What type of information we have
We currently collect and process the following information:
We ask for information which will include your name as parent, or carer and the name of the child you are bringing to our classes, together with their date of birth and any medical details we should be aware of. The details we collect include your home address, email address, contact number and an emergency contact name and number. This is to ensure we can fully provide the service or goods you have requested. All the details you provide are for the sole use of Baby Swimmers and are not transferred to a third party.
How we get the information and why we have it
Most of the personal information we process is provided to us directly by you for one of the following reasons:
We provide our service of swimming classes and may need to contact you by email, phone or text if we have to query any details with you or to advise you of any important changes to your swimming class, a cancellation or rebooking for subsequent terms. We may also ask you for feedback on classes and services. If you attend our classes, we will also contact you to let you know about other products, special offers and services we offer and will let you know when our next photo shoots are taking place and any special offers associated with these too.
We provide an online shop and also take orders over the phone for our products and services. The information we collect will include your name, address and credit or debit card information in order to process your order and send it out to you. Your payment details are input into a specialist third party secure payment gateway. The only details retained by Baby Swimmers are the last 4 digits of your card for reference purposes and to ensure future recurring payments are processed correctly. When payments are made through our online shop this is exclusively through the specialist secure online portal, which Baby Swimmers does not have access to. We do not sell or share this information to others in any way.
