At this time, we collect minimal personal information. This may include:
- Broad user category (e.g. student, teacher, parent)

If in the future we collect identifiable personal data—such as for newsletter subscriptions, course access, or user accounts—we will update this Privacy Policy accordingly and obtain clear consent.

We use information collected to:
- Improve and tailor our content and services
- Understand general user engagement and interests

We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information to third parties.
Cookies
We may use cookies or third-party analytics tools (e.g. Google Analytics) to gather non-identifying data such as:
- Country of access
- Device type
- Most-visited pages
This helps us improve the website experience. You can manage cookies through your browser settings.
Third-Party Links
Our site includes links to external websites (e.g. ethical organisations, video content). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites and encourage you to review their privacy policies.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Children and Young People
Our site is designed for young people, including those under 18. While we do not collect personal details from children at this time, we advise that students under 18 use the site with guidance from a parent, guardian, or teacher, especially when booking mentoring or engaging with interactive tools.
If we offer account creation or data submission in the future, we will implement age-appropriate consent mechanisms and protections.
