Last Updated: September 19, 2026

The Driftwood Learning Club (“DLC,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) respects the privacy of the families and students we serve. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use and protect it, and the choices parents and legal guardians have regarding their family’s information.

The Driftwood Learning Club provides online tutoring, educational resources, learning activities, and related services for children and their families.

1. Information We Collect

When a parent or legal guardian enrolls a child in The Driftwood Learning Club, we may collect information including:

Information relevant to tutoring and educational support

Tutoring participation, assignments, progress, and related educational information

We ask parents to provide only information that is reasonably necessary for their child's participation and educational support.

We do not sell children's personal information.

3. Information About Children

The Driftwood Learning Club is designed to serve children and families. Parents or legal guardians are responsible for enrolling students and providing student information.

For children under 13, we seek parental or legal guardian involvement and consent before collecting, using, or disclosing personal information where required by applicable law.

Parents and guardians may contact us to:

Review personal information we maintain about their child

Request corrections to their child's information

Request deletion of their child's personal information

Withdraw consent for further collection or use of their child's personal information

Withdrawal of consent or deletion of information may affect our ability to continue providing certain tutoring or membership services.

The FTC specifically recognizes these continuing parental rights under COPPA.

4. Student Email Addresses and Accounts

Some students may have their own email address or online account used to access tutoring sessions, educational resources, or The Driftwood Learning Club community.

Parents should provide a student's email address only when they authorize the student to use it for participation in The Driftwood Learning Club.

We do not require a student to have their own email address unless it is reasonably necessary for a particular service or activity.

5. Sharing Information

We may share information with service providers that help us operate The Driftwood Learning Club, such as providers of:

Website and membership technology

Online community services

Video conferencing

Email and communications

Scheduling

Payment processing

Forms and record management

Educational tools and resources

We share information only as reasonably necessary to provide or operate these services.

We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect the safety of a student or another person, or to protect the rights and security of The Driftwood Learning Club.

We do not sell or rent student information to advertisers.

6. Third-Party Services

The Driftwood Learning Club uses third-party technology and online services to deliver tutoring and manage memberships.

Those providers may process information according to their own privacy practices and contractual obligations.

We take reasonable steps when selecting services that handle student and family information and limit the information shared to what is reasonably necessary for the service being provided.

7. Data Security

We take reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect personal information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

However, no internet-based system or method of electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

The FTC requires covered operators to maintain reasonable procedures to protect the confidentiality, security, and integrity of children's personal information and to take reasonable steps regarding service providers that receive that information.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide tutoring and membership services, maintain appropriate educational and business records, meet legal obligations, and resolve disputes.

When children's personal information is no longer reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, we will take reasonable steps to securely delete or de-identify it.

The FTC specifically states that children's personal information should not be retained indefinitely merely because it might be useful later.

9. Parent and Guardian Rights

A parent or legal guardian may contact us regarding personal information associated with their child.

Subject to applicable law, parents may request that we:

Provide access to information maintained about their child

Correct inaccurate information

Delete their child's personal information

Stop further collection or use of their child's personal information

We may take reasonable steps to verify that the person making the request is the student's parent or legal guardian before providing access to or deleting a child's information.

10. Payments

Payments and subscriptions may be processed through third-party payment processors.

The Driftwood Learning Club does not need to directly store complete payment-card information when payments are processed by those providers. Payment processors maintain payment information according to their own privacy and security practices.

11. Communications

Parents and guardians may receive emails or other communications related to:

Membership

Tutoring sessions

Scheduling

Student progress

Educational resources

Important service announcements

Other Driftwood Learning Club activities

Marketing communications may include an option to unsubscribe where required. Certain operational communications may still be necessary while a membership or tutoring relationship remains active.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as our services, technology, or legal obligations change.

When we make material changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date and may provide additional notice to families when appropriate.
