Student applications

If you formally apply for our services, we may process additional information necessary to provide the agreed service, including documents required by universities, immigration authorities, insurance providers or other relevant institutions.

We will seek to avoid collecting personal information that is not reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.

4. Special Categories of Personal Data

Some information may constitute special-category data under the GDPR, including certain health information.

We will only collect and process such information where there is a lawful basis and it is necessary for a specific purpose, such as arranging appropriate support, fulfilling a legal obligation or complying with requirements applicable to international student mobility.

We ask users not to submit sensitive information through general website forms unless specifically requested.

5. Why Do We Process Your Data?

We may process personal data for the following purposes:

A. Responding to enquiries

For example, answering questions about studying in Lithuania.

B. Webinar administration

To register participants, send access information, reminders and follow-up materials.

C. Student assessment

To assess whether a student may be suitable for particular university programs or services.

D. University applications

To prepare and coordinate applications at the student’s direction.

E. Immigration support

To assist with documentation and coordination relating to applicable immigration procedures.

F. Student support

To provide accommodation coordination, pre-departure preparation, arrival assistance and related support.

G. Communications

To communicate with students, parents, schools and institutional partners about services and applications.

H. Marketing

Where permitted by law, to send information about webinars, university opportunities, scholarships and related educational services.

I. Legal and regulatory compliance

To meet legal, accounting, contractual, regulatory and record-keeping obligations.

J. Security

To protect our website, systems, users and business from fraud, abuse and security incidents.

6. Legal Bases for Processing

Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on one or more of the following GDPR legal bases:

Consent

For example, where you voluntarily subscribe to marketing communications or provide optional consent through a form.

Contract

Where processing is necessary to enter into or perform a service agreement with you.

Legal obligation

Where processing is necessary to comply with a legal requirement.

Legitimate interests

Where processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests and those interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms.

For example, certain security, administrative and relationship-management activities may rely on legitimate interests.

Other lawful bases

Where required, we may rely on another lawful basis permitted under applicable data-protection legislation.

Where consent is used, it may be withdrawn at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

7. Marketing Communications

We may provide information about:

  • webinars;
  • university opportunities;
  • scholarships;
  • educational programs;
  • events;
  • student opportunities; and
  • related Elite International Talent services.

Where consent is required, we will obtain it separately from acceptance of mandatory terms.

You can unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time by using the unsubscribe mechanism provided or contacting us.

We will not make access to a service conditional on optional marketing consent where the law requires consent to be freely given.

8. Sharing Personal Data

We may disclose personal data where necessary to provide our services or comply with law.

Recipients may include:

  • universities and higher-education institutions;
  • scholarship providers;
  • immigration authorities;
  • embassies or consulates where relevant;
  • accommodation providers;
  • insurance providers;
  • transportation or travel providers;
  • professional advisers;
  • IT and cloud-service providers;
  • webinar and communication platforms;
  • payment providers;
  • accounting providers;
  • legal advisers; and
  • other service providers acting on our behalf.

We only share information that is reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.

Where a third-party service provider processes personal data on our behalf, we take appropriate steps to ensure that the processing is governed by appropriate contractual and GDPR safeguards.

9. International Transfers

Because our services involve Filipino students and international education, personal data may need to be shared with organisations located outside Lithuania and potentially outside the European Economic Area.

Where personal data is transferred outside the EEA, we will use an appropriate legal mechanism required under applicable data-protection law, such as:

  • an adequacy decision;
  • appropriate safeguards, including Standard Contractual Clauses where applicable; or
  • another lawful transfer mechanism.

We will provide further information about specific international transfers where required by law.

10. Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law.

Indicative retention periods include:

Data category

Indicative retention

General website enquiries

Up to 12 months after last meaningful interaction

Webinar registration data

Up to 24 months after the webinar, unless continued relationship exists

Marketing data

Until withdrawal of consent or otherwise according to applicable law

Unsuccessful student applications

Generally up to 24 months after closure, unless longer retention is legally justified

Active student files

During the service relationship and for the period reasonably necessary for legal/accounting purposes afterward

Financial/accounting records

For the period required by applicable law

Legal dispute records

Until the matter and applicable limitation periods have concluded

These periods may be adjusted where a longer or shorter period is required by law or justified by a specific circumstance.

The GDPR requires storage limitation and that personal data not be kept longer than necessary. 

11. Data Security

We use appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against:

  • unauthorised access;
  • accidental loss;
  • unlawful processing;
  • alteration;
  • disclosure;
  • destruction; and
  • other security threats.

Access to student files is restricted according to role and business need.

Particularly sensitive documents should only be accessible to persons who require them for the relevant application or support process.

12. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies for:

  • essential website functionality;
  • security;
  • analytics;
  • improving website performance;
  • understanding website usage; and
  • marketing, where applicable and legally permitted.

Where required, non-essential cookies will only be activated after the appropriate consent has been obtained.

You can also manage cookies through your browser settings.

A separate cookie notice or cookie-management mechanism may be used where required.

13. Your GDPR Rights

Subject to applicable legal conditions, you may have the right to:

  • receive information about how your data is processed;
  • access your personal data;
  • correct inaccurate or incomplete data;
  • request deletion of your data;
  • request restriction of processing;
  • object to certain processing;
  • receive certain personal data in a portable format;
  • withdraw consent where processing is based on consent; and

These rights are recognised under the GDPR. 

14. How to Exercise Your Rights

You may contact us at:

study@eliteinternationaltalent.com

Please describe:

  • your name;
  • the right you wish to exercise;
  • the information or processing concerned; and
  • sufficient information for us to identify your records.

We may need to verify your identity before responding to a request.

Under GDPR rules, organisations generally must respond to data-subject requests without undue delay and normally within one month, subject to permitted extensions. 

15. Right to Lodge a Complaint

If you believe your personal data has been processed unlawfully, you may contact us first so that we can investigate and attempt to resolve the issue.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.

For Lithuania, the supervisory authority is:

State Data Protection Inspectorate

L. Sapiegos str. 17
LT-10312 Vilnius
Lithuania

Email: ada@ada.lt

The Inspectorate confirms its role as Lithuania’s data-protection supervisory authority and provides procedures for data-subject complaints and requests. 

16. Children and Young People

Our services may be relevant to Senior High School students and other young people.

We do not intentionally use the website to collect unnecessary personal information from children.

Where a student is a minor or where parental/guardian involvement is legally or operationally required, we may request appropriate parental or guardian consent before providing certain services or processing particular information.

Parents or guardians who have questions regarding a child’s data may contact us using the details above.

17. Automated Decision-Making and Profiling

We may use structured assessment criteria to help evaluate student eligibility or suitability for particular educational opportunities.

Where an automated decision would have legal or similarly significant effects on an individual, we will comply with the applicable GDPR requirements regarding automated decision-making and profiling.

Our student selection process may involve human review and is not intended to make significant decisions solely through automated processing.

18. Third-Party Websites

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, including universities, government authorities, webinar platforms and other services.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to those third-party websites.

We recommend reviewing their privacy policies before providing personal information.

19. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time.

The current version will be published on this page with the applicable effective date and last-updated date.

Where required, we will provide additional notice or obtain consent for material changes.
