Papa Bear Daycare (“we,” “our,” or “us”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you interact with us, including through our SMS messaging program.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect the following information when you use our website, enroll your child, contact us, or participate in our SMS program:

• Parent/guardian name, child’s name, phone number, email address, home address, and emergency contact details.
• Information you voluntarily share with us in messages, enrollment forms, or incident reports (e.g., medical or dietary needs).
• Billing information for tuition and fee processing.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

• Provide daily childcare updates, attendance notifications, center closures, and appointment scheduling texts.
• Respond to inquiries, process enrollment, and deliver requested services.

• Maintain compliance with state childcare licensing requirements and applicable laws.

3. Data Sharing Restrictions

We do not share your personal or mobile information with third parties for promotional or marketing purposes.

Data sharing is limited strictly to business purposes (billing, licensing, health/safety) or as required by law.

4. Security & Non-Transfer Commitment

We do not sell, rent, or transfer your personal information to external organizations under any circumstances. We implement strict access controls – only authorized childcare staff and administrators can access your data – and maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to prevent unauthorized sharing or misuse.
