Pearl Community Theatre ("we," "us," or "our") is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation based in Pearl, Mississippi. We are committed to protecting the privacy of our patrons, donors, volunteers, cast, crew, and website visitors. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you visit our website or interact with our services.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information that you voluntarily provide to us, including:

  • Contact Details: Name, email address, phone number, and mailing address when you join our mailing list, contact us, register for auditions, or sign up as a volunteer.

  • Ticketing and Donations: Billing details and transaction records when you purchase tickets, buy season passes, or make a tax-deductible donation. (Note: Payment card details are processed directly by our secure third-party payment processors and are never stored on our servers.)

  • Audition and Volunteer Information: Resumes, headshots, emergency contact details, and availability submitted through our registration forms.

  • Automated Data: Basic browsing data, including IP address, browser type, device information, and pages visited, collected through cookies and website analytics.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Process ticket purchases, season passes, and donor receipts.

  • Communicate performance dates, cast calls, volunteer schedules, and organizational updates.

  • Send newsletters and promotional announcements (you may opt out at any time).

  • Improve our website performance, box office operations, and community programming.

  • Comply with legal and tax-reporting requirements for 501(c)(3) organizations.

3. Sharing of Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We only share information with trusted third-party service providers that assist us in operating our theater, such as:

  • Third-party ticketing platforms and merchant processors.

  • Email marketing and communication platforms.

  • Website hosting and form-management services (such as Squarespace).

These providers are authorized to use your data solely to perform specific operational services on our behalf.

4. Cookies and Tracking

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies provided by our website host to ensure site functionality, maintain navigation flow, and understand aggregate visitor traffic. You can adjust your browser settings to decline cookies, though some interactive features may not display properly.

5. Children's Privacy

We offer family-friendly productions, auditions, and youth theater workshops. We do not knowingly collect personal information online directly from children under the age of 13 without verifiable parental or legal guardian consent. Audition and registration submissions for minors must be completed by a parent or legal guardian.

6. Data Security

We implement reasonable physical and electronic safeguards to protect the personal information submitted to us. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
