Please note that we have no control over how your data is collected, stored, or used by other websites and we advise you to check the privacy policies of any such websites before providing any data to them.

4. What is Personal Data?

Personal data is defined by the General Data Protection Regulation (EU Regulation 2016/679) (the “GDPR”) as ‘any information relating to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified in particular by reference to an identifier’.

Personal data is, in simpler terms, any information about you that enables you to be identified. Personal data covers obvious information such as your name and contact details, but it also covers less obvious information such as identification numbers, electronic location data, and other online identifiers.

5. What Are My Rights?

Under the GDPR, you have the following rights, which we will always work to uphold:

  1. The right to be informed about our collection and use of your personal data. This Privacy Policy should tell you everything you need to know, but you can always contact us to find out more or to ask any questions using the details in Part 15.
  2. The right to access the personal data we hold about you. Part 13 will tell you how to do this.
  3. The right to have your personal data rectified if any of your personal data held by us is inaccurate or incomplete. Please contact us using the details in Part 15 to find out more.
  4. The right to be forgotten, i.e. the right to ask us to delete or otherwise dispose of any of your personal data that we have. Please contact us using the details in Part 15 to find out more.
  5. The right to restrict (i.e. prevent) the processing of your personal data.
  6. The right to object to us using your personal data for a particular purpose or purposes.
  7. The right to data portability. This means that, if you have provided personal data to us directly, we are using it with your consent or for the performance of a contract, you can ask us for a copy of that personal data to re-use with another service or business in many cases.
  8. Rights relating to automated decision-making and profiling. We do not use your personal data in this way.

For more information about our use of your personal data or exercising your rights as outlined above, please contact us using the details provided in Part 15.

Further information about your rights can also be obtained from the Information Commissioner’s Office or your local Citizens Advice Bureau.

If you have any cause for complaint about our use of your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office.

6. What Data Do We Collect?

  • contact information such as postal and email addresses and telephone numbers (required);

  • a list of URLS starting with a referring site, your activity on this Website, and the site you exit to (automatically
  • collected); and
  • Cookie information (see clause 10 below).

7. How Do You Use My Personal Data?

Under the GDPR, we must always have a lawful basis for using personal data. This may be because the data is necessary for our performance of a contract with you, because you have consented to our use of your personal data, or because it is in our legitimate business interests to use it. Your personal data will be used for the following purposes:

  • Providing and managing your Account
  • Providing and managing your access to Our Site;
  • Personalising and tailoring your experience on Our Site;
  • Supplying our services to you. Your personal details are required in order for us to enter into a contract with you.
  • Communicating with you. This will include responding to emails or calls from you.
  • Supplying you with information by email to complete your account or improve your experience of The Site. Please note that it is a requirement of the site to continue receiving transactional emails regarding your account.

With your explicit permission, we may also use your personal data for marketing purposes, which may include contacting you by email with information, news, and offers on our services. You will not be sent any unlawful marketing or spam. We will always work to fully protect your rights and comply with our obligations under the GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003, and you will always have the opportunity to opt-out.

7.1 Third Parties

We use third-party software to develop and maintain TheatreDigsBooker. This includes hosting providers, development tools and data storage facilities.

We strive to choose the best third-party providers and check that their privacy and security policies match our own, and value your data in the same way.

We also use third-party Analytics software to help us track usage of TheatreDigsBooker.

Please note that we do not control the activities of such third parties, nor the data that they collect and use themselves, and we advise you to check the privacy policies of any such third parties.

8. How Long Will You Keep My Personal Data?

We will keep your Personal Data for a period of 12 months unless we are required to keep it for longer periods because of law or investigations. For example, your Personal Information could be stored by TheatreDigsBooker for eight years after you close your account due to Inland Revenue requirements. When your Personal Data is no longer necessary for our business needs, we will take reasonable steps to securely destroy such information or permanently de-identify it.

