However, we utilise trusted suppliers in marketing solutions to administer services that you have agreed to receive, for example:

  • mailing houses to despatch our promotions, magazine, letters and event advertising
  • website hosting companies which we use to administer our website content
  • a database company who support us in keeping all our records in order

as and when required we will share accident and incident information with the Health and Safety Executive, our insurers and our solicitors.

We also use trusted suppliers to help us with marketing:

  • mailing houses to send out marketing by post
  • telemarketing agencies to contact you by phone or SMS
  • an organisation which helps us keep your information accurate and up to date
  • Some of our suppliers may operate outside the European Economic Area (EEA). This requires us to ensure they provide an adequate level of protection in accordance with UK data protection law, for example the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework. By submitting your personal information to us you agree to this transfer, storing or processing at locations outside the EEA.
  • Under some circumstances we may be required to disclose or share your information without your consent, for example if we are required by the police, the courts or for other legal reasons.

Track and Trace:

  • We will collect your personal data to support the Government’s Track and Trace process in response to COVID-19 and also that the data will only be held for 28 days (21 days +7 days backup)

How we keep your personal information up to date

BH Live has a legal obligation under data protection legislation to keep the personal information it collects accurate and up to date. Among other things, it helps us ensure that we do not contact you with inappropriate information and marketing messages.

We keep your information accurate by:

  • giving you the opportunity at any time to contact us to correct or change your information.
  • screening your name and postal address information against Royal Mail’s National Change of Address File: where you have given your permission to Royal Mail, we can either update our records with your new address or note you have moved so we don’t send anything to your old address.
  • using information publicly available to us.
  • If you contact our Customer Contact Centre we may ask you to confirm certain details.
  • when we receive undelivered mail or emails.

It’s important for both you and us that your personal information is correct. If you believe this not to be the case then please e-mail the amended details to privacy@bhlive.org.uk and we will contact you to verify your identity.

How we keep your personal information safe

We take our obligations to keep your personal data safe and secure very seriously.

Within BH Live, access to your personal information is strictly controlled on a ‘need to know’ basis. Staff members are only allowed access to your personal data if they have been sufficiently trained in data handling. We have specific technical controls in place to restrict access and these are monitored regularly. Our website is also monitored and protected to prevent it from unauthorised access.

All personal data sent to our trusted suppliers is protected. In all cases we require these companies to comply strictly with our instructions and they are not allowed to use your information for their own business purposes. We also require these companies to have sufficient organisational and technical measures in place to ensure the security of your data.

How long we keep your personal information

We keep your personal information in line with our data retention policy. If you wish to understand this further, please visit the privacy notices on BH Live Tickets and BH Live Active.

How you can find out about the information we hold about you

You have the right to request a copy of the information that we hold about you.

If you would like a copy of some or all of your personal information, please email or write to us using the contact details in this privacy notice.

We will get in contact to verify your identity and if we do hold information about you we will:

  • give you a description of it.
  • tell you why we are holding it.
  • tell you who it could be shared with.
  • let you have a concise and clear copy of the information.

Our legal basis for processing your personal information

Much of our processing will be under the basis of “contractual obligation” in other words we need and use your personal information for providing the services we offer or you have contracted with us for.

However, when you have unambiguously opted in to receive information from us, our processing will be based on consent. Of course you will always have the opportunity to object as detailed below.

Asking us to suppress or remove your personal information

Should you wish to not receive information from us in future then you can quickly action this by clicking the unsubscribe link you will find on our marketing e-mails or by sending your details to privacy@bhlive.org.uk  and we will quickly suppress your data

Should you further wish for us to remove your information entirely (and assuming we have no other obligation to keep it) then please let us know and we will do this – but we would encourage you to let us use it for suppression purposes only

For clarity Data Suppression refers to the removal of any unwanted records from a contact database.

What to do if you have a complaint

If you have a complaint please contact our Data Protection Officer at privacy@bhlive.org.uk  who will deal with your request promptly:

If you are not satisfied with the way your complaint was handled, you can refer your complaint to UK Information Commissioner’s Office at https://ico.org.uk/concerns/.
