Protecting the privacy of people who use this website is important to us. We strive to keep all information that you have provided to us confidential and we will hold this personal data (“Personal Data”) private and secure and we will only use this Personal Data for the purpose(s) you have agreed to. The purpose of this Privacy Statement is to explain what Personal Data we collect about you, how that Personal Data might be used and how we protect your Personal Data and privacy. You can view our basic data statement at nozstock.com/about/policies/our-data-statement.

WHAT DATA DO WE COLLECT?

If you are just visiting the Website, we do not collect any Personal Data about you. However, we may automatically collect information about your visits, such as browsing patterns, the name of your Internet service provider; the Internet Protocol (IP) address through which you access the Internet; the date and time you access the Website; the pages that you access while visiting the Website; and the Internet address of the website from which you linked directly to our Website. Information collected in this way does not reveal your contact details or any type of Personal Data. This information is only used in aggregate form to manage and develop the Website and is not linked to any individual’s Personal Data. If you register for our newsletter then we will hold and store your email address using the Mailchimp ESP (email service provider). At the point of sign up, you can clarify if you are happy to receive emails from Nozstock with marketing information. You can also state separately if you are happy for your data to be used as part of customised online advertising. Our newsletter is sent out by the Festival and we will not pass on your email addresses to third parties. If you purchase event tickets at www.nozstock.com then your personal details will be held on our behalf by our nominated ticket sales agents for the purpose of providing this service (“Service”) to you. If you opt into our newsletter they will export your email address and name to us so we can send you newsletters. The Personal Data collected by us will include your full name, e-mail address, telephone contact, date of birth in the event you are applying for a concessionary ticket, address, country of residence and postcode for you. From time to time you may also provide other Personal Data which we need to provide you with this Service you request, such as your credit card details. If you are successful in any application for a ticket for the Festival then the necessary Personal Data to allow your ticket to be allocated will be provided to our ticketing service providers who will use this information only for that purpose. You will receive updates about future events but we will never pass on your information to a third party without your express consent. If you register for tickets (the Service) then we will ask you to provide us with Personal Data that will include a company name, your personal name, date of birth for concessionary or youth tickets, address, email address and mobile telephone number. This Personal Data will be held by us to provide you with the Service and by requesting tickets your details will be automatically stored so an application form can be sent to you to provide the service in a subsequent year. If you do not want the service in subsequent years then you can email Data Protection Officer ella[at]nozstock.com and ask for your Personal Data to be deleted, and this will be done within a month. In some cases, we may need to suppress your data, which means we hold a contact record for you, so we can ensure our systems will not contact you or let you re-subscribe to a service again. Any data that is not essential to the suppression will be deleted. If you have entered a Nozstock Ltd competition then we will ask you for and keep the Personal Data you have provided including your name, date of birth to confirm eligibility to enter a competition, personal contact details and email address. We hold this information to provide these services (each the “Service” and together the “Services”) including providing details of the Services and the rules and results of any competitions. If you provide photographs or video for any public gallery on the website we will ask you for and will keep Personal Data including your name and your email address. This data will only be held to communicate with you about the use of your photographs. All information will be deleted as soon as possible once it is no longer needed to provide this Service to you. If you participate as an artist, practitioner, trader or crew member at one of our events, we will ask you for and will keep Personal Data including your name, telephone number, email address, postal address, and car registration number. Pre-festival site crew will also be asked for details of emergency contacts, health issues that are relevant to their working at the festival, date of birth for any younger volunteers or members of crew, parental/guardian data for any young people. CCTV is in operation on the festival premises. This is for the purposes of crime prevention and ascertaining events in a case of suspected criminal activity. CCTV footage will only be seen by directors of the festival, assigned security or senior personnel, including the Data Protection Officer, or law enforcement, and footage that is not part of an ongoing case will be cleared from our systems within a month after the festival. Photographers and video crew operate at our festivals to capture and document the event for future publicity. Warning signs appear around site, and anyone wishing to be omitted from our media should submit a photo to our Data Protection Officer at ella[AT}nozstock.com, with a request. This photo will be stored securely for reference purposes to ensure the person is not included in the media. Our media is on nozstock.com and associated social media profiles. It is also used in videos at events to promote events put on by Nozstock Ltd or Hidden Valley Events. We never sell our media to third parties. The only time any of our content may be used by a third party is when a performer at Nozstock requests footage of their performance for their own use.
