Our Legal Basis for Processing Your Information
Under UK data protection law, we must have a lawful basis for processing your personal information.
Depending on the circumstances, we may process your information on the following bases:
Contract – where the information is necessary to take steps at your request before entering into a booking agreement or to fulfil an existing booking agreement.
Legitimate interests – where we have a legitimate business interest in responding to enquiries, managing bookings, communicating with customers and operating The Tonics.
Legal obligation – where we are required to retain or process certain information for accounting, taxation or other legal purposes.
Consent – where appropriate, we may ask for your consent, for example in relation to certain photographs, videos or recordings.
Photographs, Videos and Recordings
Photographs and video recordings may occasionally be taken during performances.
Where appropriate, our booking process may ask whether you are happy for photographs or recordings relating to your event to be used by The Tonics for promotional purposes, including on our website and social media accounts.
Where we rely upon your consent, you may withdraw that consent by contacting us.
For public performances such as pubs, clubs, festivals and other public events, photographs or recordings may also be taken as part of promoting The Tonics.
We aim to use photographs and recordings reasonably and respectfully. If you appear prominently in an image or recording published by The Tonics and have concerns about its use, please contact us.
Sharing Your Information
We do not sell or rent your personal information.
We may share limited personal information with third parties where reasonably necessary to operate our website, administer our business, process payments or provide our services.
Information may also be shared with a venue or other organisation involved in your event where this is necessary to fulfil your booking.
We may disclose information where required to do so by law or where necessary to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights.
