Privacy Policy

1. Scope

This policy applies to our website www.evadingsolaris.co.uk and to personal data you provide to us via the website (for example, using our booking enquiry form).

2. Information we collect

(a) Information you provide directly

When you use our booking enquiry form we collect:

• Name
• Email address
• Venue name (optional)
• Message / booking enquiry details

This information is used solely to respond to your enquiry and organise potential bookings.

(b) Information collected automatically

When you visit our site, certain technical data is collected automatically by third-party services we use (see section 4). This includes aggregated website usage statistics (page views, session durations) and interaction with embedded media.

3. Cookies & tracking technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

We use a cookie consent banner (e.g. via vanilla-cookieconsent) to gather your consent for non-essential cookies. You can manage or withdraw consent at any time using that banner or the “Manage cookies” option on the website.

4. Third-party services we use

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics (Google Ireland Limited) to generate anonymised statistics about website traffic. Google may process information such as your IP address; we use available configuration to anonymise IPs where possible and we only enable analytics after you give consent via the cookie banner.

More information: Google Privacy Policy.

If you wish to opt out of Google Analytics tracking in your browser you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

YouTube

We embed videos from our official YouTube channel. When you play these videos, YouTube (Google) may place cookies, collect usage statistics and personalise content. Embedded media is treated as non-essential and will only be loaded fully after you give consent.

More information: YouTube / Google Privacy Policy.

5. How we use your personal data

6. Data retention

Booking enquiries: details are kept only as long as necessary to respond to and resolve the enquiry. After a conversation has finished we will delete the message content from our email account unless retention is needed for a legitimate administrative or legal reason.

Analytics & media cookies: retention is controlled by the third party (e.g. Google) according to their policies.

7. Sharing your data

We do not sell or rent personal data. Booking enquiry details are shared only within the band management and any designated manager who needs the information to respond. We may disclose personal data if required by law.

8. International transfers

Google services may transfer or store data outside the UK/EU. These providers rely on appropriate safeguards and internationally recognised transfer mechanisms. See the third parties' privacy policies for details.

9. Your rights

• The right to access personal data we hold about you
• The right to request correction or deletion
• The right to withdraw consent for cookies at any time
• The right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (for the UK, the ICO: ico.org.uk)

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes in our operations or legal requirements. The “Last updated” date at the top will show the date of the latest version.

12. Cookie & consent implementation note

Our website uses a cookie consent tool to manage non-essential cookies. Non-essential cookies such as analytics and embedded-media cookies will not be used until you explicitly grant consent via the banner. The particular cookie used by the consent tool (name and expiry) may vary by configuration (commonly cc_cookie or similar).
