What Kind of Data Do We Collect and How Do We Use it?

Depending on the various sections of our website, your data will be collected and used differently.

Let’s go into each type of data and explain how it may be used.

  • Name: So we know who we're working with and talking to when we send out emails, etc.
  • Contact info (Number/Email): So we can send you reminders and newsletters, etc (if you opt-in).

  • Financial info (Credit/Debit card): So you can pay monthly subscriptions easily without having to re-enter your details each time you wish to purchase.

We wouldn't usually share your information, however in positions where your information may need to be shared without your consent, the person with your data (either us or a tutor) must need a good enough reason to do so, for example – sharing the information will enhance the safety of your child. When decisions are made to share or withhold information, practitioners should record who has been given the information and why.

You can read more on data and safeguarding here.

How Storing Your Data Works

First off, as we've mentioned we don't store your data without reason, nor do we hold it for longer than necessary. Your data will only be held in the UK on our secure servers and will be governed by laws of England and Wales.

If we do begin to store data outside the UK, we will take reasonable steps to prioritise the security of your data.

Does Your Data Need to Be Shared?

Long story short, no your data doesn't need to be shared.

However, we may need to share it as previously mentioned when we have a good reason to do so, like enhancing the safety of your child or any other reason required by law.

Another reason why we may need to share your data is if we have a contract with a third party who may need your personal data for the same reason we do (or whatever reason they may have). Before we do that, we will notify all users prior to this engagement.

Do You Have Access to Your Own Data?

Yup, you have the full right to ask for a copy of all the data we have stored about you. If this is something that you’d like to get your hands on, send us an email at support@knowled.gg.

So what do they do & how do they actually work?

But the main reason we use cookies is for personalisation. With cookies, we know what interests you so we can show you things that would benefit you over something you have no interest in. Be it tips on supporting your child's education or updates on products you've purchased.
