How we collect information about you

We may collect and store information about you whenever you interact with us. For example, when you sign up to our newsletter, register for an event, submit an enquiry, apply for a job, make a donation, or otherwise give us any other personal information. We may also receive information about you from third parties for a specific purpose – but only if you’ve given them permission to share your information.

What information we collect

Personal data we collect may include your name, address, email address, phone number or the name of your employer, your role and workplace address and email. We collect this data through our contact forms, registration forms, event booking forms, application forms, surveys, competitions and our marketing mailing list. We may also collect your bank account details, if for example you are setting up a donation by direct debit.

We also use Google Analytics to monitor how people use our site so we can improve it. We do this by using cookies, which you can learn more about by reading our cookie policy. Cookies collect information anonymously, including the number of visitors to our site, where visitors have come to our site from and the pages they visited. So you can use our website without giving us any personal information and we won’t know who you are.

We may also use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our website and monitor use of our website.

If you’re aged 16 or under, please obtain your parent or guardian’s permission before providing any personal information to our site.

Use of Cookies

You can find information about our use of Cookies in our Cookie policy.

How we use the data we collect

We use your data to contact you with information you would reasonably expect or have agreed to, like shows and projects, fundraising, and to send general marketing communications.

You can unsubscribe from our marketing communications at any time either by emailing info@paraorchestra.com or by clicking the ‘Unsubscribe’ link in a marketing email.

We don’t share, sell or use your personal data for profiling purposes - and keep personal data only as long as either necessary for legitimate and essential business purposes, or if we are legally obliged to do so.

We will never share your details with other organisations to use for their own purposes unless you have given us your consent, for example if you consent for us to share your data with a partner organisation.

How we make sure the data we collect from you is secure

We take appropriate measures to ensure that we keep your personal data secure, accurate and up to date, and that we only keep it as long as is reasonable and necessary.

Although we use appropriate security measures once we have received your personal information, the transmission of information over the internet is never completely secure. We do our best to protect personal information, but we cannot guarantee the security of information shared to our website, so this is at your own risk.

Accessing your information
