Your family's data, handled with care
Plain-language explanation of what we collect, why, and the rights you and your child have.
Last updated: February 2026
1. Who we are
AI First Club (“we”, “us”, “our”) is an education program teaching young people aged 10–17 to think, create, and build with AI. We are currently in a pre-launch phase, collecting expressions of interest from families through our waitlist and free open lessons.
For any question about your data, you can reach us at [email protected].
2. What we collect
We only ask for what we need to contact you and prepare a good first experience for your child:
- Parent or guardian name and email address.
- Child's first name and age.
- Optional messaging contact (Telegram or WhatsApp) if you choose to share it instead of email only.
- Your reasons for joining, an optional project idea, and — for open lessons — the main question you'd like us to cover.
- City and timezone, so we can schedule sessions sensibly.
We do not ask for sensitive information, and we never require more than the fields marked as required.
3. Children's data & parental consent
Our program is for children, so protecting their data is central to how we work. Sign-ups are made by a parent or guardian, and we ask for explicit, opt-in consent before collecting any details — the consent box is never pre-ticked.
By submitting the form, the parent or guardian confirms they have the authority to share their child's information. We aim to meet the standards of children's privacy frameworks including the EU/UK GDPR (including Article 8 on children's consent), the US Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), and Russian Federal Law No. 152-FZ. A parent or guardian can withdraw consent or ask us to delete their child's data at any time.
4. How we use your data
- To contact you about early access, open lessons, and program updates.
- To personalise your child's first lesson using the interests or project idea you share.
- To organise groups, schedules, and session reminders.
We do not sell your data, and we do not use children's personal data to train AI models.
5. Our legal basis
Where the GDPR applies, we rely on your consent as the legal basis for processing. You may withdraw that consent at any time, which will not affect processing that already took place. Where other laws apply, we rely on the equivalent consent-based grounds.
6. Where your data is stored
Your data is stored securely with our hosting and infrastructure providers. As we finalise operations, we will confirm storage locations and, where required by law — including data-localisation rules under Russian Federal Law No. 152-FZ — arrange for data of residents to be recorded on servers within the relevant jurisdiction. Please contact us if you have specific requirements.
7. How long we keep it
We keep waitlist and open-lesson details only as long as needed to follow up with you about the program, or until you ask us to delete them. When information is no longer needed, we remove it.
9. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you or your child.
- Correct data that is inaccurate or incomplete.
- Delete your data (“right to be forgotten”).
- Withdraw consent at any time.
- Object to or restrict how we use your data.
- Request a copy of your data in a portable format.
To exercise any of these rights, email [email protected]. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.
10. Changes to this policy
As we move from pre-launch to enrollment, this policy will be reviewed and updated. When we make meaningful changes, we will update the date at the top and, where appropriate, let you know directly.
