Privacy Notice
Our Privacy Notice has been designed with you in mind. How the notice applies to you will depend on how you interact with us. For example, if you:
1. You purchase a ticket for one of our events, we will use the information you provide to fulfil our obligations to you in the provision of that service, and, where you have instructed us to do so, to keep you informed of other events that may be of interest to you; and
2. When you browse our sites we will use cookies to personalise your experience and to hopefully provide you with a seamless experience.
What Information We Have and Where We Get It
- When you create an account or purchase a product (such as a ticket, or merchandise) from us, we will collect your contact and billing information.
- When you purchase tickets for one of our events, or for an event we co-promote, we will receive your information from the ticketing agents used to sell tickets for the events we promote and co-promote, or for the venues we hire for the staging of the event. This will include your name, contact details and ticket purchase information such as the number of tickets purchased and seat number(s).
- When you attend one of our events, we may collect information from you (i) through video surveillance cameras (we use warning signs where these cameras are in use), (ii) from our free Wi-Fi (if you sign up to use it) and, where available, through electronic payment wristbands that can be used to access events and to make purchases at the venue where the event is being held.
- When you use our websites or apps, we will collect information such as the browser and device you are using, your IP address, your location, the site from which you accessed it, what you did and did not use our site/app for, or the site you access after visiting our site/app. For additional information on how we collect this information, please see our Cookie Policy
- When you use a social media feature within our website or app and make a social media post, the social media site will provide us with some information about you.
- If you have any accessibility requirements, we want to ensure you have the best experience when attending events. To do this, we will need to collect details of your requirements (which may involve you providing us with information about your mental or physical health).
- On the rare occasions when we collect personal information from children, we always seek parental consent and, in any event, we will collect such information only for the purposes specified at the time of collection.
- We use providers that collect geo-demographic data to help us more effectively personalise the services we provide to you. If you prefer that we do not do this, see the 'Your Rights and Choices' section below.
How we use your information and why
In this section we explain how we use your information and the legal basis for this.
1 . For the performance of our contract with you
We use your information when you enter into a contract with us (for example when you purchase goods or a ticket) so that we can:
- Process your order
- Receive payment, and
- Providing customer care.
-
2. For our legitimate business interests
- To conduct market research and analysis to help us improve and customise our products and services.
- For our marketing purposes, unless such marketing requires your consent (see section 3 below).
- To send you customer service emails, including booking confirmations and event reminders.
- To prevent or detect unlawful behaviour, to protect or enforce our legitimate rights or as otherwise permitted by law. For example, to ensure that tickets are received by genuine fans. Therefore, we may use your information to prevent ticket resale, misuse of our intellectual property (e.g. our trademarks or those of our Event Partners), fraud, or other crimes.
- To create a profile about you to help us personalise our services to you. For example, if you purchase tickets to pop events and have agreed to receive marketing communications from us, we will let you know about other pop events that we think may be of interest to you.
- In relation to your personalisation settings
If we know you better, we can give you more of what you want. To make sure our messages and website are relevant to you, we create a user profile with the information we know about you and how you use our services.
- How to deactivate personalisation
Simply uncheck 'Allow personalisation' in your account settings. We will stop any personalisation and only use your data for essential services, such as fraud detection.
- What happens if you deactivate personalisation?
Ya no utilizaremos sus datos para determinar qué podría interesarle. This means that you will not receive any personal recommendations and any newsletters you have subscribed to will be generic (although if you have requested to receive alerts about specific artists or venues, you will continue to receive such information).
We will continue to engage in profiling activities where this is necessary to provide our services to you, for example, for fraud detection purposes and where you specifically request us to do so, for example, when you indicate an artist as a favourite.
- Is disabling personalisation the same as disabling cookies?
No, son independientes. Para controlar sus ajustes de cookies podrá utilizar nuestra herramienta de aceptación de cookies. See our Cookie Policy for further information.
- To ensure the security of our operations and the operations of our Event Partners.
When you have given us your consent
- To contact you with information or offers about our upcoming events, products or services - these communications may be made via email, push and web notifications, SMS, or social media. You may change your marketing preferences at any time; to do so, please see the 'Your choices and rights' section below. However, please note that in cases where there is a prior contractual relationship between both parties, we will also be entitled to send you these types of communications, and you may express your refusal at any time by sending your request to administracion@madcool.es.
- To provide you with location-based services - such as through our festival apps, which allow you to see where you are on the map, so that we can use your location to send you push notifications about what is happening around you.
- For crowd management analysis - some of our apps use crowd management software so we can see how many people are in a particular venue, or when bars are busiest. This helps us allocate our resources more efficiently. We turn it on a bit before the festival or event, and turn it off a bit after, so we don't track devices when we don't need to.
- To send personalised marketing and advertising communications on our websites and app (see our Cookie Policy for further information.
- To process your health data for the purpose of meeting your accessibility requirements, where specifically requested and where express consent is given.

- With third parties who supply the products and services purchased by you (e.g., merchandise) so that they can process and fulfil your orders.
