applicable law, applicants may request:
- Access to their personal information held by BEC.
- Correction of inaccurate or incomplete information.
- Withdrawal of consent where processing relies on consent.
- Deletion of information that is no longer required or that must be deleted under applicable law.
- Information about the handling of their personal data.
- Review of concerns regarding the use or disclosure of their information.
Requests may be submitted using the contact details provided at the end of this Policy. BEC may need to verify the applicant’s identity before processing a request.
Withdrawal of consent or deletion of information may affect the ability to consider the applicant for future assignments or administer an existing assignment.
10. Cookies and Website Technologies
The registration website may use cookies or similar technologies for security, website functionality, analytics, or form processing, depending on the configuration of the website and its installed plugins.
Applicants may manage cookies through their browser settings, subject to the effect this may have on website functionality. Where required by law, BEC will provide appropriate notices or obtain consent.
11. Third-Party Services and External Links
The registration form may rely on third-party services, including hosting, email, document storage, or form-management providers. Such services may process information according to their own privacy terms and applicable agreements.
Applicants should review relevant third-party privacy notices where appropriate.
12. Children’s Information
The BEC Assessment Evaluation Team registration form is intended for adult educators and academic professionals. It is not intended to collect personal information from children.
13. Changes to This Privacy Policy
BEC may update this Policy to reflect changes in its registration process, assignment procedures, technology, or legal requirements.
The updated version will be published on the relevant BEC website with a revised update date. Applicants should review the Policy periodically.
