Introduction
This Bright Horizons website uses cookies to distinguish you from other users of this website. This helps us to provide you with an optimised experience when you browse our website and allows us to make continual improvements to this website. A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that we store on your browser or hard drive of your device used to visit this website. This Global Cookie Notice provides you with information about cookies we use and how to control them for this website.
Terms used in this Cookie Notice
"Affiliate" - an affiliate is a website operator who can send traffic to our website using links from another website. The affiliate is paid an agreed commission from the referral by Bright Horizons.
"First-Party and Third-Party Cookies" - whether a cookie is 'first' or 'third' party refers to the domain placing the cookie. First-Party cookies are those set by us when visited by the user at the time - the website displayed in the URL window. Third-Party cookies are cookies that are set by a domain other than us. If a user visits our website and another entity sets a cookie through our website, then this would be a Third-Party cookie.
"Persistent Cookies" - these cookies remain on a user's device for the period of time specified in the cookie.
"Session Cookies" - these cookies allow us to link the actions of a user during a browser session. A browser session starts when a user opens the browser window and finishes when they close the browser. Session cookies are created temporarily and once you close the browser, all session cookies are deleted.
"Social Media Cookies" - these cookies are also known as "analytics cookies" and collect information about how visitors use our website. This information is aggregated to provide us insights in how the website is being used.
What's a Cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your computer or mobile device when you visit the website. Cookies are then sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognises that cookie, to develop a record of the user's online activity. Cookies on this website may be delivered in a first-party (set by the Bright Horizons website) or third-party (set by another website) context and may also be set in association with emails you receive from us.
Cookies help us enhance your experience when using the website. They also help us understand how people use our website, such as which pages are most popular, so that we can make continuous improvements for delivering an optimum experience.
Is a Cookie part of my personal data/information?
"Personal data," "personal information" and "personally identifiable information" have become common terms used across jurisdictions around world and are used in various statutes and regulations in different contexts and are assigned different meanings. For example, under the California Consumer Privacy Act 2018 (CCPA), the term "personal information" refers to any information that "identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household." The CCPA includes a non-exhaustive list of data types that fall within that definition. That list includes "unique personal identifiers," a term which itself is defined as including "cookies" that are used to "recognise a . . . device that is linked to a consumer or family, over time and across different services." In this context, certain cookies will be considered "personal information" for the purposes of the CCPA.
Similarly, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) defines personal data as "any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person." Where such link exists, then such a cookie becomes part of the set of "personal data."
Cookies Used on our Website
Not all cookies are the same or have the same purpose. We use the following five types of cookies on our website:
- Strictly Necessary Cookies
- Performance Cookies
- Functional Cookies
- Social Media Cookies
- Targeting Cookies

Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are also referred to as "first-party essential cookies" and "session cookies". These session cookies are essential to enable you to navigate the website and use its features, such as accessing secure areas of the website. These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function and can't be switched off in our systems. They're usually only set in response to actions made by you that amount to a request for services, such as booking a tour of a nursery or center; setting your privacy preferences; logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the website won't work as a result. These cookies don't store any personal data/information or personally identifiable information (PII).
Examples include:
- Remembering the settings you've applied to our website such as layout, font size, preferences, colours etc.
- Remembering a choice such as not to be asked again to fill in a questionnaire.
- Detecting if a service has already been offered, such as offering a tutorial on future visits to the website.
- Providing information to allow an optional service to function such as offering a live chat session.
- Fulfilling a request by you, such as submitting a comment.
Performance Cookies
These cookies are also referred to as "first-party cookies", "third-party cookies" or "performance cookies". These cookies allow us or third-parties to count visits, traffic sources and collect information about how visitors use our website. We do this so we can measure and optimise the user experience. For example, we can learn which pages visitors go to most often and if they get error messages from webpages. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous, so won't identify you personally. If you don't allow these cookies on the device you use to visit the website, we'll not know when you've visited our website and won't be to monitor its performance.
Examples include:
- Web analytics - where the data collected is used in managing the performance and design of the website. These cookies can be third-party cookies, but the information is for our exclusive use only of the publisher of the website visited.
- Advertising response rates - where the data is used exclusively for calculating response rates (click-through rates) to improve the effectiveness of advertising purchased on a site external to the destination website. This data can't be used to re-target adverts on a third-party site.
