This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store and protect personal information when you visit our website, submit an enquiry form, request admission information or communicate with the School.

As an educational institution, the School may receive personal information relating to children through admission enquiries or school-related processes. We expect parents or lawful guardians to provide information about prospective students where appropriate.

We will handle children's personal information with particular care and obtain verifiable parental consent or other required authorisation where applicable under law. We do not intend to collect children's personal information through general website forms beyond what is reasonably necessary for the stated purpose.

We do not sell personal information to third parties. We may share relevant information where reasonably necessary with:

• Authorised school administrators and personnel handling enquiries or admissions.
• Website hosting providers, form providers, communication services and other service providers supporting the School's operations.
• Government authorities, regulators or other parties where disclosure is required by law or necessary to protect legal rights and security.

Where third-party service providers process personal information on our behalf, we will take appropriate steps to address data protection responsibilities as required by applicable law.

Our website may use cookies or similar technologies to maintain functionality, understand website usage and improve performance. Where analytics or other tracking technologies are used, they may collect technical information about visitors and their interactions with the website.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect some website features. Where required, we will seek consent before using non-essential cookies or tracking technologies.

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, loss or misuse. Access to personal information is limited to authorised persons and service providers who need it for legitimate purposes.

However, no method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, comply with applicable legal requirements, resolve disputes and maintain appropriate records.

Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information and the relevant school or legal requirements.

Subject to applicable law, individuals or their authorised representatives may request access to, correction of or deletion of personal information, or withdraw consent where consent is the applicable basis for processing. Requests may be submitted using the contact details provided below.

We may need to verify the identity and authority of the person making a request before acting on it. Some information may need to be retained where required by law or for legitimate recordkeeping purposes.

Our website may contain links to external websites or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content or security of third-party websites. Visitors should review the privacy policies of those websites before providing personal information.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, website features or applicable legal requirements. The revised version will be published on this page with an updated effective date.
