privacy policy

The Leading Brains Tutoring and its subsidiaries (“The Leading Brains,” “we,” or “us”) respect and value your privacy. As part of our commitment to use the information you share with us responsibly, we want you to be familiar with how we collect, use, and disclose information relating to you, your computer, or your device and that enables your identification (“Personal Information”).


This Privacy and Cookie Notice (this “Notice”) describes how we process Personal Information about you that we collect through each website or application operated and controlled by us from which you are accessing this Notice (the “Site”). This Notice does not apply to information that we collect offline, such as over the telephone or in person. By using the Site, you agree to the terms and conditions of this Notice.


     1. WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT ABOUT YOU?

     

     a. What You Give Us

Some parts of the Site may ask you to submit Personal Information so that you may benefit from the specified features or to participate in an activity. For example, you may voluntarily provide Personal Information to us in the following ways:

  • Tutoring Request Forms: We collect the Personal Information you voluntarily provide when you complete an application form on the Site. This information may include your name, street address, email address, telephone number, employer, the name, birth date, and gender of the child that is applying, and academic information regarding that child.
  • Contact Us Forms: If you contact us, we collect the information that you provide on the “contact us” form available on the Site.
  • An Online Account: We will collect the information that you voluntarily provide us to create username and password.
  • Employment Application: Some areas of the Site may allow you to submit information related to job opportunities with The Leading Brains.


We may combine Personal Information you submit through the Site with other information we have collected from you, whether online or offline. We treat the combined information in accordance with this Notice.


     b. Information from Use of the Site

Through your use of the Site, we may also gather information about your use of the Site that does not identify you directly but may identify your computer or device. Generally, this information is collected through what we refer to herein as “Traffic Data.” We may collect and store such Traffic Data automatically whenever you interact with the Site. For example, we may collect your IP address, the host name of your computer, browser information and reference site domain name every time you use the Site.


We may collect information regarding user traffic patterns and Site usage. This Traffic Data does not, however, contain anything that can personally identify you, though it may identify your computer or device; it is used to analyze and improve the Site, to provide you with a better experience on the Site, and to show you advertisements tailored to you. Please see the section below in this Notice regarding Passive Information Collection for more information about our use of cookies and other technologies.


     c. Sensitive Information


Unless we specifically request or invite it, we ask that you not send or otherwise disclose to us your racial or ethnic origin, political affiliations or opinions, health information, or criminal background. In those cases where we may request or invite you to provide the foregoing information, we will only do so in accordance with the requirements of applicable law. Where you provide us with such information without being requested to do so by The Leading Brains, we reserve the right (but do not have any obligation) to erase such information at our discretion.


     2. HOW DO WE USE THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT FROM YOU?


We use Personal Information submitted by you or otherwise collected through the Site for the purposes described in this Notice and as otherwise described to you at the point of collection. Generally, we use the information you provide for the reason for which it was provided. For example, if you contact us by e-mail, we will use the Personal Information you provide to answer your question or resolve your problem and will respond to the email address from which the contact came. We may also use Personal Information about you as specifically described below:

  • Business Transfers: We may transfer your Personal Information in the event of a business sale, merger, consolidation, change in control, transfer of substantial assets, bankruptcy, liquidation, or reorganization. We may also disclose your Personal Information in the course of due diligence of such a transaction. You acknowledge and agree that any successor to or acquirer of The Leading Brains (or its assets) will continue to have the right to use your Personal Information and other information. Whether the recipient of your Personal Information in these cases will handle your Personal Information pursuant to this Notice will depend on the applicable law and other factors.
  • Legal Requirements: We use and disclose Personal Information as we believe to be necessary or appropriate: (i) under applicable law, including laws outside your country of residence; (ii) to comply with legal process; (iii) to respond to requests from public and government authorities, including public and government authorities outside your country of residence; (iv) to enforce our terms and conditions; (v) to protect our operations or those of any of our affiliates; (vi) to protect our rights, privacy, safety, or property, and/or that of our affiliates, you, or others; and (vii) to allow us to pursue available remedies or limit the damages that we may sustain.

     4. COOKIES AND OTHER PASSIVE COLLECTION TECHNOLOGIES


As you navigate the Site, certain Traffic Data may be passively collected, meaning it is gathered without your actively providing it. This is done using the following technologies in the following ways:

Through your browser: Certain information is collected by most browsers, such as your Media Access Control (MAC) address, computer type and operating system type and version screen resolution, and Internet browser type and version.


Through your device: If you access the Site through a mobile device or other network-connected product, certain information may be collected about that device, including your device type, network service provider, and other identifiers. We may collect unique device identifiers (such as IDFA and AID tags and UUID and UDID identifiers) associated with the devices you use to access the Site.


