Privacy Policy

At StageHound, we approach everything we do in a transparent, open, and accountable way. We believe that privacy matters and promise to always respect yours. To this end, we adhere to the Mozilla Foundation's privacy recommendations also known as the *Privacy Not Included buyer’s guide.

We will never sell your information. Ever. Period. We Promise.

This privacy policy provides how Mindtonic, Inc., DBA StageHound (hereafter StageHound), uses and protects any information that you give or share when you use this website. StageHound is committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. Should we ask you to provide certain information by which you can be identified when using this website, then you can be assured that it will only be used in accordance with this privacy statement. StageHound may change this policy from time to time by updating this page. You should check this page from time to time to ensure that you are happy with any changes. This policy has been effective since January 1, 2022, and was last updated February 23, 2024.

What do we mean by "personal information?"

For us, "personal information" means information which either directly identifies you (like your name, email address, or billing information) or can be reasonably linked or combined to identify you (like an account identification number or IP address). We’ll always tell you what personal information we’re collecting from you.

Any information that falls outside of this is "non-personal information."

If we store your personal information with information that is non-personal, we will consider the combination as personal information. If we remove all personal information from a set of data then the remaining is non-personal information.

We may collect the following information:

  • Name
  • Contact information including email address
  • Demographic information such as post code, preferences and interests
  • Other specific information requested by Event holders.

How do we learn information about you?

We learn information about you during the checkout process when you buy tickets. In this case, you give it to us directly. We also learn information about you when you sign up for an account organically, contact us for help or support, or are checked in to an Event. We also try and understand more about you based on browsing behavior. For example, when we use your IP address to customize language for some of our services. This information is strictly used in an effort to prevent fraud and minimize abuse.

Why is your information required and what we do with the information we gather?

We require this information to understand your needs and provide you with a better service, and in particular for the following reasons:

  • To allow Event holders to look up your ticket purchase, check-in guests, and manage entry to the Event.
  • Internal record keeping.
  • Fraud prevention.
  • Improve our products and services.
  • To customize the website according to your interests.
  • We will never sell your information.

Your basic personal information (name and email address) will be shared with the Event provider for the explicit purpose of checking you in to the Event.

Either StageHound or any Event provider from whom you have purchased tickets may periodically send promotional email about events, new products, special offers or other information which we think you may find interesting using the email address which you have provided. From time to time, we may also use your information to contact you for market research purposes. We want you to want to receive these emails! You will always be provided the opportunity to unsubscribe from non-transactional emails. Transactional emails such as our log in links, reset password notifications, and receipts will always be required.

What do we do with your information once we have it?

When you give us information, we will use it in the ways for which you've given us permission. Generally, we use your information to help us provide and improve our products and services for you.

When do we share your information with others?

  • Your basic personal information (name and email address) will be shared with the Event provider for the explicit purpose of checking you in to the Event.
  • When we have asked and received your permission to share it.
  • For processing or providing products and services to you and handling financial transactions.
  • When the law requires it. We follow the law whenever we receive requests about you from a government or related to a lawsuit. We'll notify you when we're asked to hand over your personal information in this way unless we're legally prohibited from doing so. When we receive requests like this, we'll only release your personal information if we have a good faith belief that the law requires us to do so. Nothing in this policy is intended to limit any legal defenses or objections that you may have to a third party's request to disclose your information.
  • When we believe it is necessary to prevent harm to you or someone else. We will only share your information in this way if we have a good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to protect the rights, property or safety of you, our other users, StageHound, or the public.
  • If our organizational structure or status changes (if we undergo a restructuring, are acquired, or go bankrupt) we may pass your information to a successor or affiliate.

How do we store and protect your personal information?

We are committed to protecting your personal information once we have it and are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. In order to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, we have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

If, despite our efforts—and much to our dismay—we learn of a security breach, we'll notify you so that you can take appropriate protective steps.