- Affiliate tracking - where the cookie allows the affiliate of Bright Horizons to improve the effectiveness of their website. This data can't be used to re-target adverts on a third-party site.
- Error management - this cookie measures errors presented on our website, typically this will be to support service improvement or complaint management and will generally be closely linked with web analytics.
- Testing designs - cookies allow us to test variations of website design, typically using A/B or multivariate testing, to ensure a consistent look and feel is maintained for the user of the website in the current and subsequent sessions.
Functional Cookies
These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies then some or all of these services may not function properly.
Examples include:
- Cookies which record your preferred settings to enable localisation functionality such as language.
- Cookies which ensure consistency in the information displayed to you (for instance, ensuring a consistent contact number for us is provided to you).
Targeting Cookies
These cookies may be set through our site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites. They don't store directly personal information, but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you don't allow these cookies, you'll experience less targeted advertising.
Examples include:
- Cookies may be used to limit the number times a user sees a particular ad on our website and to measure the effectiveness of a particular campaign.
- Cookies placed by advertising networks to collect browsing habits in order to target relevant adverts to the user. The website the user is visiting need not actually be serving adverts, but often this will also be the case.
- Cookies placed by advertising networks in conjunction with a service implemented by the website to increase functionality, such as commenting on a blog, adding a website to the user's social network, providing maps or counters of visitors to a website.
Social Media Cookies
These cookies are also referred to as "analytics cookies" and are always "third-party cookies". These cookies may be set through our website by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other websites. They don't store personal data/information directly but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you don't allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.
These cookies are set by a range of social media services, such as Facebook that we've added to the website to enable you to share our content with your friends and networks. These cookies can track your browser across other websites and building up a profile of your interests and can impact the content and messages you see on other websites you visit. If you don't allow these cookies you may not be able to use or see these social media sharing tools.
Examples include:
- Google Analytics cookies are used to collect information about how visitors use our website. These cookies collect information in the aggregate to give us insight into how our website is being used. We anonymise IP addresses in Google Analytics, and the anonymised data is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the US.
- Cookies may be used to collect personal information (such as name, pages visited, and purchase history) to link a visitor to the recipient of an email marketing campaign. This marketing cookie only stores your unique identifying browser and device information.
How do I Disable/Enable Cookies?

Effective: November 2020
Updated: November 2020
- Introduction
- What legal basis do we rely on to process your personal information?
- International Transfers
- Adherence to the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework
- What rights do you have over your personal information?
Introduction
We are disclosing information about our data processing practices as required by the United Kingdom's Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This DPA/GDPR Addendum supplements the information contained in the Bright Horizons Global Privacy Consumer Notice and applies exclusively to Consumers using Services in the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands and any other country within the European Economic Area.
What legal basis do we rely on to process your personal information?
Bright Horizons relies on the following legal basis for processing your personal information.
- Performance under a Contract: For Consumers, most of the personal information we process is necessary for us to perform our obligations under a contract we have with you, and, if applicable, your employer when you receive the Service as an employee benefit.
- Legal Obligations: For Consumers, there are many laws that require us to process your personal information. Examples include law and regulations for child/adult care, safeguarding, health and safety, tax and government funding.
- Legitimate Interest: For Consumers, we have a legitimate interest in processing some of your personal information in some circumstances. We will only process your personal information if our legitimate interests do not override your fundamental rights, freedoms and interests. For any questions regarding this legal basis, please contact our Global Privacy Officer at dataprivacy@brighthorizons.com.
Some examples of our legitimate interests include:
- Use of your email address to send you newsletters, invitations to webinars, or information about your services or new/enhanced Service updates.
- Analysing your IP and browser information to improve the website experience for you. 'Session' cookies help you navigate through BH websites efficiently and are temporary and 'persistent' cookies are small files left on your device that store your user preferences for current and successive visits to Bright Horizons websites. Learn more about how we use cookies and similar technologies.
- In some locations, we use Closed Circuit (CCTV) for security/safety of our consumers, staff and premises; to help prevent and detect crime; to support learning and training; and/or to defend legal claims.
- Recording your contact center calls to assist us with monitoring our policies and procedures; identifying opportunities for training and development; and improving Services to you.
