Privacy Policy

Effective Date: November 26, 2025

‍

All Things Science values your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information of families, students, and visitors who interact with our services. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and safeguard information through our website and educational Programs.

This Policy applies to anyone who:

• Visits our website (www.atsclub.org),
• Registers for or participates in one of our STEM enrichment Programs, or
• Otherwise uses or interacts with All Things Science services (collectively referred to as the “All Things Science Services,” or simply “our Services”).

For the purposes of this Policy:

• “All Things Science,” “we,” “our,” or “us” refers to All Things Science and its authorized team members.
• “You” or “your” refers to the parent, legal guardian, or adult user who registers or interacts with our Services.
  “Child” or “children” refers to individuals under the age of 13.

By accessing or using any part of our Services, you agree to the collection, use, and disclosure of your information as outlined in this Privacy Policy.

‍

1. Information We May Collect from You

When you use the All Things Science Services, we may collect certain information that you or your student voluntarily provide. This typically occurs when you:

• Register for a Program
• Complete a form on our website
• Create or manage an account
• Request information or customer support
• Apply for a job or teaching position
• Participate in a survey or promotion
• Submit medical or safety-related details for participation
  
  

Depending on the context, we may ask for the following types of personal information about you and/or your student:

• Contact details: Name, email address, phone number, and mailing address
• Date of birth: Month, day, and year of birth for the student
• Program preferences: Subject interests, location preferences, or grade level
• Payment information: Credit or debit card details, billing address (processed securely through third-party providers)
• Third-party account usernames: Such as Google or school-based learning platforms, if required for login or project use
• Health and safety information: Allergy details, immunization records, medical needs, and participation restrictions

All Things Science does not knowingly collect personal information directly from children. All student data we receive is submitted by a parent or legal guardian during the registration process. If we later discover that a child has submitted personal information without verified parental involvement, we will promptly delete that data in accordance with our policy and applicable laws.

‍

2. Information Collected Automatically

When you use the All Things Science Services, certain technical information may be collected automatically by us or by third-party service providers we rely on to operate our website, manage registrations, or measure engagement. This includes tools for analytics, security, session tracking, and embedded content.

This may include:

• IP address and general location (e.g., city)
• Browser type, operating system, and device type
• Pages visited, buttons clicked, and time spent on site
• Referring website or link
• Whether emails were opened or clicked

We use this information to:

• Improve the performance and usability of our website
• Track engagement with our content
• Help detect and prevent fraudulent activity

Some of these tools may use cookies or similar technologies to gather data. You may be able to manage your preferences through your browser or device settings.

We do not currently respond to ‘Do Not Track’ signals sent by web browsers.

3. Social Media and Third-Party Platforms

All Things Science may engage with you through third-party platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, or other social media services. We may also include social media plug-ins or embedded content (such as videos, posts, or share buttons) on our website or Services.

3.1. Information Collected via Social Media

When you interact with All Things Science content on a third-party site or platform:

• That platform may collect information about your visit and interaction (e.g., likes, comments, or views).

3.2. Logins and Data from Connected Accounts

6. How We Share Information

All Things Science does not sell your or your student’s personal information. We only share data with third parties in limited circumstances where it is necessary to operate our Services, comply with the law, or support essential business functions. We take care to ensure that any third party receiving information treats it securely and only uses it for authorized purposes.

6.1. Parental Rights and Children’s Data

If your child is under the age of 13, we will not disclose their personal information to third parties without verifiable parental consent, unless required by law or in connection with a permitted exception. Parents and guardians may authorize collection and use of information while declining to permit third-party disclosure where legally applicable.

6.2. Legal Requirements and Safety

We may disclose personal information when we believe it is necessary to:

• Comply with a valid legal process or request (e.g., court order, subpoena)
• Respond to claims or allegations, including intellectual property or privacy violations
• Enforce our Terms and Conditions
• Protect the rights, safety, or property of All Things Science, our staff, participants, or others

6.3. Service Providers

We may share limited personal information with trusted third-party service providers that assist us with:

• Payment processing

These partners are authorized to use personal information only as necessary to provide services on our behalf and are contractually required to protect the confidentiality and security of the data they process.

Before submitting additional personal information to one of these providers (e.g., payment details or account creation info), we recommend reviewing their individual privacy policies.

6.4. Business Transitions

During the normal course of business, we may sell or purchase assets. If All Things Science is acquired by or merged with another entity, or if we sell any part of our business or assets, information we have collected about you may be transferred as part of that transaction. In the event of a bankruptcy, reorganization, or similar proceeding, such information may also be considered an asset and transferred to third parties. Should a sale or transfer occur, we will make reasonable efforts to require that the recipient of your information uses it in a manner consistent with this Privacy Policy.

‍

10. Our Commitment to Children’s Privacy

Protecting children’s privacy is a priority at All Things Science. Our Services are intended for general audiences and are primarily designed for use by parents and guardians on behalf of their children. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under the age of 13.

All student-related information is provided to us by a parent or legal guardian for the purpose of enrollment, program coordination, or safety. We do not require or allow children to create accounts or submit personal information directly through our Services.

We comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and rely on the parent or guardian’s consent and authority when collecting, using, or disclosing any information about a child.

If we ever become aware that we have collected personal information directly from a child under 13 without verified parental consent, we will promptly delete such information.

‍

11. Third-Party Hosted Programs

All Things Science may deliver programs in partnership with schools, school districts, or other organizations as an independent contractor. When we operate in this capacity, personal information about students may be collected or processed through the systems and tools provided by the hosting organization.

In such cases, All Things Science uses that information solely to provide the educational services required under our agreement with the host. We do not sell, reuse, or share that information for unrelated purposes.

Any personal information shared with us by the host organization is handled in accordance with our contractual obligations and applicable data protection laws. If you have questions about how your data is used in a specific partner-hosted program, please consult the privacy policy of the hosting organization or contact them directly.

11.1. FERPA Compliance

When partnering with schools or districts, All Things Science may receive or process student information on their behalf. In such cases, we operate as a school official under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and use student data only for authorized educational purposes, consistent with our agreements with the hosting institution.

‍

12. Data Security Commitment

We use reasonable physical, electronic, and administrative safeguards to protect the information we collect through the All Things Science Services. All sensitive data is encrypted during transmission and stored securely.

‍

13. Links to Third-Party Sites and Services

Our Services may occasionally include links to third-party websites, tools, or services that are not operated or controlled by All Things Science. These third parties may have their own privacy policies and terms of use, which we encourage you to review.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or actions of any third-party sites, products, or services. Your use of those third-party offerings is entirely at your discretion and subject to their terms. We assume no responsibility or liability for any content, policies, or practices of such third parties.

All Things Science maintains a policy to suspend or terminate, when appropriate, the accounts of users who have repeatedly engaged in, are reasonably believed to be engaging in, or have been formally accused of engaging in intellectual property violations.

‍

15. Your Credit Card Information and Transactions

All Things Science uses Stripe, a trusted third-party payment processor, to securely handle payment transactions. When you make a payment through our Services, your credit card or banking information is processed directly by Stripe and is not stored or accessible by All Things Science.

Stripe uses industry-standard security practices, including encryption and PCI-compliant protocols, to protect your financial information. Sensitive payment details such as your credit card number and security code are never stored on our servers.

If you have questions about how Stripe handles your payment information, you can review their privacy and security policies at stripe.com/privacy.
