This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit https://scdancephilly.com (our "website"), how we use it, and the choices you have. We've tried to write this in plain, friendly language.

By using our website, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you have any questions, please reach out using the contact details at the end.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, we automatically collect certain technical information when you visit, including your IP address and approximate (city/region-level) location, your browser and device type, the pages you visit and links you click, and the date and time of your visit. This helps us understand how our website is used and keep it safe.

Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies (small text files stored on your device) and similar technologies, mainly for website analytics. See "Cookies & Analytics" below for details and how to opt out.

Email Marketing & Your Choices

If you subscribe to our newsletter, we'll send you a welcome email and periodic updates about classes, events, and studio news. You are always in control: every marketing email includes an unsubscribe link and a way to manage your preferences, you can unsubscribe at any time, and you can email us at [email protected] to be removed. We follow the U.S. CAN-SPAM Act.

Cookies & Analytics

We use Google Analytics and Google Search Console (via Google Site Kit) to understand how people find and use our website. These tools use cookies and collect usage data such as pages viewed, time on site, general location based on IP address, and device/browser. You can refuse or delete cookies in your browser settings, install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, and read the Google Privacy Policy.

Third-Party Services

  • Google (Analytics & Search Console): website analytics. See the Google Privacy Policy.
  • Cloudflare: we use Cloudflare as a CDN/caching layer and Cloudflare Turnstile to protect our forms from spam and bots; Cloudflare processes some technical data such as your IP address. See the Cloudflare Privacy Policy.
  • Square: donation payments are processed securely by Square; our website does not collect or store your card details. See the Square Privacy Policy.

How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We also don't rent or trade it. We share information only with service providers who help us operate our website (listed above), when required by law, or to protect the rights and safety of our website, visitors, or the public.

Data Retention

We keep contact form messages as long as needed to respond and for our records, newsletter information until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it, and analytics data per our Google Analytics settings. When we no longer need your information, we take reasonable steps to delete it.

Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information, including serving our website over a secure (HTTPS) connection and relying on established providers such as Square and Cloudflare. However, no method of transmitting or storing information over the internet is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children's Privacy

Second Chance Dance offers programs for adults, and our website is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or under 16 where a higher age applies). If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, and opt out of our newsletter at any time. California residents: under the CCPA you have the right to know what personal information we collect and how we use it, to request access or deletion, and not to be discriminated against for exercising these rights. We do not sell your personal information. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below; we may need to verify your identity first.
