Because we provide childcare services, we may collect personal information relating to children and their parents or guardians, including sensitive information such as health, emergency contact, pickup authorization, dietary, developmental, and attendance information. We take the handling of such information seriously and apply safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information.

2. Data collection and processing

We collect personal information directly from parents/guardians, through enrollment forms, registration records, communications, attendance records, billing records, incident reports, photographs or videos where consent is provided, and through our website or digital forms where applicable. We may also collect information from authorized third parties, such as emergency contacts, healthcare providers, or government authorities, where permitted or required by law.

The categories of personal information we may collect and process include:

We limit collection to what is reasonably necessary for the identified purposes and retain personal information only as long as required for those purposes and legal obligations.

3. Purpose of data processing

We process personal information for the following purposes:

4. Legal basis for processing

Under Canadian privacy law, we generally rely on knowledge and consent, necessity for service delivery, contractual and pre-contractual requirements, legal obligations, and, in limited circumstances, our legitimate business interests as permitted by law.

Depending on the context, our legal basis for processing may include:

Where consent is required, you may withdraw it at any time subject to legal or contractual restrictions, as described below.

5. Data sharing and third parties

We do not sell personal information. We may disclose personal information to third parties only as necessary and in accordance with applicable law, including:

When we share information with service providers, we require them to use appropriate safeguards and to process the information only for the purposes we specify, subject to contractual and legal obligations.

6. Data transfer to third countries

Some of our service providers or data storage systems may be located outside of Canada, including in the United States or other jurisdictions. As a result, personal information may be transferred to, stored in, or accessed from other countries.

Where personal information is transferred outside Canada, it may be subject to the laws of those foreign jurisdictions and may be accessible to courts, law enforcement, or governmental authorities in those countries. We take reasonable steps to ensure that such transfers are protected by contractual, technical, and organizational safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information.

7. Storage duration

We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, to meet legal, regulatory, insurance, and accounting obligations, and to resolve disputes or enforce our agreements.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the reason for collection. For example:

When personal information is no longer required, we will securely delete, destroy, or anonymize it in accordance with our retention practices and applicable law.

8. User rights

Subject to applicable law, parents, guardians, and other individuals whose personal information we hold may have the following rights:

To exercise these rights, please contact us using the information below. We may need to verify your identity and may not be able to comply with a request if legal exceptions apply, such as where we must retain information for child safety, legal compliance, or legitimate recordkeeping purposes.

9. Withdrawal of consent

Where our processing is based on consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us. Withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal, and it may not apply where we are required or permitted by law to continue processing without consent.

If you withdraw consent for certain optional uses, some services or features may be limited or unavailable. We will explain the implications of withdrawal where relevant.

10. Right to complain

If you have concerns about how we handle personal information, we encourage you to contact us first so we can address your concern promptly and fairly.

You may also have the right to file a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada or the applicable provincial privacy regulator, depending on the circumstances and the governing law.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information against loss, theft, unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification. These measures may include access controls, secure storage, password protection, staff training, and restricted access to sensitive records.

No method of transmission or storage is completely secure. While we strive to protect personal information, we cannot guarantee absolute security. In the event of a privacy incident involving personal information, we will respond in accordance with applicable legal requirements and notify affected individuals and authorities where required.
