Privacy Policy

Updated: January 25, 2021

Science School is committed to protecting your privacy. This is the foundation of a safe and trusted community. Our privacy policy outlines what information we collect from you, how we use that information, and what choices you have regarding how and whether we can use your information. Because Science School is a learning environment for all ages, we take additional measures to safeguard children’s privacy, including for children under the age of 13.

Our Policy

Welcome to the website (the “Site”) of Science School, a division of Mott Haven Productions, LLC (“Science School”). Science School is a service that allows adults to enroll in online small-group classes, parents or guardians to enroll students under 18 in online small-group classes, and for teachers to create, publicize, and provide those classes (the “Services”). This Privacy Policy sets forth Science School’s policy with respect to the information collected from visitors and users of the Science School Services.

Science School and its affiliates may use your Personal Data to contact you in the future to tell you about services we believe will be of interest to you. If we do so, each promotional communication we send you will contain instructions permitting you to "opt-out" of receiving future promotional information. In addition, if at any time you wish not to receive any future communications or you wish to have your name deleted from our mailing lists, please contact us at admin@thescienceschool.org.
