This site is a page about a musician and a form for asking him to play. It has no accounts, no analytics and no database. Most of what follows is what it doesn't do.
Who we are
This site belongs to Dan Magay, who is the data controller for everything described here. Pchol Kollektiv builds and maintains it for him.
Questions about any of this go to info@danmagaymusic.com, which reaches Dan.
What we collect
From reading the site: nothing. No analytics, no tracking pixel, no visitor counter. The site sets no cookies of its own and stores nothing in your browser.
The booking form doesn't send anything to us. When you press send, it opens your own email program with the message written and addressed to Dan. You send it or you don't. If you close it, nothing is sent.
So the only personal information we hold is what you put in an email: your name, your address and what you tell us.
Why, and on what basis
To read your message and reply, and to arrange a booking if there is one. Under the UK GDPR that is either our legitimate interest in replying to you, or steps taken before a contract, depending on where the conversation goes.
We don't profile anyone, sell anything, or add you to a mailing list you didn't ask for.
Who else touches it
Three other companies are involved:
- Google Fonts. The typefaces come from Google. Your browser fetches them from fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com, so Google sees your IP address. It sets no cookies for this.
- SoundCloud. The tracks play through SoundCloud's embedded player, which only loads when you press play. SoundCloud may then set cookies or record the play, under its own privacy policy. We don't see any of it.
- The domain registrar. It receives mail sent to the address above and forwards it to Dan's inbox, so it handles your message on the way.
Links to Spotify, YouTube, Facebook, Discogs and others are ordinary links. Once you follow one, that site's own policy applies.
How long we keep it
Enquiries are kept for two years, then deleted.
If a booking happens, its paperwork is kept as long as tax rules require.
Your rights
You can ask what we hold about you, and ask for it to be corrected or deleted. You can also object to us keeping it. Write to the address above and you'll get a reply within a month.
If you think we've handled something badly, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
Security, and the honest limit of it
The site is static files. There's no database, no login and no stored submissions, so there's nothing here to break into.
Email itself isn't private in transit, and once your message arrives it's only as safe as the mailbox holding it. If something is sensitive, don't put it in a first message to a saxophonist.
Children
This site isn't aimed at children and doesn't knowingly collect anything from them. When Dan teaches anyone under 18, it's arranged directly with a parent or school, not through this site.
Changes
If this notice changes, the date at the top changes too, and we'll say what changed.
