Privacy Policy

Effective Date: September 3, 2025

1. Who’s behind this policy
This Privacy Policy applies to DollFest, the femme-powered music and arts festival operated via dollfest.net (“we,” “our,” or “DollFest”). It explains what data we collect, how we use it, and how we protect it.

2. What we collect

  • Provided directly: Email for tickets, merch, waitlist, newsletters.

  • Automatically: Cookies, IP addresses, browser/device type—for analytics and smoother browsing.

  • Optional extras: If someone uploads photos or fills out forms (like surveys or artist applications), that content and any contact info they include.

3. Why we collect it

  • Essentials: To deliver tickets, send merch, update you on fest news.

  • Functional: To track site performance and improve your experience.

  • Marketing (only if you opt in): To announce lineup, merch drops, or festival updates.

4. Who sees it

  • Internal team—security’s tight, but they’ve got access to do their job.

  • Trusted service providers (email platform, ticketing service, web host)—only as needed, with NDAs and data protection in place.

  • Only if we must: legal compliance or emergencies. We don’t monetize your info.

5. Cookies & tracking
We use tech like cookies and analytics tools to monitor site performance and usage. You can disable cookies, but some functionality might break.

6. Your rights (where relevant)

  • Request access to what we know about you.

  • Ask us to fix it, or delete it (especially if you're in California or the EU).

  • Opt out of marketing at any time.

7. Data retention
We keep your info only for as long as needed: to fulfill your order or request, plus a reasonable short-term hold for customer service or legal obligations.

8. Safety first
We use standard security practices—no silver bullet though; data transmission over the internet is never 100% secure.

9. Kids & inclusion
Not designed for children under 13. If we learn data from someone under 13 was provided, we’ll delete it fast.

10. Changes to the policy
We’ll update this as needed and mark the date at the top. If it’s a big shift, you’ll know.
