Pinnacle Blooms Network collects only what's needed to support a child's development: identification and contact details, developmental and medical history, parent concerns and goals, and structured clinical observations from assessment and therapy. This information is never sold, is access-limited to the care team, and parents stay in control.

*You're trusting us with your child — so you deserve to know exactly what we hold, and why.*

## In short
We collect only what we genuinely need to understand your child's development and support their journey: basic identification details, developmental and (where relevant) medical history, your concerns and goals, and the structured observations gathered during assessment and therapy. We do not sell your child's information, and you remain in control of it. Everything we keep exists for one purpose — to help your child progress with clarity and care.

## What we typically collect
**To know your child**
- Name, date of birth, gender, and your contact details as the parent or guardian
- Relevant developmental history — milestones, early concerns, and family observations
- Medical and health background you choose to share, where it helps care

**To support the journey**
- Your concerns, priorities and goals for your child
- Structured assessment observations gathered by our clinicians
- Therapy session notes, progress measures and plans over time

**How it is used and protected**
- Used to assess, plan, deliver and review your child's therapy — and to keep you informed
- Handled under India's data-protection norms, with access limited to the clinicians and staff involved in your child's care
- Never sold; shared only with your consent or where law requires it

You can ask what we hold, request corrections, and raise any privacy question at any time.

## The Pinnacle way
Across 70+ centres and 4.95 lakh+ families served, the same principle holds: information is collected to serve your child, never to label them. A clinical [AbilityScore®](/ask/what-is-the-abilityscore-and-how-is-it-calculated) and any diagnosis are formed only at a Pinnacle Blooms Network centre, under qualified clinician care — never from a form or an app. When you [enrol](https://www.pinnacleblooms.org/enroll-autism-speech-aba-therapies-india), you'll see exactly what we record and why, and your family stays in control throughout.
