How do you signal to someone you're interested in that you're available when they know you are partnered??

Hey all! I don't know about you guys, but I've formed pretty much all of my "secondary" relationships online. I disclose in any dating profiles that I'm poly and partnered, and I make sure that anyone who I really click with is fully aware of my situation. But in the last couple weeks I've found myself in two different situations where I've met people irl that I wanted to signal my interest in, but wasn't sure how to do so since they knew I was married and we weren't in a private setting.

Right now I've got quite the crush on a girl that I see weekly, but when we meet it's always in a public, semi-professional setting. We get along really well and it feels a bit flirty at times, but I'm pretty certain she's aware that I have a partner. I have avoided directly discussing my husband just out of fear that she'll take that as a signal to back off, but I really wish I could just come up with a way to casually let her know that I'm ~polybi~ while we're together.

Has anyone else here dealt with situations like this? How have you communicated to people that you're an active member of the dating pool while already being in a relationship?
