Privacy policy

EILISH (eilish.co.uk and eilish.world) is an independent music news and gig guide. We are the data controller for the personal data described in this policy. Questions about your data can be sent to privacy@eilish.co.uk.

• Submissions. When you submit an event or music news we store the details in the form, including your name, email address, organisation and role, so our editors can verify and follow up.
• Cookie choices. A cookie remembers whether you accepted analytics and advertising, so we do not ask again on every visit.
• Analytics. Only if you allow it, Google Analytics records pages viewed, approximate location, device and browser type. IP addresses are not stored by us.
• Advertising. Only if you allow it, our advertising partners may use cookies and device identifiers to show and measure ads, including personalised ads.
• Server logs. Our hosting provider keeps short-lived technical logs (IP address, request time, browser) to run and secure the site.

• Consent for analytics and advertising cookies. You can withdraw it at any time.
• Legitimate interests for reviewing submissions, keeping the site secure and remembering your cookie choice.
• Legal obligation where we must keep or disclose information by law.

Visitors in the UK and EEA are asked for consent before any analytics or advertising cookies are set. Consent is managed through Google's consent management platform, certified under the IAB Transparency and Consent Framework, and Google Consent Mode. Strictly necessary cookies, such as the one storing your choice, do not need consent.

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time:

• Google (Analytics, Ad Manager and consent messaging).
• AdNordics and its demand partners, who sell and serve advertising on the site. The full list of authorised sellers is published in our ads.txt file.
• Vercel (hosting) and Supabase (database), who process data on our behalf.

Some of these providers process data outside the UK and EEA, including in the United States. Where they do, transfers rely on adequacy decisions such as the UK-US Data Bridge and the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, or on standard contractual clauses.

• Submissions: up to 24 months after the event or story, then deleted.
• Your cookie choice: 12 months, after which we ask again.
• Google Analytics data: 14 months.

You have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict the use of your data, to object to processing, to data portability and to withdraw consent. Email privacy@eilish.co.uk and we will reply within one month.

You can also complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk or to the data protection authority where you live.

Ticket links, maps and nearby places (from OpenStreetMap) take you to other services with their own privacy policies. We do not control how they handle your data.
