A Legal Disclaimer
This Privacy Policy is a general template and is provided for informational purposes only. It is NOT legal advice.
Laws regarding data privacy, especially those concerning children (such as the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act – COPPA, and the General Data Protection Regulation – GDPR), are complex and vary significantly by region (e.g., India, US, EU).
You MUST consult with a legal professional familiar with e-commerce, international data law, and children's privacy regulations to ensure this policy accurately reflects your business practices and fully complies with all applicable laws. Learner Shack is an educational company, and compliance in this area is non-negotiable.
