Umut Berkay

Who is responsible for your data?

Umut Berkay is the data controller for personal data collected through this event storefront. The technical infrastructure is provided by Verimly (operated by Bidtofix Limited, United Kingdom), acting as a data processor on behalf of Umut Berkay.

For questions about how your data is used, please contact the organizer directly. Verimly's own privacy practices are described in the Verimly Privacy Policy at verimly.com/privacy.

What data we collect

When you purchase a ticket or register for an event, we collect the following personal data:

• Name and email address — to identify you and deliver your tickets • Payment information — processed securely by Stripe; we do not store your card details • Order details — ticket type, seat selection (where applicable), quantity, amounts, and purchase date • Refund and payment-dispute records relating to your order • Ticket check-in status — when your ticket's QR code is scanned at the event

While you browse this storefront, an anonymous visit session is also recorded: a random session identifier, the page you are viewing, your IP address and the approximate (city-level) location derived from it, your browser type, and the site that referred you. This visit data is not linked to your name or email unless you complete a purchase. If you start a checkout and enter your details without completing it, the organizer can see that incomplete (abandoned) checkout, including the contact details you entered.

How we use your data

Your personal data is used solely to:

• Process your ticket purchase and send confirmation emails • Deliver your e-tickets and order receipts • Admit you at the event by validating your ticket at check-in • Handle refund or cancellation requests • Show the organizer aggregate visitor and sales activity for this storefront • Respond to any support enquiries you raise • Prevent fraud and secure the ordering process

Your data is not sold, and it is not used to send you marketing unless you separately agree to that with the organizer.

Legal basis for processing

We process your personal data on the following legal bases under the GDPR and UK GDPR:

• Performance of a contract — processing your order and delivering your tickets requires us to handle your personal data. • Legitimate interests — securing the storefront, preventing fraud, and giving the organizer visibility into their own sales and visitor activity, where this does not override your rights. • Legal obligation — keeping transaction records required by accounting and tax law.

How long we keep your data

Order data (name, email, ticket details) is retained for as long as necessary to fulfil legal and financial obligations, typically up to 7 years for tax record purposes.

Anonymous visit sessions and abandoned checkout data are operational and short-lived; they are kept no longer than 12 months.

Data collected through analytics or advertising tools is governed by the respective third-party provider's retention policies.

Third parties

We share your data with the following categories of third parties only where necessary:

• Verimly (Bidtofix Limited) — provides the ticketing platform and processes data on our behalf under a data processing agreement, using vetted sub-processors for hosting (Vercel), database (Neon), and email delivery (Resend) • Stripe — handles payment processing and stores payment data securely

We do not sell your personal data.

Your rights

Under the GDPR and applicable data protection law, you have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you • Request correction of inaccurate data • Request deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten") • Restrict or object to processing • Withdraw consent for analytics or marketing cookies at any time via the cookie banner • Lodge a complaint with your national data protection authority

To exercise any of these rights, contact the organizer or submit a request through your order confirmation email.
