Privacy policy

Last updated June 2026·Read time: 4 minutes

Draft, pending legal review. This page requires legal review before launch. The structure and section headers are final; the plain-English copy captures intent but must be reviewed by an attorney for GDPR, CCPA, and other applicable regulations before this policy goes live.

Habla Boricua respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

We wrote this in plain English. When a formal legal version is prepared, it will govern in the event of any conflict.

01What we collect

We collect:

  • Information you give us directly: your name, email, phone number if you provide it, payment information (processed by Stripe), profile details, messages you send through the platform, and content you create (like your dashboard settings or notes).
  • Information collected automatically: your IP address, browser type, device information, pages you visit, and how you interact with the platform.
  • Information from third parties: if you sign up through Google or another service, we may receive basic profile information from them.

02How we use it

We use your information to:

  • Provide the platform (book classes, process payments, send confirmations).
  • Match you with tutors through the matcher and search.
  • Communicate with you about bookings, messages, and account activity.
  • Improve the platform.
  • Comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell your personal information.

03Who we share it with

We share limited information with:

  • Your tutor (name, email, message content, and context about your bookings).
  • Stripe (for payment processing).
  • Google (for Google Meet).
  • Nimodo (the connected learning platform, when you open Nimodo through Boricua).
  • Service providers that help us operate the platform (email delivery, analytics, hosting).
  • Law enforcement, when legally required.

04Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

  • Access the information we hold about you.
  • Correct information that's inaccurate.
  • Delete your account and information.
  • Object to certain uses of your information.
  • Receive a portable copy of your data.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@boricuaspanish.com.

05Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you logged in, remember your preferences, and understand how you use the platform. This section serves as our cookie policy for now; a standalone cookie policy may follow if compliance requires one.

06Data retention

We keep your information for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we retain some information for legal and operational reasons (like payment records) but delete personal information within 90 days.

07Children's privacy

Habla Boricua is not directed at children under 13. If a parent or guardian is booking classes for a child, we recommend using the parent's account and specifying the child's age in the booking notes.

08Changes to this policy

We update this policy from time to time. When we make significant changes, we'll notify you by email and post the updated policy here.
