Privacy policy

Who we are

Newton's Tutoring is a tutoring centre at 10 Lormel Gate Unit 3, Brampton, Ontario, Canada. This privacy policy describes how we handle information collected through this website (newtonstutoring.com). For information collected during in-person tutoring or assessment sessions, our enrollment agreement governs the relationship.

What we collect

When you submit a form on this site (assessment booking, contact, or newsletter signup), we collect the information you choose to share. That can include your name, email address, phone number, your child's grade, the subjects you are interested in, your preferred contact method, and any notes you add.

We also collect anonymous, privacy-friendly performance data through Vercel Analytics. This is page-view counts and Web Vitals like load speed. It does not use cookies, does not track individuals, and does not include personal information.

How we use it

We use the information you share for one purpose: to follow up on your inquiry and arrange tutoring services. That means a member of our team may reply by email, call you, or send a calendar invite for a free assessment.

We do not use your information for marketing automation, retargeting, or behavioural advertising.

Where it is stored

Form submissions are stored in two places:

• A private Google Sheets workbook owned by Newton's Tutoring (for our internal tracking).
• An email inbox we control, sent through Resend (a transactional email provider).

The website itself is hosted on Vercel. All three providers are industry-standard services with appropriate security practices.

Cookies

This website does not use marketing cookies, retargeting pixels, or third-party trackers. The analytics tool we use (Vercel Analytics) is cookieless by design. The only client-side storage you may see is technical (e.g., your browser may cache static assets to load the site faster on a return visit).

Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or share your information with third parties for advertising or any other commercial purpose. We may share your information only when required by Canadian law (for example, in response to a lawful subpoena), and we will tell you when we do unless legally prevented from doing so.

Your rights

Under Canadian privacy law (PIPEDA), you have the right to:

• Request a copy of the information we hold about you.
• Request that we correct inaccurate information.
• Request that we delete your information.
• Withdraw consent for future communications at any time.

To exercise any of these, email info@newtonstutoring.com. We will respond within 30 days.

Children's privacy

We collect minimal information about children, only what is necessary to provide tutoring services (typically grade and subject). Children do not interact with our website forms directly; a parent or guardian submits the form on their behalf. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through this website.

Changes to this policy

If our privacy practices change in a meaningful way, we will update this page and update the "Last updated" date at the top. Material changes will also be communicated to current families directly.
