Legal basis for processing data

We will process your information on the basis of performance of your contract with us (e.g. providing information relating to an event you have booked tickets for), your consent (e.g. sending marketing materials if you sign up to our mailing lists) or our legitimate interests.

Our legitimate interests may include sending you marketing and advertising that is likely to be of interest, in order to manage our relationship with you and in order to conduct our business. In such a case we will make sure that we assess any impact this may have upon you and won't use your information if we believe your interests should override ours. You have the right to object to this use.

Record retention periods

We will retain your information for as long as is necessary to provide you with the services you have requested from us or for as long as we reasonably require to retain the information for our lawful business purposes or for as long as the law otherwise permits.

Mailing lists

When you sign up for our mailing list, either at the time of booking or separately through our sign-up form, we collect personal information. We use that information for a few reasons: to share information such as news about upcoming shows; to contact you if we need to obtain or provide additional information; to check our records are right and to check every now and then that you're happy and satisfied. We also gather statistics around email opening and clicks using industry standard technologies to help us monitor and improve our marketing.
