Privacy Policy

Information we collect

We collect only the information we need to respond to you and run our classes:

• Enquiry details — when you submit our enquiry form, we collect your name, phone or WhatsApp number, the art form you are interested in, your preferred location, and any message you choose to send.
• Enrolment details — if you join the school, we collect the student and guardian details needed for admission, attendance, scheduling, and fee records.
• Communications — messages you send us by WhatsApp, email, or phone.
• Basic technical data — standard server logs (such as approximate location and browser type) needed to keep the website secure and running. We use only essential cookies and do not run third-party advertising or analytics trackers.

How we use your information

We rely on your consent, and on the legitimate need to provide the services you have asked for, as the basis for processing your data.

• To respond to your enquiry and arrange a trial class.
• To manage admissions, attendance, scheduling, and class communication.
• To process fee payments and send fee and class reminders.
• To share school news, events, and updates relevant to you.
• To keep our website and records secure and to meet our legal obligations.

How we share information

We do not sell your personal data. We share it only where necessary:

• With trusted service providers who help us operate — for example our website host, secure database provider, email or messaging provider, and (once enabled) our online payment processor. They may use your data only to provide their service to us.
• Where required by law, or to protect the safety, rights, or property of our students, staff, or school.

Where your data is stored and how we protect it

Your information is stored in a secure, access-controlled database. We apply reasonable technical and organisational safeguards to protect it, and access to enrolment and enquiry records is limited to authorised school staff.

How long we keep it

We keep enquiry information only as long as needed to follow up with you, after which it is archived. Student records are kept for the duration of enrolment and for any further period required to meet legal, accounting, or safeguarding obligations.

Children's privacy

Many of our students are minors. Where a student is a child, we collect and process their information with the consent of a parent or guardian, and only for the purpose of running their classes.

Your rights

Under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, you may ask us to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you;
• Correct or update inaccurate information;
• Erase your data where it is no longer needed;
• Withdraw a consent you previously gave.

Cookies

We use only the essential cookies required for the website to function and stay secure. We do not use cookies for advertising or third-party tracking.

Links to other sites

Our website may link to external sites such as YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, or a payment page. This policy does not cover those sites; please review their own privacy policies.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be available on this page, with the 'Last updated' date revised accordingly. To make a request or raise a concern, contact us using the details below — we will respond within a reasonable time.
