Privacy Notice
The Band holds little. What it holds, it keeps to itself. The following is the full account.
What is held.
An enquiry submitted through this site provides a name, an email address, a type of occasion, and any further detail chosen to be included. A telephone number, if given. Nothing further.
No location data. No device fingerprint. No browsing history. No profile.
The site carries no tracking cookies. No analytics pixel. No third-party script observes your visit. Cloudflare serves the site and records aggregate traffic at the network level; this identifies no individual. If you visit without enquiring, nothing is held about you at all.
What is done with it.
The information provided is used for one purpose: to reply to the enquiry.
It is not sold. It is not profiled. It is not passed to any marketing service. If an enquiry does not result in a booking, the data is deleted. If it does, the Band retains a name and contact details for the duration of the engagement. Nothing beyond what one would expect a professional to keep on file; nothing retained thereafter.
The legal basis for processing is legitimate interest. You wrote to us. We are writing back.
The infrastructure.
Enquiries submitted through the form are delivered via Resend (resend.com), a transactional email service, which transmits the data to the Band's inbox. Resend retains nothing further. Their privacy policy governs their handling of the data in transit.
The Band's correspondence runs on Proton Mail, which uses end-to-end encryption. The company that carries the mail cannot read the contents. The Band chose this because discretion applies to the correspondence as much as to the occasion itself.
The site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Standard server logs are retained briefly for security purposes and then discarded.
Your rights.
You may ask what is held about you. You may ask for it to be corrected. You may ask for it to be deleted entirely. Under UK GDPR, these are rights, not requests.
Write to [email protected]. A response within 30 days; in practice, considerably sooner, as there is very little to look up.
Data controller.

For those who want to know more
A note on email.
If you are reading this section, you are the kind of person who reads privacy notices properly. It is worth addressing you directly.
Email is not, by default, private. A message sent through most commercial providers passes through servers operated by large technology companies, where it can be read, indexed, and retained. Most services are built on the assumption that few people know this.
Proton Mail works differently. End-to-end encryption means that the message is encrypted on the sender's device before it crosses any network, and decrypted only on the recipient's. The company holding the infrastructure holds no key. This is a technical fact, not a marketing statement.
Proton operates from Geneva under Swiss privacy law, which is not subject to the surveillance provisions of the US Cloud Act and offers stronger protections than either EU or UK frameworks in several material respects.
If you write to the Band from a Proton Mail address, the exchange is completely private at the infrastructure level. If you write from another provider, your end of the correspondence is as private as that provider permits. For an engagement of a private nature, this is worth knowing.
