Data encryption in transit and at rest

Access controls and authentication procedures
Regular security assessments and staff training

While we strive to protect your personal information, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, while we endeavour to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

We ensure that adequate safeguards are in place to protect your data, including standard contractual clauses or other legally approved mechanisms.

We only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. The retention period may vary depending on the type of data and applicable legal requirements.

9. Children's Privacy and Data Practices Regarding Minors

Our services are not directed to children under the age of 13 (or a higher age threshold where required by law). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children without verifiable parental consent. If we become aware that we have collected personal data from a minor without appropriate consent, we will take steps to delete that information promptly. Parents or guardians who believe that their child has provided us with personal information should contact us at contact@gamingeducator.com.

For users aged 13-18, we encourage parental involvement and may request limited data strictly necessary for the use of educational services and in accordance with legal requirements.
