What Northside Dance Co. collects, why, who handles it, and how our text messages work.
What we collect
- Parent/guardian names, email addresses, mobile numbers and mailing addresses.
- Student names, birth dates, class enrollments, attendance and class history.
- Billing records: tuition charges, payments, credits and balances. Card and bank details are entered on Stripe's pages and stored by Stripe; we never see or keep full card numbers.
- Messages you send us through the website, such as lesson enquiries and enrollment requests.
How we use it
- To run classes: schedules, attendance, cancellations and performance information.
- To bill tuition and fees and keep accurate account records.
- To send studio emails and, if you opt in, text messages.
- Newsletter emails go only to people who signed up or are enrolled families who haven't unsubscribed. Every newsletter has an unsubscribe link; unsubscribing never stops essential emails about your student's classes.
Who else handles it
- Stripe processes payments.
- Amazon Web Services hosts this website and its data, and delivers our emails and text messages.
- We do not sell or rent personal information, and we do not share it with anyone for their own marketing.
Text messages
- Northside Dance Co. texts only numbers whose owners opted in, on our enrollment form, their preferences page or when registering with the studio.
- Texts cover class reminders, schedule changes and account notices. Message frequency varies. Msg & data rates may apply.
- Reply STOP at any time to stop all texts from Northside Dance Co.; reply START to resume. Reply HELP for help.
- Texts are sent through StudioRhino on Northside Dance Co.'s behalf.
- Mobile numbers and SMS opt-in consent are never shared with or sold to third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.
Class photos and videos
- Teachers may share notes, photos, videos and files with the families of the students in a class. These are stored privately and shown only to signed-in families whose student the post is for, and to studio staff.
- A student appears in class photos or videos shared with other families only if their family said yes on the season forms; no answer counts as no.
- Removed posts are deleted from storage after 30 days.
Cookies
- We use only the cookies needed to keep staff and families signed in. There is no advertising or cross-site tracking, and our visit counting uses no cookies.
