Privacy Policy

Duends is a hip-hop dance crew based in Sri Lanka, performing at weddings, functions and events. When this policy says “we” or “us”, it means Duends. We decide how the personal information you share with us is used, and we’re responsible for looking after it.

Questions about this policy go to bookings@duendsdance.com.

We only collect what you choose to tell us. That happens in two places on this site:

• Booking a performance — your name, phone or WhatsApp number, email address (optional), the type and date of your event, and anything you write about what you have in mind.
• Joining the crew — your name, phone number, email address (optional), the style you dance and for how long, a link to your reel or socials, and why you’d be a good fit.

If you contact us directly by email, phone or WhatsApp, we’ll also have whatever you send us that way.

This site doesn’t use cookies, analytics or advertising trackers, and it doesn’t ask you to create an account.

• To reply to your enquiry, put together a quote and plan your performance.
• To stay in touch about your booking before and after the event.
• To review crew applications and arrange auditions.

We won’t add you to a mailing list or send you marketing you didn’t ask for, and we never sell your information.

Only the people who need it to do what you asked:

• Members of our crew working on your event or reviewing your application.
• The services we use to run the site and talk to you, such as our web host and our email and messaging providers. They handle your information on our behalf and only as needed to provide their service.
• Authorities, if the law requires us to.

This site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages, and the videos on it stream from Cloudinary. Like any web service, they process basic technical details when your browser loads the site — such as your IP address, browser type and the pages requested — to deliver it securely and keep it running. They handle that under their own privacy policies.

The YouTube, Facebook, TikTok and Instagram links take you to those platforms. Once you’re there, their privacy policies apply, not this one.

We share photos and video of our performances on this site and on our social channels. If you appear in something we’ve posted and would like it taken down, email us at bookings@duendsdance.com and we’ll remove it.

We keep booking details for as long as we need them to plan and deliver your event, and for up to two years afterwards so we can help with repeat bookings or questions. Crew applications are kept for up to one year. After that we delete them, unless the law requires us to keep something for longer.

Under Sri Lanka’s Personal Data Protection Act, No. 9 of 2022, you can ask us to:

• tell you what information we hold about you and give you a copy;
• correct anything that’s wrong or out of date;
• delete your information;
• stop using it, or withdraw consent you’ve given.

Email bookings@duendsdance.com and we’ll respond as soon as we can. If you’re not happy with how we’ve handled your information, you can also contact the Data Protection Authority of Sri Lanka.

We limit who can see your information to the people who need it, and use reputable services to store and send it. No system is completely secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect what you share with us.

If we change how we handle personal information, we’ll update this page and the date at the top of it.
