Dibber Personal Data Notice

​​Contents 

1. Introduction 

Dibber®’s purpose is to develop lifelong learners with a heart for the world™ with state-of-the-science and state-of-the-art education services. For us to fulfil this purpose it is essential for us to collect and otherwise process personal data of children, Caregivers, Additional Caregivers, employees, Users of our Dibber app™ as well as all other persons who are somehow involved in the world’s most important job (capitalized words you find explained in section 2 if not defined elsewhere). We are uncompromisingly committed to collect and otherwise process and protect personal data in the appropriate way. We collect personal data directly when people enquire about, show interest in, apply for and agree to admission to Dibber, receive education services from us, use the Dibber app, use our websites, are involved in marketing or marketing-related events, such as the distribution of newsletters, surveys or receiving offerings; request guidance or submit complaints or apply for a position with us. We may also collect information indirectly in different situations, such as when a complaint or non-conformity report contains information about people, we are involved in a transaction or when a Caregiver appoints an Additional Caregiver. We promise to do our outmost to ensure your right to privacy, including to keep your personal data safe and secure. We have prepared this statement about our processing of personal data and data protection to explain our processing and protection of personal data and to inform you which rights you have in this relation (our "Personal Data Notice").

"Dibber", "we", "our" and "us" may refer to, as determined by the context, the limited liability company Dibber AS, a Norwegian private limited liability company, having the organisation number 998 831 067; the Dibber Group; the Dibber Extended Dibber Group and any Dibber Education Services Provider.

The Dibber Group and the Extended Dibber Group spans numerous Dibber Education Services Providers and Dibber Education Units around the world, delivering state-of-the-science and state-of-the-art education services under or associated with trademarks such as CreaKids, Creation, Children’s International School (CIS), Dibber Play School, Dibber International Preschool, Dibber International Preschools, Himpelchen und Pimpelchen, Læringsverkstedet, Pilke, Pilke päiväkodit (Pilke Kindergartens), Pilke perhepalvelut (Pilke Family Services), Pilke lastenhoito (Pilke Childcare) and Pilke iltapäiväkerhot (Pilke Afternoon Clubs). Dibber AS is the ultimate parent company and owner, operator and licensor of the Dibber app and all other Intellectual Property in the Dibber Group and the Intellectual Property being licensed in the Extended Dibber Group. Importantly, with respect to personal data, Dibber AS is also the data controller for all our processing of personal data and have the responsibility to ensure that all processing of personal data takes place in accordance with Applicable Data Protection Law.

We often refer to the GDPR in our Personal Data Notice, which is an EU/EEA-particular regulation. You may have accessed this Personal Data Notice from outside the EU/EEA and be subject to other Applicable Data Protection Law. You are, however, still the target audience of this Personal Data Notice. GDPR is by many considered the 'gold standard' of regulation of personal data and the protection of such data. In response to the extreme surge of electronic data available online, EU regulators adopted the GDPR to ensure control data processing, ensure a high protection of personal data and to prevent security breaches across all member states of the EU/EEA. As we strive to ensure appropriate processing personal data and privacy for all our employees, Users, Additional Caregivers and other data subjects, we have decided to use the GDPR as a baseline globally. Differences because of differences in national law exist both within the EU/EEA and outside the EU/EEA.

Our Personal Data Notice has five sections in addition to this introduction. In section 2 you will find definitions for terms not defined elsewhere. General information with respect to our processing of personal data across the globe are in section 3, while the country-specific particulars just mentioned are described in section 4. If you have an inquiry or complaint, please go to section 5, where you find our contact information. We may make changes to our Personal Data Notice from time to time and this is elaborated on in section 6.

3.1. Introduction 

3.1

We process personal data for various purposes which you will find described in section 3.2. We provide you information about our information security to protect personal data in section 3.3. We use sub-processors in order for us to provide the best possible services, and you will find information regarding this in section 3.4. Information pertaining to transfers of personal data outside of the EU/EEA is providedin section 3.5. In section 3.6 you will find a summary of your rights with respect to our processing of personal data. 

Note that we often refer to the GDPR, which is an EU/EEA particular regulation, in this Global section 3. You may have accessed this Data Protection Statement from outside the EU/EEA and you may be subject to other Applicable Data Protection Laws. You are, however, still the target audience for this Data Protection Statement. Our reason for generally referring to the GDPR is that this regulation is by many considered the ‘gold standard’ of data protection and privacy regulations. In response to the explosion of online data, EU regulators adopted the GDPR to ensure a high protection of personal data, prevent security breaches and control data processing across all member states of the EU/EEA. As we strive to ensure the data protection and privacy for all our employees, Users, Additional Caretakers and other data subjects, we have decided to use the GDPR as a global baseline. Note, however, that differences due to national law may apply. You will find such differences in section 4. Note that differences may also apply to different EU member states, as the laws are not entirely harmonized. Such differences may also be listed in section 4.

In order to comply with legal obligations applicable to us, for instance an obligation to provide a safe and satisfactory educations services, we process these ordinary categories of personal data and special categories of personal data as to the daily activities in our education units:

The legal basis for the processing of the ordinary personal data is the GDPR Article 6 no 1 (c) and for the special categories of personal data it is the GDPR Article 9 no 2 (g) cf Article 6 no 1 (c). Some jurisdictions may have Applicable Data Protection Law that serve as a legal basis for such processing. For such local particularities please confer with section 4.

