Information that you provide to ticketlime

We may collect different Personal Information from you depending on the circumstances in which that information is collected.

For Visitors

We do not ask you to provide Personal Information if you are only a Visitor.

For Customers

As a Customer, you may be required to provide certain Personal Information to complete a booking or make a donation which may include your name, address and email address.

Customers have the option to enter a pseudonym when making a donation or purchasing tickets. Doing so may affect your interaction with the Event Organiser at the event.

If you make a payment for an event, or make a donation we may also collect financial information from you including your credit card number and expiration date. The credit card number is sent directly to our payment provider and not accessible by ticketlime. The payment provider shares a partial credit card number with ticketlime. We will retain the transaction details for an event for audit purposes.
