This is an extension to the main Personal Data and Privacy Policy of Immerse Languages Institute. You have trusted us to make safe and quality educational children’s content that family members of all ages can enjoy. Immerse Languages Institute understands how important privacy is to you and your family, which is why we are committed to creating a safe and secure environment that family members could attain useful education information suitable for them. As an educational institution, our goal is to collect only the information about our users and their use of our services that will help us provide the best online experience possible and implement Immerse’s mission. This Privacy Policy, together with the Personal Data and Privacy Policy is in compliance to the Personal Data Privacy Ordinance (“PDPO”), describes how we use, share, and protect information that we collect from you and your child on the site. Parents/guardians are encouraged to familiarise themselves with regards to children online privacy protection. For more information, click here to learn more.
Parental Consent
Our visitors’ privacy is important to us, and we recognise the need to provide additional privacy protection for children on the site. This site is intended for the use of adults 18 years or older. Parents should accompany children who are under the age of 18 when visiting the site. Consistent with the requirements of Data Protection Principles well as privacy laws in other applicable countries, in any instance where we ask for age and determine the user is age 18 or under, those users may either be blocked from the activity or taken through a parental consent process where we will ask for a parent or guardian email address before we collect any personal information from the child. If you believe your child is participating in any activity that collects personal information and you or another parent/guardian have NOT received an email providing notice or seeking your consent, please feel free to contact us at office@imlanguages.com. We will not use parent emails provided for parental consent purposes to market to the parent, unless the parent expressly opted in to email marketing or has separately participated in an activity that allows for such email contact. By using the site, you agree to provide us with accurate information concerning your age or identity if we request it. Again, younger visitors should always check with their parents or guardians before entering information on any website or mobile application and we encourage families to discuss their household guidelines regarding the online sharing of personal information.
Disclosure of Information
If you have submitted your child’s first name and birth date, age, and address as part of your information, this information will be used for possible course registration. We may share information that is collected from you or your child in the following circumstances:
- Authorised third-party service providers. We may share information with our third-party service providers to help us fulfil requests and perform various functions necessary to our educational mission, including usage analytics, data processing, and account management. For example, our service providers may provide to us and analyse on our behalf usage information so that we can identify which of our services are most popular and how they can be improved.
- Business transfers. We may share information in connection with a substantial business transaction, such as the sale of the Services, a merger, consolidation, asset sale, or in the unlikely event of bankruptcy.
- Legal purposes. We may disclose information to respond to subpoenas, court orders, legal process, law enforcement requests, legal claims or government inquiries, and to protect and defend the rights, interests, property, safety, and security of Immerse, our users, or the public.
- With your consent. We otherwise may share your or your child’s information with your consent.
We also may share aggregated or anonymised information with third parties, including to help us develop content and services that we hope you or your child will find of interest or to help these third parties develop their own products and service offerings. Should you wish to opt out in sharing your private information, please write to us at office@imlanguages.com.
Parental Access and Deletion
We endeavour to obtain a parent or legal guardian’s consent before collecting, using, or disclosing personal information from children. Parents or legal guardians may contact us to ask if we have collected their child’s personal information, to review that information, if any, and request that Immerse stop collecting this information and have it deleted. Such requests are subject to Immerse verifying to our satisfaction that the requester is in fact the child’s parent or legal guardian.
