2. Information you share with us
When you contact us, we receive the details you provide, such as your name, email address, telephone number and message. You may also share a learner’s age, German level, goals or availability so that Studyfreunde can suggest suitable lessons.
Please provide only information needed for your enquiry. Fields marked as required are needed to submit the relevant form. You can also contact us by email or telephone.
3. How we use your information
We use enquiry information to answer questions, discuss suitable lessons, arrange trials and lesson times, and manage our relationship with learners and families. Technical information may be used to maintain and protect the website.
We do not take payments through this website and do not use enquiry details for email marketing.
4. Website forms, hosting and email
The website runs on WordPress and is hosted through Namecheap. Our enquiry forms use MetForm. Form submissions are stored in the website database and notifications are sent to info@studyfreunde.com. Studyfreunde handles enquiries using Google email services.
Our hosting and email providers process information as part of delivering these services. Information may be processed outside Ghana under the providers’ own privacy terms.
5. Google Maps, fonts and external links
The contact page includes an embedded Google Map. Some pages load fonts from Google. When these services load, your browser connects to Google and can share technical details such as your IP address and browser information. Google Maps may also use cookies under Google’s privacy policy.
Links to WhatsApp and Instagram take you to those services when you choose to follow them. Their own privacy policies apply to information you share there.
6. Cookies and analytics
Essential cookies support website functions and remember your privacy choices. With your permission, we use Google Analytics to understand visits, popular pages and how people find Studyfreunde. Analytics can process page addresses, browser and device information, approximate location and cookie identifiers. Google may process this information outside Ghana under Google’s privacy policy.
Analytics only loads after you accept statistics cookies. You can decline and still browse the website or make an enquiry. Use the Manage consent button to change your choice or withdraw permission for future tracking. You can also delete existing cookies in your browser.
Complianz stores your consent preferences in cookies beginning with cmplz_. Google Analytics uses cookies such as _ga and _ga_3JK21BNK6D to distinguish visits. We do not use Analytics for advertising, and automatic form interaction tracking is disabled. Please do not put personal information into website addresses.
7. Information about children
Parents or guardians should make enquiries on behalf of children. Please avoid sending sensitive information about a child through a general enquiry form. If additional information is needed for lessons, Studyfreunde will discuss this with the parent or guardian.
If you have a question about a photograph of your child on the website, please contact Studyfreunde using the details above.
8. Access and storage
Enquiries are accessible to authorised people at Studyfreunde and those who administer the website or email service. Hosting and email providers also process data to operate those services.
Enquiry records are stored in the website database and email system. Please contact us if you would like us to review or remove an enquiry. Some information may need to be retained for ongoing lesson administration, legal obligations or security.
9. Keeping information secure
The website uses HTTPS to encrypt information sent between your browser and the website. Access to administration and email accounts is restricted. No internet service can guarantee complete security, so please do not send passwords, payment card details or other unnecessary sensitive information through an enquiry form.
10. Your choices and rights
You can contact Studyfreunde to ask what personal information we hold about you, request a correction, ask for deletion, or raise an objection about how your information is used. Where processing relies on consent, you can withdraw that consent.
You can also raise a concern with Ghana’s Data Protection Commission. We may need to confirm your identity before responding to a request involving personal information.
11. Changes to this notice
We will update this notice when our services or the way we handle personal information changes. The date above identifies the latest version. Please contact Studyfreunde if anything in this notice is unclear.
