Privacy Policy

Effective Date: May 15, 2025

At ABC Child Care & Learning Center, we take your privacy seriously. We are committed to protecting the personal information you share with us—whether through our website, enrollment forms, or direct communication—and to using that information responsibly and securely. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information in accordance with current data privacy standards.

When you visit our website or fill out any of our forms, we may collect certain types of personal information, including parent or guardian names, contact details, emergency contact information, and details about your child such as name, birth date, medical needs, or care instructions. This information is used solely for the purpose of providing high-quality care, completing the enrollment process, maintaining communication with your family, and meeting regulatory requirements. Online, we may also collect non-personal information, such as IP addresses, browser types, and general location data to help us understand how visitors use our website and to improve site functionality. This technical data is collected anonymously and is not linked to your identity.

Any information you provide is used only for internal purposes. We do not sell or rent your information to third parties. In some cases, we may be required to share information with licensing or regulatory authorities, but only when legally obligated and with the utmost care for your privacy.

To protect your data, we implement industry-standard safeguards, including encryption for online form submissions, password-protected systems, and limited access based on staff roles. While we strive to maintain a secure environment, no system is completely immune to security threats. Should a data breach ever occur, we will notify all affected parties as required by applicable law.

We also use cookies and basic analytics tools to understand how visitors interact with our website. These tools help us identify which pages are visited most often, how long users stay on our site, and where visitors are coming from. This information is collected on an anonymous basis and helps us continue improving your experience. You can disable cookies in your browser at any time, although some parts of our site may not function properly without them.

You have full control over your information. At any time, you may request to access, update, correct, or delete the personal data we have on file, subject to certain regulatory or licensing requirements that may require us to retain some records. You may also opt out of receiving non-essential communication from us, such as newsletters or event announcements, by contacting us directly.

We are especially sensitive to the privacy of children. Our website and communications are intended for adults—specifically parents and legal guardians. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13 without verified adult consent. Any information regarding a child must be submitted by a parent or legal guardian. If we become aware that a submission was made in violation of this policy, we will delete the data promptly.

We retain personal data only for as long as needed to fulfill its original purpose and to meet compliance obligations. Once that data is no longer necessary, we securely delete or destroy it. Our privacy practices apply only to our organization and website. While our site may contain links to third-party resources, we are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of those external sites.

We reserve the right to update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices, technologies, or applicable laws. Any updates will be reflected by the “Effective Date” listed at the top of this page. In the case of material changes, we will provide additional notice as appropriate.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or would like to exercise your data rights, please contact our privacy admin at privacy@digital3e.com or submit your inquiry through our online contact form. We are committed to transparency and appreciate the trust you place in ABC Child Care & Learning Center.
