We may require more information from you in order to provide additional services or, in some circumstances we may require further details from you to make an investigation. Additional information required could include:
• Information about disabilities or special needs so we can provide assistance for you or a member of your party
• Copies of any correspondence sent by you to us or us to you.
• IP address, cookie and website usage related data if you use our website and have consented
• Details of Banyan Theater Company memberships, ticket purchases, donations made, and any other activities you may have undertaken with us.
• CCTV images taken when you visited us.
We use profiling tools to help us better understand our audiences as a whole and to plan future marketing and communications campaigns.
More Information
With the exception of CCTV images, all customer data is held on a single, centralised database which is operated and managed exclusively by Banyan Theater Company. That system records sales information, tracks communications to and engagement with each individual customer. For some customers this might also include sensitive information, relating to dietary requirements or disabilities which are used to provide specific services to those customers when they visit us.
CCTV images are held on a separate security system and are in place to provide as part of our customer and staff safeguarding procedures.These images are automatically deleted every 30 days unless where they form part of any ongoing investigation. These systems can only be accessed by trained, authorised Banyan Theater Company staff whose use of them is monitored and audited. Access is granted solely for the purpose of individual staff members being able to effectively undertake their jobs and is regularly reviewed. In the case of an incident or unusual event whilst you are with us, we may ask your consent to record more personal information so that we can investigate a situation you are involved in.
How long do we hold your data?
After a period of 6 years of inactivity, we permanently erase all your personal data.
