Effective April 7, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how Cadence (“we,” “us,” or “our”), operated by Robert Mastronicola as a sole proprietor, collects, uses, and shares information about you when you use our scheduling platform at cadence.dance (“the Service”). By using the Service, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
Account information: When you sign in with Google OAuth, we receive your name and email address from Google. We store these to identify your account and communicate with you about the Service.
Studio and schedule data: We store the content you create within the Service, including studio names, class schedules, instructor information, and any other data you input while using Cadence.
Payment information: When you subscribe to a paid plan, payment is processed by Stripe. We do not collect or store your credit card numbers or banking details. Stripe provides us with limited transaction metadata (e.g., subscription status, last four digits of card on file, billing dates) necessary to manage your subscription.
Usage data: We may collect information about how you interact with the Service, including pages visited, features used, timestamps, and browser/device information. This data is used to improve the Service and diagnose technical issues.
We use the information we collect to:
We do not sell your personal data to third parties. We do not use your data for targeted advertising.
Your data is stored on cloud infrastructure provided by Vercel and associated database providers. Data is hosted in the United States. We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data against unauthorized access, loss, or disclosure, though no system can guarantee absolute security.
We use the following third-party services to operate Cadence. Each has its own privacy policy that governs how they handle data:
Cadence uses session cookies to keep you logged in between visits. These cookies are managed by NextAuth.js, our authentication library, and are stored in your browser. They contain a session token that identifies your authenticated session — they do not contain your password or payment information.
We do not use advertising cookies or third-party tracking cookies. You can clear cookies through your browser settings at any time, which will log you out of the Service.
You have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of the personal data we hold about you. To exercise these rights, email us at hello@cadence.dance. We will respond to verifiable requests within a reasonable timeframe.
You may also delete your account at any time. Upon account deletion, we will remove your personal data from active systems subject to our data retention policy described below.
We retain your account and studio data for as long as your account is active. If you close your account or request deletion, we will delete or anonymize your personal data within 90 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal or financial compliance purposes (e.g., billing records may be retained for up to 7 years as required by tax law).
Aggregate or anonymized usage data that cannot identify you may be retained indefinitely for analytical purposes.
The Service is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child under 13, please contact us at hello@cadence.dance and we will promptly delete it.
While dance studios using Cadence may serve children as students, the account holders and users of the Service itself (studio owners, instructors, administrators) are expected to be adults. Schedule data entered into the Service about students (e.g., class names and times) does not include children's personal information.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the effective date at the top of this page. For material changes, we may also notify you by email or through a notice within the Service. Your continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
If you have questions, concerns, or requests related to this Privacy Policy or your personal data, please reach out:
