Our legitimate interests

Health information is more sensitive. We use it only to look after a child's safety and wellbeing, and we limit who can see it.

Children's information, photos and videos

Many of our members are under 13, so we deal mainly with their parents or carers. We take extra care with children's information, and we never ask a child to give us their details directly.

  • Who signs up: a parent or carer must complete sign-up forms and give any permissions on a child's behalf.

  • Photos and videos: we only use images of a child on our website, social media and in adverts if a parent or carer has given written consent. This includes consent for paid advertising, which we ask for separately.

  • No names: we do not name or tag children in posts, and we do not publish a child's school.

  • Withdrawing consent: a parent or carer can withdraw consent at any time by contacting us. We will remove the photo or video from our channels as soon as we can. Content already shared by others, or already shown as an advert, may take longer to disappear.

  • Safeguarding: we keep attendance, accident and safeguarding records, and we may share information with the right authorities where the law requires it or a child's safety is at risk.

Who we share information with

We share information only with people and companies that help us run the business, and only what they need. We never sell it.

Why

Where the law requires it, or a child's safety is at risk

Some of these companies handle information outside the UK. Where they do, we rely on safeguards that UK law accepts, such as approved contract terms.

How long we keep information

We keep information only as long as we need it for the reasons above, then delete it or make it anonymous. Choose the periods in square brackets before you publish.