We have a legitimate interest to ensure that the person delivering or picking up a child is appointed by a Caregiver to take the responsibility for the child. Further, if we are unable to reach the respective Caregiver, it may be necessary to notify someone else if something urgent or important occurs. We retain and process personal data regarding Additional Caregivers as long as it is necessary to achieve the purpose.

Generally, we may also process personal data of data subjects involved in the performance of our education services for archiving purposes for up to three years after the performance of the services. Data sometimes must be stored for archiving purposes for the public interest or where similar legitimate interests apply. The data will be archived safely, masked, and will only be used for other processing activities than archiving after an independent assessment whether there are legitimate interests for further processing.

Unless there is another legal basis for processing, we only process these personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil a legitimate interest.

3.2.2.5. Picture, video and audio and associated information

Photography, video and audio are important in almost every aspect of society, also in early childhood development and for education services specifically. We want to record and share events and the good experiences children, our employees and other trusted persons have within our organisation and with Caregivers, Additional Caregivers and society also when we may not rely on the other legal bases for processing. We therefore collect what we refer to as internal purposes and external purposes consents for us and trusted partners and other third-parties globally to record children, Caregivers, Additional Caregivers, employees and other trusted persons with photography, video and audio and use these media as follows

Consent
Content of consent
Detailed description if relevant

Use photography, video and audio in press coverage and similar

Press and similar institutions are interested in what people are up to, also the children and employees of our Dibber Education Units. Occasionally they visit one or more of our Dibber Education Units to find out what is hot or not.

We are important to society and open to those who seek information about us and what we do, which is the purpose of this processing.

External purposes consents

Use photography, video and audio for our and trusted partners’ websites,   newsletters and social networks and other channels

We want to share the good experiences the children and our employees   have not only within Dibber and with Caregivers and Additional Caregivers but   also with society. A Dibber Education Unit may want to advert a child’s   birthday in the local newspaper. We want to show others how good times we are   having in a local, national, regional or global marketing campaign.

One purpose of this processing is to enable us to provide the best   possible basis for wellbeing for children, Caregivers and Additional   Caregivers as well as our organisation and to provide the best possible   education services. Another purpose, as we believe we have something special   to deliver in our state-of-the-art education services and want to develop as   many lifelong learners with a heart for the world as possible, is that we   want to share what we do with society and market our education services.

Share photography, video and audio in closed groups in other online   and offline networks and the like

Sometimes social media (other than the social media functionality in the Dibber app) are used to facilitate communication with and among Caregivers and Additional Caregivers and us.

The purpose of this processing is to enable us to provide the best possible basis for wellbeing for children, Caregivers and Additional Caregivers as well as our organisation and to provide the best possible education services.

Share photography, video and   audio in the Dibber app (or another app used for our provision of education   services)

Photography, video and audio can be uploaded to the Dibber app, shared   and made available for downloading among Caregivers, Additional Caregivers   and children and us. We may, for instance, show the children play tag in one   of our daily summaries.

The purpose of this processing is to enable us to provide the best   possible basis for wellbeing for children, Caregivers and Additional   Caregivers as well as our organisation and to provide the best possible   education services.

Internal purposes consents

Use photography, video and audio in or in association with the   provision of our education services in general

Children at Dibber are encouraged to develop and use creativity and craftmanship, and this often involves photography, video and audio. What they and our employees make is often put up on the wall or brought home and elsewhere. Installations with photography, names and birthdays are common in our Dibber Education Units, important information for many children to make known. Employees at Dibber may want to document an event with children and Additional Caregivers to show to Caregivers or to our organisation otherwise (also the Extended Dibber Group). A photography of children and employees may be used in an annual plan for Dibber. Some Dibber Education Units keep "class photos", graduation binders and similar in memory of the children that have moved on to new ventures. Observation with recording of children, employees, students or researchers with photography, video and audio is important for knowledge about early childhood development and the quality of education services. A professional photographer takes portrait and group pictures of the children Caregivers can buy. A Christmas card of the department in a Dibber Education Unit is sent to all Caregivers, Additional Caregivers and perhaps within our organisation.

The purpose of this processing is to enable us to provide the best possible basis for wellbeing for children, Caregivers and Additional Caregivers as well as our organisation and to provide the best possible education services.

Record with photography, video and audio

The main motive can be your child, Caregivers, Additional Caregivers or employees, such as when a child is wearing a birthday hat, blowing out the candles on the cake or someone is singing the birthday song (a "portrait recording"); or a situation, indoors or outdoors, such as when a group of boys and girls enjoy a good game of soccer or play tag (a "situation recording").

The purpose of this processing is to enable the processing described otherwise in this table.

As you may gather, internal purposes consents refer to consents where the processing of photography, video and audio is limited to the confines of Dibber, its trusted partners and children, Caregivers and Additional Caregivers; and external consents refer to processing involving the public space. The legal basis for this processing is GDPR Article 6 no 1 (a). For countries outside the EU/EEA please confer section 4. Please note, as mentioned, that the use of photography, video and audio may be permitted on other legal bases than these consents. We may also collect specific consents in addition to those described in this notice.

Unless there is another legal basis for processing, we only process these personal data as long as necessary for the provided consent. You can always choose to withdraw or adjust consents you have provided. You can do this in the Dibber app or, if not possible in the Dibber app, by contacting us at consentmanagement@dibberfamily.com. After withdrawal we shall no longer process the relevant data and delete them to the extent within our control, unless something else is required by law or another legal obligation.
