What we use your personal information for
We aim to be clear when we collect your data and not to do anything you wouldn’t reasonably expect.
If you make a purchase, sign up for an event or give a donation we usually collect your name, contact details and the sites you purchase your tickets through would hold your bank or credit card information (if making a transaction). Where it is appropriate (and you have the right to decline to give this information) we may also ask for your age, gender, ethnicity, information relating to your health or, if making a donation, why you have decided to donate to us.
We use this data to provide you with the events, products, services or information you asked for, ensure we know how you prefer to be contacted, understand how we can improve our communications or events, administer your donation or to process Gift Aid.
When you register on our website, you can choose whether you would like to receive our newsletter, events news and fundraising communications. You can manage your preferences at any time. We will not contact you for marketing and fundraising purposes unless one of these boxes is ticked. We will include opt-out instructions in any marketing or fundraising communications you receive from us.
Giving you control
With your consent, we will tell you about events, concerts and workshop offers. We make it easy for you to tell us how you want to hear from us and you can opt out from these marketing communications at any time – every email sent to you will tell you how to do this.
We do not sell personal details to third parties for any purpose. We will only share personal details for the purposes of marketing if you have given explicit consent for us to do this. But if we run an event in partnership with another named organisation your details may need to be shared in order that they can help us run the event.
If you have opted out of marketing communications, we may still get in touch with you. For example we may email you to give you important information about the events you’ve booked or to tell you about any changes to that event.
We will give you the opportunity to opt out, at any time, from any marketing or fundraising email communications and postal fundraising communications you receive from us.
Third Parties
We may share anonymised personal information with other organisations, particularly Arts Council England, who use this to analyse our audience development programmes, ticket sales and self-generated funding to understand the impact of the public investment made in Theatre Orchard.
Many of the events are presented in partnership with other companies such as other artistic organisations and promoters. We will let them know about your booking but will not share your details.
We will not otherwise share your personal information with third party organisations.
Sensitive information
Sometimes we ask you to provide sensitive information, for example when you book for certain events or participate in some activities, or when you apply for a job. As with all the personal information we hold, sensitive information is held securely and restricted to those who need to use it. We will delete sensitive information when we no longer need it.
