Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to Langstation ("we," "us," or "our"). We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share your information when you visit our website (langstation.com) or enroll in our language courses. By using our services, you consent to the data practices described in this policy.

Langstation is a sole proprietorship legally registered in Argentina.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information in three main categories:

A. Information You Provide to Us

•
Account Data: When you enroll, we collect your name, email address, phone number, and country of residence.
•
Payment Data: We collect billing details necessary to process tuition. Note that we do not store credit card numbers on our servers; payments are processed by secure third-party gateways (e.g., Stripe, PayPal).
•
Student Data: To track your learning, we record class attendance, homework submissions, and instructor notes regarding your language progress.

B. Information Collected Automatically

•
Technical Data: We automatically collect information about your device, including your IP address, browser type, and operating system. This is standard for websites built on Next.js and WordPress to ensure proper content rendering.
•
Usage Data: Using Google Analytics 4 (GA4), we collect anonymous data on how you navigate our site (e.g., pages visited, session duration).

C. Information from Third Parties

•
Advertising Data: If you click on an ad for Langstation on Google or Facebook (Meta), we receive data confirming that the ad led to a visit or enrollment.

3. Children's Privacy (Kids & Teenagers Track)

We offer specific language tracks for students under the age of 18. Protecting the privacy of minors is our highest priority.

•
Parental Consent: We do not knowingly collect personal information from children without verifiable parental consent. A parent or legal guardian must create the account and consent to the collection of the child's data.
•
Parental Access: Parents have the right to review the information we have collected about their child (such as progress reports and attendance) and may request its deletion at any time.
•
No Marketing to Minors: We do not use the personal information of minors for behavioral advertising or marketing purposes.

4. How We Use Your Information

We use your data for the following legitimate business purposes:

•
Service Delivery: To schedule classes, connect you with teachers, and provide access to learning materials.
•
Student Progress: To generate progress reports (sent to students or parents of minors).
•
Communication: To send class reminders, billing receipts, and important service updates.
•
Marketing: To send you newsletters or promotional offers (only if you have opted in). We also use data to measure the effectiveness of our ads on Google and Facebook.
•
Legal Compliance: To comply with tax and accounting laws in Argentina.

5. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell your personal data. We only share it with:

•
Instructors: Your assigned teacher receives your name and learning profile to conduct classes effectively.
•
Service Providers: We use trusted third-party vendors for hosting (Next.js/WordPress), analytics (Google), and payment processing. They are contractually obligated to protect your data.
•
Legal Authorities: If required by law or to protect our rights in a legal dispute.

6. International Data Transfers

Langstation is based in Argentina. If you are accessing our services from outside Argentina (e.g., the EU or USA), please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in Argentina or the United States (where many of our technical servers are located). Argentina is recognized by the European Union as providing an "adequate" level of data protection.

7. Your Rights (Habeas Data)

Under Argentine Law 25.326 and international best practices, you have the right to:

•
Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
•
Rectification: Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
•
Deletion: Request that we delete your personal data (subject to legal retention requirements, such as tax records).
•
Opt-Out: Unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at contact@langstation.com.

8. Security

We use industry-standard security measures, including SSL encryption, to protect your data during transmission. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our services or legal obligations. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page will indicate the latest revision.
