Privacy Policy

OVERVIEW

The General Data Protection Regulation (or GDPR for short) is a positive change towards giving you more control over how your data is used and how you are contacted.

In line with this, we have changed our Privacy Policy. It details how we collect, use, share and store your personal data and financial information. It also provides you with information on the new rights available to you when Data Protection laws change on the 25th May 2018.

In order to operate Worldwide Kids childcare services, Worldwide Kids (“Worldwide Kids”, “our”, “us” or “we”), the data controller & processor, must ask you to provide us with information about yourself and your child/ren. By consenting to, and agreeing to the terms of this Privacy Policy, you expressly consent and agree to us processing your data in the manner set out herein. This Privacy Policy describes the information we collect and how we use that information. Worldwide Kids takes the processing of your information very seriously and will use your information only in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy. For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, the term “information” means any confidential and/or personally identifiable information or other information related to users of Worldwide Kids services.

We do not sell or rent your information to third parties for their marketing purposes without your explicit consent.
Our registered company details are as follows: WK Management Consulting GmbH, Mülibach 3, 8852 Altendorf, Switzerland

You can contact us at any time at hello@worldwide-kids.com and we will reply within 72 hours.

Worldwide Kids may change this policy from time to time by updating this page. This policy is effective from 15/05/2018.
