This interaction may have taken place through a request for information, an enrolment in the centre or the contracting of services or complementary activity.

What data do we collect and why do we need it?

On the website, depending on your location, we may receive your contact details for different purposes:

• Managing information requests or enrolment and attendance of activities: We do this when you ask us for information about a particular product or service, or when you sign your child up for one of the activities we organise. We collect your name, surname, as well as your basic contact details (email address and telephone number), as well as the student’s details.
• Communication of news and events: We do this when we send you our Newsletter. We collect your name, surname, as well as your basic contact details (email address and telephone number).