- Special Categories of Personal Information: Depending upon the Services you receive, we may need to process special categories of personal information in order to evaluate whether Services are suitable for the care requested and/or to provide the Services safely and/or effectively. In some locations, government regulations/laws require us to process special categories of personal information and in some circumstances, you provide us your consent. Special categories of personal information that we may process include information relating to:
- Health data:
- when receiving adult/child care services, in order for us to provide the Services safely and/or in compliance with applicable law, you may need to provide us with health data of the dependent we care for (for example to inform us of allergies, medicines, special physical or educational requirements, health conditions). In addition, this type of information may be provided to us by a government body;
- when receiving personal or family coaching or special educational needs services, you may voluntarily provide us with health data about you / your dependents to enable us to provide the advice services.
- Religious beliefs: you may provide this information to us voluntarily when receiving child/adult care services (for example to inform us about dietary requirements or family celebrations, etc.);
- Race/ethnic origin: you may provide this information to us voluntarily when receiving College Coach services (for example to assist with identifying schools, scholarships, etc.);
- Trade union membership: your employer may provide this information to us to assist with determining levels of employee's eligibility for our EdAssist services;
- Sexual orientation: you may provide this information to us voluntarily when receiving Services (for example when completing spouse/partner information on childcare registration forms, to assist with identifying schools, to inform us of family celebrations and relationships, etc.)
- Health data:
International Transfers
We may process some of your personal information outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Whenever we transfer personal information out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by putting in place appropriate safeguards and protections.
For transfers to the United States, we rely on the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission that afford personal information the same protections it has in Europe and have completed appropriate risk assessments as required under the European Court of Justice ruling for Case C-311/18 Data Protection Commissioner v Facebook Ireland Ltd and Maximilian Schrems ("Schrems II").
Please contact the Global Privacy Officer at dataprivacy@brighthorizons.com if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal information out of the EEA.
Adherence to the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework
Bright Horizons Family Solutions LLC does not rely on the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework to transfer your personal information out of the European Economic Area. However, Bright Horizons Family Solutions LLC remains certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework and does comply with its requirements as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention of personal information we transfer from the United Kingdom and European Union to the United States. Bright Horizons Family Solutions LLC certified to the Department of Commerce that it adheres to the Privacy Shield Principles. The Federal Trade Commission has jurisdiction over our compliance with the Privacy Shield.
If there is any conflict between the terms in our Global Privacy Notice, DPA/GDPR Notice and the Privacy Shield Principles, the Privacy Shield Principles shall apply. Learn more about the Privacy Shield program and view our certification.
Under certain circumstances, you have the right to invoke binding arbitration for complaints regarding our Privacy Shield compliance that you have been unable to resolve through any of the other Privacy Shield mechanisms. Learn more about the binding arbitration mechanism.
In compliance with the Privacy Shield Principles, Bright Horizons Family Solutions LLC commits to the following:
- Resolve complaints about our collection or use of your personal information. If you have questions or complaints regarding our adherence to the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework, please contact our Global Privacy Officer at dataprivacy@brighthorizons.com or Pioneer House, 7 Rushmills, Northampton, NN4 7YB, United Kingdom.
- Cooperate with the panel established by the EU data protection authorities (DPAs) and comply with the advice given by the panel with regard to personal information transferred from the European Union.
- Remain responsible and liable for the processing of personal information we receive under the Privacy Shield and subsequently transfer to a third party acting as an agent on our behalf.
What rights do you have over your personal information?
You have the right to request:
- Access to the personal information we hold about you, free of charge in most cases.
- The rectification of your personal information to ensure that it's up-to-date, accurate and complete.
- The erasure of your personal information (subject to certain exemptions).
- We stop processing your personal information for direct marketing purposes (either through specific channels or all channels).
- We and other third parties cease processing your personal information when this was previously undertaken based on your consent and you've now withdrawn that consent.
Please contact the Global Privacy Officer at dataprivacy@brighthorizons.com if you would like to:
- access your personal information that is not available to you directly;
- request we erase your personal information; or
- exercise any of your other rights.
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.
In circumstances where we are processing your personal information based on our legitimate interest, you can ask us to stop for reasons connected to your individual situation. We must then do so unless we believe we have a legitimate overriding reason to continue processing your personal information that doesn't infringe your rights and freedoms. You have the right to challenge our decision to the Supervisory Authority or seek legal redress through the courts.
If you feel that your personal information hasn't been handled correctly, or you are unhappy with our response to any requests you have made regarding the use of your personal information, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the relevant Supervisory Authority.
