We take special care to protect children’s information and ensure that all data collection complies with relevant privacy laws. Parents or guardians must consent to the collection of personal information for students under the age of 18.

In cases where the Minor is unable to comprehend this privacy policy, their parent or legal guardian must provide consent on their behalf. This consent allows the Minor’s personal information to be collected, used, and shared in line with the terms outlined in this privacy policy.
