Who we are

Phono Lake Festival is organised by [TODO: legal entity name, e.g. Phono Lake Festival B.V. / Stichting], registered in the Netherlands.

TODO Stef: vul juridische entiteit + KvK-nummer in. Bijvoorbeeld "Phono Lake Festival B.V., KvK 12345678, gevestigd te Amsterdam".

What data we collect

When you pre-register through the form on phonolakefestival.org, we collect only your email address. Nothing else.

Why we collect it

To send you news and updates about Phono Lake Festival 2026, including line-up announcements and ticket sale dates. The legal basis is your consent (GDPR Art. 6.1.a / AVG art. 6.1.a), given by submitting the form and confirming the opt-in email.

Double opt-in

Submitting the form does not subscribe you immediately. You will receive a confirmation email; only after clicking the confirmation link will your email address be added to our mailing list. If you don't confirm, your address is discarded.

Who processes your data

We use Mailchimp (Intuit Inc., USA) to manage our mailing list and send emails. Mailchimp acts as our data processor under a Data Processing Agreement, with EU Standard Contractual Clauses for international data transfer.

See Mailchimp's DPA and Mailchimp's privacy notice.

How long we keep it

We keep your email address on the mailing list until you unsubscribe, or until [TODO: 1 year after the festival ends if you've never opened an email] — whichever comes first.

TODO Stef: bevestig de retentietermijn die je wil hanteren. Standaard advies: tot uitschrijving, of na X maanden inactiviteit (geen opens/clicks) automatisch verwijderen.

Your rights

Under the GDPR / AVG you have the right to:

TODO Stef: kies een privacy-contact email. Voorstel: privacy@phonolakefestival.org die doorstuurt naar de marketeer of naar jou.

Cookies & marketing analytics

To measure the impact of our online marketing and to build audiences for future advertising, we use the Meta Pixel (Facebook/Instagram tracking technology) on this website.

What it does: when you accept tracking via the consent banner, the Meta Pixel loads in your browser and reports page views, clicks, and form submissions to Meta. When you successfully pre-register, we also send a hashed (one-way encoded) version of your email address as a "Lead" event so Meta can match you to ads you may have seen.

Who processes this data: Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd (data controller for EU users) and Meta Platforms Inc (USA), under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. See Meta's privacy policy and Business Tools Terms (which contain the data processing terms).

Legal basis: your consent (GDPR Art. 6.1.a / AVG art. 6.1.a). Without consent, the Meta Pixel does not load and no data goes to Meta.

How long: Meta retains pixel event data per their own policy (typically up to 2 years for unhashed identifiers). Hashed data may be retained longer for audience matching.

Withdraw consent: use the "Manage preferences" button above. Setting it to "Decline" stops the pixel from loading on future visits. You can also clear your browser cookies / localStorage to reset your choice.

This site sets no other tracking cookies. We do not use Google Analytics, advertising cookies from other networks, or session-recording tools.

Changes to this notice

If we update this notice, we'll change the "Last updated" date at the top. Significant changes will also be communicated via email to subscribers.
