Privacy Policy

The Dance Collective runs this website and the parent portal on it. This policy explains what we collect about you and your dancers, why, and who else ever sees it.

1004 D S. Mt. Olive St. Siloam Springs, AR 72761

Only what running a dance studio actually needs:

• Your account. Your name, email address and phone number. Your password is stored only as a one-way hash — nobody at the studio can read it, and we cannot tell you what it is.
• Your dancers. Each dancer's name and date of birth. The birthday decides which classes suit them and is not used for anything else. The studio may add notes about a dancer, such as an injury the teacher should know about.
• Classes and bookings. Which classes your dancers are enrolled in, trial class requests, private lesson bookings, and any cancellations.
• Billing. Invoices, payments and the payment plan you chose. Card numbers never reach us. Payments go through Stripe, and we keep only a reference Stripe gives us plus the card brand and last four digits, so you can see which card is saved.
• Forms you sign. Studio policies and waivers you have agreed to, with the date you agreed.
• Anything you send us. Messages submitted through the feedback form, and testimonials you choose to give.
• Some technical records. Failed sign-in attempts, so somebody cannot sit and guess your password, and the result of the check that tells a person apart from an automated script.

• Running your account and letting you sign in.
• Enrolling your dancers, scheduling classes and managing the waiting list.
• Sending invoices and taking payment.
• Getting in touch about classes, schedule changes and your account.
• Keeping the studio's own records of who attended what.

We do not use any of it to advertise to you, and we do not build a profile of you for anybody else.

If you give us your phone number when creating an account, we may send you a text message containing a link to finish setting up that account. Message frequency varies, and is usually a single message when you sign up. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to any message to stop receiving them.

We do not sell or share your SMS opt-in data or personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

We use a small number of companies to run the service. Each one only handles what it needs to do its job, and none of them may use your information for their own purposes:

• Vercel hosts the website.
• Supabase stores the database.
• Resend sends our email.
• Twilio sends our text messages.
• Stripe processes payments and holds card details.
• Cloudflare provides the check that stops automated signups.

We never sell your information. We would only hand it to anybody else if the law required it.

Everything we hold about a child is given to us by their parent or guardian, through this site or at the studio. We collect nothing directly from children, and children do not have accounts here. A dancer's details are visible to studio staff and to the guardians linked to that dancer, and to nobody else.

While you have an account with us, and afterwards for as long as our records need it — enrolment and payment history in particular, which the studio keeps for its accounts. Ask us to delete your account and we will, except where we are required to keep a financial record.

You can see and correct most of what we hold from inside your account. For anything you cannot reach, or to ask us to delete your account, get in touch and we will sort it out.
