Privacy Policy
Who operates CTSMD Connect
CTSMD Connect is a platform used by Children's Theatre of Southern Maryland to coordinate youth theatre participation, productions, volunteers, and family communication.
Information handled by the service
Depending on how you use the service, CTSMD Connect handles account identifiers and contact details, student and guardian relationships, production participation, auditions and casting, schedules, forms, messages, community posts, photos, videos, and other content submitted by members. Authorized workflows may also handle accommodation, allergy, emergency, pickup authorization, and incident or safeguarding information.
The mobile application may handle device notification permissions and push-notification tokens when you choose to register a device. The service also processes technical information needed for authentication, access controls, security, and reliable operation.
Why information is used
Information is used to administer membership and theatre activities; coordinate productions and volunteer work; communicate relevant updates; support family and student participation; manage authorized access; and respond to safety, safeguarding, administrative, and technical issues.
Students, guardians, and access
The service supports youth participants and their parents or guardians. Access to student information and communications depends on account relationships, production roles, and safeguarding permissions. Public pages and published materials may have different visibility rules from authenticated member areas.
Service providers and external links
CTSMD Connect relies on hosting and service infrastructure, and some functionality can open external websites or ticketing and media services. Following an external link may subject you to that provider's privacy practices.
Security and retention
CTSMD uses account authentication and role-based access controls to help restrict sensitive workflows. No internet service can guarantee absolute security. Information may need to be retained for operational, legal, financial, historical, or safeguarding reasons. Retention depends on the type of record and any applicable operational, legal, or safeguarding obligations.
Your choices and requests
You can ask about your personal information and request correction or deletion through the process described on the account and data deletion page. Requests involving a student may require confirmation of guardian authority. Some information may need to be retained to satisfy legitimate obligations.
