Privacy Policy

Who I am

Hi! My name’s Laura Musgrave and I’m a recording artist and songwriter, based in the UK.

Under the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR), I am a data controller. A data controller determines how and why personal data is processed.

What data I collect

I only collect information about you if I have a reason to do so. This includes:

  • questions, queries or feedback you leave, including your email address if you contact me
  • your email address and subscription preferences when you sign up to my email list
  • your phone number when you sign up to my text messaging (SMS) list
  • how you use my emails – for example whether you open them and which links you click on
  • how you use my social media links page (Komi)
  • information on how you use the site, using cookies and website tags

Why I collect it

I use WordPress, run by Automatic Inc, to manage and monitor my website. This includes information about how you use the website. I do this to help make sure the site is meeting your needs and to help me make improvements.

WordPress standard stats service stores information about:

  • the pages you visit on lauramusgravemusic.co.uk
  • which country your device is in, from your Internet Protocol (IP) address
  • how you got to the site
  • what you click on while you’re visiting the site

I also collect data in order to:

  • improve the site by monitoring how you use it
  • gather feedback to improve my services, for example my email alerts
  • send email alerts or SMS messages to users who sign up to receive them. I use Mailchimp and Komi to manage and monitor my email  and SMS contact list.

What I do with your information

The data I collect is only used for the purposes listed above. Your data will only be shared with and processed by the third party providers mentioned above to provide those services. For example, providing my email updates using Mailchimp or Komi, or SMS updates using Komi.

I will not sell or rent your data to third parties.

I will share your data if I am required to do so by law – for example, by court order, or to prevent fraud or other crime.

How long I keep your data

I will only keep your data as long as is necessary. You can unsubscribe from my email list at any time using the link at the bottom of each email. Follow instructions to opt out of SMS updates.

Where your data is processed and stored

How I protect your data and keep it secure

I am committed to doing all that I can to keep your data secure. I also make sure that any third party providers that I deal with meet the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR).

You have the right to request:

  • information about how your personal data is processed
  • a copy of that personal data

  • request that your personal data is erased if there is no longer a justification for it
  • ask that the processing of your personal data is restricted in certain circumstances

If you have any of these requests, get in touch.

Changes to this policy

I may change this privacy policy. If so, the last updated date at the bottom of this page will also change. Any changes to this privacy policy will apply to you and your data immediately.

If these changes affect how your personal data is processed, I will take reasonable steps to let you know.
