In short, we respect your privacy. Because privacy is important to all of us, we put together the following so you can understand how we collect, communicate, disclose, and make use of any personal information you might provide.
Terms & Conditions
Please review our Terms & Conditions, which also governs your visit to our website, to understand our practices.
What information do we collect & what is it used for?
Information you provide directly to us:
During the purchase process, we collect personal data from you (which may include your name, email address, phone number, etc.) which is securely stored on the partner services we use to process these transactions (ie not on our own servers). Our store operates under the e-commerce platform Ecwid.com whose privacy policy can be found here: https://www.ecwid.com/privacy-policy. Behind the scenes, all payments are securely processed by the online payment processor or ‘Gateway’ Square, whose privacy policy can be found here: https://squareup.com/gb/legal/privacy. If during a purchase you opt-into subscribing to our email list, sign up for our newsletters on TomRush.com, or add your name to our subscriber list during one of the concerts, we will keep you abreast of any news and events related to Tom Rush and upcoming shows. For the TomRush.com newsletter, we use email marketing partner MadMimi.com whose privacy policy can be found here: https://www.godaddy.com/Agreements/Privacy.aspx.
We will protect your personal information by reasonable security safeguards against loss or theft, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use or modification. Under no circumstances will your information be sold or traded to any 3rd party. You may also unsubscribe at any time from our email list, by following the unsubscribe link in any of our marketing emails.
