5) Our lawful justifications for processing
Ordinary personal data
Where we process ordinary personal data, we rely on one of the justifications below.
Consent
In many cases, especially when we are dealing with Customers, Musicians, or others who use our services, we will clearly ask for and rely on your consent to processing of your personal information, for example when you provide information in an online form. Where we rely on your consent, you can withdraw it at any time,
Legitimate interests
Sometimes, our processing is necessary for our legitimate interests or those of another party, but we will never rely on this justification when those interests are overridden by your rights and interests in relation to your data.
Legal obligation
In some circumstances we are legally obliged to share information. For example, under a court order (where we have considered we have a lawful basis on which to share the information and document our decision making).
Explicit consent
We do not normally ask for, or process Special Category Data. However, if there are exceptional circumstances where we rely on this, we will clearly ask for and rely on your explicit consent to processing your personal data for specified purposes, and, as in the case of ordinary personal data, you can withdraw your consent at any time.
6) Your Data Protection rights
Under data protection law, you have rights we need to make you aware of. The rights available to you depend on our reason for processing your information.
Your right of access
You have the right to ask us for copies of your personal information. This right always applies. There are some exemptions, which means you may not always receive all the information we process. You can read more about this on the ICO website here.
Your right to rectification
You have the right to ask us to rectify information you think is inaccurate. You also have the right to ask us to complete information you think is incomplete. This right always applies. You can read more about this on the ICO website here.
Your right to erasure
You have the right to ask us to erase your personal information in certain circumstances. You can read more about this on the ICO website here.
Your right to restriction of processing
You have the right to ask us to restrict the processing of your information in certain circumstances. You can read more about this on the ICO website here .
Your right to object to processing
You have the right to object to processing, if we are able to process your information because the process forms part of our legitimate interests. You can read more about this on the ICO website here.
Your right to data portability
This only applies to information you have given us. You have the right to ask that we transfer the information you gave us from one organisation to another or give it to you. The right only applies if we are processing information based on your consent or under, or in talks about entering into a contract and the processing is automated. You can read more about this on the ICO website here.
You are not required to pay any charge for exercising your rights. We have one month to respond to you.
Please contact us at theteam@starttofinishmusic.com if you wish to make a request.
7) Sharing your information
We will not share your information with any third parties for the purposes of direct marketing.
We may use data processors who are third parties who provide elements of services for us. These include organisations that provide our IT infrastructure, and manage the provision of goods and services to us.
We have contracts in place with our data processors. This means that they cannot do anything with your personal information unless we have instructed them to do it. They will not share your personal information with any organisation apart from us. They will hold it securely and retain it for the period we instruct.
Where we contract with third parties for the processing of your data, these may be located outside the UK (e.g. in the EU, or USA). When this is the case, we ensure the contracts we have in place with those third parties meet the requirements of data protection law.
8) Links to other websites
Where we provide links to websites of other organisations, this privacy notice does not cover how that organisation processes personal information. We encourage you to read the privacy notices on the other websites you visit.
9) Your right to complain
We work to high standards when it comes to processing your personal information. If you have queries or concerns, please contact us at theteam@starttofinishmusic.com and we’ll respond.
If you remain dissatisfied, you can make a complaint about the way we process your personal information to the ICO as the UK supervisory authority. Please follow this link to see how to do that.

We keep our privacy policy under regular review to make sure it is up to date and accurate.
