1. Our use of personal data

In this Section we have set out:

(a) the general categories of personal data that we may process;
(b) in the case of personal data that we did not obtain directly from you, the source and specific categories of that data;
(c) the purposes for which we may process personal data; and
(d) the legal bases of the processing. When we refer to a “legal basis”, we mean a lawful basis set out in Article 6 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) under which we conduct the relevant processing.

Personal data we obtain from you
Usage data

We may process data about your use of the Site (usage data). This may include your geographical location, browser type and version, operating system, referral source, length of visit, page views and website navigation paths, as well as information about the timing, frequency and pattern of your use. This data is obtained through Google Analytics and will be aggregated and anonymised in such a way that it contains no information pertaining to any identifiable individual at all – as such it is not actually personal data but we address it in this Notice for completeness’s sake. We process usage data for the purpose of improving our Site.

Correspondence data

We may process information contained in or relating to any communication that you send to us, whether through the Site, by email, through social media, or otherwise. All of this information together is correspondence data. This may include the communication content and metadata associated with the communication, as well as any contact details you provide to us such as your name, email address, phone number, job title, address or social media username. We process correspondence data for the purposes of communicating with you and record-keeping.

Enquiry data

We may process information contained in any enquiry you submit to us indicating your interest in our events or business (enquiry data), such as the contents of your enquiry and any contact details you provide to us such as your name, email address, phone number, job title or address. We process enquiry data for the purposes of addressing your enquiry and providing you with occasional news about our events and operations.

Personal data we obtain from others

Your personal data may be provided to us by someone other than you: for example, by a venue that you have corresponded with, or where you are a member of a mailing list with the agreement that your information may be shared with visiting performance companies. This data will be correspondence data or enquiry data as described above and will be processed by us for the purposes described above.

Our legal basis of processing

We will process personal data only on lawful bases. In particular, we will process personal data on the following lawful bases identified in Article 6 GDPR:
(a) for the performance of a contract with you, or to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract with you (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR). This may be our basis for processing correspondence data and enquiry data;
(b) for our legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). This may be our basis for processing:
i) correspondence data (as we have an interest in properly administering our business and communications);
ii) enquiry data (as we have an interest in developing our business with interested parties);
iii) any of the personal data identified in the other provisions of this Notice in connection with backups of any element of our IT systems or databases containing that personal data (as we have an interest in ensuring the resilience of our IT systems and the integrity and recoverability of our data).

In addition to the specific purposes for which we may process your personal data set out in this section, we may also process any of your personal data where such processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject (Article 6(c) GDPR), or in order to protect your vital interests or the vital interests of another individual (Article 6(d) GDPR).

2. Providing your personal data to others

We may disclose your personal data to our insurers and/or professional advisers as necessary for the purposes of obtaining and maintaining insurance coverage, managing risks, obtaining professional advice and managing legal disputes.

We may disclose personal data to our suppliers or subcontractors in connection with the uses described in Section 2 above. For example, we may disclose any personal data in our possession to suppliers which host the servers on which our data is stored. In our case, these supplier is one.com (who host all our emails and web data)

We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes. We only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions and applicable law.

If any part of our business or operations is sold or transferred to, or integrated with, another organisation, your personal data may be disclosed to that organisation.

3. Data security

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those officers, employees and freelancers who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

4. Retaining and deleting personal data

Personal data that we process for any purpose or purposes shall not be kept for longer than is necessary for that purpose or those purposes.

We will retain and delete your personal data as follows:
(a) usage data (which is anonymised, and not personal data) may be retained by us indefinitely;
(b) enquiry and correspondence data will be retained for the period of the enquiry, or chain of correspondence. We will delete all correspondence and enquiry data on request.

5. Amendments

We may update this Notice from time to time by publishing a new version on the Site. You should check occasionally to ensure you are happy with any changes to this Notice, although we will notify you of material changes to this Notice using the contact details you have given us.

6. Your rights

We have summarized below the rights that you have under data protection law. Some of the rights are complex, and not all of the details have been included in our summaries. You can read guidance from the Information Commissioner’s Office at www.ico.org.uk for a fuller explanation of your rights.

Your principal rights under data protection law are:
(a) the right to access;
(b) the right to rectification;
(c) the right to erasure;
(d) the right to restrict processing;
(e) the right to object to processing;
(f) the right to data portability; and
(g) the right to complain to a supervisory authority.

You have the right to confirmation of whether we process your personal data and, where we do, to access to the personal data, together with certain additional information. That additional information includes details of the purposes of the processing, the categories of personal data concerned and the recipients of the personal data. Providing the rights and freedoms of others are not affected, we will supply to you a copy of your personal data. The first copy will be provided free of charge, but additional copies may be subject to a reasonable fee.

You have the right to have any inaccurate personal data about you rectified and, taking into account the purposes of the processing, to have any incomplete personal data about you completed.

You have the right to object to our processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes. If you do, we will stop processing your personal data for this purpose.

If you consider that our processing of your personal information infringes data protection laws, you have a legal right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority responsible for data protection. You may do so in the EU member state of your habitual residence, your place of work or the place of the alleged infringement.

You may exercise any of your rights in relation to your personal data by written notice to us.
