Privacy policy
Last updated 2 November 2026
This policy explains what personal data Live Music Radar processes when you use livemusicradar.net and its country pages, and your rights. We aim to collect as little as possible.
Who is responsible
The controller of your data is Live Music Radar (livemusicradar.net). Privacy contact: privacy@livemusicradar.net.
What we process and why
| Data | Purpose | Legal basis |
|---|---|---|
| Technical logs of each request (IP address, time, page, browser type) kept by our hosting provider | Deliver the site, keep it secure, stop abuse | Legitimate interest (art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) |
| Anonymous usage statistics (pages and concerts viewed, searches, clicks on ticket and official-page buttons, device type, approximate region) through Google Analytics; we keep a copy of these statistics for our own analysis | Understand and improve the site | Your consent (art. 6(1)(a)); nothing is sent to Google until you accept |
| Clicks on ticket links that pass through our redirect (event, time, page where you clicked; the technical request data above) | Send you to the ticket seller and measure affiliate referrals | Legitimate interest |
| Emails you send us (address and content) | Answer you, handle corrections and removal requests | Legitimate interest; legal obligation where applicable |
| Your choice about statistics (stored in your browser, not sent to us) | Remember your cookie choice | Strictly necessary for your choice |
Your location is only used if you press "Near me" and allow it in your browser. It picks your country on your device; your position, rounded to about 1 km, is then sent with the request that lists nearby shows, so it can appear in the technical request logs above. We do not store it otherwise or link it to you. We do not run personalised advertising today; if we do in the future, it will only happen with your consent through a consent banner, and this policy will be updated first.
Who receives data
Service providers acting for us: Google (hosting and, with your consent, Google Analytics). When you follow a ticket link, the ticket seller and its affiliate network become independent controllers of what happens on their sites. When you press play on a video, YouTube (Google) loads and may set cookies. We do not sell personal data.
International transfers
Google may process data outside the European Economic Area. Such transfers rely on the safeguards the provider offers, such as the EU-US Data Privacy Framework or standard contractual clauses.
How long we keep it
Hosting logs: as set by the hosting provider. Analytics (in Google Analytics and in our own export): no longer than 14 months. Emails: as long as needed to handle your request, then deleted or archived for the legal period.
Your rights
You can ask us for access to, correction, deletion or portability of your data, object to processing based on legitimate interest, restrict processing, and withdraw consent at any time (see Cookie policy). Write to privacy@livemusicradar.net. You may also complain to the data protection authority of your country.
Children
The site is not directed at children under 16 and we do not knowingly collect their data.
Changes
We update this policy when what we do changes. The date at the top shows the latest version.
