Privacy Policy

Information Collection

Afiwi Groove School collects personal information needed to manage program registrations, trial class requests, participant communication, safety, and related program activities. This may include names, email addresses, phone numbers, participant age or date of birth, parent/guardian information, emergency contact details, medical or accessibility notes, and registration preferences.

Use of Information

Personal information is used to process registrations, manage classes and programs, communicate updates, confirm attendance, support participant safety, send important announcements, respond to inquiries, and improve Afiwi’s programs and services.

Afiwi may also use website and registration data to understand how people find and interact with our website, including through tools such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Wix, Dance Studio Pro, Zapier, and other platforms used to manage communications, registrations, reporting, and program operations.

Sharing of Information

Afiwi Groove School does not sell personal information. Personal information may be shared only when necessary to deliver programs, manage registrations, process communications, operate our website, comply with legal requirements, or work with trusted service providers that support Afiwi’s operations. These providers are expected to protect personal information and use it only for the purpose of providing services to Afiwi.

Children and Youth Information

Because Afiwi provides programs for children and youth, personal information about participants under the age of majority should be submitted by a parent or legal guardian. Afiwi uses this information only for program registration, communication, safety, and participation-related purposes.

Data Security

Afiwi takes reasonable steps to protect personal information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or disclosure. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Parents, guardians, participants, and website users may request access to their personal information, ask for corrections, or request deletion of their information by contacting Afiwi Groove School at info@afiwigroove.com. Some information may need to be retained where required for legal, financial, safety, or administrative purposes.
