Your personal data is never used by them to contact you, nor passed or sold on to any other agencies or companies, and we have agreements in place to ensure this.
We fully support the Arts Groups within Tamworth and occasionally sell tickets on behalf of groups who do not have their own box office. These groups may use their own staff or volunteers and their own processes to admit customers on the door at their venue, and so require a list of customers who have booked for the performance to assist them with this.
