At Unlimited Dance Company, we recognize the importance of capturing and sharing our dancers’ achievements and experiences through photography and videography. These images and videos are used to celebrate our students, promote our classes and performances, and communicate our work through various platforms including social media, our website, printed materials, and press coverage.

Use of Photos and Videos

We may use photos and videos in the following ways:

• On our official social media platforms (e.g. Facebook, Instagram, YouTube)
   

• On our website and promotional materials
   

• In printed publications such as flyers, posters, and newspaper articles
   

• As part of show recordings and highlight reels
   

Consent

• We require consent from parents/guardians of all students under the age of 18 to take and use their image or video footage.
   

• Consent is obtained at the time of registration and can be updated at any time.
   

• Individuals (or their parents/guardians) who do not wish for their image to be used can opt out, and we will take all reasonable steps to ensure they are not included in media coverage.
   

Safeguarding & Privacy

• We follow safeguarding best practices to ensure all photography and videography is appropriate and respectful.
   

• No images or videos will be taken in changing rooms or restrooms.
   

• Identifiable personal information (such as full names, addresses, or contact details) will never be shared alongside any images of children.
   

• All staff and photographers working with us are aware of and agree to abide by this policy.
   

Sharing and Storage
