Shorter Children’s Privacy Policy

Effective Date: 10.06.2026

Last Updated: 10.06.2026

1. About This Policy

At Nova Health Therapies, we take children’s privacy seriously. This page explains how we handle information relating to children under 13 where child-related information may be included in a referral, enquiry, intake, or other service-related submission.

2. Our Approach

Our website is not designed for children under 13, and we do not knowingly ask children under 13 to submit personal information through our public website.

If information about a child under 13 is submitted to us, it must be provided by a parent, legal guardian, school, district, or another authorised adult.

3. When This Policy Applies

This policy applies when:

  • a parent or guardian contacts us about services involving a child
  • a school or district submits information relating to a student
  • a referral, intake, enquiry, or support form may include child-related information
  • we otherwise receive information relating to a child under 13 as part of our services

4. What Information We May Receive

In limited situations, we may receive:

  • a child’s name
  • age or date of birth
  • parent or guardian contact details
  • school or service-related information
  • information included in a referral, enquiry, intake, or support request

We only seek to collect information that is reasonably needed for the purpose for which it is provided.

5. How We Use Child-Related Information

If we receive information about a child, we may use it only for proper service-related reasons, such as:

  • responding to a parent, guardian, school, or district enquiry
  • reviewing or coordinating therapy or staffing-related services
  • supporting school or family service requests
  • keeping records needed for service delivery, compliance, or safety
  • meeting legal obligations

We do not use child-related information for unrelated marketing to children.

6. Parental Notice and Consent

Where required by law, we will provide notice and obtain verifiable parental consent before collecting personal information online from a child under 13.

If a form on this website could include information about a child, the person submitting it must be the child’s parent, legal guardian, school, district, or another authorised adult.

7. Parent and Guardian Rights

A parent or legal guardian can contact us to:

  • ask whether we have collected their child’s personal information
  • review the personal information we hold about their child
  • ask us to correct or delete it
  • withdraw consent where consent is the basis for collection
  • ask questions about how the information is used

8. When We May Share Child-Related Information

We do not sell child-related personal information.

We may share child-related information only when reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was provided, including with:

  • schools or school districts involved in the requested service
  • service providers working on our behalf
  • legal, regulatory, or government authorities where required by law
  • other parties where the parent, guardian, school, district, or another authorised adult has directed or authorised us to do so

9. Security and Retention

We use reasonable safeguards to help protect child-related information from unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

We keep child-related information only for as long as reasonably needed for the purpose for which it was collected, to provide services, to meet legal or operational requirements, or as otherwise permitted by law.

10. If Information Is Submitted Without Proper Permission

If we learn that information relating to a child under 13 has been submitted through our website without the required permission or proper authority, we will review the situation and, where appropriate, delete the information or take other necessary steps.
