Privacy Policy

The Exeter Little Theatre Company (ELTC) is committed to safeguarding your privacy online. This Privacy Statement applies to the website eltc.org.uk.  ELTC reserves the right to change this privacy policy from time to time, so please check back periodically.

How do we collect your personal data?
When you engage with us as an audience member, donor or as a participant, we collect your information. This could be when you purchase a ticket or a membership, make a donation, audition for a role or otherwise become involved with one of our productions, sign up to our mailing list, or make contact with us via our website. These interactions may occur online, in person or over the phone.

What data do we collect?
We only collect information that’s necessary to carry out our business or to deliver our charitable objectives. The more ways you engage with us as an organisation, the more data we will require in order to provide the necessary services required. There are occasions where you can choose to not provide us with the information we require, but this will then impact the service we are able to provide.

Social Media
Depending on your settings or the privacy policies for social media services like Facebook, Instagram or Twitter, you may give us permission to access information from those accounts or services, such as your behaviour on these services and across our site.  The majority of this behaviour is anonymised.  For more information on how to control your privacy settings for these services, please see the privacy policies for the services concerned.

Why do we collect your data and how do we use it?
The main ways we use your information are to respond to your enquiries, administer your membership and keep you up to date with the activities of ELTC. We will only contact you electronically about non-membership related information when we have your consent to do so.

Mailing List
ELTC may gather your email address through our website contact form or when you provide your contact details to us at auditions or through membership applications.  We will use these contact details to deliver mailings containing ELTC news and event information. You may opt out of this mailing list at any time (see Choice/Opt-Out below). 

Links to Other Sites
Our website and mailings may contain links to various websites. Please be aware that these links and websites are not controlled by ELTC and that ELTC has no responsibility for the content, operation or privacy practices of the websites linked to by us. 

Security Measures to Protect Your Information
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, ELTC cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or from our online products or services, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we make every reasonable effort to ensure its security on our systems.

Choice/Opt-Out
In order to stop receiving mailings from the ELTC mailing list, you will need to unsubscribe by sending an email to eng@eltc.org.uk
