Privacy Policy

Effective Date: 2026-08-12 Version: 1.5 Owner: Abrazo Software LLC Privacy contact: privacy@abrazo.dev

1. Who we are

DanceSanctum is a video platform for the social-dance community, operated by Abrazo Software LLC ("Abrazo," "we," "us"), a company based in Chicago, Illinois. This policy explains what personal data we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and your rights. It supplements the Abrazo platform privacy practices; where this product-specific policy conflicts with a general Abrazo notice, this policy governs for DanceSanctum.

2. Prividnote and the optional DanceSanctum handoff

Prividnote is a standalone iPhone video notebook from Abrazo Software LLC. It does not use an Abrazo account. During ordinary use, Prividnote version 1.0 has no advertising, application analytics, crash-upload service, custom backend, cloud library, or remote transcription service. The videos a person selects or records, plus transcripts, searches, labels, notes, corrections, saved vocabulary, moments, groups, and sessions, stay in app-owned storage on the iPhone.

Apple-managed services are separate from Abrazo. iOS may retrieve a selected file from iCloud Photos, prepare a speech-language asset, process a StoreKit purchase, or include app data in an Apple-managed device backup according to the person's Apple settings. Prividnote can also export a library, share a file through the iOS Share sheet, or save a recording copy to Photos when the person chooses that action.

The planned Prividnote action is called Send a copy to DanceSanctum. It is not included in Prividnote version 1.0. When it ships, the person will select the video and confirm the destination, audience, and shared metadata before transfer. The local original and notebook will stay in Prividnote. A transcript, note, person, place, topic, or local session label will not be included by default.

Once the confirmed copy reaches DanceSanctum, the DanceSanctum account, hosting, audience, retention, deletion, rights, and moderation practices in this policy and the applicable terms govern that copy. The Prividnote library on the iPhone remains separate.

3. Information we collect

4. How we use your information

Service analytics we generate ourselves. Separately from the opt-in analytics above, we record service events our systems already produce, for example a video unlocked, a subscription started, or a recap provisioned. These carry your account id, not your name or email, and only ids, fixed categories and statuses, booleans, amounts, and counts. They never include message content or user-entered free text. We use them to understand which features get used. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in running and improving the service (Article 6(1)(f)). This is not tracking on your device, so it is not part of the cookie banner. To object, email privacy@abrazo.dev.

We do not sell your personal information.

5. Legal basis for processing

Where GDPR applies, we rely on these legal bases under Article 6: performance of a contract, to stream videos you have access to and process purchases and entitlements; legitimate interests, to secure the platform, prevent fraud, and pay organizers accurately; and legal obligation, to keep records required by tax, accounting, or security law; and consent, when you choose to send personal data and private-library context to third-party AI providers or opt in to analytics.

6. Service providers (processors)

We share data with vendors who process it on our behalf, under contract and only as needed:

7. International transfers

Abrazo Software LLC is based in the United States, and our service providers are US-based. Where we transfer personal data from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we use an approved transfer mechanism where required, such as Standard Contractual Clauses or a provider's current certification under an applicable data privacy framework.

8. Organizers and attendees

Organizers who sell or host content on DanceSanctum act as independent controllers for the limited buyer information they receive to fulfill and support sales (for example, that a sale occurred and basic order details). Organizers must handle that information lawfully and only for the purpose of operating their events and content. Payout, tax, and content-licensing terms between organizers and Abrazo are governed by the Terms of Service and any applicable organizer agreement.

Videos, event media, Community profiles, Community practice attempts, and returned feedback can be reported from the app. We review reports, may limit or remove content or Community access, and apply our terms and repeat-abuse rules. A public Community profile can also be blocked from discovery without changing a membership or payment. Contact privacy@abrazo.dev if an in-app report concerns your likeness, privacy, or safety.

9. Biometric data

DanceSanctum does not collect, capture, or store biometric identifiers or biometric information (such as a scan of face geometry) as defined under the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act. If we introduce any optional feature that would process biometric data, we will first obtain your separate written consent and publish a specific biometric data policy.

10. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or port your personal data, and to object to or restrict certain processing. You can schedule deletion from Account and data in the app. That one request covers the shared sign-in identity, DanceSanctum activity, Coach conversations and memory, notifications, provider identifiers, and analytics identifiers. Community account cleanup removes favorites and discovery blocks, closes or de-identifies personal Community authority, and schedules eligible private media cleanup. Moderation, rights, payment, delivered-feedback, organization-controlled, and shared records may remain under their documented retention rules. We delete or de-identify other associated personal data unless a documented legal, financial, organization-controlled, or shared-record reason requires retention. Email privacy@abrazo.dev if you need help with a request already started. We honor verified requests within the timeframes required by applicable law (for example, 30 days under GDPR, 45 days under CCPA). You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data-protection supervisory authority.

11. Retention

We keep personal data for as long as your account is active and as needed to provide the service, then delete or anonymize it within a reasonable period unless a longer retention is required for legal, tax, security, moderation, rights, or accounting purposes. Community policy acceptance ends with account deletion. Public profile favorites and blocks are deleted. Reports and delivered feedback follow the retention version recorded when they were created. See the Data Retention Policy for the current category-level rules.

12. Cookies

We use essential cookies, limited error-monitoring, and opt-in analytics. See our Cookie Policy for details and your choices.
