By providing your personal information to us, you consent to such cross-border transfers to the extent permitted by law.
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law. Student academic records are retained for a minimum of 30 years following the completion or cessation of a course, in accordance with the requirements of the Education Services for Overseas Students Act 2000 (Cth).
