Our Website
This website is operated by Kindred Education Limited (“Kindred”, “we” or “us”). Our website uses cookies to distinguish you from other users of our website. This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our website and it also allows us to improve our site.
This cookie policy only relates to your use of our website to browse our products and services.
Throughout our website we use plugins from social media networks such as Facebook and Instagram and you can recognise these plugins by their logos. Our plugins will not collect personal data about you unless you click on these logos. If you click on them, these plugins are activated, will take you to the third party website, and automatically transmit data to the plugin provider.
