Fall 2026 enrollment is open — classes start September 1

Privacy Policy

Last updated 8 August 2026

We ask families for more than most websites do — a child's date of birth, their allergies, sometimes a medical note. We ask because we cannot look after a child safely without it, and this page explains exactly what happens to it afterwards.

The short version: we use family information to run the classes you enrol in and to reach you about them. We do not sell it, we do not trade it, and we do not use children's details for advertising. Photos are covered in section 5, and you can opt out of them at any time without giving a reason.

1. Who we are

This site and AI & Robotics Academy are operated by RPY LLC, a Washington limited liability company, at 14040 NE 8th St Unit 302A, Bellevue, WA 98007. “We”, “us” and “our” mean RPY LLC.

This policy covers aiarobo.com, our enrolment and payment flow, and the parent communications that follow. It applies to information about parents and guardians, and to information about children that parents give us.

2. What we collect

Almost all of it comes directly from you at enrolment.

  • About you: name, email, mobile number, billing address, and an emergency contact's name and number.
  • About your child: first and last name, date of birth, and anything you tell us about allergies, medication or needs we should know about. Date of birth is used to group children by age — nothing else.
  • Enrolment records: what you booked, when it runs, care add-ons, your signed waiver, its version, and the date and IP address it was signed from. We keep the IP address because a signature with no record of when and where it was given is not worth much to either of us.
  • Payment: handled entirely by Stripe. We never see or store your card number. We receive the amount, the date, and the last four digits.
  • Site usage: ordinary server logs — IP address, browser, pages visited, timestamps — kept briefly for security and troubleshooting.

We do not buy family information from anyone, and we do not build profiles of children.

3. Children's information

Children do not create accounts with us and we do not collect information from children directly. Everything we hold about a child was given to us by their parent or guardian during enrolment.

Instructors see only what they need for the sessions they teach: the child's name, age band, allergies, and any note you have added. A child's information is never used for marketing, never used to target advertising, and never disclosed to another family.

If you want to see, correct or delete what we hold about your child, email info@aiarobo.com and we will action it within 30 days.

4. Health information

Allergy and medical notes are consumer health data under Washington's My Health My Data Act. This section is our health-data notice.

What we collect: only what you choose to tell us in the allergy and medical fields at enrolment, plus any update you send us later.

Why: a single purpose — keeping your child safe during a session. We serve snacks daily, we run hands-on activities, and staff need to know before something happens rather than after.

Who sees it: the instructors and site staff responsible for your child's session, and the administrators who maintain our systems. Nobody else.

What we never do: we do not sell health information, we do not share it with advertisers or data brokers, and we do not use it to decide what to market to you. We will not disclose it to anyone outside our staff without your written authorisation, except where the law requires it or where a medical emergency makes it necessary to treat your child.

Your rights: you may ask us to confirm what health information we hold, who we have shared it with, and to delete it. Email info@aiarobo.com with “Health data request” in the subject. We respond within 45 days. Deleting allergy information may mean we can no longer safely accept your child into a session, and we will tell you if that is the case rather than quietly proceeding.

5. Photos and video

Photographs matter to us — they are how families see what their child actually did — and they are also the part of this policy families care most about. We run three tiers, and you control which one applies to your child.

Tier 1 — Inside the class (default)

Photos of activities shared with the families of that class, through class updates and the parent portal. By enrolling you agree to your child appearing in these. They are for personal family use — please do not repost another family's child publicly.

Tier 2 — Public marketing (only if you opt in)

Our website and social media. We prefer photographs that do not identify anyone — hands, robots, backs of heads. A photograph in which your child is recognisable is only used publicly if you ticked the marketing opt-in at enrolment — it is unticked by default and it is the only optional box on the form. Withdraw it at any time by emailing us.

Tier 3 — No photographs at all

Some families need their child out of every frame, including class updates. Tell us — in writing, by email, or by asking any instructor for the opt-out form at either campus — and your child is issued a privacy wristband so every member of staff knows at a glance. No explanation needed, and it changes nothing about the class itself.

Withdrawing consent stops future use immediately. We will also remove existing images from our website and our own social media on request. We cannot claw back something already reshared by someone else, which is the honest limit of any such promise.

We never publish a child's full name alongside their photograph, and we never publish the name of a child's school.

6. How we use it

  • Running the sessions you booked, including safety and supervision
  • Taking payment and issuing receipts
  • Emailing you about your enrolment — confirmations, schedules, closures, changes
  • Answering you when you get in touch
  • Meeting our legal, tax and insurance obligations
  • Improving our programs, using aggregate information that does not identify a child

We send marketing email only to parents who have asked for it, and every one has an unsubscribe link. Emails about a class you are enrolled in are not marketing and continue regardless.

7. Who we share it with

We do not sell personal information, and we never have. We share it only with the services that make the site work, each bound to use it solely on our instructions:

  • Stripe — payments and payment records
  • Purelymail — sending email
  • Hostinger and Supabase — hosting and the database

We will also disclose information where the law requires it, or where it is necessary to protect a child from harm.

8. How long we keep it

  • Enrolment and waiver records — while your child attends, and then for as long as a claim could still be brought. Because a child's own claim in Washington runs until three years after their eighteenth birthday, this can be a long time, and it protects both of us.
  • Allergy and medical notes — deleted within 12 months of your child's last session, unless they are part of an incident record.
  • Payment records — seven years, for tax.
  • Server logs — around 30 days.

9. Security

Family information sits in an access-controlled database. Records containing children's details are readable only by signed-in staff — never by the public site. Traffic is encrypted. Card numbers never reach our servers.

No system is perfectly secure. If a breach ever affects your family's information, we will tell you and the Washington Attorney General as the law requires, and we will tell you what actually happened rather than the least alarming version of it.

10. Your choices

  • See what we hold about you or your child
  • Correct anything wrong
  • Delete it, where we are not legally required to keep it
  • Withdraw photo consent, at any time, without giving a reason
  • Unsubscribe from marketing while still receiving class emails
  • Ask for a copy in a portable format

Email info@aiarobo.com. We do not charge for any of this, and we will not make you explain why.

11. Cookies

We use the minimum: a cookie remembering which campus you chose, and one keeping your cart between visits. No advertising cookies and no cross-site tracking. Blocking cookies in your browser will not stop you using the site, though the cart will forget itself.

12. Changes

If we change this policy in a way that materially affects families, we will email you rather than quietly reposting the page. The date at the top always reflects the current version.
