Why we collect your Personal Data

The primary purpose for which we collect information about you is to enable us to perform our business activities and functions and to provide the Services to you.

Other legitimate purposes that you agree we can collect, hold, use and disclose your Personal Data for include but are not limited to the following:

To provide you with access to the Sites.

To approve transactions you wish to make.

To send you invoices and receipts.

To respond to requests submitted by you.

To enhance our products and services.

To verify your identity.

For our administrative, planning, product/service development, quality control and research purposes, or those of our contractors or external service providers.

To provide you with information about any festivals or events for which you have registered as an attendee whether by purchasing a ticket, registering for access, being registered as the holder of a ticket or minor pass, by having a ticket transferred to you or by any other means by which you may be registered as an attendee.

To contact you with information which we think you may find interesting, only where you have opted in to receiving such communication and until you withdraw such consents.

To run competitions, promotions, and giveaways.

To comply with legal and regulatory requirements.

To prevent, detect and investigate potential illegal activities, security breaches and fraud; and/or as otherwise required or permitted under any applicable law.

For the avoidance of doubt, we will only use your Personal Data for purposes that you would reasonably expect us to use your Personal Data for in connection with operating and providing the Services to you, or where we are required by law to collect your Personal Data. We will not sell, rent, or license your email address or any of your Personal Data unless we have otherwise obtained your express consent to do so.

We recognise your right under the Spam Act 2003 (Cth) and the GDPR to opt out from direct marketing, and as such these consents can be modified at any time by emailing us at info@a3festival.com, or by clicking ‘unsubscribe’ on any direct marketing communications.

Please note certain non-marketing related correspondence from us, including messages relating to payment, will be automatically sent to you by virtue of your use of the Services and you may not have the option to unsubscribe from receiving this correspondence.

Who we disclose your Personal Data to

You agree and consent that we may disclose your Personal Data to:

Our directors, officers, employees, contractors, consultants and agents.

External service providers for the operation of our business, and our professional advisers such as accountants and solicitors, marketing agencies, financial service providers, payment gateways, e-commerce platforms and technical support;

Our Related Bodies Corporate (as that term is defined in the Corporation Act 2001 (Cth) and other entities owned or controlled by our directors and officers.

Our existing or potential agents, business partners or joint venture entities or partners, including our third-party ticket merchants and ticket resale merchants.

Our sponsors or promoters (as advertised on our Sites from time to time).

Specific third parties authorised by you to receive information held by us.

The police, any relevant authority or enforcement body, or your Internet Service Provider or network administrator, if we have reason to suspect you have committed a breach of our terms and conditions or have been engaged in unlawful activity, and we reasonably believe disclosure is necessary as required or permitted by any law (including the Privacy Act).

We will take reasonable steps to ensure that these third parties are aware of our Privacy Policy and are bound by Australian privacy laws.

You can withdraw your consent for us to share your Personal Data with third parties at any time by emailing info@a3festival.com, but please note that withdrawal of such consents may affect your ability to access and use the Services.

What are your rights to your Personal Data

You have a general right to access any Personal Data about you that is held by us, unless a valid exception applies. You can request access to your own Personal Data by emailing us at info@a3festival.com.

We cannot modify or alter your Personal Data. You acknowledge that it is your responsibility to maintain the truth, accuracy, and completeness of your information and your failure to do so may inhibit our ability to provide the Services. You agree that you remain solely responsible for maintaining the truth, accuracy, and completeness of your information at all times, and we shall have no liability to you or any third party arising from your failure to do the same. If you believe that Personal Data we hold about you is incorrect, incomplete or inaccurate, you may request that we amend it by emailing us at info@a3festival.com.

In accordance with the GDPR, we acknowledge the right of EU subjects to:

request a copy of all Personal Data held about you by us in a readable format, along with supplementary information to verify that such Personal Data is being processed lawfully; and

External Links

Our Sites may contain links or plugins to other third party websites or applications, including to our third-party ticket merchants or ticket resale merchants. Please note that this Privacy Policy does not cover the privacy practices of any third party site. We do not have access to, or control over, the technologies that third party sites may use to collect information about you. We disclaim all liability in connection with the services of any third party sites integrated or otherwise linked to our Services. If you have any concerns about the privacy practices of a third party site, we encourage you to reach out to them directly.

Security

We protect your Personal Data through technical security measures i.e. firewalls, encryption that limit the risk of loss, disclosure, unauthorised access and modification. No security measures are, however, 100% secure so we cannot guarantee the security of your information or data at any time. To the extent permitted by law, we accept no liability for any breach of security, or direct hacking of our security measures, or any unintentional disclosure, loss or misuse of any information or data or for the actions of any third parties that may obtain any information or data.

Notwithstanding the above, we acknowledge our obligation to report any data breach that is likely to risk the rights and freedoms of natural persons to the Australian Information Commissioner and, where our data breach involves the information of EU subjects, report to the European Data Protection Supervisor. We will also inform you, where possible, if your data has been breached in the circumstance where it poses a risk of serious harm or your rights and freedoms.

We also train our personnel who may have access to your Personal Data about this Privacy Policy and our obligations under the Privacy Act, APPs and GDPR. For more information on our internal policies, email us at info@a3festival.com.

Overseas Disclosure

We may, in the course of providing any products or services to you, disclose Personal Data to overseas countries that are deemed by the EU Commission as having an ‘adequate’ level of Personal Data protection. Where we transfer data to a third party in a country where no adequacy decision has been made, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that the person or entity handling your data in those countries are bound under contract to meet the requirements of the Privacy Act, APPs and GDPR (as applicable).
