Who we are

Kritikal Soundsystem provides audio systems and event services in Bristol, the South West and beyond. For anything about your data, contact seamusmulvey1@gmail.com or call +44 7835 309229.

For the purposes of UK data protection law we are the data controller for the information described here.

What we collect

We only collect what you type into a form on this site.

Booking enquiries

• Your name, email address and, if you give it, your phone number
• Event details: name, date, venue, expected headcount, indoor or outdoor, music, whether you need an engineer, and your budget range
• Anything you write in the free text box

Merch notifications

• Your email address, if you ask to be told when merch goes on sale

What we do not collect

• No analytics or tracking of any kind
• No advertising or third-party marketing pixels
• No third-party requests at all unless you press Feel it to play the video — see below
• No payment details — this site never asks for card information
• No accounts, so no passwords

Video

Pressing Feel it on the home page opens a video hosted by YouTube. Until you press it, this site makes no request to YouTube or to Google at all — the player is not loaded, not hidden, not preloaded. Nothing about you reaches them unless you ask for the video.

Once you do, the player is embedded through youtube-nocookie.com, which is Google's reduced-tracking mode: it does not set advertising cookies for a visitor who does not press play. Google still receives your IP address and basic device information in order to send you the video, and their own privacy policy applies to that. Closing the video removes the player from the page entirely.

Cookies

This site sets no cookies of its own. It stores one preference in your own browser's local storage, kritikal:theme, which remembers whether you chose dark or light and whether you asked for the 3D rig to move. It never leaves your device, and clearing your browser data removes it.

Why we hold it, and on what basis

We use enquiry details to quote for your event, plan the system and get in touch about the booking. The lawful basis is taking steps at your request before entering into a contract, and our legitimate interest in responding to people who ask us to.

Merch notification emails are used only for that, on the basis of your consent. Every notification will include a way to be removed.

Who else sees it

We keep this list as short as we can. We do not sell your details to anyone, ever.

Email delivery

Enquiries are delivered to us by email. Depending on how the site is hosted this may pass through a transactional email provider before it reaches our inbox.

Hosting

The site is served by a static hosting provider, which will process standard server request data such as IP addresses in order to serve the page and block abuse.

Our own inbox

Enquiries land in a standard email account and stay there.

How long we keep it

Enquiries are kept for as long as we may need them for the booking and for our own business records, and no longer than TO CONFIRM: retention period, e.g. 24 months after the event or after the enquiry goes cold. Merch notification addresses are kept until you ask to be removed.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law you can ask us to:

• Give you a copy of what we hold about you
• Correct anything that is wrong
• Delete it
• Restrict or object to how we use it
• Provide it in a portable format

Email seamusmulvey1@gmail.com and we will deal with it within one month. There is no charge.

If you are not happy with how we have handled it, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk, though we would rather you told us first so we can put it right.

Children

This site is aimed at people booking events and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect details from anyone under 16.

Changes

If this notice changes we will update the date at the top of the page.