Using cookies: Cookies are pieces of information stored directly on the computer you are using. Cookies allow us to collect information such as browser type, time spent on the Site, pages visited, and language preferences. We and our service providers use this information for security purposes, to facilitate navigation, display information more effectively, and to personalize your experience while using the Site. More specifically, we use cookies to:

  • recognize your computer or device to make your use of the Site easier, such as to remember your locations of interest and other preferences with the Site;
  • gather statistical information about use of the Site in order to continually improve its design and functionality, understand how individuals use it, and to assist us with resolving questions regarding it;
  • select which of our advertisements or offers are most likely to appeal to you and display them while you are on the Site and on other websites, applications, and online services that you use.


Should you view any embedded YouTube video on the Site, please be aware that YouTube applies its own cookies. For further information regarding their policies, please refer to the Google privacy policy.


Social Media Plug-Ins: We use social media plug-ins from social media networks like Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram, YouTube and Twitter, which are labeled on our Site with the well-known symbols of the respective social network. If you interact with these plug-ins, your activity on the Site will also be made available to those social networks. To understand how those social networks use and disclose your Personal Information, please review the privacy policies available on the websites of those social networks.


Analytic Tools: We also use tools and third-party services to collect information about usage of the Site, including Google Analytics. To learn more please consult the Google privacy policy. Google Analytics collects information on how often users visit the Site, what aspects of the Site they visit when they do so, and what other websites users visited prior to accessing the Site. You may prevent your data from being collected and used by Google Analytics by opting out through the use of the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.


Our Site currently does not respond to “Do Not Track” (DNT) signals and operate as described in this Notice whether a DNT signal is received, as there is no consistent industry standard for compliance.

Although our use of passive collection technologies may change over time as technology evolves, the above descriptions are designed to provide you with additional detail about our current approach to information collected from passive technologies.


     5. SECURITY

We take what we believe to be reasonable steps to protect the Personal Information collected by us from loss, misuse, unauthorized use, access, inadvertent disclosure, alteration, and destruction. However, no network, server, database, or Internet or e-mail transmission is ever fully secure, error-free, or “hacker proof.” Therefore, you should take special care in deciding what information you provide to us. Please keep this in mind when disclosing any Personal Information.


     6. DATA RETENTION

We generally retain Personal Information for so long as it may be relevant to the purposes above, or for longer when required by law. To dispose of Personal Information, we may anonymize it, delete it, or take other appropriate steps. Even if we delete your Personal Information, it may persist on backup or archival media for an additional time period for legal, tax, or regulatory reasons, or for legitimate and lawful business purposes.


     7. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS OF PERSONAL DATA

The Leading Brains is based in the United States. The recipients of the Personal Information disclosures described in the “How We Share Your Personal Information” section above may be located in the United States or elsewhere in the world. Privacy laws in these countries may not provide protections equivalent to those of your country of residence, and your government may or may not deem such protections adequate. Whenever we transfer personal data outside of the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or the UK, we take legally required steps to make sure that the appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your Personal Information.


How You Can Access, Update, Correct, or Delete Your Personal Information


If you would like to submit a data access, correction, restriction, or deletion request, you can do so by contacting us at theleadingbrains@outlook.com and we will process such request with respect to any Personal Information that we are able to link to you individually based on the information that you can provide to us. 


     8. LINKS TO THIRD PARTY SITES

The Site may contain links to other web sites for the convenience of users in locating information or services that may be of interest. If you access a third-party website from a link on the Site, any information you disclose on that website is not subject to this Notice. It is possible that these links may be used by third parties or others to collect personal or other information about you. The Leading Brains is not responsible for the privacy practices of such websites, advertisers, or third parties or the content of such websites. The Leading Brains does not control these third parties’ use of cookies, collection of information, or how they manage such information. It is solely your obligation to review and understand the privacy practices and policies of these other websites, advertisers and any third parties.


     9. UPDATES AND CHANGES TO OUR PRIVACY POLICY

The business and operations of The Leading Brains may change from time to time. As a result, at times it may be necessary for us to make changes to this Notice to reflect changes in the law, our data handling practices, or the features of our services, websites, and apps. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to update or modify this Notice at any time. Modifications to this Notice will be posted here and the new Effective Date will be displayed at the top of this Notice. In certain circumstances, The Leading Brains may, but need not, provide you with additional notice of such modifications, such as via e-mail. Modifications will be effective 30 days following the Effective Date, or such other date as communicated in any other notice to you. Where required by applicable law, we will apply changes only with your consent.

Please review this Notice periodically, and especially before you provide any Personal Information. This Notice was updated on the date indicated above. Your continued participation in our programs, services, and events following the effectiveness of any modifications to this Notice constitutes your acceptance of those modifications. If any modification to this Notice is not acceptable to you, you should cease accessing, browsing, and otherwise utilizing The Leading Brains website, as well as its programs, services, and events.
