In May 2018 a huge change comes in which affects businesses large and small. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has been developed to protect your personal information from being misused or sold without your knowledge or consent. It affect us because we keep your information that is collected from the booking process and any images we take during your parties.
Why Do We Collect Your Information?
As a client we want to be able to keep in touch with you which is why we collect your name, phone number and email. We also may from time to time send limited email offers, reminders, and keep in touch so we can retain your custom.
We also have to keep our records for Tax purposes and this also means we have to keep data historically for a number of years after your booking. This is all pretty standard data collection and something we'd expect the majority of our competitors also do.
Where Do We Keep Your Information?
Thankfully our past choices have really helped us tick the box of data security. All of our booking information is held in 2 locations and both have advised us that they are complaint for GDPR. All of the booking and contact forms you fill out come into our G-Suite email account and on our Client Management System, DJ Event Planner. We have been advised in an email from Google recently that they are happy that they meet the requirements for Data Protection.
DJEP is also secure and access is limited to just myself. On here we keep a copy of the information gathered in the booking forms because it allows us to manage your booking better. This system is how we manage our workflow on a daily basis and removes the need for anything to be stored locally on our PC, using a paper diary or online calendar.
What Information Do We Keep?
The hard information we collect includes; name, contact number, email address and social media account (if contacted via through a social media site like Facebook, Twitter or Instagram). We also hold images taken during your event which we use for our website, social media and publications. Your face is also considered a method of identification in this policy hence the term Photo ID.
What Are Your Rights?
The GDPR includes the following rights for individuals:
We will of course accept any Subject Access Request so if you ever want to know what data we hold of yours, please just email us we'll be happy to help..
Your Consent To Hold Your Information
We have added a checkbox to our booking process which seeks permission to record, manage and use your information under the governance of the GDPR. This is because there has to be what is called a positive opt in, which cannot be inferred by silence, pre-ticked boxes or inactivity. We have to make you clearly aware that we are holding this information.

As always Funtasia Discos aims to go above and beyond and is keen to demonstrate we really care about our clients, something that you don't find with budget companies. Of course there are some pretty stiff fines if your non-compliant and imagine if your supplier was hit with a hefty fine which caused them to go out of business before your party... As always thanks for reading and hope this puts your mind at ease.
