Privacy Policy
Effective Date: April 5, 2025
At JazzTapClass.com, we are committed to protecting your privacy and safeguarding the personal information of our users — especially the children we all care so much about. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect the information you share with us through our website, online programs, and services.
Our website is designed for parents, dance teachers, and studio owners to help support the educational journey of children, particularly in recreational dance. While our materials are designed to be used with children, we do not collect personal information directly from children under 18.
1. Who We Are
JazzTapClass.com provides online resources, lesson plans, training videos, and educational materials designed to help dance teachers and parents better support children’s growth in dance.

- Purchase history and subscription details
Internet or Network Activity:
- Usage data (pages visited, time spent, device information, IP address) via cookies (see Section 7)
User-Generated Content:

- Media submissions (with confirmation of legal permission if children appear)
We do not knowingly collect or store personal information from children under 18. If we learn that a child has provided us with personal information, we will delete it immediately.

4. Protecting Children’s Privacy
We may share your personal information with:
Service Providers: Third-party companies that help us operate our business (payment processors, email services, video hosting platforms, analytics providers). These providers are contractually required to protect your information and use it only for the services they provide to us.

We have not sold or shared personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising purposes in the preceding 12 months.
5. Protecting Children’s Privacy (COPPA Compliance)
Our programs are designed to be used with adult supervision. Parents and teachers are responsible for guiding students through the materials. We encourage all adults to be mindful of children’s digital safety when accessing or sharing content.
We comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). Our services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18. If a child appears in any user-submitted media, the submitting adult confirms they have legal permission to share the image or video.
If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child, please contact us immediately at info@jazztapclass.com so we can delete it.
