Nature of the Services; Brand Structure; Contracting Entity
Art Gharana is an online and hybrid arts-learning service offering live classes, recorded content, assessments, learning tools, and community engagement features across music, dance, vocal training, fine arts, and related disciplines. While the brand is unified globally, the contracting entity differs based on the user's jurisdiction: (a) users residing in India enter into a contractual relationship solely with Art Gharana India; (b) users residing outside India enter into a contractual relationship solely with Art Gharana LLC.
Binding Acceptance
By using the Services, you represent and warrant that you are legally competent to enter into a binding contract. If you are a parent or legal guardian registering a minor, you hereby provide full and irrevocable consent for the minor's participation, the collection and processing of the minor's data, the recording of all sessions, and the use, storage, and disclosure of such data as described herein.
Session Recording Consent and Mandatory Usage
All live classes — whether one-on-one or group — are fully recorded by Art Gharana through video, audio, chat transcripts, shared screens, and any learning interactions. These recordings serve pedagogical reinforcement, safety monitoring, quality control, dispute resolution, internal training, legal compliance, safeguarding of minors, fraud prevention, student support, performance reviews, and curriculum development.
Session recording is mandatory and non-optional for all users of all ages. If you or your ward do not consent to mandatory recording, you must immediately discontinue use of the Services. Recordings may be accessible to the registered student (or their parent) for practice purposes. Recordings will never be publicly shared without consent except where legally required.
