OUR DATA PROMISE
The Norfolk Brickyard is committed to protecting your privacy and data. We will use the information that we collect about you in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation 2018 and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003.
WHO WE ARE
We aim to be clear when we collect your data and not do anything you wouldn’t reasonably expect. Developing a better understanding of our customers and supporters through their personal data allows us to make better decisions more efficiently and, ultimately, helps us to reach our goal of being a landmark centre for creativity, camping and glamping in north Norfolk and the East of England. This privacy policy sets out the ways in which we use your data and how you can hold us accountable for that.
WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?
You give us your information when you book, by phone or online via our website; by joining the Friends schemes; by signing up for one of our other events or workshops; by taking part in a survey from us; by applying for a job with us; or by communicating with us. We also keep your details when you sign up to receive emails from us.
The information we hold about you may include:
- Your name
- Postal address
- Telephone number
- Email address
- Booking history
- Billing address information
- Direct Debit instructions
- Donation history
- Gift Aid declaration
- Your preferences for how we communicate with you about our activities
- Information that is available publicly
We maintain a record of your transaction history, but we never store your payment card number (although we keep a note of the last four digits to help us identify transactions). We keep a record of the emails we send you, and we may track whether you receive or open them so we can make sure we are sending you the most relevant information. We may then track any subsequent actions online, such as buying a ticket.
HOW DO WE USE YOUR DATA?
This information, alongside your purchase and/or donation history, is used to select and inform you of other relevant events or activities we think may be of interest to you.
We use your data to:
- Provide you with booking dates or respond to information you have asked for
- Contact you if there are any important changes to your booking
- Administer your booking, Friends membership or donation, including processing gift aid
- Keep a record of your relationship with us
- Ensure we know how you prefer to be contacted
- Occasionally undertake customer research to help us understand how we can improve our services or information
- Tell you about changes in our services or new services, events offers, and opportunities to support us that we think you’ll find of interest
- Analyse your personal information to create a profile of your interests and preferences so that we can contact you with information most relevant to you
If you do not want to receive information by post or email about events, offers, our fundraising activities or customer research, you have the option to change any of your contact preferences at any time by contacting the us via the contact details at the end of this policy. We may combine information you provide to us with anonymised information available from external sources (e.g. Census data) in order to gain a better understanding of our audiences and visitors. We use profiling and segmentation to ensure communications are relevant and timely, and to provide an improved experience to our customers and supporters. When building a profile we may analyse geographic, demographic and other information relating to you in order to better understand your interests and preferences in order to contact you with the most relevant communications.
THIRD PARTIES
We will not share any of your personal details with any other third parties without your agreement, unless required in order to fulfil our contract with you, or allowed by law (for instance, if a safeguarding issue arises). In general, the third-party providers used by us to fulfil our contract with you will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us. We have agreements in place with each to ensure that your data is secure at all times, and cannot be accessed or used for any other purpose. Your personal data is never sold on to any other agencies or companies.
Our website may contain links to and from the websites of other organisations. If you follow a link to any of these websites, please note that these websites have their own privacy policies and that we do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies. Please check these policies before you submit any personal data to these websites.
GIVING YOU CONTROL
Unless you ask us not to, we will tell you about shows, concerts, priority booking and opportunities to support us. Occasionally, we may include information in these communications from partner organisations or organisations who support us (for example other local organisations, companies that perform here, or suppliers). You can opt out from these communications at any time – every email, or post sent to you, will tell you how to do this.
HOW WE KEEP YOUR DATA SAFE
Your personal data will be held and processed on The Norfolk Brickyard’s systems. Some information will be held on external encrypted mailing services such as MailChimp and dotmailer (in which cases you will alerted to this, and urged to make yourself familiar with their own privacy policies). Where possible we aim to keep a single record for each customer. Your data is always held securely. Access to customer information is strictly controlled. It is held in the UK and the processes are EU compliant. We may need to disclose your details if required to the police, regulatory bodies or legal advisors.
SENSITIVE INFORMATION
Sometimes we ask you to provide sensitive information, for example regarding access and disability, or book for certain workshops, or when you apply for a job. We are committed to safeguarding children, young people and vulnerable adults and do all we can to ensure that all who work with us, whether on stage or joining an education project, are safe and inspired by their experience. For the details of children under 16, we will ask for the consent of a parent/guardian to provide such information. We will always require the carer’s signature on similar documentation relating to vulnerable adults. As with all the personal information we hold, sensitive information is held securely and restricted to those who need to use it. We will delete information when we no longer need it.
CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make any significant changes in the way we treat your personal information we will make this clear on our website or by contacting you directly.

You have the following rights related to your personal data:
- The right to request a copy of personal information held about you (which we will provide within one month of the date of request, free of charge, unless the request is repetitive, unfounded or excessive)
