VIP-Booking ApS is the data controller for personal data processed in connection with these Services.
2. Our Approach to Privacy
Our Services are professional information services and are not intended to collect or publish private information about individuals.
The information contained in our professional databases is primarily business and professional information, such as:

We do not seek to collect sensitive personal information such as information concerning health, racial or ethnic origin, religious or philosophical beliefs, political opinions, trade union membership, genetic or biometric information, or information concerning a person's sex life or sexual orientation.
Where information identifies an individual, even in a professional context, it may constitute personal data under applicable data protection legislation and is treated accordingly.

These interests include maintaining professional industry directories, keeping business information accurate, providing professional research tools, securing our Services and communicating with businesses and industry professionals.
We seek to balance these interests against the rights and interests of the individuals concerned.

Where required, we may rely on your consent, for example for certain marketing communications or non-essential cookies.
You may withdraw your consent at any time.
Legal obligations
We may process or retain information where necessary to meet accounting, tax, regulatory or other legal obligations.
6. Professional Listings
VIP-Booking.com and related Services contain professional information about companies, organisations and industry professionals.
The presence of a person or company within one of our professional databases does not necessarily mean that the person has created an account or is a customer of VIP-Booking ApS.
Professional information may have been obtained from public or professional sources.
Depending on the Service and subscription level, professional information may be accessible to registered users, subscribers or other authorised users.
If you believe professional information concerning you is incorrect, outdated or should not be included, you may contact us at VIP@VIP-Booking.com.

Where personal data is transferred outside the EEA, we take appropriate steps where required by law to ensure that the information receives an adequate level of protection, including using recognised transfer mechanisms where applicable.
11. Data Retention

Account and customer information is retained for as long as necessary to provide the Services and for an appropriate period afterwards where required for administration, security, dispute resolution or legal obligations.
Accounting and transaction information may be retained for the period required under applicable accounting and tax legislation.
Technical logs are retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for security, troubleshooting, statistics and operation of the Services.
Professional business information contained in our industry databases may be maintained for as long as it remains relevant to the professional purpose of the database. We regularly seek to update information and may remove information that is no longer relevant or accurate.
12. Cookies
Our Sites may use cookies and similar technologies.
Some cookies are technically necessary for functions such as:
- user login;
- account security;
- session management;
- remembering essential settings; and
- operating the Sites.
Where permitted by law, technically necessary cookies may be used without consent.
Analytics, advertising or other non-essential cookies will only be used where permitted under applicable law and, where required, after the user has given consent through our cookie consent system.
You can change or withdraw your cookie preferences through the cookie settings available on our Sites or through your browser settings.
13. Newsletters and Marketing Communications
If you subscribe to VIP-News or other communications, we may use your professional contact information to send relevant industry news, product information or other professional communications.
Where consent is legally required, communications will only be sent after obtaining the necessary consent.
You may unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time by using the unsubscribe function included in the communication or by contacting us.
Service-related messages necessary for administering an account or subscription are not considered marketing communications and may continue while the relevant Service is being provided.

To make a request, contact:
Please include sufficient information for us to identify the relevant data and understand your request.
15. Accuracy and Removal of Professional Information
Because our Services provide professional industry information, distinguishing between private information and professional information is important.
A business email address, professional telephone number, job title, agency affiliation, company information or artist roster may constitute personal data where it relates to an identifiable individual, even though it is professional rather than private information.
If you believe information relating to you is:
- inaccurate;
- outdated;
- no longer professionally relevant; or
- being processed unlawfully,
you may contact us at VIP@VIP-Booking.com.
We will review the request in accordance with applicable data protection law.
16. Security
We use appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, loss or misuse.
Access to personal and account information is limited to employees, contractors and service providers who require access for legitimate business purposes.
No internet service or information system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and users should take appropriate care when submitting information online.
17. Links to Other Websites
Our Sites may contain links to websites operated by third parties.
VIP-Booking ApS is not responsible for the privacy practices, security or content of third-party websites.
We encourage users to review the privacy policies of external websites before providing personal information to them.
18. Children's Privacy
VIP-Booking.com, VIP-Contracts.com and BandPitch.com are professional B2B services and are not intended for children.
We do not knowingly seek to collect personal data from children through our professional databases or Services.
19. Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our Services, business practices, technologies or legal requirements.
The current version will be published on our Sites together with its effective date.
