Some Lenses & Brushes programs are designed for children and teenagers. Registration for minors should be completed by a parent or legal guardian.

We may collect limited information about youth participants when reasonably necessary to administer a class, camp, workshop, or event. This may include a participant’s name, age, emergency contact information, accommodations, and information needed for program safety.

Our website is not intended for children under 13 to independently provide personal information. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from a child under 13 without appropriate parental or guardian involvement and consent. A parent or guardian who believes a child has submitted information without permission may contact us to request its removal.

We do not use identifiable photographs of participants for advertising or promotional purposes unless we have received appropriate permission through a photo release, registration agreement, or other consent process.

Artwork or photographs created during a program will not be publicly attributed to a participant without permission when attribution would reveal personal information.
