Privacy Policy

World Theatre (“World Theatre,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) provides an events platform through our website and mobile application.

Our services allow users to discover events, create and manage public or private events, reserve and manage tickets and invitations, maintain an account and profile, and use related event-management features.

This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use and protect it, when it may be shared, and the choices and rights available to you when using World Theatre.

This Privacy Policy applies to the World Theatre mobile application, the website at world-theatre.com, and other World Theatre services that link to this policy.

By using World Theatre, you acknowledge that your information will be handled as described in this Privacy Policy.

Payment-card details may be processed directly by the payment provider rather than stored by World Theatre.

We do not use personal information for purposes materially different from those described in this Privacy Policy without providing appropriate notice where required.

The World Theatre website may use cookies, local storage, or similar technologies that are necessary for the website and related services to function.

These technologies may be used for purposes such as:

• Maintaining sessions
• Authentication
• Security
• Remembering user preferences
• Providing essential website functionality

If World Theatre introduces additional analytics, advertising, or marketing technologies that require additional consent or disclosure, this Privacy Policy and any applicable cookie controls will be updated accordingly.

You may be able to control cookies through your browser settings, although disabling certain technologies may affect the functionality of the service.

World Theatre may use third-party payment providers to process payments for tickets, memberships, or other paid services.

Payment providers may collect and process information necessary to complete a transaction, including payment-card or financial information, in accordance with their own privacy policies and security practices.

World Theatre may receive transaction-related information such as:

• Payment status
• Amount

We do not require access to your full payment-card number when payment information is handled directly by the payment provider.

We do not sell personal information to advertisers.

We may share information in the following circumstances.

• Hosting and cloud infrastructure
• Authentication
• Database services
• Payment processing
• Maps and venue services
• Email or communications services
• Security and technical infrastructure

These providers may process information only as necessary to provide their services to us and subject to their own legal and contractual obligations.

Legal and safety requirements

We may disclose information when reasonably necessary to:

• Investigate fraud, abuse, or security incidents
• Enforce our agreements and policies

Business changes

If World Theatre is involved in a merger, acquisition, restructuring, financing, or transfer of business assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

Retention periods may vary depending on:

• The type of information
• Whether your account remains active
• Event and ticket history
• Transaction and accounting requirements
• Legal and regulatory obligations
• Fraud-prevention and security needs
• Dispute-resolution requirements

Some records may need to be retained after an account is closed or information is deleted where required by law, financial reporting obligations, tax requirements, fraud prevention, or legitimate security purposes.

When information is no longer reasonably required, we may delete, anonymize, or securely dispose of it.

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights relating to your personal information.

These may include the right to:

• Access personal information we hold about you
• Correct inaccurate information
• Update your account information
• Request deletion of your personal information
• Object to or restrict certain processing
• Request information about how your data is used
• Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
• Request a copy of certain information where applicable

Some information can be managed directly through your World Theatre account or profile.

For requests that cannot be completed directly through the service, you may contact us at:

support@world-theatre.com

We may need to verify your identity before completing certain privacy requests.

Some requests may be limited where we are required or permitted by law to retain information.

World Theatre uses reasonable technical, administrative, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

These measures may include:

• Authentication controls
• Access restrictions
• Secure infrastructure
• Encrypted communications where appropriate
• Security monitoring
• Database and application safeguards

However, no method of transmitting or storing information electronically is completely secure.

We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security, but we work to maintain protections appropriate to the nature of the information we process.

Users are responsible for protecting their account credentials and should notify us if they believe their account has been accessed without authorization.

World Theatre may use service providers or infrastructure located outside your country.

As a result, personal information may be processed or stored in countries other than the country in which you live.

Where required by applicable law, we take appropriate measures designed to protect personal information when it is transferred internationally.

Those countries may have different privacy and data-protection laws from your own jurisdiction.

By using World Theatre, you acknowledge that information may be processed in locations where World Theatre or its service providers operate, subject to applicable legal safeguards.

World Theatre is an events platform and may include events intended for families or children. However, the availability of children's events does not necessarily mean that World Theatre services are directed specifically to children.

We do not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children in violation of applicable law.

Where a child is permitted to use World Theatre, parental or guardian involvement may be required depending on the child's age, location, and applicable legal requirements.

Parents or guardians who believe that a child has provided personal information to World Theatre without appropriate authorization may contact us at:

support@world-theatre.com

We will review the request and take appropriate action where required.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect:

• Changes to World Theatre features
• New services
• Changes to our service providers
• Legal or regulatory requirements
• Changes to our privacy or security practices

When we make changes, we will update the Last updated date at the top of this page.

Where required by law or where changes are material, we may provide additional notice through the website, mobile application, email, or another appropriate method.

We encourage users to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
