Last updated: June 9, 2026

Street Smart Improv Comedy LLC ("we," "our," or "us") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal data you share with us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website (www.streetsmartimprov.com), sign up for our newsletter, register for our classes, workshops, practices, or jams, or otherwise interact with our business.

​

Throughout this document, the terms "SSIC," "Street Smart Improv," and "Street Smart Improv Comedy" refer to our officially registered entity, Street Smart Improv Comedy LLC. Please read this policy carefully.

1. Information We Collect.

We collect information that you voluntarily provide to us when you interact with our Website or register for our programs. This includes:

​

  • Personal Identifiers: Name, email address, phone number, and billing address.

  • Transaction Information: Details about payments you make through our site and programs you purchase or register for. Please note: We do not directly store or process credit card numbers on our servers; all transactions are handled securely by our third-party payment processors.

  • Profile Data: Your username, password, event RSVP history, and preferences saved in your member account.

  • User-Generated Content: Any feedback, testimonials, or communications you send to us directly or post on our forums/community boards.

2. Automated Data Collection (Cookies & Tracking).

When you navigate our Website, our hosting platform (Wix.com) automatically collects certain technical data about your equipment, browsing actions, and patterns. This includes:

​

  • IP addresses, browser types, operating systems, and time zones.

  • Information about how you use our Website, pages viewed, and links clicked.

  • Cookies: We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to keep track of your member session, remember your preferences, and understand how visitors interact with our site. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies, but some portions of our site may not function properly as a result.

  • Aggregated Analytics: We utilize third-party analytics and optimization tools to evaluate search engine traffic, keyword performance, and general user behavior on our Website. This data is entirely aggregated and anonymized, meaning it does not personally identify you, and is used solely to improve our local event visibility and marketing strategies.

3. How We Use Your Information.

We use the data we collect to deliver an exceptional, welcoming experience. Specifically, we use your data to:

​

  • Process your registrations, handle payments, and manage your member account.

  • Communicate vital event updates, such as schedule changes, location details, or custom Inclement Weather Policy alerts.

  • Manage limited-capacity rosters and waitlists for our free community jams and practices.

  • Send you promotional emails, newsletters, and announcements about upcoming "Improv For Everyone" classes (you may opt out of marketing emails at any time via the "unsubscribe" link).

  • Improve our Website functionality, customer service, and curriculum offerings.

  • Comply with applicable legal obligations or enforce our Terms of Service.

4. Sharing Your Information.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We only share your data with trusted service providers who help us run our business, under strict confidentiality agreements. These include:

​

  • Wix.com: Our web hosting, database management, and automation platform.

  • Payment Processors: Secure third-party gateways (such as Wix Payments, Stripe, or Square) to safely handle your transaction data.

  • Venue Partners: When required for security or building logistics, we may share basic attendee numbers or rosters with our host venues.

  • Legal Disclosures: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, court order, or government mandate.

5. Data Storage and Security.

Our Website is hosted on the Wix.com platform. Your data may be stored through Wix.com’s data storage, databases, and general applications on secure servers behind a firewall. While we and our partners implement robust administrative and technical security measures, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute data security.

6. Media & Photography Privacy.

As outlined in our Terms of Service, SSIC may occasionally take photographs or video recordings during workshops or community events for promotional use. If you explicitly exercise your right to opt out of our Media Release with us prior to the start of a class, SSIC will take reasonable internal measures to ensure your likeness is not captured, stored, or published in our digital media repositories.

7. Artificial Intelligence & Data Scraping.

SSIC explicitly prohibits the use of any automated systems, web scrapers, or artificial intelligence bots to harvest, scrape, or extract personal information, user testimonials, or proprietary curriculum text from this Website for the purpose of training machine learning models or commercial data aggregation without our express written consent.

8. Your Data Rights (Virginia Residents & General).

As a Virginia-registered entity, we respect your rights regarding your personal information under applicable local regulations. Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

​

  • Request access to the personal data we hold about you.

  • Request that we correct or update any inaccurate personal information.

  • Request that we permanently delete your personal data from our active marketing databases. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the email address provided below.
