Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Ọ́málearn (“we”, “us”, or “our”) provides a teacher-powered learning platform that connects learners, parents and guardians, Teacherpreneurs, and schools. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Because our platform is used by children, we take extra care with the data of minors and rely on parent or guardian consent as described below.

2. Information We Collect

We collect the following categories of information:

• Account information: name, email address, phone number, password, and role (learner, parent/guardian, Teacherpreneur, or school).
• Profile information: date of birth, grade level, subjects, learning goals, location, photo, and biographical details you choose to provide.
• Learner and child information provided by parents, guardians, or schools, including a child’s name, age, and grade.
• Verification information for Teacherpreneurs and schools, such as identification documents, certifications, and references.
• Usage and device information: pages viewed, features used, IP address, browser type, and similar technical data.
• Payment and transaction information processed through our approved payment providers.

3. How We Use Your Information

• To create and manage accounts and profiles.
• To match learners and families with suitable Teacherpreneurs and programmes.
• To operate, maintain, secure, and improve the platform.
• To verify the identity and credentials of educators and institutions.
• To process payments and maintain transaction records.
• To communicate with you about your account, sessions, and support requests.
• To comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service.

4. Children’s Data & Guardian Consent

Ọ́málearn serves a community that includes minors. Where a learner is a minor, a parent, guardian, or authorised school is responsible for providing consent and for the information they share about the child.

We limit the collection of children’s data to what is needed to provide learning services, apply safeguarding standards to accounts involving minors, and do not knowingly use children’s data for advertising.

A parent or guardian may review, update, or request deletion of their child’s information, and may withdraw consent, by contacting us at the address below. If you believe a child has provided us information without appropriate guardian consent, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

5. How We Share Information

We do not sell personal information. We may share information with service providers who help us operate the platform (for example, hosting, payments, and communications), with Teacherpreneurs or schools as needed to deliver a booked service, and where required by law or to protect the safety of our users.

6. Data Security & Retention

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

We retain personal information for as long as needed to provide our services and to meet legal, accounting, or reporting obligations, after which it is deleted or anonymised.

7. Your Rights & Choices

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your personal information, and to object to certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below. You may also manage cookies as described in our Cookie Policy.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be communicated through the platform or by other appropriate means. The “Last updated” date above indicates when this policy was last revised.
