KidStrong Privacy Policy
Last updated: January 23, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how KidStrong Inc. and its affiliates and franchisees (collectively "KidStrong," "we," "us," or "our") collect, disclose, and use personal information. This Privacy Policy applies to personal information we collect online, including via our websites, mobile applications, and other online platforms or services (collectively "Online Services"), or any other product or service where this Privacy Policy is displayed, and offline, including our physical locations and centers, and programs and events operated by or in partnership with us.
Depending on your relationship with us and/or the service(s) you obtain from us, a separate or additional privacy policy may be provided and apply to you. For purposes of this Privacy Policy, the term "personal information" has the same meaning as the equivalent term defined under applicable laws and does not include certain types of information, such as publicly available information or de-identified information.
Where required by law, we provide notice at or before the point of collection, including a description of the categories of personal information collected and the purposes for which they will be used.
We encourage you to read this Privacy Policy carefully and review it regularly for any updates to better understand how we handle your personal information.

How We Collect and Use Your Personal Information
We typically collect personal information directly from you, including via cookies or other tracking technologies, but we may also collect information about you from our business partners, vendors, or other third parties. We use this information consistent with this Privacy Policy to:

How We Protect and Retain Your Personal Information
We use reasonable security measures that are designed to protect your personal information; however, no system of transmission or storage of data can be 100% secure and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your information. We retain your personal information for as long as is reasonably necessary to fulfill the purpose(s) for which it was collected or as otherwise required to be retained under applicable law.
What Personal Information We Collect
We may collect the following categories of personal information from and about you:

Characteristics of protected classifications

Commercial information
Records of personal property, products or services purchased, obtained, or considered, or other purchasing or consuming histories or tendencies, membership information, and transaction information.
Internet or other electronic network activity information

Payment method information, transaction details, and billing information. We do not store full payment card information; payment processing is handled by third-party payment processors as described below.
Photos, video, and audio (including recordings at our centers)
We may collect photographs, videos, or audio recordings that you submit to us (for example, for profiles, assessments, progress tracking, support requests, or marketing content with your consent) or that are captured in connection with participation in KidStrong classes and activities.
KidStrong centers may use video—and, where permitted by law, audio—recording systems to record classes or portions of classes for purposes such as internal training, quality assurance, safety, incident investigation, and program improvement. We provide notice of recording in our centers (for example, through signage). By attending or participating in KidStrong classes or activities, you understand that you and your child may be recorded, and where consent is required by law, we will obtain such consent.
These recordings are protected using reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards. We do not sell class recordings or use them for advertising or marketing without your separate consent. We do not share class recordings with third parties except (a) with service providers that help us securely store, manage, or review recordings on our behalf under contractual confidentiality and security obligations, (b) as required by law, or (c) to protect the safety of participants.
We retain class recordings for a limited period consistent with the purposes described above, unless a longer retention period is required for safety, legal compliance, dispute resolution, or incident investigation.
We do not intentionally collect biometric identifiers (such as faceprints or voiceprints) unless we provide a separate notice and obtain any consent required by law.
Geolocation data
General location information may be derived from your device, browser, or IP address (for example, to help us understand general service areas, improve site functionality, and comply with fraud-prevention and security requirements). We do not collect or use precise geolocation for advertising purposes.

Sensitive personal information may include government-issued identifiers, account login information combined with required access credentials, precise geolocation data, racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, health information, genetic data, and the contents of private communications.
We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information for purposes other than those permitted by applicable law, such as to provide requested services, ensure security and integrity, prevent fraud, and comply with law.

How We Protect Your Child's Privacy
Your child's privacy is extremely important to us. KidStrong provides science-based developmental fitness programs for children ages 1–11 through our age-appropriate curriculum tracks. We are committed to operating our Services in compliance with all applicable state and federal laws that protect the privacy of children's personal information, including the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).
Our Online Services are intended for parents and guardians. Children under 18 years old may not use our Online Services directly, and we do not knowingly allow children under 18 to create accounts or submit personal information through our Online Services. We may, however, collect personal information about a child under the age of 18 from a parent or guardian for the purpose of providing our youth developmental fitness programs.
For children under 13 years of age
If we ever collect personal information online directly from children under 13 (for example, through a child-directed feature), we will comply with COPPA requirements, including:
- Parental Consent: We obtain verifiable parental consent before collecting, using, or disclosing personal information from children under 13
- Limited Collection: We only collect personal information that is reasonably necessary for the child's participation in our developmental fitness programs
- Restricted Disclosure: We do not disclose children's personal information to third parties except as permitted by COPPA or with additional parental consent
- Parental Rights: Parents have the right to review, delete, and control their child's personal information
Parents have the following rights regarding their child's information
- Review the personal information we have collected about their child
- Request deletion of their child's personal information
- Refuse to allow further collection or use of their child's information
- Withdraw consent at any time
If you believe that a child under the age of 18 has submitted personal information to us, or if you wish to exercise your rights regarding your child's information, please contact us using the information provided in the Contact Us section below so that we can delete the information or take other appropriate action.

Global Privacy Control (GPC)
You may enable the Global Privacy Control (GPC) to exercise your opt-out rights, which is a tool that communicates your opt-out preferences if your browser or browser extension supports such a signal. The GPC may apply only to a single browser or device, and you may need to turn on the GPC signal for each browser that you use.
Where required by applicable law, we process GPC signals as a request to opt out of certain forms of data sharing or targeted advertising for that browser or device.
How to Opt Out of Targeted Advertising / Sale or Sharing (California)
You may opt out of targeted advertising and (for California residents) the "sale" or "sharing" of your personal information by contacting us at privacy@kidstrong.com with the subject line "Do Not Sell or Share Request." Where required by applicable law, we also process Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals as a request to opt out for that browser or device.
To exercise your privacy rights
Please submit a request by emailing us at privacy@kidstrong.com.
If available, you may also submit a request using our online request form accessible through our Online Services.
To exercise your right to know, correct, and delete personal information, you will need to submit a verifiable request, and we may request additional information to verify your identity before we can respond to your request.
You may designate an authorized agent to submit privacy rights requests on your behalf. Authorized agents will be required to provide proof of their authority to act on your behalf by providing relevant documentation. We may contact you to confirm an authorized agent's representation and to verify your identity.
Appeals
If we deny your request, you may have the right to appeal our decision. To appeal, please contact us at privacy@kidstrong.com with the subject line "Privacy Appeal."
Depending on where you live, you may also have the right to file a complaint with your state Attorney General or other regulator.
