Third-Party Services

Our platform integrates with carefully selected third-party services to enhance your learning experience. Each service operates under its own privacy policy.

Educational Content Partners

We work with reputable financial education providers to offer comprehensive learning materials. These partnerships may involve sharing limited information about your course progress to provide seamless access to external resources.

Analytics Services

We use analytics tools to understand how users interact with our platform and identify areas for improvement. This data is aggregated and anonymized wherever possible.

Children's Privacy

gavinolutharesq's services are designed for adults seeking financial education. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children under 13, and our platform requires users to be at least 18 years old to create an account.

If we discover that we've inadvertently collected information from a child, we'll delete it immediately. Parents who believe their child has provided us with personal information should contact us right away.

Educational Resources for Families

While our platform is for adults, we recognize that financial education benefits entire families. We may develop age-appropriate resources that parents can share with their children, but these won't require separate accounts or data collection from minors.
