By directly integrating these services, we make your online experiences richer and more personalized.

We will try to comply with your request(s) as soon as reasonably practicable.

Administrative Correspondence. Please also note that if you do opt-out of receiving marketing-related emails from us, we may still send you messages for administrative or other purposes directly related to your participation in the Services, and you cannot opt-out of receiving those messages.

Retention of Personal Information

We retain Personal Information that you provide to us where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, as long as is required in order to contact you about our Services, or as required by applicable law).

We regularly review collected data and set data retention policies in order to delete data in accordance with contractual agreements, legal obligations and applicable data protection laws.

Children's Privacy

Protecting children's privacy is important to us. Our events may involve minors, including children under the age of 13, and we may collect Personal Information about them when a parent or legal guardian provides it to us. By providing us with Personal Information about a child, you represent and warrant that you are the child's parent or legal guardian, or that you otherwise have legal authority to do so, and we may rely on that representation.

Parents and legal guardians may review the Personal Information we have collected from their child under 13, request that we delete it, and refuse to permit further collection or use of their child's information by contacting us at legal@prodigydanceconvention.com.

Visitors to the Sites Outside of the United States

If you are visiting the Sites from a location outside of the U.S., your connection will be through and to servers located in the U.S. Information you receive from the Sites will or may be created on servers located in the U.S. All such information will be transferred to, processed, and stored in accordance with U.S. law and this Privacy Policy.

Updating Personal Information

We prefer to keep your Personal Information accurate and up to date. If you would like to change your contact information, please contact us as set forth above.

If so, we will make good faith efforts to make requested changes in our then active databases as soon as reasonably practicable (but we may retain prior information as business records). Please note that it is not always possible to completely remove or delete all of your information from our databases.

In addition, please note that if you implement a deletion request but later sign up for information or Services, your most recent request will control our information relationship with you.

Links

For your convenience, the Sites(s) and this Privacy Policy may contain links to other websites. Prodigy is not responsible for the privacy practices including their use of AI, advertising, products, services, or the content of those other websites.

Security

We incorporate commercially reasonable safeguards to help protect and secure your Personal Information. However, no data transmission over the Internet, mobile networks, wireless transmission, or electronic storage of information can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Please note that we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you use our Sites and provide us with your information at your own risk.

California Privacy Rights

Under the Shine the Light law, California residents may request certain information regarding Prodigy's disclosures in the prior calendar year, if any, of their Personal Data to third parties for the third parties' direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please contact us at legal@prodigydanceconvention.com.

Nevada Privacy Rights

If you are a Nevada resident, you have the right to request certain information from us regarding the collection and sale of your personal information (as defined in Nevada Revised Statutes 603A.320). To make this inquiry, please submit a request by contacting us at legal@prodigydanceconvention.com.

As a Nevada resident, you may also request to opt out of us sharing such information about you. We will process your request within 60 days, or we will let you know if we need additional time. We may require additional information to verify your identity before we can respond.

Global Privacy Control

Where required by applicable law (for example, in certain U.S. states), we recognize and honor Global Privacy Control ("GPC") and similar browser- or device-level opt-out preference signals as a request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information.

Do Not Track

Do Not Track ("DNT") is a web browser setting that requests that a web application disable its tracking of an individual user. When you choose to turn on the DNT setting in your browser, your browser sends a special signal to websites, analytics companies, advertising networks, plug-in providers, and other web services you encounter while browsing to stop tracking your activity.

International Data Transfers

Because Prodigy works with global companies and technologies, we may transfer your Personal Information outside of the country in which it was originally provided. This may include transfers to third countries that do not have data protection laws equivalent to those in your country. When we do so, we take appropriate measures to protect your information in accordance with applicable law.

Changes to Our Privacy Policy

If you have questions or concerns with respect to our Privacy Policy, you may contact us at legal@prodigydanceconvention.com. We may elect to change or amend our Privacy Policy; in such event we will post the policy changes to our Sites and update the "Last Updated" date above.

General Privacy Notice for US Residents

Residents of certain states in the United States may have additional rights in the future and Prodigy will update this policy as and when such laws become applicable to us.

This Supplemental Policy describes Prodigy's practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of Personal Information and provides instructions for submitting data subject requests.

This Notice does not apply to personal information that we process as a service provider on behalf of our customers.

Your Rights to Your Personal Information

Generally, the rights available to residents of the United States under various privacy laws can be categorized as follows:

  • Confirm whether we process their personal information.
  • Access and delete certain personal information.
  • Data portability.
  • Opt-out of personal data processing for targeted advertising and sales.
  • Correct inaccuracies in their personal information, taking into account the information's nature and processing purpose.
  • Opt-out of profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects.

Processing of Sensitive Information: We must obtain your express consent prior to collecting and processing certain categories of sensitive personal data such as precise geolocation data, data about protected characteristics and genetic or biometric data.

Non-Discrimination: Prodigy will not discriminate against customers who exercise their rights under state privacy laws.

Personal Information of Minors

Protecting children's privacy is important to us. For that reason, no part of our Sites is targeted to attract anyone under the age of 13. However, our events are targeted towards high school students, many of whom are under the age of 18. We also have events designed for dancers aged 12 and up.

Therefore, since the competitions do involve minors, including children under the age of 13, we may collect such information when their parent or guardian provides it to us for a particular purpose. For example, parents register their children as dancers for events. However, we do not solicit this information from the child directly.

If you provide us with information about a child, you represent and agree that you have the legal authority to do so and we may rely on that representation.

Financial Incentives for Consumers

We do not have any programs which provide financial incentives for consumers.

Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights

To exercise any of these rights, you can submit your request by contacting us at legal@prodigydanceconvention.com. We will respond to your privacy requests within 30 days and notify you of the action(s) we have taken or required steps to fulfill the request.

Only you or a person registered with the appropriate state authority that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.

You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period.

The verifiable consumer request must:

  • Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative.
  • Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you. Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.

For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
