This Privacy Policy describes the use of information collected by Nemours Children’s Health’s Wellness Workbook for Early Care & Education (ECE). Please read the entire policy carefully to understand what information is collected, how it is used and protected.

Registration Information Collected and Program Assessment Information
Use of the Wellness Workbook for ECE is completely voluntary. By registering with the Wellness Workbook for ECE you will be providing information about yourself and your child care program. No information about any specific child is collected. You may provide only the information you feel comfortable sharing. Nemours Children’s staff may review your registration information and information collected through the Program Assessments.

If you are using the Wellness Workbook as part of a formal training and technical assistance project then your registration information and program assessment answers may be viewed or shared with a trained technical assistance provider or coach. You will receive direct support from the trainer or coach and know their name. If known at the time of registration, you will be asked to provide the name of the Trainer assigned to support you in improving practices and policies in your child care program. This trainer will review your program assessment results to understand how best to support you and provide technical resources as needed. Nemours Children’s may be asked to provide summary reporting data to partners like state departments of health or funders to understand and track participation. No personally identifiable data will be shared. We will do our best to keep your information confidential and anonymous. All data is stored in a password protected electronic format. Information related to child care programs will only be presented in aggregate.
