If you as a parent or guardian register your child for the Junior Coding Club (abbreviated CC in the following) on this website, we will set up a CC student user and account for your child. This password-protected direct online access is a prerequisite for the use of the learning applications in order to participate in the digital education services of Educody GmbH.
Educody GmbH only shares personal information in a few limited circumstances, described below. We do not sell Children’s personal information or use Children’s personal information to market or advertise to Children, nor do we permit third parties to do so.
The Junior Coding Club’s online access for students allows the use of a number of curated educational applications suitable for children. We maintain a list of these third-party providers with further descriptions on a separate page.
Microsoft 365 Education
We use Microsoft 365 Education and Azure services such as Active Directory for teaching and managing the students of the Junior Coding Club. No account is created for parents. Parents are allowed to add additional data to the student account. The children’s accounts receive a Microsoft 365 Education student licence. This includes the use of a number of Microsoft applications (MS Teams and OneNote as well as Word Online, Excel Online and PowerPoint Online).
We have chosen Microsoft for free reasons and considerations and are not beholden to the company in any way. We would like to inform you as fully as possible about how we handle your child’s data.
The Microsoft school account is created by Educody GmbH and linked to the tenant’s email address (codingclub.cc). In the CC school account, the following data necessary for the administrative and pedagogical operation are collected and processed:
User data (title, name, email address, password change)
Courses purchased
Educody GmbH will transmit the data entered in the fields “First name / Last name” to Microsoft Ireland Operations Limited, Carmanhall Road, Sandyford Industrial Estate, Dublin 18, Ireland (“Microsoft Ireland”).
Microsoft Ireland will only use the data submitted for the purposes of setting up and managing the Microsoft Office 365 account. Furthermore, in addition to setting up your Office 365 account, Microsoft will automatically create a user profile for you in the Microsoft Online Portal. The data entered in the “First name / Surname” fields will be used for this purpose. The fields “Age” and “Gender” are not passed on to Microsoft. The user profile is used to identify and address participants in Microsoft SharePoint Online, which provides for an exchange of information. Our educational institution’s Microsoft 365 Education instance (“tenant”) is configured so that your child’s user profile data cannot be viewed by anyone. Further details can be found here.
The data transferred is stored by Microsoft Ireland in the Dublin and Amsterdam data centres of Microsoft Global Foundation Services, a business unit of Microsoft Corporation, USA, (“Microsoft Corp.”), which subcontracts Microsoft Ireland in this regard. Microsoft Corp. also uses subcontractors for various service activities in the operation of Microsoft 365. Since an adequate level of data protection comparable to the EU standards does not always exist outside Europe, including in the USA, the so-called EU standard contractual clauses have been concluded with Microsoft Corp. which guarantee an adequate level of data protection at Microsoft Corp. Microsoft Corp. concludes a contract with the subcontractors that is similar in content to the EU standard contractual clauses. This ensures that all parties involved commit to the EU data protection standards.
For more details on the topic of data protection and data security in Office 365, visit Microsoft’s website at Trust Center.
As an enrolled member of codingclub.cc, your child can use the free cloud services SharePoint Online, Sway, Forms, Flow, ToDo, PowerApps and Exchange Online in addition to the online-based Microsoft 365 Apps package.

If we sell, divest or transfer our business, we will not transfer personal information of our customers unless the new owner intends to maintain and provide the Service as a going concern, and provided that the new owner has agreed to data privacy standards no less stringent than our own. In such case we will provide you with notice and an opportunity to opt-out of the transfer of personally identifiable Student Data.
In addition to the actions described above, Educody GmbH may facilitate the sharing of Student Data with third parties, though only when instructed and authorized to do so on behalf of the Junior Coding Club. Some elements of our Service enable the Junior Coding Club to interact with parents, students, teachers and third party applications, for the benefit of the student’s education. Educody GmbH does not facilitate the sharing of any Student Data with third parties on the Service except on behalf of the Junior Coding Club after the School has authorized a third party or application to access Student Data through the Service. Please remember that this Privacy Policy applies to the Educody GmbH and Junior Coding Club Services, and not other services or third party applications, which may have their own privacy policies. Parents should carefully read the privacy practices of each third party application before agreeing to engage with the application through the Service.
