At Thekla we love welcoming you aboard for some of the best gigs, club nights and festivals that Bristol has to offer. Obviously, we don’t want you to miss out on anything so we like to keep in touch by dropping super exciting updates straight in your inbox to save you the work of having to keep an eye out yourself. In order to do this, Thekla and other Daybrook House Promotions Limited associate companies (hereafter referred to as ‘Thekla’, ‘we’, ‘our’ or ‘us’) collect bits of information from you and we do this in a variety of ways to make sure you only hear about things that you’re interested in. This privacy policy will explain the types of information we collect and what this information will be used for. If you are unsure about anything in this policy, would like any point explaining further or are just wondering where the Banksy disappeared to, you can get in touch on DPO@dhpfamily.com.

We’ll keep this for no longer than 6 years, at which point we’ll ask you to update your information and let us know you’re still happy for us to use this.
If you’ve given us your address for a competition, we’ll use this to send you your prize and then delete the info. |
