 (“Website”) is owned and administered by Boom Gate Enterprises Pty Limited.

This policy gives a broad overview of our policies in relation to privacy but if you require further information, you are welcome to contact us or to read any of the privacy statements or notices that will be issued to you as and when personal information is collected. 

You must read this privacy policy before providing us with any personal information or using the Website. By providing us with your personal information and using the Website, you are confirming your agreement and consent to the policies and procedures described in this privacy policy. 

We will only collect from you information that is necessary and relevant to our relationship with you, including to enable us to provide to you the best possible service and customer experience. 

Depending on the exact nature of our relationship with you, we may request that you provide some or all of the following information:

• Information that we may require to identify you, including your name, home address, email addresses or other IP addresses and server details, and your date of birth; 
• Information that we can use to contact you, including your telephone number, mobile number, email address, work address, mailing address, next of kin or nominated contact details; 
• Information we may require to confirm your identity, including your driver’s licence number, tax file number, passport details, business name, domain names, or health related cards (Medicare card); 
• Information that may assist us to confirm your financial position or credit history, business dealings or company credit information. This may include your credit card details, bank details, bank statements, tax file numbers, purchase history or transaction details and loan and credit information where finance arrangements apply.
• Information that identifies your activity details including access and visits to our websites, data portals, web pages, platforms for which we have designed, maintained and compiled for your benefit. 
  

It would be very unusual for us to need to collect all or even most of the above information from you, however the information we will require will depend on the specific service or services that we are providing to you. We will only collect personal information from you that we reasonably require in order to satisfactorily perform the services that you require from us including using your personal information to aggregate your activities to assist in the management and operation of our website, services, performance benchmarking, portals or platforms maintained for your use. 

There are various reasons why we might need to collect, hold, use or disclose your personal information and this will depend upon the specific services that we are providing to you but we will tell you the main reason for asking for your personal information at the time when we ask you to provide it. 

Usually, the main reason that we will need to collect your personal information will be relating to a product or service that we are providing to you or are about to provide to you and for contacting you in relation to those services. Our main services include the provision of children’s entertainment, dance instruction and tuition, choreography and dance modules for learning and educational purposes. 

We may also use your personal information for other reasons, including: 

• To contact you in relation to an event, special offer or product that you might be interested in; 
• Preventing fraud and other criminal activities (or suspected activities); 
• To assist us to run our business and to improve our services and performance, including staff training, accounting, risk management, record keeping, archiving, systems development, developing new products and services and undertaking planning, research and statistical analysis; and 
• To comply with our legal obligations. 
  

There is no obligation for you to provide us with any of your personal information but if you choose not to provide us with your personal information, we may not be able to provide the information, goods or services that you require. 

The means by which we collect your personal information will depend on the nature of the service that we are providing to you. 

 We may collect your personal information: 

1. Directly from you, either in person or over the phone;

Cookies may record information about your visit, including the type of browser and operating system you use, the previous site you visited, your server’s IP address, the pages you access and the information downloaded by you. While this anonymous statistical data may be aggregated and used in broader statistical analysis by us and our web monitoring service provider to improve our services, at no time can we personally identify you as the source of that data. 

Where we are collecting your personal information, we will remind you of the following at the time of collecting your personal information:

We deal with third party service providers including but not limited to Federal or state based law enforcement agencies, who may assist us with a variety of functions including with research, mail and delivery, security, insurance, professional advisory (including legal, accounting and auditing advice), banking, payment processing, facilitating credit arrangements, credit reporting, fraud checks, data storage, information processing, order tracking, marketing, product reviews, online competitions, responding to customer queries and complaints or technology services. By agreeing to accept the terms of this privacy policy or by providing your personal information to us, or both, you are taken to have consented to us disclosing your personal information to our third party service providers. Where we engage third party service providers to perform services for us, those third parties may be required to handle or deal with your personal information. Under these circumstances, those third parties must safeguard this information and must only use it for the purposes for which it was supplied and we will make all reasonable enquiries to try to ensure that this is the case. 

 Wherever possible, we will limit the information provided to independent third parties to that information required for those third parties to properly perform their functions. Further, our contracts with these third parties will always require the third parties to comply with the APPs (or equivalent standards). 

Do we use your personal information for marketing purposes? 

As part of the services that we provide to you, we may: 

1. Use personal information that we have collected about you to identify a product or service that may benefit you; 
2. Contact you from time to time to let you know about a product or service that we believe you might be interested in; and 
3. Disclose your personal information to our related entities, any one or more of the Recipient Parties or to our business partners (including third party facilitators) to enable them to tell you about a product or service that you might be interested in. 
   

By providing your personal information to us or by agreeing to accept the terms of this privacy policy, or both, you consent to your personal information being included in our database to be used for direct marketing purposes, including those described above, however, you can opt-out, unsubscribe or make a request not receive direct marketing communications from us, by emailing us at support@readyset.dance or by logging such a request through the Website at any time. Additionally, each direct marketing communication, including all emails and SMS, will include an opt-out or “unsubscribe” option which will immediately indicate to us that you no longer wish to receive materials of this kind. If you make a request not to receive direct marketing communications from us, we will stop sending you these materials. 

You may make a request that we do not disclose your personal information to facilitate direct marketing by another organisation and you may request that we provide you with the source of any personal information we use for direct marketing purposes. Any such requests will be actioned within a reasonable period and there will be no charges to you for making, or to you from us actioning, such requests. 

We have implemented appropriate processes and techniques (including physical security such as locks and security systems and computer and network security, including firewalls and passwords) to protect personal information from loss, misuse and interference and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. In addition, access to your personal information is limited to those who specifically need it to conduct their responsibilities. 

We and our third party service providers take all necessary steps to destroy or permanently de-identify your personal information where it is no longer required and to protect your personal information from loss, misuse and interference and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. 

While care is taken to protect your personal information on the Website, unfortunately no data transmission over the Internet is guaranteed as 100% secure. Accordingly, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you send to us or receive from us online. This is particularly true for information you send to us via email as we have no way of protecting that information until it reaches us. Once we receive your personal information, we are required to protect it in accordance with the Act. 

Will we disclose your personal information to anyone overseas? 

There may be circumstances where we need to disclose personal information that we hold about you to a third party overseas (“Overseas Recipients”). This may occur, for example, where we have a database or server hosted outside Australia or where you are interacting with an application which is based overseas. 

Prior to us disclosing your personal information to an Overseas Recipient, we have an obligation under APP 8.1 to take reasonable steps to ensure that the Overseas Recipient does not breach the APPs in relation to your personal information, as well as an obligation under APP 6 to only disclose your personal information to an Overseas Recipient for the primary purpose for which that personal information was collected (unless an exception applies under APP 6) (the “Overseas Disclosure Obligations”).

We will take all reasonable steps to satisfy our Overseas Disclosure Obligations. 

The countries to which we are most likely to send your personal information include the United States of America and the United Kingdom. 

Usually we will be able to provide you with access to your personal information upon receipt of your written request, either by email sent to Boom Gate, at support@readyset.dance or by post sent to 31C Koonya Circuit CARINGBAH NSW 2229, and confirmation of your identity. 

This Website may contain links to websites which are owned or operated by other parties. You should make your own enquiries as to the privacy policies of these parties. We are not responsible for information on, or the privacy practices of, such websites. 

From time to time it may be necessary for us to review and revise this privacy policy. We reserve the right to change our privacy policy at any time. 

Please find below our contact details. Please do not hesitate to contact us in relation to any privacy-related concerns and we will use our best endeavours to address any such concerns thoroughly and in a timely manner.
