Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and other tracking technologies (such as pixels/web beacons) to collect and store information about your interactions with our website, including information about your browsing behavior. Our website also supports third-party cookies placed by our service providers and advertising partners.
Cookies are small files that a website transfers to your device through a web browser that enable the site’s or a third party’s systems to recognize your device and capture and remember certain information. Web beacons (also known as tracking pixels) are tiny graphics embedded invisibly on a webpage or in an email that may be used to deliver or communicate with cookies, to count users who have visited certain pages, and to understand usage patterns. In general, our website uses cookies and other tracking technologies as follows:
• Collecting information about how visitors use the website (for example, which pages they visit, which links they use, and how long they stay on each page)
• To optimize the functionality of our website, including by personalizing content for you, greeting you by name, pre-filling forms for you, and remembering your preferences (e.g., your choice of language or location)
• Personalizing a visitor’s experience when they use the website
• For purposes of ad targeting and marketing. These cookies collect information about your browsing behavior on our website to show you relevant advertising when you visit other websites or use social media.
• For analytics purposes. For example, to help us understand how our website is used, to see what products most interest you, and determine how best to market our products to you. More information on website analytics is provided below.
Cookies vary in how long they last. “Session cookies” terminate shortly after you terminate your internet session. “Persistent cookies” are stored on your device until a set expiration date. We use both session cookies and persistent cookies on our website.
If you do not want to have cookies placed on your device, you should set your browser to refuse cookies before accessing our website. Please review your browser’s Help menu for instructions or visit www.allaboutcookies.org for more information. Please note that, if you disable all cookies, some features of our website may not function properly.
Website Analytics
Our website uses analytics technology, including Google Analytics, to support the operation and performance of our online Services and to analyze your interactions and experiences with our Services, including the features you engage with, how you navigate, and your clicks, cursor movement, and scrolling activity; and general information about website traffic data, performance, and related statistics. You may exercise choices regarding the use of cookies from Google Analytics by going to https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout or downloading the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Targeted Advertisements
Our Services collect information about you in order to target advertisements to you when you browse the internet or use social media. For example, we use the Facebook Pixel and Google Ads to provide you relevant targeted advertisements on other websites. You may visit Facebook’s and Google’s websites to learn more about each platform’s advertising practices and options you may have to manage how they collect and use your personal information. You can manage advertising preferences for some of the external parties we work with to serve advertising across the internet by utilizing the choices at http://www.aboutads.info/choices/. Additional options for opting-out of interest-based advertising can be found at https://optout.networkadvertising.org/?c=1.

