Dance With A Partner
Last updated: 16 October 2026
Protecting You
Dance With A Partner ("we", "us", "our") is the trading name of Jenni Kravitz. We are committed to protecting your privacy. We only use the information we collect about you lawfully, in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the Data Protection Act 2018 and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR), together with any amendments to them.
This policy applies to our website, dancewithapartner.co.uk (the "Website"), and to all our dance classes, lessons, events and other services (the "Services"). It also applies to dance partners and teachers who apply to work with us or who provide services to us.
This policy explains what information we collect about you, how we use it and, just as importantly, how we will not use it. We will never collect sensitive information about you without your explicit consent. We aim to keep the information we hold accurate and up to date, and if you find any inaccuracies, we will correct or delete them promptly.

The Information We Collect
If you book or enquire about classes
We collect personal information that you give us when you book a class, lesson or event, sign up to our mailing list, complete a form on our Website, or contact us. Depending on what you do, this may include:
• your first and last name;
• your email address and telephone number;
• your postal address, if we need to send you an invoice;
• details of the classes, lessons or events you have booked or attended, and your dance experience;
• payment details. Card payments are processed securely by our payment provider, and we do not see or store your full card details. If you pay by bank transfer, we see your name and the amount paid in our bank account.
Health information
If you choose to tell us about an injury, health condition or anything else that may affect your dancing, we will use it only to keep you safe in class and to adapt the class for you where we can. We will only share it with your teacher or dance partner if you agree. This type of information is "special category" data, and we only use it with your explicit consent, which you can withdraw at any time.
If you apply to work with us
If you apply to become a dance partner or teacher, we collect the information you send us, such as your name, contact details, dance experience and qualifications, and any CV or photos you provide. If you then work with us, we will also ask for your bank details in order to pay you. These are entered directly into our online banking service and are not used for any other purpose.
Information collected automatically
When you visit our Website, our website platform may also collect technical information, such as your IP address, browser type and the pages you visit, to keep the Website secure, diagnose problems and understand how it is used. For more information, please see our Cookie Policy.
If you give us information on behalf of someone else, for example when booking for a partner or friend, you confirm that they have agreed to you doing so and are aware of this policy.
How We Use Your Information and Why
Under data protection law, we must have a lawful reason (a "lawful basis") for using your personal information. We use your information:
• To provide the classes and Services you have booked, including confirming bookings, sending invoices and reminders, letting you know about changes or cancellations, and dealing with your questions. Our lawful basis is that this is necessary to perform our contract with you.
• To send you news about classes, events and offers by email. We only do this with your consent, which you give by ticking a box or signing up to our mailing list. You can withdraw your consent at any time by clicking "unsubscribe" in any email or by contacting us.
• To keep you safe in class, using any health information you choose to give us. Our lawful basis is your explicit consent.
• To consider applications from dance partners and teachers, and to manage and pay them if they work with us. Our lawful bases are taking steps to enter into a contract, and our legitimate interests in running our classes.
• To run and improve our business, for example to keep records, plan classes and keep the Website secure. Our lawful basis is our legitimate interests in running an effective business, balanced against your rights.
• To meet our legal obligations, for example keeping financial records for HMRC. Our lawful basis is legal obligation.
Photographs and Videos
We sometimes take photographs or short videos in class or at events, to use on our Website and social media. We will always tell you beforehand, and we will only use pictures in which you can be clearly identified with your permission. If you would rather not appear, just let us know, and you can ask us to remove a picture of you at any time.
Sharing Your Information
We will never sell or rent your personal information to anyone, and we will never pass it to other organisations for their own marketing.
We do use carefully chosen service providers to help us run our business, and they may handle your information on our behalf. For example:
• our website and email marketing platform (Squarespace), which hosts our Website, forms and mailing list;
• our booking and payment providers, which process bookings and card payments securely;
• our bank and our accounting software, which we use for invoices and payments;
• our email and file storage providers.
We share your name and the class you have booked with the dance partners and teachers who run that class, so that they know who to expect. They may only use it for that purpose.
These providers may only use your information in accordance with our instructions, and they are required by law or contract to keep it confidential and secure.
We may also disclose your personal information if we are required to do so in order to:
• comply with the law;
• respond to a lawful request from a government, regulatory or law enforcement body;
• comply with a valid legal process; or
• protect our rights or property, the Website, or other users of the Website, including for the purposes of fraud prevention.
International Transfers
Some of our service providers are based outside the UK, for example in the United States, or store information there. Where your personal information is transferred outside the UK, we make sure that it is protected to the standard required by UK law. This is done, for example, by using providers in countries the UK Government has approved as having adequate data protection laws, or by using legally approved contract terms.
How Long We Keep Your Information
We only keep your personal information for as long as we need it for the purposes for which it was collected, and to meet any legal, accounting or regulatory requirements. For example:
• we keep financial records, such as invoices and payments, for six years, as required by HMRC;
• we keep health information only while you are attending classes with us;
• we keep applications from dance partners and teachers who do not go on to work with us for up to 12 months, in case a suitable opportunity comes up, unless you ask us to delete them sooner;
• if you unsubscribe from our mailing list, we keep a record of your email address only so that we do not contact you again.
We review the information we hold regularly and securely delete anything we no longer need.
Keeping Your Information Secure
We take appropriate steps to protect your personal information from being lost, misused or accessed without permission. We use reputable providers with strong security, protect our accounts with strong passwords and two-factor authentication, and only access your information when we need to.
Your Rights
You have a number of rights over your personal information. You have the right to:
• ask for a copy of the personal information we hold about you;
• ask us to correct information that is wrong or incomplete;
• ask us to delete your information, where we have no legal reason to keep it;
• object to, or ask us to restrict, our use of your information in certain circumstances;
• ask us to transfer your information to another organisation, in certain circumstances;
• withdraw your consent at any time, where we rely on your consent, for example for marketing emails, health information or photographs.
To use any of these rights, please contact us using the details above. There is no charge, and we will respond within one month.
Making a Complaint
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your personal information, please contact us first, so that we can try to put things right. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK’s data protection regulator, at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113.
