3. Children's Privacy

ArtSea Corner provides creative activities for children, but our website's booking, registration, and contact features are intended for use by parents, legal guardians, and other authorized adults.

Children under 13 should not independently submit personal information through our website.

Parents and guardians are responsible for providing information necessary for their children's participation.

We take reasonable steps to limit the collection and disclosure of children's personal information and to obtain parental consent where required.

If we learn that personal information has been collected directly online from a child in violation of applicable law, we will take appropriate steps to delete it or obtain legally sufficient parental authorization.

Parents or legal guardians may contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of their child's personal information, subject to applicable legal requirements and permitted exceptions.

4. Photography, Video, and Creative Work

ArtSea Corner may photograph or record activities, projects, and special moments during classes, camps, workshops, and events.

These materials may be used for educational documentation, sharing with participating families, and, where separately authorized, promotional and marketing purposes.

Promotional use of identifiable children's photographs, videos, names, voices, or likenesses requires appropriate written permission from a parent or legal guardian.

When permission is granted, authorized materials may be displayed or shared through:

• The ArtSea Corner website and online galleries

• Official social media accounts, including Instagram and Facebook

• Digital advertisements, including social media and search advertising

• Printed promotional materials, brochures, and other business communications

• Other promotional channels expressly covered by the applicable consent

Photo and video consent is voluntary and is not a condition of participating in regular classes.

Parents and guardians may decline promotional photography without affecting their child's eligibility to participate.

ArtSea Corner will make reasonable efforts to respect photography restrictions communicated by parents or guardians.

Consent may be withdrawn for future use by contacting artseacorner@gmail.com. Upon receiving a verified withdrawal request, we will discontinue new promotional uses covered by the withdrawal and take reasonable steps to remove applicable materials from channels under our direct control.

We cannot guarantee removal of previously distributed printed materials, third-party reposts, cached copies, or content retained independently by third-party platforms.

We do not intentionally publish children's full names together with identifying photographs without additional appropriate authorization.

5. Booking and Payment Processing

Our website uses Wix and associated booking and payment services to manage registrations, appointments, subscriptions, and transactions.

When you make a booking or payment, information may be processed by Wix and the applicable payment service provider.

Payment card information is handled through the relevant payment processor, subject to its security procedures and privacy practices.

We may retain transaction details, payment confirmations, and booking records for legitimate business, accounting, customer service, and legal purposes.

We do not independently store complete payment card numbers in our ordinary business records.

6. Cookies and Website Analytics

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to support essential website functions, remember visitor preferences, analyze website performance, and measure advertising effectiveness.

These technologies may be provided by Wix and other services integrated into our website.

Where required by applicable law, visitors will be offered appropriate choices regarding non-essential cookies or tracking technologies.

Visitors may also manage certain cookie preferences through their browser settings.

7. Sharing Information With Third Parties

We may share information with trusted service providers when reasonably necessary to operate our business, including website hosting providers, booking platforms, payment processors, communication services, and technical support providers.

We may also disclose information:

• When required by applicable law, court order, or lawful government request

• When reasonably necessary to protect the safety of children or others

• To investigate suspected fraud, misuse, or unlawful activity

• In connection with a legitimate business transfer, subject to applicable legal requirements

We do not sell or rent parent or child contact lists to third parties.

Where personal information is shared with service providers, we seek to limit disclosure to appropriate business purposes.

8. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures appropriate to the nature of the information we handle.

These may include restricting access to personal information, using reputable service providers, and limiting unnecessary collection or retention.

However, no website, electronic communication, or data storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, ArtSea Corner does not guarantee absolute security against unauthorized access, system failures, or other events beyond its reasonable control.

9. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, including providing services, maintaining business records, resolving disputes, and meeting legal obligations.

Information that is no longer reasonably necessary will be deleted, de-identified, or securely disposed of as appropriate.

Photographs and videos will be retained according to applicable consent permissions, operational needs, and lawful retention requirements.

Depending on applicable law, parents, guardians, and other individuals may have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information.

You may also:

• Update your contact information

• Opt out of optional promotional communications

• Request withdrawal of photography and video consent for future uses

• Ask questions about how information is collected or handled

Certain information may need to be retained where permitted or required by law.

11. Third-Party Websites and Social Media

Our website may contain links to external websites and social media platforms.

These services operate under their own privacy policies, terms, and data handling practices.

ArtSea Corner is not responsible for the independent privacy practices or content of third-party websites and platforms.