9. How and Where Do You Store or Transfer My Personal Data?

We will store and transfer your personal data in the UK. This means that it will be fully protected under the GDPR.

Where we transfer your data to third party suppliers based in the US, we will ensure that they are part of the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework. This requires that third party to provide data protection to standards similar to those in Europe. More information is available from the European Commission.

The security of your personal data is essential to us, and to protect your data, we take a number of important measures, including the following:

  • We will keep your personal data confidential and limit access to your personal data to those who specifically need it to conduct their business activities, except as otherwise permitted by applicable law.
  • We use reasonable administrative and technical security measures to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, destruction, use, modification or disclosure.

10. Do You Share My Personal Data?

There are times when we need to share your data with third-parties in order to perform our services. We use a range of third-party service providers including database service providers, backup and disaster recovery service providers, email service providers and others.

If any of your personal data is required by a third party, as described above, or is transferred outside of the EU, we will take steps to ensure that your personal data is handled safely, securely, and in accordance with your rights, our obligations, and the third party’s obligations under the law, as described above in Part 9.

In some limited circumstances, we may be legally required to share certain personal data, which might include yours, if we are involved in legal proceedings or complying with legal obligations, a court order, or the instructions of a government authority.

11. How Can I Control My Personal Data?

11.1 In addition to your rights under the GDPR, set out in Part 5, when you submit personal data via Our Site, you may be given options to restrict our use of your personal data. In particular, we aim to give you strong controls on our use of your data for direct marketing purposes (including the ability to opt-out of receiving marketing emails from us which you may do by unsubscribing using the links provided in our marketing emails or at the point of providing your details).

11.2 You may also wish to sign up to one or more of the preference services operating in the UK: The Telephone Preference Service (“the TPS”), the Corporate Telephone Preference Service (“the CTPS”), and the Mailing Preference Service (“the MPS”). These may help to prevent you receiving unsolicited marketing. Please note, however, that these services will not prevent you from receiving marketing communications that you have consented to receiving.

12. Can I Withhold Information?

You may access certain areas of Our Site without providing any personal data at all. However, to use all features and functions available on Our Site, you will be required to create an account and allow for the collection of certain data.

You may restrict our use of Cookies. For more information, please see Part 14.

13. How Can I Access My Personal Data?

If you want to know what personal data we have about you, you can ask us for details of that personal data and for a copy of it (where any such personal data is held). This is known as a “Subject Access Request”.

All subject access requests should be made in writing and sent to the email or postal addresses shown in Part 15. There is not normally any charge for a subject access request. If your request is ‘manifestly unfounded or excessive’ (for example, if you make repetitive requests) a fee may be charged to cover our administrative costs in responding. We will respond to your subject access request within 30 days.

14. Data Erasure

Under the GDPR law, you can request that your personal information be deleted. Please note that if you request the erasure of your personal information:

  • We may retain your personal information as necessary for our legitimate business interests, such as prevention of money laundering, fraud detection and prevention, and enhancing safety. For example, if we suspend a Theatre Digs Booker Account for fraud or safety reasons, we may retain information from that Account to prevent that User from opening a new Theatre Digs Booker Account in the future.
  • To comply with our legal obligations, we may retain and use your personal information to the extent necessary. For example, Theatre Digs Booker may keep information for tax, legal reporting and auditing obligations.
  • Information you have shared with others (e.g. reviews, private messages) will continue to be visible on Theatre Digs Booker, even after your Account is closed. However, attribution of such information to you will be removed. Some copies of your information (e.g. log records) will remain in our database, but are disassociated from personal identifiers.
  • We take measures to protect data from accidental or malicious loss and destruction. For that reason, residual copies of your personal information may not be removed from our backup systems for a limited period of time.

16. Changes of Business Ownership and Control

Theatredigsbooker.com may, from time to time, expand or reduce its business and this may involve the sale of certain divisions or the transfer of control of certain divisions to other parties.
