Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 18, 2026
Kids Academy of Learning & Excellence (“KALE,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a program of the CORE Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit our website or contact us through it.
1. Who we are
KALE / CORE Foundation, 601 Southlake Blvd, North Chesterfield, VA 23236. Phone: 804-877-8785. Email: Spark@kidsacademyCORE.org.
2. Information we collect
- Information you provide: When you submit a form (tour request, newsletter signup, contact, or job application), we collect details such as your name, email address, phone number, your child’s age group, scheduling preferences, employment-related information, and any message you choose to share.
- Information collected automatically: Like most websites, we may automatically collect limited technical information such as your device type, browser, IP address, pages viewed, and general usage, including through cookies and similar technologies.
3. How we use your information
We use it to respond to your inquiries and requests; schedule and confirm tours and interviews; process and follow up on enrollment and employment interest; send updates, newsletters, and marketing communications where permitted; operate, improve, and secure our website; and comply with legal obligations.
4. Email and text (SMS) communications
With your consent, we may contact you by email and text message (SMS) — for example, to follow up on a tour request, application, or newsletter signup. Message and data rates may apply. You can opt out of marketing emails using the unsubscribe link, and opt out of text messages by replying STOP. Consent to receive marketing messages is not a condition of any service.
5. How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with service providers who help us operate the site and communicate with you (for example, our customer-relationship and messaging platform and analytics providers), who may use it only to provide services to us; and as required by law or to protect our rights, safety, or the safety of others.
6. Cookies and analytics
We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the site, remember preferences, and understand how the site is used. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling some may affect site functionality.
7. Data retention
We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described here or as required by law, then delete or de-identify it.
8. Security
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Children’s privacy
Our website is intended for parents, guardians, and adults — not for use by children. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information through the site, please contact us and we will delete it.
10. Your choices and rights
You may request to access, correct, or delete your personal information, or opt out of marketing communications, by contacting us above. Depending on where you live (including Virginia residents under the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act), you may have additional rights regarding your personal data; we honor applicable rights requests.
11. Third-party links
Our site may link to third-party websites or services we do not control. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date shows when it was last revised.
