PRIVACY POLICY

What is a privacy policy?
No doubt you've probably never read one of these, same really, but seeing as I'm having to write one and you've chosen to read it, I might as well make it easy to understand. A Privacy policy basically lets you know what information we collect about you, how we store it and what we do with it.

What information we collect
This depends on if you're a member or not, as obviously you've either given us your name or you haven't.

All site users
We use Google Analytics to track how many people visit our site, where you come from (e.g from a google search, from a link on insta) and what you do when you're here. This is all anonymous but is tracked by cookies set on your device.
We use Meta Pixels to track if you've come from an advert we've ran on Facebook or Insta, this also tracks what pages you view, and if you complete an action such as buying tickets. Again this is anonymous to us and we can use this anonymised data to improve our adverts. These pixels are also on all of our Skiddle & Fatsoma event pages.

Members
We collect all the information you supply to us on sign up, such as your name, e-mail, phone number, we also then collect data on how many times you visit us and when you visit us when you check-in at the box office each visit

What we do with your information
If you opt into marketing - We'll use your data to send you occasional e-mails/WhatsApps with offers and news about the club. We won't use your phone number for marketing unless you opt into WhatsApp. We use your birthday to send you birthday offers. We use your student status to send you relevant offers, no point us sending you offers in August if you're not here is there!

We use Google Analytics data to make sure the site is easy to use and we're showing up in the right places on Google, for example if we see it's taking people 5 clicks to find information on an event, we'll make changes to make information easier to find.

We use Meta (Facebook / Insta) pixel data to improve our marketing, we may also create targeted ads, for example, if you added tickets to your basket but didn't buy them, you may then start seeing adverts for the event you were looking at.

We use Snap pixel data to imrpove our marketing, we may also create targeted ads, for example, if you added tickets to your basket but didn't buy them, you may then start seeing adverts for the event you were looking at

We use TikTok pixel data to imrpove our marketing, we may also create targeted ads, for example, if you added tickets to your basket but didn't buy them, you may then start seeing adverts for the event you were looking at
