Privacy Policy
AKT Academy is the operating name of Anthony Krupp Tutoring LLC. This policy covers www.anthonykrupptutoring.com, our course and community platform, our webinars, and every program we deliver.
1. Introduction
AKT Academy (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is a boutique test-preparation company. We work with a small number of students and their families at a time, which means the information you share with us is handled by people who know your name, not by an anonymous system.
This policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, who else touches it, and what you can ask us to do about it. It applies when you:
visit www.anthonykrupptutoring.com or any AKT Academy landing page,
register for or attend one of our webinars,
book or attend a Strategy Call or Clarity Call,
enroll in a program or buy tutoring hours,
use our course and student community platform, or
contact us by email, text message, or a form on our site.
By using our website or services, you agree to the practices described here. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the site or enroll.
This policy does not cover refunds, cancellations, or program terms. Those live in our separate Terms of Service.
2. Information We Collect
We collect four kinds of information. Most of it you give us directly.
Contact and identity
Student and parent or guardian name, email address, phone number, time zone, how you heard about us. Collected through webinar registration, forms, booking pages, enrollment, and your email and text replies.
Academic
Target test and test date, current or practice scores, score reports you choose to share, homework and practice work, session notes, progress reports. Collected from you during enrollment and throughout the program.
Transaction
Program purchased, amount, date, billing contact, and the last four digits of your card. Handled by our payment processor; we never see or store your full card number.
Technical and behavioral
IP address, browser and device type, pages visited, referring source, ad clicks, email opens and clicks, form submissions, webinar attendance and chat. Collected automatically through analytics and advertising tools (see Section 4).
We also collect session content when a program includes it: Zoom recordings of classes or webinars, chat transcripts, and documents shared during a session. We tell you before a session is recorded.
What we don’t collect. We don’t ask for Social Security numbers, government ID numbers, financial account numbers, health information, or demographic information such as race, religion, or disability status. If you volunteer something like this in an email, we don’t record it in our systems.
Text messages. If you give us your phone number, we may text you about scheduling, session reminders, and program updates. We ask for separate consent before sending marketing texts, and you can stop any time by replying STOP. Message and data rates may apply. We do not share or sell phone numbers collected for text messaging to anyone for their own marketing.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use what we collect to:
Deliver tutoring, classes, and webinars, and build a study plan that fits the student.
Schedule and confirm sessions, and send reminders by email or text.
Track academic progress and produce progress reports for students and parents.
Process payments and keep accurate business and tax records.
Answer your questions and provide support.
Send educational resources, program announcements, and promotions you’ve opted into. Every marketing email has an unsubscribe link.
Measure which ads, pages, and webinars actually bring families to us, so we spend our advertising budget sensibly.
Improve our materials, our website, and the way we teach.
We do not sell or rent your personal information, and we never have.
We do not use your name, your student’s name, scores, or story in marketing without your written permission. When a family agrees to give a testimonial or review, that agreement is specific and revocable — tell us and we take it down.
We do not use student academic work, session recordings, or progress data to train artificial intelligence models, and we do not allow our vendors to do so.
4. Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising Technologies
Our site uses cookies and similar technologies — including pixels and tracking tags — for three purposes:
Essential
Keeps the site working: page loads, form submissions, checkout, staying logged in. These can’t be turned off; the site won’t function without them.
Analytics
Tells us which pages people read and where they drop off, so we can fix what isn’t working. You can turn these off.
Advertising
Lets us measure which ads lead to webinar registrations, and show ads to people who have visited our site. You can turn these off.
We do run advertising technology. We advertise on Meta (Facebook and Instagram) to fill our weekly webinar, and we use the Meta Pixel and similar conversion tracking to see which ads work. We may run Google Ads and use Google’s conversion tracking in the same way. This means Meta and Google receive information about your visit to our site, including pages viewed and actions taken, and may use it to show you our ads elsewhere.
Your choices:
Most browsers let you block or delete cookies in their settings. Some parts of our site may not work properly if you do.
You can limit ad personalization in your Meta account settings and at Google Ads Settings.
You can opt out of many advertising cookies at the Digital Advertising Alliance and the Network Advertising Initiative.
We honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals where the law requires it.
We never use advertising or analytics tools inside our course platform, our live sessions, or our progress-tracking system. Student academic data is not connected to any advertising tool.
5. Third-Party Services and International Data Transfers
We are a small company and we rely on established platforms to operate. Each one receives only the information it needs to do its job, and each has its own privacy policy.
GoHighLevel — CRM, email and text marketing, landing pages, scheduling. Receives contact details, lead source, email and text activity.
Stripe — Payment processing. Receives billing name, email, and card details, which Stripe processes and we never store.
Zoom — Live classes, webinars, calls. Receives name, email, attendance, chat, and recordings where applicable.
Squarespace — Website hosting. Receives site visit data and form submissions.
Google Workspace — Email, documents, file storage. Receives anything sent to or stored by us.
Google Analytics — Website analytics. Receives technical and behavioral data (see Section 4).
Meta — Advertising and conversion measurement. Receives technical and behavioral data (see Section 4).
Calendly — Call scheduling. Receives name, email, and booking details.
WISE — Course delivery and student community. Receives name, email, course progress, and community posts.
We may add or change vendors as the business grows. We update this list when we do.
Where your data lives. We are based in the United States and our vendors store data in the United States. If you are outside the U.S., using our services means your information is transferred to and processed in the U.S., where privacy laws differ from those in your country. Where required, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent safeguards for these transfers.
