Aggregated Data

We sometimes anonymise the personal data we collect (so it can no longer be used to identify you as an individual) and then combine it with other anonymous information so that it becomes aggregated data. Aggregated data helps us identify trends (such as the percentage of website visitors visiting a particular webpage on our website). Data protection law does not govern the use of aggregated data and the various rights described below do not apply to it.

What happens if you do not provide your personal data?

Some of the personal data we request is optional and we can provide our services without that information. In other cases, if you do not provide the information you may not be able to benefit from the full range of services on our Website.

How we use your information

UK data protection law requires controllers to identify a legal justification (also known as a lawful basis) to collect and use your personal data. There are six lawful basis which organisations can rely on to justify their collection and use of personal data.

Whenever Music Marmalade acts as the controller for personal data, we rely on the following lawful basis:

to comply with a legal obligation that we have;
to do something that you have given your consent (permission) for.

The table below provides more detail about the reasons Music Marmalade may use your personal data. If we intend to use your personal data for a new reason that is not listed in the table, we will update this document and notify you.

Where your information is located or transferred to
Music Marmalade will only transfer personal data outside the UK where we have a valid legal mechanism in place (to make sure that your personal data is guaranteed a level of protection, regardless of where in the world it is located, e.g. by only sending it to territories approved by or under contracts approved by UK Secretary of State).
If you access our service whilst abroad then your personal data may be stored on services located in the same country that you are.
How we keep your information safe
We have security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally or illegally lost, used or accessed by those who do not have permission. These measures include:
- access controls and user authentication
- internal IT and network security
- regular testing and review of our security measures
- staff policies and training

- business continuity and disaster recovery processes
If there is an incident which has affected your personal data, we will notify the regulator and keep you informed (where required under data protection law).
How long we keep your information
We will only keep your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for or as long as required to fulfil our legal obligations.
When we consider how long to keep your personal data, we will consider whether it is still necessary to keep it for the purpose which we collected it or whether the same purpose could be achieved by holding less personal data. We will also consider the volume, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data and the potential harm to you if there was an incident affecting your personal data.
If you browse our website, we keep personal data collected through our analytics tools for only as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for (see our cookie information below).
We keep the contact details of people who have subscribed to our mailing lists until we receive a request to remove their details or unsubscribe them.
Your legal rights
Under UK law, you have specific rights in relation to your personal data. If you are located outside the UK, you may have different or additional legal rights. If you want to exercise any of these rights, please email hello@musicmarmalade.com.
UK data protection law grants the following legal rights:
- the right of access (obtaining a copy of your personal data)
- he right to rectification (correcting your personal data)
- The right to erasure (deleting your personal data)
- The right to restrict processing (to stop use of your personal data for a time limited period)
- The right to data portability (to move your personal data to another organisation)
- The right to object (to object to our use of your personal data)
- The right to complain to the ICO (you can find further details of how to do this on their website) - note: if you are located outside the UK, you can also complain to the regulator responsible for data protection compliance in the country you are located.
There are some limited exemptions to these rights, so they may not apply in every scenario and Music Marmalade may decline your request (but we would explain our decision in writing if this was the case). Music Marmalade will also not action a request where we have been unable to confirm your identity (this is one of our security processes to make sure we keep information safe) or if we feel the request is unfounded or excessive.
