At The Birks Cinema we are 100% committed to maintaining the trust and confidence of our customers and website visitors by safeguarding their privacy and personal data.
This privacy policy was created in line with GDPR regulations to ensure you know exactly what happens to the personal data we collect from you or that you provide to us when you visit our website and/or perform actions on our website.
The policy will explain what personal information we collect, why and when this will happen, how we use it, when we may disclose it to third parties, and how we keep it secure.
Our goal is to collect as little information as we need. There are some cases where your information will be collected, and we make this clear when it occurs.
If you subscribe to an email list we collect:
We use this information to:
We request this information through the subscription form on our website.
You can unsubscribe from marketing and newsletter emails or update your information at any time by clicking the links at the bottom of any of the emails or by contacting us at support@birkscinema.co.uk.
If you submit a contact form on our website we collect:
We use third-party platforms and service providers (including providers of website hosting, security, finance applications, marketing, and payment providers) to perform tasks and provide services on our behalf and therefore need to share your relevant information with them to provide products and services related to your subscription.
Personal data may be shared with government authorities and/or law enforcement officials if required, if mandated by law, or if needed for the legal protection of our legitimate interests in compliance with applicable laws.
Most importantly, we never sell, rent, or trade any of your personal data with any other business or organisation.
We maintain administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect the personal data you provide to us and take all reasonable precautions to keep your personal information secure. To prevent unauthorised access, modification or misuse, access to your information is only permitted amongst a limited number of relevant employees and Trustees of The Birks Cinema Trust, and third-party platforms in order to carry out services.
To provide you with our service we will retain a record of your personal information for as long as it is necessary and will do so in accordance with GDPR regulations.
You are entitled to view, amend or delete the personal information that we hold. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes. Please email your request to support@birkscinema.co.uk.
The regulations provide six lawful bases under which we may process your data. Typically, there are three bases under which we will process your data:
When you make a purchase from us or make a donation to us, you are entering into a contract with us. In order to perform this contract we need to process and store your data. For example we may need to contact you by email or telephone in the case of cancellation of a show, or in the case of problems with your payment.
In certain situations we collect and process your personal data for purposes that are in our legitimate organisational interests. However we only do this if there is no overriding prejudice to you by using your personal information in this way. We describe below all situations where we may use this basis for processing.
For any situations where other bases are not appropriate, we will instead ask for your explicit consent before using your personal information in that specific situation.
When you register online, sign up to a newsletter or opt-in to our communications using any of our forms (eg. a donation form or online form) or in person, then you are giving us your consent to send you film and event communications and fundraising materials by the methods you have chosen (e.g. email). We will never send you film and event communications without your consent, and you can withdraw your consent at any time. If you have provided us with your postal or telephone contact details, but haven’t specifically opted-in to receive our communications (for example, making a donation by post), then we will carry out an assessment of whether it would be fair and reasonable to use them to send marketing event and research or fundraising information to you without your explicit consent (i.e. it is in the interests of our aims as a charity and will not cause undue prejudice to you). This is called a “legitimate interests assessment”. You can opt out of our communications at any time if you don’t want to receive them.
We will ensure we have a legal basis to use your personal information for the other purposes mentioned in this policy (usually with your consent, further to a legitimate interests assessment, or because the use of your data is necessary to comply with a legal obligation).”
