This policy explains how Copyforge Grove (“we”, “us”) processes personal data when you browse our site, purchase courses, or participate in cohorts.

8. Your Rights

Subject to law, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, or portability of your data, and you may object to processing or withdraw consent. We will verify identity before fulfilling requests.

9. Children

Our services are not directed to children under 16. If we learn that a child provided personal data, we will delete it.
