Privacy Policy
​
At Pole Oasis (PO) , we believe that the privacy of all personal information is very important. All information collected will be used solely by PO to conduct the business. Your information will not be disclosed to any third parties, other than for the purpose of processing payments. PO will only ask for and use relevant personal information for the purposes of providing you a safe, efficient and enjoyable PO experience.
PO will collect personal data such as:
-
Your personal information e.g. name, date of birth, NRIC, passport or other identification details, education and professional qualifications, hobbies and interests;
-
Your contact information e.g. physical address, email address; phone numbers; emergency contact details;
-
Your payment methods and details e.g. credit card information, including the cardholder’s name, card number, billing address and issue and expiry date;
-
Your health information e.g. medical records or fitness profile;
-
Your dance experience and expertise e.g. number of years, expertise levels, amount of training previously received.
​
​
Reasons for collection
It is necessary for you to provide your personal data, except where the request for data is marked “optional” in the forms. This is required in order for PO to provide its services to you in a way that is safe and enjoyable, and for PO’s appraisal of its service standards and internal quality controls. For example, PO will generally try to group students of similar ability and experience in the same class so that all students can equally enjoy and benefit.
​
The failure to supply such information may result in
(i) PO being unable to provide you with the services requested;
(ii) PO being unable to provide you with the levels of safety or instruction you deserve, or
(iii) contacting you for product or customer satisfaction surveys or to provide you details of classes or other services that may be of interest to you.
​
Safety, security and legal compliance.
PO may also use and disclose your personal data with and to third parties for reasons of safety, security or legal compliance. For example, should it be necessary for PO to assist you in obtaining medical attention, PO may disclose your health information to medical service providers.
In addition, PO may also use and disclose your personal information to persons who have been validly identified as being you or your authorised representative(s) for the relevant purposes.
PO shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that its employees, officers, agents, instructors and other third parties who may have access to your personal information observe and adhere to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
​

Your personal information held by PO will be kept confidential except where such disclosure is necessary to satisfy the purpose, or a reasonably related purpose, for which the data was collected to the following parties:
-
Any subsidiaries, holding companies, associated companies, or affiliates of, or companies controlled by, or under common control with PO;
-
Any person or company who is acting for or on behalf of, or jointly with PO in respect of the purpose or a directly related purpose for which the personal information was provided, e.g. instructors or course co-ordinators ;

Any other person or company who is under a duty of confidentiality to PO and has undertaken to keep such information confidential, provided such person or company has a legitimate right to such information; and
