This Privacy Policy applies to Children’s Choice Childcare
(referred to hereinafter as “Children’s Choice Childcare”, "we",
"our" and/or "us"), our social media platforms, booking

that you care how information about you is used and shared, and we appreciate
your expectation that we will do so carefully and sensibly.
By visiting this or another Children’s Choice Childcare website displaying this
Privacy Policy or a link thereto (a "Website", or collectively the
“Websites”), or by otherwise interacting with Children’s Choice Childcare you
agree to accept the practices described in this Privacy Policy. This Privacy
Policy is further subject to the Children’s Choice Childcare Terms and
Conditions related to the Children’s Choice Childcare services you utilise

Children’s Choice Childcare values your privacy and is dedicated to protecting
your personal information and providing you with notice about what personally
identifiable information we collect and how it is used, what choices you have
regarding the collection, use and distribution of that information, the
security procedures we implement to protect that information and what access

from you.
What Information Is Collected
We receive and store any information you enter on our Websites or give us in
any other way, such as via telephone, electronic mail, online or otherwise. For
example, this information may be collected when you contact us for customer
support.
Here are the types of information we gather:
Contact Information: We collect and retain personal contact information that
you submit to us voluntarily and this includes, but is not limited to, your
name, mailing address, telephone number, and e-mail address. This information
may include your full name, mailing address, phone number, and email address.
Such contact information may be used, for example, to communicate with you when
necessary with respect to transactions. Additionally, we may collect contact
information provided to us during any correspondence relating to customer
support, as well as in connection with products and services offered on our
Websites.
Financial Information: We collect and retain certain financial information from
when you purchase our products and services. For example, when you sign up for
any other product or service through Children’s Choice Childcare, we may require
you to provide a credit card number and billing address before we will process
that application. We will not sell, share or rent any financial information
collected from you except as disclosed in this Privacy Policy or as necessary
to fulfil any order for our products or services.
Demographic Information: We may collect and store anonymous demographic
information (such as your postcode, gender and age), and use this data to
tailor your experience on our Websites, provide content that we think you might
be interested in, perform general improvements to the Websites, and display the
content according to your preferences. Such demographic information may be
shared with partners, market researchers and other third parties on an
aggregate, non-personally identifiable basis. No personally identifiable
information will be linked to such aggregated demographic information that is
shared with third parties.
Other Information: We collect and store certain types of information whenever
you interact with us. For example, our servers track the type of web browser
you are using and the page from which you link. Additionally, we log IP
addresses (a unique number assigned to every computer on the Internet) in order
to improve security, analyse trends and administer the Websites. We may track
your movement within the Websites, the third-party website pages from which you
were referred, access times and browser types. We use this information to gauge
the effectiveness of our Websites, track information for statistical purposes
and to improve the products and services we provide. We collect this
information to better develop a sense of what services our customers need and
identify areas of improvement to the Websites. We may use such information for
marketing purposes, and to send information to you that we believe might be of
interest. In addition, such information may be shared with partners, market
researchers and other third parties on an aggregate, non-personally
identifiable basis. No personally identifiable information will be linked to
such aggregated information shared with third parties.
We may supplement the information you provide us by acquiring publicly or
commercially available information as available in the public domain or from
third parties, for instance, to verify your address or to update your
information and to create a profile of your preferences. We tie your personally
identifiable information to information in the profile, in order to improve the
content of the Websites for you or to inform you about products or services
that we think will be of interest to you. From time to time, we may also ask
you to participate in surveys or other communications conducted by us or third
parties designed to help us improve the Websites or the products or services we
provide.
Cookies: The Websites use “cookies” such purposes as enhancing your online
experience by making it easier for you to navigate through the Websites and
making certain features work better. Cookies are text files which are commonly
deposited by websites on a user's hard drive when the user visits a website.
The file identifies a user's computer and can record the user's preferences and
other data about the user's website visit. We do not extract information about
individual users during this process. Your web browser may enable you to
disable cookies, but please note that certain services may not function
correctly without it and your experience on our Websites may be hindered.
Third Party Cookies: We may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads
on our behalf across the Internet. These companies may collect and use
information about your visits to this and other websites and your interaction
with our products and services in order to provide advertisements about goods
and services of interest to you. However, no personally identifiable
information (such as your name, address, email address or telephone number)
will be connected with such information. They may use information about your
visits to this and other websites to target advertisements for goods and
services and may be used to keep track of user response to each advertisement.
These targeted advertisements may appear on our Websites or on other sites that
you visit. The anonymous information is collected through the use of a pixel
tag or cookies, which are industry standard technologies used by most major
websites. If you do not want such companies to collect this information you may
opt-out.
To learn more about the use of this information or choose not to have this
information used by certain third-party advertising partners, please visit the
Network Advertising Initiative at http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices.
Please note that if you delete your cookies, use a different browser, or buy a
new computer, you will need to renew your opt-out choice.
Web Beacons: The Websites may contain electronic images (called a
"single-pixel GIF" or a "web beacon") that allow a website
to track the effectiveness of marketing campaigns. No personally identifiable
information will be transmitted via web beacons.
How Personal Information Is Used
Our Use: We receive and store any personal information you enter on our
Websites or give to us voluntarily in any other way and may use it to contact
you from time to time. We take steps designed to ensure that only the employees
who need access to your personal information to fulfil their employment duties
will have access to it. By registering on a Website you are agreeing to email
marketing. We may send you information
or offers from time to time to the postal address or email address we have on
file (as further outlined in this Privacy Policy). You further acknowledge that
you are not required to agree directly or indirectly or enter into an agreement
regarding our telemarketing efforts as a condition of purchasing any goods or
services from us or our affiliates.
Electronic Mail: From time to time, Children’s Choice Childcare may use your
personal information to contact you by electronic mail concerning our services.
These communications are often intended to inform you of important information
regarding your account, or about general services provided by Children’s Choice
Childcare and/or its affiliates. If you do not want to receive email from us or
our affiliates regarding new services, please email us requesting to
unsubscribe. However, in order to fulfil our service obligations to you, we
will continue to send you emails regarding your account administration, as well
as any necessary information, such as renewal notices and instructions. By
providing us with your email address you consent to receiving communications
from us electronically and all notices, disclosures and other communications
that we provide to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such
communications be in writing.
Service Related Uses: We may use your personal information to contact you about
the goods or services you have purchased from us, or for other purposes in
which you have expressed an interest, for example, if you have contacted
customer service or made an enquiry. We will also provide you with service and
account related announcements. For instance, if the delivery of a service or
product is delayed we might send you an email, or other message, or if there is
some service issue with something you might have ordered. Generally, you may
not opt-out of these communications, which are not promotional in nature. If
you do not wish to receive them, you have the option to cancel your services
with us.
Protection of Children’s Choice Childcare and Others: We may release account
and other personal information when we are required to do so by law, court
order, subpoena or other government or law enforcement authority or regulatory
agency, including ICANN, in order to enforce or apply our Services Agreement or
other agreements, or when we believe in good faith that disclosing this
information is necessary or advisable, including for example, to protect the
rights, property, or safety of Children’s Choice Childcare, our users, or
others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and
organisations for fraud protection, credit risk reduction or other similar
purposes. Sites Other Than Children’s Choice Childcare, Children’s Choice
Childcare has no control over and is not responsible for the privacy policies
or information gathering practices of other websites, including those to which
we may link and those which may link to us. We strongly recommend that you
review the privacy policies of every online service you use before submitting
any personal information and direct any concerns to the site administrator of
that website.
How Long We Keep Your Personal Data
We keep information only for as long as we need it to provide you services,
manage our business or as required by law or contract. Where you have a
contract with us, we will retain your data for the length of the contract, and
will further retain that information for a time period consistent with our
legal or regulatory responsibilities, after you terminate all your services
with us to resolve disputes, enforce our relevant Service Agreement, and to
adhere to the technical and legal requirements and constraints related to the
security, integrity and operation of the Sites. If you have any questions about
how long we will keep your specific data, please contact us.
How We Keep Your Personal Data Safe
We work to protect the security of your financial information during
transmission by using passwords and Norton Security. Please see KidsClubHQ privacy policy for
details on financial transactions. Please note that no method of transmission
over the Internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure and we
cannot guarantee its absolute security. You can further help to ensure your
security by taking a few simple precautions. For instance, it is important to protect
against unauthorised access to your computer, and to be sure to sign off when
you are finished using a shared computer.
Limitation Of Liability
Children’s Choice Childcare assumes no responsibility or liability with regard
to any theft, loss, alteration or misuse of personal or other information
lawfully provided by Children’s Choice Childcare to third parties, or with
