We are Worldly Tutors, trading as DP Math Tutor. We respect your privacy and private life, but sometimes we need your Personal Data.
We consider Personal Data to be any information relating to an identified or identifiable person, in conformity with the General Data Protection Regulation (the GDPR).
This policy explains which Personal Data we use and why (the Privacy Policy). Furthermore, you will read how we process, store and protect your Personal Data. Finally, we outline what rights you have when we process your Personal Data.
This Privacy Policy applies to our Website www.dpmathtutor.com (the Website) and the services or products we provide (the Services). We process your Personal Data in accordance with the GDPR and all other relevant legislation and regulations in the field of protection of Personal Data, like Dutch Telecommunications Act (Telecommunicatiewet) regarding the use of cookies (the Relevant Legislation).
Are you under the age of 16?
If you are younger than 16 years old, you need permission from your parents or legal guardian to use our Website and Services.
Processing of Personal Data
In order to provide you with our Website and Services, we process your Personal Data.
How do we receive your Personal Data?
We receive Personal Data directly from you when you:
- fill in a form on our Website (scheduling a first lesson, getting in touch, or the newsletter and downloads);
- use the chatbot on our Website (enrolling, or asking us a question);
- book a free chat through our booking calendar (Calendly); or
- email us or register for lessons.
We also receive a small amount of technical data from your browser when you use our Website, for example your IP address, the page you were on, and the campaign or link that brought you to us.
Who is the controller of your Personal Data?
We are the controller of your Personal Data within the meaning of the Relevant Legislation. At the end of this Policy, you can find our contact details.
What Personal Data do we process, for which specified purpose(s), and on which legal basis?
We need some of your Personal Data in order for you to use our Website and Services.
We are allowed to process your Personal Data, because we comply with the Relevant Legislation. We lawfully process your Personal Data because we:
- Have legal bases for processing your Personal Data;
- Inform you about the processing; and
- Only process data for specific purposes, and no more than is necessary for that.
In the table below you will read (1) which Personal Data we process (2) for which purpose(s) and (3) on which legal basis.
We shall only use your Personal Data for the following purposes or for compatible purposes. By doing so, we will not use your Personal Data in an unexpected manner.
| (Personal) Data | Purpose(s) | Legal basis |

Information about your child
If you are a parent or guardian, you may tell us about your child, for example their name, school, year and how they are getting on with math. A free-text box in our forms and chatbot asks whether there is any other important information about your child that we should know.
This is optional. You do not have to answer it. If you choose to tell us something sensitive, for example about your child’s health, a learning difficulty or a learning support plan, you give us your explicit consent to use it to match your child with the right tutor and to teach them well. We do not use it for marketing and we do not put it in the confirmation email we send you. You can withdraw your consent at any time by emailing us, and we will delete this information.
Newsletter and marketing
We only send you our newsletter if you tick the box to say you want it. Signing up to the newsletter, or downloading a resource, requires that tick. Booking a lesson, getting in touch or sending us a question through the chatbot does not sign you up for marketing.
You can unsubscribe at any time, using the link at the bottom of every email, or by emailing us. We then keep only your email address on a list of people we must not email, so we do not email you by mistake.
Are you obliged to share your Personal Data with us?
In some cases, the processing of your Personal Data is necessary. This is relevant, for example, when we have to process your Personal Data in order to oblige to a contract with you or to provide a service to you. Without your Personal Data, we cannot provide our Service to you.
How do we secure your Personal Data?
We prioritize the security of your Personal Data and implement robust measures to safeguard it against loss, destruction, unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. We ensure that only authorized personnel can access your data. Our security practices include:
- Secure Network Connections: We utilize Transport Layer Security (TLS), Secure Socket Layer (SSL), and other encryption technologies to protect data during transmission.
- Strict Access Controls: Only authorized administrators within Worldly Tutors have access to stored data, ensuring it is handled responsibly and securely.
- Data Encryption: Personal Data is encrypted both in transit and at rest, adding an additional layer of protection against unauthorized access.
- Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): We implement MFA for administrator access to prevent unauthorized logins and enhance account security.
- Secure Data Storage: All recorded sessions and Personal Data are stored on reputable, third-party platforms with industry-standard security protocols.
- Automated System Monitoring: Our systems are continuously monitored for suspicious activities, with real-time alerts in place to detect and mitigate security threats.
We regularly review and refine these security measures to ensure your Personal Data remains protected and accessible only when necessary.

Recordings
At DP Math Tutor, we are committed to providing high-quality tutoring services and maintaining transparency in our interactions. To ensure the best possible learning experience and uphold our standards, all tutoring sessions are recorded. These recordings serve two purposes: first, to support quality control and continuous improvement of our services, and second, to provide an objective record in the event of any disputes between the client and the company. Recordings are securely stored for 90 days on Lessonspace, our third-party platform provider, and are accessible only to administrators within DP Math Tutor. By using our services, clients acknowledge and consent to the recording and storage of their tutoring sessions in accordance with this policy.
Cookies
A cookie is a small text file that can be sent via the server of a website to the browser. The browser saves this file to your computer. Your computer is tagged with a unique number, which enables our site to recognize that computer in the future.
Our Website needs a little browser storage to work: it remembers your cookie choice and, if you use the chatbot, the conversation so far so you can carry on where you left off. This stays on your device.
Other cookies are optional. When you first visit, a banner asks you to Accept or Reject. If you press Accept, we load Google Tag Manager, which runs our website statistics tools and can set cookies. If you press Reject, or do not choose, these are not loaded. You can change your choice at any time with the settings icon at the bottom left of any page.
You can always delete or disable cookies yourself via the browser settings. However, please note that without cookies, our Website may not function as well as it should.
Other provisions
Transfer
Our database is in the European Economic Area (EEA), in Ireland. Some of our providers, for example Cloudflare, Google, Calendly, Stripe, Teachworks and QuickBooks, may process your Personal Data outside the EEA. We only do so where the country provides an adequate level of protection, for example under an EU adequacy decision such as the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, or where the provider has appropriate safeguards in place, such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.
We shall never transfer your Personal Data to other countries or to other parties than those mentioned above without your permission.
Websites of third parties
Our website may contain links to other websites. We are not responsible for the content or the privacy protection on these websites. Therefore, we advise you to always read the privacy policy of those websites.
