Varsity Tutors LLC

Varsity Tutors is a major online learning platform that connects students of all ages with tutors and experts for personalized instruction across more than 3,000 subjects. The service provides one-on-one tutoring, group classes, and test preparation, utilizing its platform to match learners with vetted instructors. To facilitate this matching process, Varsity Tutors collects a range of personal information from its users, including students who may be minors, to create detailed profiles and personalized learning plans. While not a traditional data broker that sells information, the storage of sensitive user data, including academic needs and contact details, presents privacy risks. In the event of a data breach, this information could be exposed, potentially leading to identity theft, fraud, or targeted harassment of students and their families. To protect their information, users should be mindful of the data they provide, review the company's privacy policies, and utilize the provided contact channels for any privacy-related requests.