We store our data in Germany and the United States and we take strong measures to keep data safe and secure.
Any information collected through the Service is stored and processed in Germany and in the United States. If you use our Service outside of Germany or the United States, you consent to have your data transferred to Germany and the United States.
Educody GmbH maintains strict administrative, technical and physical procedures to protect information stored in our servers, which are located in Germany. Access to information is limited (through user/password credentials and two factor authentication) to those employees who require it to perform their job functions. We use industry-standard Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption technology to safeguard the account registration process and sign-up information. Other security safeguards include but are not limited to data encryption, firewalls, and physical access controls to building and files.
Access to the CC School account is only possible after entering the student’s personal password. Students should always keep your access information confidential and close the browser window when you have finished communicating with us, especially if you are sharing the computer with others.
Students are encouraged to log out at the end of the lesson if they are using applications on digital devices that are shared by multiple users, usually other students.
To prevent unauthorised access to your personal data by third parties, the connection is encrypted using TLS technology.
If there is any disclosure or access to any personally identifiable Student Data by an unauthorized party, we will promptly notify the affected Parents and will use reasonable efforts to cooperate with their investigation of the incident.
Parents may update account information and modify Services by signing into the Parents account. Parents and other website visitors can opt-out of receiving promotional email from us by clicking on the “unsubscribe” feature at the bottom of each email. Sorry, you cannot unsubscribe from Service-related messaging.
If you have any questions about reviewing or modifying account information, contact us directly by visiting our Help Center.
Student Data is provided and controlled by the Junior Coding Club. If you have any questions about reviewing, modifying, or deleting personal information of a student, please contact us directly.
If a contractual relationship between you as a customer and Educody GmbH expires or is terminated, we deactivate the CC School Account so that it is no longer usable and accessible. As many parents only pause the contractual relationship and re-register their child at a later point in time, e.g. for the participation of holiday camps, we delete the CC School Account completely and irrevocably after a blocking period of 12 months.
If you as a customer do not wish to have the password-protected CC School Account paused / deactivated, you can of course cancel it at any time. Please send us a request in text form (e.g. e-mail, letter) to our contact address.
Following termination or deactivation of a Junior Coding Club account, Educody GmbH may retain profile information and content for a commercially reasonable time for backup, archival, or audit purposes, but any and all Student Data associated with the Junior Coding Club will be deleted promptly. We may maintain anonymized or aggregated data, including usage data, for analytics purposes. If you have any questions about data retention or deletion, please contact us by visiting our Help Center.
Educody GmbH does not knowingly collect any information from children under the age of 13 unless and until the Junior Coding Club has obtained appropriate parental consent for the student to use the Service. Because Educody GmbH collects and uses Student Data at the direction of and under the control of the Junior Coding Club, Educody GmbH relies on the Junior Coding Club to provide appropriate notice to parents of the School’s use of third party service providers such as Educody GmbH, and for the Junior Coding Club to provide consent, if necessary, and authorisation for Educody GmbH to collect Student Data, as permitted by the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). Please contact us at privacy@codingclub.cc if you believe we have inadvertently collected personal information of a child under 13 without proper consent so that we may delete such data as soon as possible.
We are not responsible for the practices employed by websites, applications or services linked to or from our Service. We will always review the privacy policies of other applications before authorising a third party to access data through the Service.
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or the Service, we recommend contacting us by visiting our Help Center.
If you have any questions about the processing of your personal data, you can contact our data protection officer directly at any time. E-Mail: datenschutz@educody.com Phone: +49 69 21009822
If you are not satisfied with our response, you can contact the iKeepSafe Safe Harbor Program’s dedicated consumer complaint department at: coppaprivacy@ikeepsafe.org
If a Student contacts the Junior Coding Club with a question about our Service, we will collect personal information from that Student only as necessary to respond to the Student’s request and we will then delete or anonymize the personal data of the Student after providing our response.