Social Features and Our Services
Certain features on our Services permit interactions that you initiate between our Services and certain third-party services, such as third-party social networks (“Social Features”). Examples of Social Features include: enabling you to send content such as contacts and photos between our Services and a third-party service; “liking” or “sharing” our content; logging into our Services using your third-party service account; and otherwise connecting our Services to a third-party service (e.g., to pull or push information to or from our services). If you use Social Features, information you post or provide access to may be publicly displayed on our services or by the third-party service that you use. Similarly, if you post information on a third-party service that references us (e.g., by using a hashtag associated with us or our affiliates in a tweet or status update), your post may be used on or in connection with our Services or otherwise by us and/or our affiliates. Also, both we and the third party may have access to certain information about you, and your use of our Services and any third-party service.
Do Not Track
Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference signal that users can set in some web browsers, allowing users to opt out of tracking by websites and online services. Currently, our websites do not respond to DNT signals.
Disclosure of Personal Information
We may disclose your information to external parties in certain circumstances and for specific purposes, as described below.
• Related Companies and Brands, and Our Franchisees. We may provide your information to our parent, subsidiary, and affiliate companies in connection with the operation of our business. This information may be used to contact you with information or offers they believe will be of interest to you. We may also provide your information to our independently owned franchises to facilitate the provision of the Services and to send you information and promotional materials you have requested from or about such franchisee or their services.
• Business or Corporate Partners. We may partner with another organization (for example, another business that offers related services) that wishes to receive your personal information. For example, when you sign up a participant for an activity, you may have the option to disclose personal information to an organization. In such circumstances we may disclose your personal information and the participant’s personal information to the identified business or corporate partner. Participation in an activity does not require that you consent to have your or the participant’s personal information disclosed to a business or corporate partner. In addition, an activity may be sponsored by a business or corporate partner that is featured at the activity or on our Services (a “Title Sponsor”). Your personal information and the personal information of the participant may be disclosed to a Title Sponsor when you register a participant for an activity subject to the sponsorship of a particular Title Sponsor.
• Service Providers. We disclose personal information to our service providers in order for them to provide their services to us. For example, we may share your personal information with vendors that assist us with providing customer service, operating and improving our Services, processing payments, performing auditing and quality control, communicating with you on our behalf, and otherwise operating our business.
• Advertising Partners and other Third Parties. We may share personal information with third parties for marketing and advertising purposes, to improve our products and services, or to provide you with other products and services that may interest you. For example, we disclose personal information to our advertising partners for the purpose of ad targeting, remarketing, and customized advertising content.
Compliance with Law or Protection of Rights. We may disclose personal information as necessary, for the following purposes: (a) to comply with any legal process; (b) to respond to requests from public and government authorities; (c) to enforce our terms and conditions; (d) to protect our operations and protect our rights, privacy, safety or property, and/or that of you or others; and (e) to allow us to pursue available remedies or limit damages that we may sustain.
Business Transactions. We may disclose personal information to third parties in connection with or during negotiations of any reorganization, acquisition, merger, sale, joint venture, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or any portion of our business, assets, or stock (including in connection with any bankruptcy or similar proceeding).
How We Protect the Security of Personal Information
We use appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security that is reasonable and appropriate to the risk of the personal information we hold. While we attempt to ensure the integrity and security of personal information, we cannot guarantee that our security measures will prevent third parties from illegally obtaining access to personal information. We do not represent or warrant that personal information about you will be protected against, loss, misuse, or alteration by third parties. Any transmission of personal information through the Services is at your own risk, and we are not responsible for circumvention of our security measures.
How We Protect Your Child’s Privacy
Your child’s privacy is important to us. As a result, we endeavor to operate our Services in compliance with all applicable state and federal laws that protect the privacy of children’s personal information.
Our online Services are intended for parents and are not intended for individuals under the age of 18. Children under 18 years old may not use our online Services, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18 years of age. We may, however, collect personal information about a child under the age of 18 from a parent or guardian. If you believe that a child under the age of 18 has submitted personal information to us, please contact us in any manner described in the Contact Us section below so that we can delete the information or take other appropriate action.

You may unsubscribe from our marketing email communications by clicking the “unsubscribe” link found in every commercial email we send, or by sending a request to unsubscribe to us using the contact information provided below. If you opt-out of our marketing email communications, we may still send you email messages related to your account or purchases with us.

California Privacy Policy
This Privacy Notice for California residents (“California Privacy Notice”) supplements the information contained in the AquaSafe Swim School Privacy Policy and the Privacy Policy of its parent, Youth Enrichment Brands, LLC. AquaSafe Swim School, which is part of the Youth Enrichment Brands portfolio of companies (“we,” “us,” or “our”) has adopted this California Privacy Notice pursuant to the California Consumer Privacy Act, and its associated regulations (“CCPA”). Any terms defined in the CCPA have the same meaning when used in this California Privacy Notice.
Privacy Information for Nevada Residents
Nevada residents may opt-out of the “sale” of “covered information” to third parties, including but not limited to name, address, social security number, telephone number, email address, and other information through which a person may be contacted. Our uses of your personal information are not sales under Nevada law. If you have any questions or if you would like to receive notice by email in the event we should engage in “sales” of personal information under Nevada law in the future, please contact us using the contact information provided below.
