Privacy Policy

This policy covers how Everything Sondheim and Signature Theatre treat the personal information that it collects from its patrons in any manner.

This policy may also cover information collected and used by Everything Sondheim and Signature Theatre via third party social media platforms, such as Facebook or YouTube, either generally or through Signature Theatre’s branded pages.

  1. Information Collection and Use

Personal Information

Personal information is information about you that is personally identifiable such as your name, address, email address, or phone number, or other information that is not otherwise publicly available, including information related to your usage of Everything Sondheim and Signature Theatre’s products and services.

You may visit and browse Everything Sondheim as often as you like without logging in and no personal information about your visit will be collected.

While you are logged into your Everything Sondheim account you are not anonymous to us online. Signature Theatre collects personal information when you register an account, utilize our network, request information about our products and services, participate in a promotion or an online survey, contact Everything Sondheim or Signature Theatre with a question or suggestion, and apply for employment with Everything Sondheim and Signature Theatre.

How Information is Collected

We may ask you to provide specific information. Depending on the nature of your interaction with Everything Sondheim and Signature Theatre, we may ask you for information such as your name, phone number, physical address, and email address.

We may use Cookies, tracking tags and other technology. Everything Sondheim and Signature Theatre use cookies and other tracking mechanisms across our websites and social media platforms. These technologies work by sending a small amount of data from our websites which is stored on your computer’s hard drive (“cookies”). Our site can then read this cookie, which helps us keep track of how you use our websites and remember your preferences. Many web browsers accept cookies by default but contain an option for you to turn off cookie acceptance if you prefer. If you turn off acceptance, there may be some features of our websites that will not be available to you and some webpages may not display properly.

In addition, Everything Sondheim and Signature Theatre incorporate tracking or measurement tools into our websites and other communications which enable us to track your browsing activity on Everything Sondheim website as well as across social media platforms or other non-Signature Theatre websites and applications (known as “tracking tags”, “web beacons,” “action tags” or “single-pixel gifs”). If you utilize services which are linked to these tracking tags, these third-party services may also provide non-personal information to Signature Theatre about your activity on non-Signature Theatre websites and social media platforms, which we may utilize to increase the effectiveness of our promotional efforts and to personalize our services and offerings for you.

Cookies, tracking tags, and embedded third-party features provide overall usage patterns for our websites that we use for analysis and to provide personalized services and advertising content. Your browsing may be tracked by these third-party services for their own use and for their clients. Such tracking could give information about you as an individual to third-parties based on your browsing activity, but this information will not include personal information unless you specifically provide it.

The ability of tracking tags to gather and use your information through any third-party services is governed by that service’s privacy policy, which may differ from Signature Theatre’s policies. Everything Sondheim and Signature Theatre are not responsible for the privacy practices or the use of the data collected by these third-party services.

How Information is Used

First and foremost, Everything Sondheim and Signature Theatre use any information you provide to us to provide you with products and services such as newsletter subscriptions and other specifically requested information and activities. In addition, we may perform (or have third parties perform) analyses of visitors’ behavior, and may share data with sponsors, advertisers, and collaborators.

Your personal information may be used by us (or third parties engaged by us) to: (1) customize the advertising and the content that you see, (2) fulfill your requests for products and services, (3) contact you, (4) conduct research, (5) respond to subpoenas, court orders or legal process, and (6) establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims.

We will on occasion share information gathered from our patrons with selected third party vendors who assist Signature Theatre with promoting and marketing our programs and services. This might include customer research, management of customer databases, promotional mailings or other targeted promotions. This information may include your name, address, e-mail address, and site usage data.

 
In addition Signature Theatre may provide your name and address or phone number to third parties whose products we believe may be of interest to you (although we do not share any other information about you, the selection criteria may result in the third party being able to identify your relationship with Signature Theatre in a broad manner, i.e., that you have visited Everything Sondheim). You can request at any time that we do not share your name and address or phone numbers with such third parties. Signature Theatre does not monitor or control the privacy policies of such third parties.
