This would only ever be in the course of our business operations, we never sell, rent or trade email lists or personal information to other companies for marketing purposes.

What information do we collect and why?

When subscribing for specific services or entering applications electronically through our website we will ask for your personal details through the forms that you fill out. This information is only held for the legitimate purpose of fulfilling the service you have requested. or processing your application.

We ask for your name, age, current address, mobile phone number, DoB, gender. To ensure that we can process your application and secure your ticket we need to gather these key details. We may provide an SMS service to update you with important messages via text. We ask your gender so that we can provision onsite services proportionally.

Marketing

When you create an account to purchase a product from us (such as a ticket, or merchandise), we will collect your contact and billing information to send you information by email about its latest gigs, tours & festivals, access to presale tickets, competitions and exclusive offers.

When you purchase tickets to one of our events, or an event for which we are a co-promoter, we will receive your information from ticket agents used to sell tickets for our promoted and co-promoted events, or the venues we hire to put on the event. This includes your name, contact details and ticket purchase information, such as number of tickets bought and seat number(s).

When you attend one of our events, we may collect your information via (i) video surveillance cameras (we use signs if / where such cameras are used), (ii) from any free Wifi service we provide (if you register to use it) and, (iii) if available, via cashless payment wristbands which can be used to access events and to make purchases onsite at the event.

When you use our websites or apps, we collect information such as the browser and device you’re using, your IP address, your location, the site you came from, what you did and didn’t use our site/app for, or the site you visit when you leave us.

We will combine any personal data about you that we receive from you, from other companies in Our Group, and from third-parties in order to create marketing profiles.

Marketing profiles include personal data such as information about Services you have used or purchased previously, information about when you have visited one of our events or festivals in the past, demographic data and data from your social media profiles.

For example, we may analyse the personal data of people who have purchased tickets for a particular future event that we are promoting or organising and then compare them with other people in our database. If we identify people in our database who have similar personal data to the original purchasers, we may then target marketing about that event to the new people we have identified in our database, for example by sending direct marketing emails. We may conduct the profiling and send the direct marketing emails automatically.

We conduct these automated decision-making and profiling activities for our legitimate interests in providing the Services and ensuring they operate in a commercially suitable way which is tailored to your use and interests.

We will ensure that the automated decision-making and profiling does not produce legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.

We use that information to tell you our latest news, information on ticket and event updates, videos and photos. We also use it to update you on information that you have asked us to tell you about.
