4. Who we share it with
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only when needed with:
- our instructors and staff, so they can deliver your lessons;
- service providers who help us run the business, such as payment processors, email and hosting providers, who may only use the data to provide their service to us; and

5. Cookies
Our website uses cookies to make pages work properly and to understand how visitors use the site. You can control or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how parts of the website work.
6. How long we keep it
We keep personal information only as long as we need it for the purposes above, or as long as the law requires (for example for financial and course records). After that we delete it or make it anonymous.
7. Keeping it safe
We use reasonable physical, technical and organizational safeguards to protect your information against loss, misuse and unauthorized access. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Your choices and rights
Under Canadian privacy law you may ask to see the personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or withdraw your consent to certain uses. To make a request, contact us using the details below. We may need to confirm your identity first.
