The Archertype Privacy Statement

The Archertype respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. The Archertype is the data controller for the purposes of data protection laws, which means we are responsible for deciding how and for what purposes your personal information is processed.

  • register to receive news or other forms of communication

  • access our social media platforms, such as Facebook and Instagram

Our purposes and legal bases for using your personal information

The Archertype will use your personal information for the following purposes:

  • to answer your queries

  • to process your bookings

  • to share photos and videos with you

  • to send you newsletters or other forms of communication

  • to fulfil any other purpose indicated at the time you voluntarily provide your personal information 

The law requires us to specify the legal bases that enable us to use your personal information. We use your personal information on the basis of:

  • Legitimate Interests – We want to host archery tag events and other forms of sporting entertainment for the public’s enjoyment. We want this to be available to as many people as possible and provide the best quality service possible. These are our legitimate interests, which permit us to collect and use your personal information in pursuit of the purposes listed above.

  • Performance of a Contract – We are permitted to collect and use your personal data if it is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract between us.

Keeping your personal information

We will only keep your personal information for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected. To determine the retention period of your personal information, we consider several criteria to make sure that we do not keep your information for longer than is reasonably necessary. These criteria include the purpose for which we hold your personal information, whether our relationship with you is ongoing, our legitimate interests and our legal obligations. Information that is no longer needed will be deleted or anonymised so that you cannot be identified from it. We endeavour to provide you with the highest quality of service possible.

Sharing your personal information

The Archertype will treat your personal information as private and confidential and will not share it within The Archertype in order to facilitate the fulfilment of the purposes listed above. However, we may share your personal information with third parties outside The Archertype where you permit us or where the law requires us to do so.
