Privacy

Privacy Policy

Bandwagon Music Pty Ltd, (“Bandwagon”, “we” or “us”), is a web and smartphone application platform (the “App”) that connects people 1-on-1 for real time, on-demand, live video Mentoring Sessions. For the purposes of these Terms and Conditions, a Bandwagon Mentor herein is defined as “an experienced adviser with exemplary professional skill in the Arts and Entertainment Industries”.

We respect the privacy of our Mentors and Mentees (as defined below) and are committed to protecting that privacy through our compliance with this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy describes the types of information we may collect from you or that you may provide when you access or use the App, the website located at https://bandwagonhub.com/privacy (“Website”), or any of our other products or services (the App, the Website, and any of our other products or services, collectively, the “Services”) along with our practices for collecting, using, maintaining, protecting and disclosing that information.

The Services are made available to both Mentors and Mentees. For purposes of this Privacy Policy, a “Mentee” is anyone who signs up for a Bandwagon Mentee profile in order to connect with a Mentor. A “Mentor” is anyone who creates a Mentor profile for the purposes of sharing his or her time and/or skills or interests for payment and/or charity. A person can be both a Mentor and a Mentee, but not in the same transaction. We are a platform designed and owned by Bandwagon Music Pty Ltd to facilitate paid interactions between Mentors and Mentees via video and audio chat sessions. Mentees and Mentors can share files and media inside the App for use only inside the App. In this Privacy Policy, Mentors and Mentees are referred to collectively as “you.”

This Privacy Policy applies to information we collect on, or through your use of the Services, in email, text-based SMS, other electronic alerts and messages between you and us, and through any mobile and desktop applications that you use in connection with the Services. This Privacy Policy does not apply to information that you provide to, or is collected by any third-party whether through or in connection with your use of the Services or otherwise, including through any third-party application or content (including advertising) that may link to or be accessible from or on the Services. You agree and acknowledge that we have no duty or responsibility to maintain and safeguard any information you may provide to, or is collected by, any third party whether through or in connection with your use of the Services or otherwise.

This Privacy Policy is incorporated by reference into our Terms of Service, found at https://support@bandwagonhub.com/terms (“Terms of Service”). Please read this Privacy Policy carefully to understand our policies and practices regarding your information and how we will treat it. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, do not access or use the Services. By accessing or using the Services, you agree to this Privacy Policy.

This Privacy Policy may change from time to time (see “Changes to Our Privacy Policy” below). Your continued use of the Services after we make changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes, so please check this Privacy Policy periodically for updates.
