This information is collected to help manage the website, to audit the geographical make-up of users and to establish user behavior on the website.

From time to time we carry out data hygiene procedures to ensure that our data is correct and accurate. This includes merging records where, for example, they share a customer name and address.

If you follow a link to any of these websites, please note that they have their own privacy policies and we do not accept any responsibility or liability for these. Please check these policies before you submit any personal information to these websites.

How do we use it?

Your information is used to create your account, facilitate your visit, and help us to better understand our audience and their needs, so that we can continue to improve.

Select information is shared with the producers of the shows for which you have booked. This is for audience analysis purposes only, unless you have specifically chosen to receive marketing communications from the producer.

If you have not chosen to receive information from Nederlander Theatres, we will not contact you beyond facilitating your visit.

If you have chosen to receive email marketing communications from Nederlander Theatres, we will contact you by email to let you know about shows, products and services that we think you may be interested in.

When you create an account or purchase tickets, you may also be asked if you wish to receive information from other carefully selected third party arts organisations, including the producers of the show you are booking for. If you do not wish to receive marketing information from third party organisations, please ensure that you do not tick these options.

You can change your contact preferences at any time by amending your account here.

More details

To facilitate visits and carry out contracts with customers, we:

  • Fulfil ticket and merchandise requests, and confirming such orders.
  • Process payments. (Please note, we do not hold payment information for any longer than it takes to process your transaction.)
  • Ensure that all hospitality orders are met.
  • Inform our Front of House team of any audience members’ access requirements ahead of a performance.
  • Contact you with important information and updates regarding your booking, e.g. reminding you of an upcoming performance by email.

In order to get a better understanding of our audiences’ needs, we analyse general booking behaviour and customer demographic information. This analysis is usually conducted on anonymised data.

Where we have justifiable reason, we classify our audience in certain segments or lists. One such reason is ensuring that we are sending relevant marketing communications to you (where consent has been given). For this, we may segment customers according to which shows they have booked for previously, and how frequently they have engaged with earlier marketing emails.

Nederlander Theatres currently operates three theatres in London: Aldwych Theatre, Dominion Theatre and Adelphi Theatre (owned in conjunction with LW Theatres). By opting in for communications from Nederlander Theatres, you agree to receive emails regarding shows, events, products and services at or available from all three theatres and the Nederlander Group, including shows produced or co-produced by the Nederlander Organization and/or its affiliates. Our group booking department may also contact certain customers about group discounts for shows across the West End.

We may share your personal information with any member of our group, which means our subsidiaries, affiliates and ultimate holding company, as defined in section 1159 of the UK Companies Act 2006. From time to time, our group companies may contact you by post or by e-mail with information or offers regarding upcoming events, products, services or customer services at Nederlander Theatres in the UK and the USA.

We may share anonymised data with producers and partner organisations. This will be limited to the customers for the associated shows, in order to give the producers and partners a general picture of their show’s audience.

How do we protect your information?

Nederlander Theatres do not share, sell, rent or trade your personal information to any third parties for any purpose without your prior consent. We have put in place reasonable safeguards to protect your data.
