Personal Information Collection Statement ("PICS")

Last Update: 29 April 2025

This Personal Information Collection Statement (this “Statement”) is made in accordance with the requirements of the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance (the “PDPO”) and the Privacy Policy Statement of  Mini Mandarins (HK) Limited (“MM”, “we”, “us” and “our”), which is available on our website https://minimandarins.com/en_US/site/privacy-policy. If you are a parent or guardian, this Personal Information Collection Statement “PICS” shall apply to both your own personal data and the personal data of your child provided to us, and in such case the term “your personal data” shall be construed accordingly. This Statement sets out:

  1. The purposes for which your personal data (for example, name, address, contact details, photos and other information from which you and/or your child might be identified) may be collected and used by MM;
  2. To whom the personal data collected may be transferred or disclosed; and
  3. How you could access and correct your personal data.

1) Purpose and Collection of Personal Data

Please note that personal data marked with asterisks (*) in this personal information collection form (in both hardcopy and softcopy) are mandatory. If you do not provide such personal data, we may not be able to process your application or offer our programmes and/or services to you. If a data subject is below 18 years old, we will request their parents or guardian to indicate their consent to the collection, holding, use, processing, and disclosure of their personal data. We may collect, hold, use and process your and/or your child's personal data, for the following purposes:

  • providing our services, programmes and products to you;
  • processing your application/enrolment;
  • responding to your application/enrolment;
  • conducting surveys, research and analysis for improvement of our services, programmes and products and our websites;
  • performing our administrative, education, academic and research functions;
  • billing purposes;
  • (subject to your consent) offering you our services, programmes and products, including sending you marketing and promotional materials relating to our services, programmes and products;
  • (subject to your consent) conducting joint promotion events, including sending you marketing and promotional materials in relation to the education programmes, courses, learning materials and children’s related products and services (including but not limited to newsletters, photos, videos, publications, media), information, products, services, events and/or business of ARCH Education Group Limited, CTF Education Group Limited, and their holding companies, subsidiaries and affiliated organisations and entities operating in education, art, culture, hospitality, sports, insurance and social innovation services (“Affiliates”);
  • making such disclosures as required by law; and
  • any other incidental or associated purposes relating to the above, or any other purpose which you may from time to time agree.

2) Disclosure and Transfer of Personal Data

MM will take all practicable steps to keep the personal data you have provided confidential. However, MM may need to disclose, transfer or assign personal data collected to third parties to facilitate the purpose for which the personal data was collected. In general, the parties to which may disclose, transfer or assign personal data include:

  1. Third parties (within or outside Hong Kong) engaged by us, including but not limited to any agent, contractor, or third-party service provider who provides administrative, legal, telecommunications, computer, payment, data processing or other services to our school; and
  2. Any court, governmental, supervisory or regulatory authority or administrative organisation or entity, whether in or outside Hong Kong.

The personal data may be disclosed, transferred or assigned within or outside Hong Kong. In case it is to a place outside Hong Kong, while MM will take appropriate steps to protect the privacy of the personal data, it should be noted that such place may not have in place data protection laws which are substantially similar to, or serve the same purposes as, the PDPO so personal data located outside Hong Kong may not be protected to the same or similar level as in Hong Kong.

Subject to your consent, we may use and include names, school works, school awards, video/audio recordings, transcripts and photographs of you and/or your child taken by the school or provided by you and/or your child for the purposes of publications and promotional activities (including but not limited to MM’s brochures, newsletters, website, social media platform, and promotional and marketing materials).

3) Retention of Personal Data

We will retain any personal data collected for the duration required to fulfil the original purpose of collection. Generally speaking, the personal data will be retained for so long as it is necessary for the fulfilment of the purpose for which the data is collected or for a maximum of 7 years, unless we are under any legal obligation to retain the same for a longer period.

4) Yours Rights

Under the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance, we may not use or provide to another person for use any personal data in direct marketing unless with your consent. You have a right to request access to, make a copy of, and request us to make correction of any personal data you provided. If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please complete the “Personal Data Access Form” (https://www.pcpd.org.hk/english/publications/files/Dforme.pdf) and/or make the correction request and send it directly us, please find our contact details below.