Law enforcement and legal requests. We may disclose information if we are legally required to — a subpoena, a court order, or a tax authority. We will tell you unless we’re legally prohibited from doing so.
Business transfer. If AKT Academy is ever sold or merged, your information may transfer as part of that transaction. You’d be notified before your information became subject to a different policy.
6. Legal Basis for Processing (International Users)
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, the GDPR and UK GDPR give you specific protections. We process your personal information on one or more of these lawful bases:
Consent — Subscribing to our emails, agreeing to marketing texts, allowing a session recording, agreeing to a testimonial.
Performance of a contract — Delivering a program you enrolled in, scheduling sessions, processing your payment.
Legal obligation — Keeping tax and accounting records.
Legitimate interests — Improving our teaching and website, preventing fraud, and measuring which ads work, balanced against your rights.
Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw it at any time. Withdrawing consent doesn’t affect anything we did before you withdrew it, and it doesn’t affect processing we do on another basis — we still have to keep your invoice for tax purposes.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your national data protection authority.
7. Data Retention and Security
How long we keep things.
Enrollment and academic records — Three years after the program ends, so we can answer questions and write recommendations.
Financial and tax records — Seven years, as U.S. tax law requires.
Marketing contacts who never enrolled — Until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete, or after two years of no engagement.
Session recordings — Twelve months unless the program says otherwise, then deleted.
Website analytics — As configured in our analytics tools, generally fourteen months.
You can ask us to delete your information sooner. See Section 9.
How we protect it. Access is limited to Dr. Anthony Krupp, Clo Blanco-Krupp, and any contractor who needs it to do their job — each under a confidentiality obligation. Our accounts use strong, unique passwords and two-factor authentication where the platform supports it. Payment data is handled entirely by our payment processor under PCI-DSS standards; we never hold full card numbers.
No system is perfectly secure. If a breach affects your personal information, we will notify you and the relevant authorities within the timeframe the law requires.
8. Students Under 18 and Parental Consent
Most of our SAT students are minors. This section matters more to us than any other part of this policy.
Age requirements. Our services are intended for students aged 13 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has given us information, email ak@anthonykrupptutoring.com and we will delete it promptly.
Parental consent. For any student under 18, a parent or legal guardian must enroll the student, provide consent, and be the account holder. We will not begin working with a minor without it.
What parents and guardians can do. As the parent or guardian of a student under 18, you may at any time:
review the personal and academic information we hold about your student,
request corrections,
request deletion of your student’s information,
withdraw consent and end the program, and
refuse to allow further collection or use of your student’s information.
Email ak@anthonykrupptutoring.com to do any of these.
How we treat student data.
We never sell student information, and we never share it for anyone else’s marketing.
We do not direct advertising at students, and we do not use student academic data for advertising or ad targeting.
We do not build advertising profiles of minors.
Marketing communications go to the parent or guardian on the account, not to the student, unless the student is 18 or older.
Academic records, session notes, and progress reports are shared only with the student and the parent or guardian on the account.
Session recordings involving minors. We tell you before a session or webinar is recorded. Recordings of classes that include minors are stored with restricted access and are not used in marketing. If you’d prefer your student not appear on camera in a recorded class, tell us and we’ll accommodate your preference.
9. Your Privacy Rights
Wherever you live, you can ask us to:
Access — tell you what personal information we hold about you and give you a copy.
Correct — fix anything inaccurate or incomplete.
Delete — erase your information, except what we must keep for tax or legal reasons.
Port — send you an electronic copy you can take elsewhere.
Withdraw consent — for anything you previously agreed to.
Object or restrict — limit how we use your information.
Opt out of marketing — unsubscribe from emails, or reply STOP to texts.
How to exercise a right. Email ak@anthonykrupptutoring.com and tell us what you want. We may ask you to confirm your identity before we act, so we don’t hand your information to someone else.
Our response time. We respond within 45 days, and we’ll tell you if we need longer. There is no charge unless a request is excessive or repetitive.
No retaliation. We will never deny you service, charge you a different price, or give you a lesser experience because you exercised a privacy right.
10. U.S. State Privacy Rights
A growing number of U.S. states give residents specific privacy rights. If you live in one of them — California, Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia, Texas, Oregon, and others — the rights in Section 9 apply to you under your state’s law, and you may also:
Appeal a decision we make about your request. If we decline, we’ll explain why and tell you how to appeal and how to contact your state attorney general.
Use an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf.
Opt out of targeted advertising and of any “sale” or “sharing” of your personal information.
On “sale” and “sharing.” We do not sell personal information for money. However, when we use advertising technology such as the Meta Pixel or Google’s conversion tracking (Section 4), some state laws treat that as “sharing” personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. To opt out:
turn off advertising cookies in your browser,
enable Global Privacy Control in a browser that supports it, or
email ak@anthonykrupptutoring.com with the subject line Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information.
California residents. Under the CCPA as amended by the CPRA, you have the rights above plus the right to know the categories of personal information we collect, the sources, our business purpose, and the categories of third parties we disclose to — all set out in Sections 2, 3, and 5 of this policy. We do not sell or share the personal information of consumers we know to be under 16.
Minors’ data. Several states give additional protections to residents under 18, including limits on targeted advertising and profiling. We apply those protections to every student under 18, regardless of where they live. See Section 8.
11. Changes to This Policy
We update this policy when our tools, services, or legal obligations change. The current version and its effective date always appear at the top of this page.
If we make a material change — something that meaningfully affects how we use your information — we will email enrolled families and anyone on our list before it takes effect. Continuing to use our website or services after a change means you accept the updated policy.
