Website email capture: we use an embedded form linked to the email distribution platform MailChimp to allow people to sign up to The Mailing List by inputting their name and email when they visit the homepage of www.emmaballantine.com.

4. How we use your personal data

 

We will only use emails added to The Mailing List for the purpose of emailing members with updates relating to the musical activities of Emma Ballantine.

 

We have conducted a legitimate interests assessment to ensure that emailing members of The Mailing List in this way is supported by our legitimate interests as a business and that your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests. The interests identified are as follows:

 

  • We have an interest in gathering data in this way because it provides a database of people who have signed up to receiving updates about Emma Ballantine that can be used for promotional purposes.

 

  • The Data Subjects have an interest in their data being used in this way in that it supports their wish to be kept informed of The Artist’s musical activities.

There are no other artists currently signed to Shut Up Jo Records Ltd., but for the avoidance of doubt, data submitted to the Emma Ballantine mailing list will never be used to contact you about any other artists or projects undertaken by The Label.
