This Privacy Policy ("Privacy Policy") reflects our commitment to protecting personal data and the choices we offer you regarding how your data is used. We welcome you to read more about how we keep your information safe, as well as how you can exercise your rights.

By using the website or services, you confirm that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy which governs the use of algorithmics.school website and our Platform on alg.academy domain.

You may decide not to give us "discretionary" Personal Data. However, please remember that without it, we may not be able to provide you with the full scope of our administrations or with the best customer experience when utilising our services.

What personal information do we collect from the people who visit our website?

The personal information that we collect depends on the context of your interactions with us and the services, the choices you make, and the products and features you use.

Henceforth, our primary acquisition and processing of Customer personal data encompass two principal categories: (1) instances where Customers furnish us with their personal information, including that of their children, and (2) scenarios wherein Algorithmics receives supplementary data directly from Customers and or course participants under specific, circumscribed circumstances and subsequently incorporates it into the Platform.

When you create an account and use the services, including through a third-party platform, we collect any data you provide directly, including:

• Account Data: To use certain features (like paid or unpaid services), you need to create a user account. When you create or update your account, we collect and store the data you provide, like your email address, password, and name, and assign you a unique identifying number ("Account Data").
• Personal Data: Personal Data is information that can be used to identify you specifically, including your names, phone numbers, email addresses, usernames, passwords, billing addresses, and mailing addresses. You consent to give us this information by providing it to us voluntarily on our website. Your decision to disclose this data is entirely voluntary. You are under no obligation to provide this information, but your refusal may prevent you from accessing certain benefits from our website.
• Minors' Data:

Algorithmics acknowledges and may collect various categories of personal data pertaining to course participants who are typically children and teens from 7 to 17 years old. This includes information explicitly provided by Customers, such as the child's name, gender, age, contact phone number, contact email address, and any other relevant details shared with us. Additionally, data is obtained during and after the use of our services, encompassing specifics related to the participant’s individual progress, pages viewed, features utilized, error reports, links clicked, and other applications employed on the participant's device. Algorithmics may also initiate direct contact with the Customers in limited instances, receiving feedback regarding the Platform, services, and compliance with Algorithmics' standards and policies.

In accordance with our commitment to privacy and data protection, Algorithmics ensures the responsible handling and processing of participants' personal data, maintaining compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Customers are encouraged to review our privacy policy for comprehensive information on the collection, use, and protection of participant's data within the Algorithmics platform.
