Effective Date: January 1, 2026 Last Updated: May 20, 2026
Welcome to easthillsacademy.org. We are committed to protecting the privacy of our students, parents, and staff. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information on this website.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information in three ways:
Voluntary Information: This includes names, email addresses, and phone numbers you provide through contact forms, newsletter sign-ups, or “Request Information” buttons.
Automatic Technical Data: Like most websites, we collect non-identifying data such as your IP address, browser type, and which pages you visit. This helps us improve our site’s performance.
Cookies: We use “cookies” to remember your preferences. You can disable these in your browser settings at any time.
2. Student Data Privacy (The “Golden Rule”)
At East Hills Academy, student privacy is our highest priority.
No Sale of Data: We never sell, rent, or trade student personal information to third parties.
No Targeted Advertising: We do not use student data to build profiles for advertising purposes.
FERPA Compliance: We strictly adhere to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act. Parents have the right to review any student records collected via our digital portals.
3. COPPA & Children Under 13
Our website is intended for parents and prospective families. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13 through this website.
If a student under 13 uses a school-sanctioned digital tool linked from this site, we obtain prior parental consent in accordance with the 2026 COPPA Rule.
4. Third-Party Links
Our site may contain links to educational tools (like Google Classroom or PowerSchool). While we vet these partners for security, EHA is not responsible for the privacy practices of external sites. We encourage you to read their individual policies.
5. Security Measures
We use industry-standard SSL encryption to protect any data sent through our forms. Access to sensitive information is restricted to authorized school personnel who need it to perform their jobs.
6. Your Rights & Choices
You have the right to:
Request a copy of the personal data we have on file for you.
Request that we delete your contact information from our marketing lists.
Opt-out of any non-essential cookies.
