I respect your privacy and am committed to protecting your personal information. This privacy policy explains how I collect and use information when you visit this website or contact me about tuition and learning support.

Who I am

This website is operated by Cathy McCallum, an independent teacher and tutor based in Glasgow.

If you have any questions about this privacy policy or how your personal information is handled, you can contact me at:

Email:help@msmccallum.co.uk

When you contact me

If you contact me by email or text message, I may receive personal information such as your:

• name

• email address or telephone number

• child's name and age, if you choose to provide them

• information about your child's education, learning needs or circumstances that you choose to include in your enquiry

• any other information you choose to provide

I use this information to respond to your enquiry, discuss the support I may be able to provide and, where appropriate, arrange an initial consultation.

Please only provide information that is reasonably necessary for your initial enquiry. More detailed information can be discussed with me directly if we decide to explore support further.

I will not use the information you provide in an enquiry to send you marketing emails or messages unless you have specifically agreed to receive them.

Cookies and website information

This website is hosted by Squarespace. Squarespace may process limited technical information about visitors in order to provide, secure and operate the website and provide website analytics.

This website uses cookies and similar technologies. Some cookies are necessary for the website to operate correctly. Non-essential cookies are restricted unless you choose to accept them.

When you visit the website, you can choose whether to accept non-essential cookies. You can also change your cookie preferences later using the Cookie Preferences option on the website.

I have not added third-party advertising trackers such as Meta Pixel or Google Analytics to this website.

How long I keep information

I keep personal information only for as long as it is reasonably needed for the purpose for which it was collected, or where I need to retain it for legal, safeguarding, insurance or other legitimate reasons.

If you become a client, I may need to collect and retain additional information about you and your child. Further information about how I handle this information will be provided as part of the process of working together.

Sharing your information

I do not sell your personal information.

I may use trusted service providers where necessary to operate my website, email and other business services. These providers may process information on my behalf.

I may also disclose information where I am legally required to do so or where this is necessary in connection with safeguarding or the protection of a child or young person.

Your data protection rights

Under UK data protection law, you have rights relating to your personal information. Depending on the circumstances, these may include the right to ask for access to your information, to have inaccurate information corrected, or to ask for information to be deleted.

If you have a question or concern about information I hold about you, please contact me at help@msmccallum.co.uk.

You also have the right to raise a concern with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's data protection regulator.
