Welcome to Danceable (“Danceable,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). Your privacy is important to us, and we are committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your information when you use the Danceable mobile and web application, website, and related services (collectively, the “Services”).

By accessing or using our Services, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with this policy, please do not use our Services.

1.3 Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies, pixels, and similar tracking technologies (“Cookies”) on our website and in our web app to:

Types of Cookies we may use:

• Essential Cookies: Required for core functionality (e.g., secure login, account management).

• Marketing/Advertising Cookies: Used to deliver relevant ads and track campaign performance. These are optional and may be disabled where tools are provided.

Cookie Preferences and Opt‑Out Tools

Where required by law, we will present a cookie banner or preferences tool that allows you to accept or reject non‑essential Cookies (such as marketing/advertising Cookies). You can also manage or disable Cookies through your browser or device settings, although some features may not function properly if certain Cookies are disabled.

If we use advertising or analytics tools that are considered “selling” or “sharing” personal information under applicable law, we will provide additional opt‑out mechanisms (for example, a “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” or equivalent link) where required.

When you request deletion of your account, we will delete or anonymize personal data under our control, subject to data we are required or permitted to retain (for example, certain transaction records for tax, accounting, or legal purposes). Our payment processors may retain payment information in accordance with their own legal obligations and policies.

6. Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to:

• Resolve disputes and enforce our agreements

The specific retention period may vary depending on the type of data and applicable laws. For example:

  Retained for as long as your account is active. If you request account deletion, we will delete or anonymize this data except where we are required or permitted to retain it.

• Transaction Records and Billing Information:
  Retained as required for tax, accounting, and legal purposes (often for a period of 3–7 years, depending on jurisdiction).

• Support Messages and Communications:
  Retained for as long as necessary to provide support, resolve disputes, and improve our Services.

• Marketing Preferences and Opt‑Out Records:
  Retained as needed to honor your preferences and demonstrate compliance with applicable laws, or until you update or delete your preferences.

When we no longer need your data, we will delete it, anonymize it, or securely store it until deletion is possible.

7. Data Security

We use reasonable and appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or access.

However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. International Data Transfers

Our Services may be operated from and data may be processed in countries other than the country where you reside. These countries may have different data protection laws. Where required, we implement appropriate safeguards (such as standard contractual clauses) to protect your personal data when it is transferred internationally.

9. Children’s Privacy

Our Services are not directed to children under the age of 13 (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under this age. If we become aware that we have collected such information, we will take steps to delete it. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us.

12. California Privacy Rights

If you are a California resident, you may have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) and related regulations.

12.1 Categories of Personal Information We Collect
