Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Talent Academy ("we", "our", or "us") offers a space for personal development that brings together educational approaches, psychological insights and intuitive practices to support children, teenagers and their families in exploring purpose, confidence and self-understanding.

We respect your privacy and are committed to handling personal information responsibly. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it and the choices available to you when you use our website and related educational services based on the 4D model.

By using our services you acknowledge this policy. We encourage you to read it carefully.

2. Who We Are

Talent Academy operates under the brand of a self-employed individual: Soloveva Svetlana Viktorovna, TIN (INN): 616483767197. She acts as the data controller for the personal information described in this policy. Talent Academy is not a separate legal entity and has no employees. Services are delivered through independent specialists who work on a contractor basis and remain responsible for their own professional conduct.

We may collect the following categories of information:

• Contact and identification details you choose to provide (name, email address, phone number, age of the child or teenager, and any other information submitted through forms or correspondence)
• Technical and usage data (IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, time spent on pages)
• Cookies and similar technologies used to support website functionality and understand how the site is used
• Records of communications with us (emails, messages and notes related to sessions or enquiries)

4. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for purposes that include:

• Delivering and improving the Services you request
• Communicating with you about your enquiries, bookings and the Services
• Processing payments and related transactions
• Sending service-related or marketing communications where you have given appropriate consent
• Understanding usage patterns in order to improve the website and user experience
• Meeting applicable legal obligations

5. Data Sharing

We may share information with:

• Service providers who help operate the website and deliver the Services (for example payment processors, email platforms and analytics tools)
• The independent specialist with whom you book a session, to the extent necessary for that specialist to provide the session
• Competent authorities when required by applicable law, court order or legitimate governmental request

We do not sell personal information to third parties for their own marketing purposes. Information is used only in connection with providing and improving the Services.

6. Data Security

We apply reasonable technical and organisational measures appropriate to the nature of the information we handle. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure. You acknowledge the inherent risks of transmitting information online.

7. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Services, maintain business records and meet legal obligations. You may request deletion of your data; such requests will be handled in accordance with applicable requirements and any legitimate retention needs.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your place of residence you may have certain rights in relation to your personal data. These may include the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict processing, object to processing, request data portability and withdraw consent where processing is based on consent. Where the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or similar legislation applies, those rights are available to you.

9. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to support essential website functions, understand usage and, where consent is given, for analytics or marketing purposes. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings; disabling certain cookies may affect site functionality.

10. Third-Party Links

The website may contain links to external sites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites. We encourage you to review their policies before providing information.

11. Information Relating to Minors

Our Services are intended for families. Information concerning a child or teenager is provided by a parent or legal guardian, who remains responsible for that decision. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from a minor without the involvement of a parent or guardian.

14. Limitation

To the extent permitted by applicable law, we are not liable for unauthorised access to or misuse of information that occurs despite reasonable measures, or for consequences arising from your own disclosure of information to third parties. This does not affect any liability that cannot be excluded under mandatory data-protection rules.
