4. Data Security

The security of your family’s personal information is extremely important to us. We implement industry-standard physical, electronic, and administrative safeguards to secure the data we collect online and offline.

Access to sensitive child and family details is strictly limited to authorized administrators, directors, and teachers who need the information to perform their roles. We store digital records securely and do not sell, rent, or lease your family’s personal information to third-party advertisers or marketers.

5. Children's Privacy

Due to the nature of our educational services, we collect information concerning children under the age of 13. However, we do so only with explicit consent, authorization, and submissions provided directly by a parent or legal guardian.

If we learn that we have accidentally collected personal data from a child under 13 without verified parental consent, we will delete that information from our databases immediately. Parents have the right to review, update, or request the deletion of their child's records at any time.

6. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location, you may have specific rights regarding your personal information, including:

Access & Correction: The right to request copies of the personal records we hold and ask for corrections if there are errors.
De-enrollment & Deletion: The right to request deletion of non-regulatory records if your family is no longer enrolled in our programs.
Opt-out: The right to unsubscribe from non-essential newsletters or promotional communications from our school.

To exercise any of these rights, please reach out to us using the contact details provided below.

7. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our school policies, licensing standards, or legal frameworks.

When changes are made, we will post the updated policy on this page and revise the "Last updated" date at the top. We encourage parents and visitors to periodically review this page to stay informed about how we safeguard their data.
