Cookies and Website Information

The Training Store may use cookies and similar technologies to maintain login sessions, remember shopping-cart contents, support checkout, improve site functionality, and help protect the website.

Your browser may allow you to block or delete cookies. Certain Training Store features may not function correctly if required cookies are disabled.

The website may also collect technical information such as browser type, device type, IP address, pages visited, referring page, and approximate access time.

Training and Certification Records

NAVAC may retain registration, attendance, examination, skills-performance, and certification records when required for operational, legal, financial, insurance, or certifying-organization purposes.

Information may be provided to an applicable certifying organization when necessary to issue, maintain, or verify a credential.

Information Concerning Minors

When registration involves a minor, a parent or legal guardian should provide the requested information and complete any required consent documentation.

NAVAC does not knowingly request more information about a minor than is reasonably necessary to administer the applicable program.

Data Security

NAVAC uses reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards intended to protect personal information. However, no website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Customers are responsible for protecting their account credentials and should notify NAVAC if they believe their account has been accessed without authorization.

Data Retention

NAVAC retains personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide services, maintain required training and financial records, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and comply with applicable legal or certification requirements.

Information that is no longer required may be deleted, anonymized, or securely disposed of.

Your Choices

You may contact NAVAC to request that we:

  • Correct inaccurate contact or account information

  • Update your communication preferences

  • Review a privacy-related concern

  • Close your Training Store account, subject to recordkeeping requirements

Some training, certification, payment, or legal records may need to be retained even after an account is closed.

The Training Store may contain links to third-party websites. NAVAC is not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of websites operated by others.

Changes to This Policy

NAVAC may revise this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in its services, technology, or legal obligations. The updated policy will be posted on the Training Store with a revised “Last updated” date.
