Whenever you provide personal data, Eastman will handle it according to the policy set out in the text below, which complies with the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) from May 25th 2018.

Eastman is a data manager (a person who is responsible for the processing of your personal data) in regard to all data that Eastman receives and collects when you use our services.

1 - How do we collect your data?

Your personal data can be collected via various channels. From you directly:

From a third party, like a co-producer or collaborator. From social media channels, like facebook. From website cookies: Our website uses cookies, which retain information about your online behaviour, preferences and settings, and your digital journey across our website. Cookies and logging of IP addresses are collected to enable Eastman to monitor site traffic and repeat visitor statistics through Google Analytics. It is processed in a way which does not identify any individual; such information is anonymous and held on a temporary basis (see 9 - Cookies).

2 - Which information do we collect?

• Contact details: Eastman collects the contact details that you provide yourself.
• Social media: The information that you share on one of Eastman’s social media channels is collected through that platform. If you post information online, you can not violate the rights of others. It also means that others can use your information, tag it and/or repost in unexpected ways (sometimes illegitimate). Eastman can use or repost any information that you post online on the website or social media channels of Eastman.

 

3 - Why do we collect your data? And on what legal basis?

Eastman uses the collected data for the following purposes, out of legitimate interest:
• To provide you with service information, send personalised invitations, job alerts and press releases

Eastman does not conserve personal data longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was provided or is required by law.

4 - What choices can you make about how we use your data?

When you contact Eastman, purchase something from the website or register for an educational activity, we ask for your consent to collect your personal data. You retain the right to look into, to correct or to remove the personal data that you shared with us. Please contact us directly if that is the case (see 10 - Questions or complaints).

5 - Sharing your data with third parties

Certain personal data may be passed on to third parties, which enables us to carry out the reasons for data processing as mentioned above. We never pass on data to third parties with whom we did not establish an agreement. Third parties include:
• Co-producers and artistic collaborators
• Government institutions: when permitted by law, we may also share information requested by a government institution or authority to protect or enforce our rights or the rights of a partner, or to detect and prevent fraud and other crimes.
• A company successor: when permitted by law, we may provide your information to a successor to use it for purposes that are consistent with this privacy statement - and we may also provide this information to a potential successor - but only if we have taken the necessary steps to ensure that the security and confidentiality of the information remains guaranteed.
• Other third parties: like the website and email administration. Eastman enters a processing agreement with the processors that is in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) of 25 May 2018. This way we know whether they are GDPR compliant.

 

6 - Data of children and youngsters

The shows, activities and website of Eastman are accessible to young people. Eastman does not consciously collect information from children and youngsters. If you are a parent or legal guardian and you think your child has provided us with information, do not hesitate to contact us.

7 - Which safety measures are used?

Eastman is committed to protecting the personal information you entrust to us. We adopt robust and appropriate technologies and policies, so the information we have about you is protected from unauthorised access and improper use. The security measures Eastman uses, depend on the nature of the collected information. However, the internet is not 100% secure. Eastman cannot promise that our website is completely secure. We advise to be careful when using the internet.
