Any data you provide about yourself, and any information which identifies you, such as your name, email address, telephone number, will only be retained by us if you tell us that we can do so. Of course, you might choose not to, however this means that we may not be able to provide you with the full details of demonstrations in your area.

In the event of a personal sitting we collect your personal home address in a private sitting just for the disclaimer purposes. Your address is never linked in anyway with the internet and is disposed of safely by shredding after a period of time. If you have agreed by ticking the yes to a mailshot we then add your name and email address only not your home address.

All data from demonstrations on the raffle stubs collected on the evening are for “When’s Bernie Back” only.  It explained on the evening of the demonstration why we collect and you are given an option just before the draw to retrieve your email address before we leave.
