Privacy policy

We collect the contact details and care preferences you submit through matching, contact, account, and profile-claim forms. Contact details are encrypted at rest and used to process your request, produce relevant evaluation organization results, provide follow-up, prevent abuse, and operate the service.

Matching requests are not automatically broadcast to every listed provider. Authorized operators and service providers that support hosting, email, and secure notifications may process the minimum information needed to run the service. We do not sell submitted contact details.

Directory profiles are assembled from public records and reviewed public practice sources. Claimants may submit corrections for review. We retain form and account data only as long as needed for operations, security, legal obligations, and request history.

Analytics

ChildEvaluation uses Google Analytics to count visits and to see which tools and pages help families. Google Analytics sets cookies in your browser. We send it the page path without the rest of the address, so answers you give in a tool, such as a ZIP code or concern, aren't included. Tool events record categories, like an age band or evaluation type, never names, contact details, or anything you type.

“Request providers near you”

When you ask for providers in an area where we list too few, we store only your child's age band, the concern category you chose, the evaluation type, the county, the first three digits of your ZIP code, and which page you were on. We use this to decide which areas and evaluation types to add next. It isn't linked to your name or contact details.

Tools that stay in your browser

The school evaluation request letter is built in your browser. We don't store or receive what you type into it. The Where do I start? tool keeps your answers in the page address so you can bookmark or share the results; we don't save them.
