Privacy Notice

We process personal data in accordance with applicable data-protection law and this notice. If you have questions, write to info@happyclasses.ee.

Behaviour and safety rules for the hobby school are in the Hobby School Rules. Related organisations that may run other programmes are listed on the About page.

Who is responsible

  • The controller is Mittetulundusühing Happy Classes Steam (Happy Classes Steam MTÜ), registry code 80631364, Randvere tee 9, Haabneeme, 74001, Estonia, e-mail info@happyclasses.ee, telephone +372 5559 2043.
  • This notice covers the hobby-school service and this website. Related organisations may run other programmes; they may be separate controllers for those programmes.

What data we process

  • Parent data: name, contact details and information needed for billing.
  • Student data: name, date of birth or personal identification code where needed to provide the service, and attendance information.
  • Messages, calls and other communications you send us.

Why we process data

  • to enter into and perform the Educational Services Agreement;
  • to organise teaching and attendance;
  • to communicate with the parent;
  • for invoicing and accounting;
  • to comply with legal obligations;
  • to protect legitimate legal claims;
  • to operate the hobby school safely and effectively.

Legal bases

  • Performance of a contract — where processing is needed to provide the educational service.
  • Legal obligation — for example accounting and duties under education law.
  • Legitimate interest — running the hobby school safely and defending legal claims.
  • Consent — where the law requires separate consent, for example for marketing or publishing photographs.

Who we share data with

  • Only as needed: accounting and IT service providers who process data on our instructions.
  • A debt-collection company, legal adviser, court or other authorised recipient where necessary for establishing, exercising or enforcing our legal claims.
  • Public authorities where the law requires it.

How long we keep data

  • We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purposes above and as required by Estonian accounting and education law.
  • Once those purposes and duties no longer apply, we do not keep the data longer.

Your rights

  • You may have the right to access, rectify, erase or restrict processing, to object, and to data portability, to the extent applicable law allows.
  • Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect processing that already took place.
  • You may lodge a complaint with the Estonian Data Protection Inspectorate (www.aki.ee).

Photographs, video and marketing

  • We ask for separate consent for marketing communications and for publishing photographs or videos, where the law requires it.
  • This consent is not a condition for receiving educational services unless it is objectively necessary for the particular service.
  • You can withdraw consent by writing to info@happyclasses.ee.
