Celebrating Character & Championing Success of All Children

Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 2026


Who We Are

Let’s Thrive is an education programme created and operated by Baasit Siddiqui trading as Siddiqui Education LTD (“we”, “us”, “our”).

We are the data controller for the personal information collected through this website and our programmes. This means we decide how and why your personal data is used.

We are registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK’s independent authority for data protection. You can verify our registration at https://ico.org.uk/ESDWebPages/Search.


What This Policy Covers

This Privacy Policy explains:

  • What personal information we collect and why
  • How we use it and who we share it with
  • How long we keep it
  • Your rights and how to exercise them

It applies to all visitors to letsthrive.digital and anyone who engages with our programmes, services, or communications.

We comply with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA 2018), and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR). Where our services are accessed by or relate to children, we also follow the ICO’s Children’s Code (Age Appropriate Design Code).


The Information We Collect

1. Enquiry and Discovery Call Information

When you complete our Discovery Call request form (hosted via Google Forms), we collect:

  • Your name
  • Your email address
  • Your school, college, organisation, or company name
  • Your role or job title
  • A phone number (if provided)
  • Any information you choose to include about your enquiry or needs

Why we collect this: To respond to your enquiry, arrange a discovery call, and explore how Let’s Thrive can support your setting.

Legal basis: Legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) UK GDPR) — it is in both your interest and ours to respond to a request you have initiated. We will also rely on this basis to follow up on your enquiry within a reasonable period if we have not heard from you.


2. Email Marketing and Newsletter Sign-ups

If you subscribe to our email newsletter or marketing communications, we collect:

  • Your name
  • Your email address

Our email marketing is delivered via Flowdesk, a third-party email marketing platform. By subscribing, your data is stored and processed by Flowdesk on our behalf.

Why we collect this: To send you updates about Let’s Thrive programmes, news, resources, and events.

Legal basis: Consent (Article 6(1)(a) UK GDPR). You can withdraw your consent at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in any email we send, or by emailing us directly. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing that took place before you withdrew it.


3. Passport to Thrive — Learner Progress Submissions

The Passport to Thrive programme is a free, self-guided digital resource. When a learner chooses to share their progress with the Let’s Thrive team upon completion, they may provide:

  • A name or username
  • Progress information or reflections from their workbook

Why we collect this: To acknowledge their completion, celebrate their achievement, and (where relevant) to invite them to the next stage of their Let’s Thrive journey.

Legal basis: Consent (Article 6(1)(a) UK GDPR) — submission of progress is voluntary and not required to access the resource.

Important note on children’s data

Our programmes are designed for learners of all ages, including children under the age of 18. Where a learner is a child:

  • We expect schools, colleges, or other educational institutions to act as the appropriate gateway for obtaining consent and sharing information with us.
  • Schools and educational settings that work with us are responsible for ensuring that the appropriate data sharing arrangements and parental or guardian consents are in place before any child’s data is shared with us.
  • We do not knowingly collect personal data directly from children under the age of 13 without verifiable parental or guardian consent, or without the school acting as the appropriate data controller under their own safeguarding and data protection policies.
  • Where a child’s data is shared with us by a school or educational setting, we process it only for the purposes described in our agreed arrangements with that institution, and in accordance with our obligations as a data processor on their behalf.
  • We do not use children’s data for marketing purposes.
  • We apply the principles of the ICO’s Children’s Code (Age Appropriate Design Code) and take appropriate care in how we handle any data relating to children.

If you are a parent or guardian and have concerns about data relating to your child, please contact us using the details at the top of this policy.

2. Right to rectification — You can ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data.

4. Right to restriction of processing — You can ask us to restrict how we use your data in certain circumstances (e.g. while a dispute is resolved).

5. Right to data portability — Where processing is based on consent or contract, and carried out by automated means, you can ask us to provide your data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.

6. Right to object — You can object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes. Where you object to direct marketing, we will always stop.

We will respond within one month of receiving your request. In complex cases we may extend this by a further two months, in which case we will let you know. We will not charge a fee for responding to your request, unless it is manifestly unfounded or excessive.

We may need to verify your identity before we can action your request.


How We Keep Your Data Secure

We take reasonable and appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, destruction, alteration, or disclosure. These measures include:

  • Limiting access to personal data to those who need it to carry out their role

No method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure, please contact us immediately.
