What are the lawful bases for processing personal data?
Under Data Protection Legislation, there must be a ‘lawful basis’ for the use of personal data. The lawful bases are outlined in Article 6, Section 1 of the GDPR. They are sub-sections:

‘your consent’;

'performance of a contract';

'compliance with a legal obligation';

'protection of your, or another’s vital interests';

‘public interest/official authority’; and

'our legitimate interests'.

What are Pendulum’s ‘legitimate interests’?
Legitimate interests are a flexible basis upon which the law permits the processing of an individual’s personal data. To determine whether we have a legitimate interest in processing your data, we balance the needs and benefits to us against the risks and benefits for you of us processing your data. This balancing is performed as objectively as possible by our Data Protection Lead. You are able to object to our processing and we shall consider the extent to which this affects whether we have a legitimate interest. If you would like to find out more about our legitimate interests, please contact info@pendulum.com.

What happens if I refuse to give Pendulum my personal data?
If your personal data is used for selling you music, merchandise or tickets, your personal information has, in part, been collected as part of a statutory obligation arising under Companies Act 2006. Failure to process your data could result in us being unable to fulfil your orders.

If your personal data is used for observing your consumer rights, your personal information has been collected as part of a statutory obligation arising under Consumer Rights Act 2015. Failure to process your data could result in our inability to provide you with the remedies you are entitled to.

The information about you that we have collected for the performance of our contracts is required in order for us to successfully fulfil our obligations to you. If you choose not to provide the personal data requested, we will not be able to enter into a contract with you to provide the services we offer. If we are already processing your personal information under a contract, you must end our contractual relationship (as/where permitted) in order to exercise some of your rights. We process some personal information as part of a contractual relationship with a Data Controller.

What profiling or automated decision making does Pendulum perform?
Pendulum does not perform any profiling or automated decision making based on your personal data.


How long will your personal data be kept?
Pendulum holds different categories of personal data for different periods of time. Wherever possible, we will endeavour to minimise the amount of personal data that we hold and the length of time for which it is held.

If ‘consent’ is the basis for our lawful processing of your data, we will retain your data so long as both the purpose for which it was collected, and your consent, are still valid. For mailing lists and forums, we will consider your consent as valid so long as you continue to receive our emails or login to our website forums. If your email address ceases to receive our messages (e.g. ‘bounces-back’), we will consider this a withdrawal of consent. Occasionally, we might identify a legitimate interest in retaining some of your personal data that has been obtained by consent. If we do, we will inform you that we intend to retain it under these conditions and identify the interest specifically.

If we process your data on the basis of ‘legitimate interests’, we will retain your data for as long as the purpose for which it is processed remains active. We review the status of our legitimate interests every twelve (12) months and will update this notice whenever we determine that either a legitimate interest no longer exists or that a new one has been found.

All categories of personal data that are held by us because they are essential for the performance of a contract, will be held for a period of six years, as determined by reference to the Limitations Act 1980, for the purposes of exercising or defending legal claims.


Who can you complain to?
In addition to sending us your complaints directly to info@pendulum.com, you can send complaints to our supervisory authority. As Pendulum predominantly handles the personal data of UK nationals, our supervisory authority is the Information Commissioner’s Office. If you believe that we have failed in our compliance with data protection legislation, complaints to this authority can be made by visiting https://ico.org.uk/concerns/.
