Privacy notice

This site (the9075.com) is operated by The 9075. References to “we”, “us” or “our” below mean The 9075. If you have any questions about this notice or about how we handle your data, contact us at info@the9075.com.

We collect personal data in the following ways:

• Contact form submissions — when you send us a message via the contact form on the home page, we collect the name, email address, and message you provide.
• Server logs — when you visit any page or submit the form, our server records the IP address you connected from and the browser user-agent string. This is used for abuse prevention and rate limiting only.
• Meta Pixel tracking— when you visit any page on this site, a small piece of code from Meta (Facebook) runs in your browser and sends Meta the page URL, your IP address, basic browser/device info, and some interaction signals (e.g. link clicks). See the “Meta Pixel” section below for full detail.
• Setlist vote submissions — when you vote on the setlist for a specific show, we collect your first name, email address, your song picks, any comment you leave, the IP address and browser you voted from, and the consent statement you agreed to. See the “Setlist voting” section below.

On selected shows we run a public “vote for the setlist” page where fans can pick songs they'd like added to the night's set.

What we store on our side: your first name, email address (lowercased; we store a hash of it as the document key so the email itself isn't in the URL of your record), the songs you picked, the one song you marked as your “Lose Your Mind”, any optional comment, the IP and browser you voted from (for spam protection), and a verbatim snapshot of the consent statement you agreed to at the moment you submitted.

What we send to MailerLite: when you tick the consent box and submit, your first name and email are forwarded to MailerLite (our mailing list provider) so we can add you to our subscriber list and keep you in the loop about the band. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link at the bottom of every email we send.

Lawful basis: your explicit consent for the mailing list subscription; our legitimate interest (running the band) for storing and aggregating the votes themselves.

One vote per email per show. We block duplicate submissions on our side.

We use the Meta Pixel (a tracking tool provided by Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd) to measure the effectiveness of our advertising on Facebook and Instagram, and to show our ads to people who have visited this site (“remarketing”).

What gets sent to Meta: every time you load a page on the9075.com, your browser sends Meta the URL of the page, your IP address, your browser and device information (user-agent, screen size, referrer), and certain interactions such as outbound link clicks. Meta also sets its own cookies in your browser via this pixel.

Purpose: to understand which ads led people to our site, to measure ad performance, and to show ads on Facebook and Instagram to people who have visited this site or pages with similar audiences.

Lawful basis:our legitimate interest in promoting the band's gigs and reaching potential fans through paid advertising. You can opt out of personalised ads from Meta in your Facebook ad preferences and via your browser's tracking-prevention settings.

Meta acts as an independent data controller for the data it receives via the pixel. Its use of that data is governed by Meta's own Privacy Policy.

This site uses two categories of cookies:

• First-party functional cookies — set only in the back-office area (/admin) for authenticated staff. They keep the sign-in active and remember interface preferences. As a regular visitor you'll never receive these.
• Third-party cookies from Meta — set by the Meta Pixel (see section above) on every page of this site for advertising measurement and remarketing purposes.

• Contact form data — to read and respond to the message you sent us. Lawful basis: our legitimate interest in being able to reply to people who get in touch.
• Server logs — to detect and block automated abuse of the site (e.g. spam submissions, brute-force login attempts on the admin area). Lawful basis: legitimate interest in keeping the site secure.
• Meta Pixel data— to measure ad performance and reach potential fans through paid advertising on Facebook and Instagram. Lawful basis: legitimate interest in promoting the band's gigs.
• Setlist vote submissions — to count votes and build a setlist informed by fan preference. Lawful basis: legitimate interest. The mailing-list signup that runs alongside the vote uses explicit consent (the GDPR checkbox), separately recorded.

Only the band's authorised admins (a small fixed list of email addresses) can read contact-form submissions through the back-office. We do not sell, share, or rent your data to anyone.

To run this site we rely on a small number of infrastructure providers, who process data on our instructions only:

• Vercel — hosting
• Google Firebase — data storage (EU region)
• Upstash — rate limiting
• Resend — email delivery when we reply to you
• MailerLite — mailing list subscriber management for fans who consent at the setlist-vote page
• Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd — advertising measurement and remarketing via the Meta Pixel (see “Meta Pixel” section above). Unlike the providers above, Meta acts as an independent data controller for the data it receives, not as our processor.

Our infrastructure providers (Vercel, Firebase, Upstash, Resend, MailerLite) are bound by GDPR-compliant data processing agreements and don't use the data for their own purposes. Meta uses the data it receives under its own privacy policy.

We keep contact-form submissions until an admin manually deletes them or until the data is no longer needed for the purpose it was collected. There is no automatic expiry.

Server logs (IP, user agent) are kept for the lifetime of any given submission they relate to. Older request logs handled at the platform level (Vercel, Upstash) follow each provider's own retention schedule.

Under UK GDPR you have the right to:

• Ask for a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
• Ask us to correct or delete it.
• Object to our use of it where we're relying on legitimate interest.
• Withdraw consent (where consent is the lawful basis).
• Lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) if you think we've mishandled your data.

To exercise any of these rights, email us at info@the9075.com.

If we change this notice we'll update the “Last updated” date at the top. Material changes (e.g. new types of data collected) will be flagged more prominently.
