Privacy Policy

1.0 Our principles regarding user privacy and data protection

  • Only necessary data should be collected and processed
  • We hate spam and will never sell, rent or otherwise distribute or make public your personal information

2.0 Relevant legislation

This website aims to comply with the following national and international legislation with regards to data protection and user privacy:

3.0 Personal information that this website collects and why we collect it

How this website collects and uses personal information:

3.1 Site visitation tracking

Like most websites, this site uses Google Analytics (GA) to track user interaction. We use this data to determine the number of people using our site, to better understand how they find and use our web pages and to see their journey through the website. Although GA records data such as your geographical location, device, internet browser and operating system, none of this information personally identifies you to us. We utilise Google’s ‘Anonymise’ function so that you cannot be identified by your IP address. We consider Google to be a third party data processor (see below).

3.2 Making a booking

We request information from you during the booking process. To make a booking, you must provide your contact information such as your name and email address. We will use this information if we need to contact you about your booking. We also ask for some emergency contact numbers which we may use if we need to contact you urgently or if we need to seek medical help for your child.

In order to provide our services, we also require information about any children you wish to book onto our courses but we will not disclose this information unecessarily. If you have given permission for us to seek medical advice for your child in an emergency, we may deem it appropriate to give any medical details we hold to the persons consulted.

Your payment is processed by our third-party payment provider (PayPal), and the information you supply to them is used to make the transaction. We never have access to your financial information (such as credit card details).

3.3 Contact forms and email links

Should you choose to contact us using a contact form or an email link, none of the data that you supply will be stored by this website or passed to / be processed by any of the third party data processors mentioned. Instead the data will be collated into an email and sent to us.

3.4 Email newsletter

If you choose to join our email newsletter, the email address that you submit to us will be forwarded to MailChimp who provide us with email marketing services. We consider MailChimp to be a third party data processor. The email address that you submit will not be stored within this website’s own database or in any of our internal computer systems unless you are also placing an order (see above).

Your email address will remain within MailChimp’s database for as long as we continue to use MailChimp’s services for email marketing or until you specifically request removal from the list. You can do this by unsubscribing using the unsubscribe links contained in any email newsletters that we send you or by requesting removal via email. When requesting removal via email, please send your email to us using the email account that is subscribed to the mailing list.

If you are under 16 years of age you MUST obtain parental consent before joining our email newsletter.
