California law makes a distinction between organizations that process Personal Data for their own purposes (known as "businesses") and organizations that process Personal Data on behalf of other organizations (known as "service providers"). Depending on the circumstances, e-dancer may act as either a business or service provider with respect to your Personal Data. If you have a question or a complaint about how your Personal Data is handled, these should always be directed to the relevant business since they are the ones with primary responsibility for your Personal Data.
For example, if you create an account with us to organize your events, e-dancer will be a business with respect to the Personal Data that you provide as part of your account. We will also be a business as to the Personal Data that we have obtained about the use of our Platform, which could relate to Organizers or Consumers. We use this to conduct research and analysis to improve our Platform and provide you with more relevant recommendations about events we think may be of interest to you.
However, if you register for an event as a Consumer, we will process your Personal Data to help administer that event on behalf of the Organizer (for example, sending confirmation, promotional and feedback emails, processing payments, etc.) and to help the Organizer target, and understand the success of their event. In these circumstances, e-dancer merely provides the tools for Organizers. Any questions that you may have relating to your Personal Data and your rights under California law should therefore be directed to the Organizer as the business, not to e-dancer.
If you are a California resident, California law requires us to provide you with some additional information regarding how we collect, use, and share your “personal information” (as defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”)).
Throughout our Privacy Policy, we describe the specific pieces of personal information we collect, the sources of that information, and how we share it. Under the CCPA, we also have to provide you with the "categories" of personal information we collect and disclose for “business purposes” (as those terms are defined by applicable law). Those categories are identifiers (such as name, address, and email address); commercial information (such as transaction data); financial data (such as credit card and other financial account information); internet or other network or device activity (such as IP address); geolocation information (general location); inference data about you; physical characteristics or description (such as when you voluntarily submit a photo); and other information that identifies or can be reasonably associated with you.
We collect the above categories of personal information from the following sources: (1) directly from you; (2) through your use of our Platform; (3) agents/service providers; (4) affiliates; (5) third parties such as social networks, marketing partners, and credit reporting agencies; (6) organizers; and (7) consumers.
We or our service providers may collect the above categories of information for the following business or commercial purposes:
We may also use the above categories of Personal Data for compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and we may combine the information we collect (“aggregate”) or remove pieces of information (“de-identify”) to limit or prevent identification of any particular user or device.
We describe our information sharing practices in our Privacy Policy. We may share certain categories of personal information with third parties for business purposes. For example, we may share identifiers, commercial information, and general location with organizers. If you connect your e-dancer account with social media services, interact with social media plugins or links on the Platform, we may share identifiers, commercial information, internet or other network or device activity, or general location with those social media services.
If you are a California resident, you may have certain rights. California law may permit you to request that we:
You may have the right to receive information about the financial incentives that we offer to you (if any). You also have the right to not be discriminated against (as provided for in applicable law) for exercising certain of your rights. Certain information may be exempt from such requests under applicable law. For example, we need certain types of information so that we can provide our services to you. If you ask us to delete your Personal Data, you may no longer be able to access or use our Platform.
You may exercise your California consumer rights by email. You will be required to verify your identity before we fulfill your request. To do so, you will need to provide us with certain account information, such as the full name and email address you used to create your account and your most recent event or ticket purchase. You can also designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. To do so, you must provide us with written authorization for the agent to act on your behalf. You will still need to verify your identity directly with us.
The CCPA sets forth certain obligations for businesses that “sell” Personal Data. Based on the definition of “sell” under the CCPA and under current regulatory guidance, we do not believe we engage in such activity. We do share certain information as set forth in Section 6 of the Privacy Policy and allow third parties to collect certain information about your activity, for example through cookies, as explained in our Cookies Policy. For more information on how you can control or opt out of these cookies, please see the Cookies Policy.
We do not share personal information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes.
