Boring Stuff

We at Draaimolen believe that the privacy of our visitors, ticket buyers, newsletter subscribers, artists, partners and other people who interact with us is important.

This privacy statement explains which information may be collected through www.draaimolen.nu, why it is used, and what choices you have. We recommend that you read it carefully.

Who we are

This website is operated by Draaimolen.

For questions about this privacy statement or the way we handle personal data, please contact:

What we collect through the website

The Draaimolen website is mainly an information, editorial and event website. You can browse the website without creating an account.

Depending on how you use the website, the following information may be processed:

  • technical information needed to load and secure the website, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, requested pages, timestamps and basic request information
  • aggregated website usage and performance information
  • information you submit yourself, for example when signing up for the newsletter or contacting us by e-mail
  • limited browser storage used for interactive website features

We do not use the website to create advertising profiles about visitors.

Website hosting and technical delivery

The website is hosted on Vercel. Like most hosting providers, Vercel may process technical request data in order to deliver, secure and monitor the website.

The website uses Sanity as a content management system. Website content and images may be delivered from Sanity’s content infrastructure, including the Sanity image CDN.

This technical processing is necessary to make the website available, keep it secure and make sure it works properly.

Cookies and local storage

The website does not use first-party tracking cookies for advertising or profiling.

The website may use limited browser storage, such as local storage, for interactive features. For example, the website may remember anonymous artist puzzle progress on your own device. This information is stored locally in your browser and is not used by Draaimolen to identify you.

You can clear this stored state at any time through your browser settings. Some interactive features may reset after clearing site data.

Analytics and performance

The website uses Vercel Web Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights to understand page usage and website performance.

These tools are used for aggregated measurement and performance monitoring rather than individual tracking. We use this information to understand which pages are visited, how the site performs, and how we can improve the website experience.

We do not currently use Google Analytics on this website.

Embedded media and forms

Some pages may include embedded media or forms from third-party services such as YouTube, SoundCloud and Brevo.

These embeds are loaded only after you choose to load or play them. Before that moment, the website shows a placeholder and does not load the embedded third-party content.

Once you choose to load or play embedded content, the relevant third-party service may receive technical information from your browser and may process data according to its own privacy policy.

Newsletter

Newsletter signup forms are provided through Brevo.

If you sign up for the newsletter, the information you submit, such as your e-mail address, is used to send you Draaimolen updates, including news, events, announcements and related communications.

You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of an e-mail.

Tickets and external services

Ticket purchases, merchandise, social media, video, audio and other external services may be provided through third-party websites or platforms.

When you click a link to an external service, you leave the Draaimolen website. Those services have their own privacy practices and policies.

If Draaimolen receives personal data from ticketing or event-related partners, that data may be used where necessary for event access, customer support, safety, administration, accounting, reporting and event communication.

Communication

If you contact us by e-mail or another communication channel, we may use the information you provide to respond to your message and handle your request.

Personal data, such as e-mail addresses, may be used to keep you informed about Draaimolen updates where you have signed up for this or where we are otherwise allowed to contact you.

Sharing data

We do not sell personal data.

We may share data with service providers where this is necessary to operate the website, send newsletters, manage events, process tickets, provide support, maintain security, or comply with legal obligations.

Where we use service providers, they may only process personal data for the agreed purpose.

We may also share aggregated or anonymised information for reporting, funding, audience research or organisational purposes. Such information is not intended to identify individual people.

Retention

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, unless a longer retention period is required or allowed by law.

Newsletter data is kept until you unsubscribe or request deletion, unless we need to keep limited information for legal or administrative reasons.

Communication data is kept for as long as needed to handle the request and for reasonable administrative follow-up.

Ticketing or transaction-related data may be kept for the period necessary for event administration, accounting, fraud prevention, legal obligations and dispute handling.

Security

We consider the security of personal data important and take reasonable measures to protect the systems and services we use.

No website or online service can be guaranteed to be completely secure. If you notice a possible security issue, please contact us at info@draaimolen.nu.

Your rights

Depending on your location and the applicable law, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, deletion of, restriction of, or portability of your personal data. You may also have the right to object to certain processing or withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.

To make a request, contact us at:

info@draaimolen.nu

We may need to verify your identity before handling certain requests.

Withdrawing consent and browser controls

You can unsubscribe from newsletters by using the unsubscribe link in the e-mail.

You can clear cookies and local browser storage through your browser settings. Some website features may reset after clearing site data.

For embedded media and forms, third-party content is loaded only after you choose to load or play it.

Changes to this privacy statement

Draaimolen may update this privacy statement from time to time. When we do, we will update the date on this page.

We recommend checking this page periodically so you know how we handle privacy and data.
