Lost in TV is a company registered in England and Wales (No. 4801855). Our registered address is 82A James Carter Road, Mildenhall, Suffolk, IP28 7DE. You can contact us at info@lostintv.com or 020 8530 8100.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 16 years of age to register an account on this website. Users aged 16 or 17 must have the consent of a parent or guardian. By registering, you confirm that you meet these requirements. Ticket allocation for shows may be subject to additional age restrictions set by the broadcaster or production company.

3. Your Account

You are responsible for keeping your account details accurate and up to date. You must keep your password confidential and not share your account with anyone else. Lost in TV reserves the right to suspend or terminate accounts where we reasonably believe a breach of these terms has occurred.

4. Ticket Applications and Bookings

Applying for tickets does not guarantee attendance. Tickets are allocated at our discretion and are subject to availability. Applications are limited to one per household per show unless otherwise stated. Tickets are non-transferable and have no monetary value. Lost in TV reserves the right to cancel a booking at any time.

5. Attending Shows

As tickets are free, more tickets are issued than available seats to allow for non-attendance. Lost in TV therefore advises arriving in good time as entry is on a first come, first served basis and is not guaranteed. Entry is also subject to venue capacity and is at the discretion of the broadcaster or production company.

You agree to conduct yourself appropriately at all times. The broadcaster or production company retains the right of admission and may impose additional conditions of entry. Lost in TV is not responsible for any decisions made by venues, broadcasters, or production companies regarding admission.

6. Show Cancellations and Changes

Shows may be cancelled, postponed, or changed at short notice by the broadcaster or production company. Lost in TV will notify you of any changes we are made aware of, but accepts no liability for losses arising from cancellations or changes, including travel, accommodation, or other costs incurred.

Lost in TV Plus membership provides priority access to ticket allocations for the duration of your membership period. Membership does not auto-renew. You will receive a reminder when your membership is approaching expiry.

  • Within 30 days of purchase: you are entitled to a full refund, no questions asked.
  • After 30 days: you are entitled to a pro-rata refund based on the unused portion of your membership period.
  • Where Plus benefits have already been used, refunds may be adjusted at our discretion.

8. Limitation of Liability

Lost in TV's liability to you in connection with this website and our services is limited to the amount you have paid us, if anything. We are not liable for any indirect or consequential losses. Nothing in these terms limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

What Does This Notice Cover?

This Privacy Information explains how we use your personal data: how it is collected, how it is held, and how it is processed. It also explains your rights under the law relating to your personal data.

What Is Personal Data?

Personal data is defined by the General Data Protection Regulation (EU Regulation 2016/679) (the “GDPR”) and the Data Protection Act 2018 (collectively, “the Data Protection Legislation”) as ‘any information relating to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified in particular by reference to an identifier’.

Personal data is, in simpler terms, any information about you that enables you to be identified. Personal data covers obvious information such as your name and contact details, but it also covers less obvious information such as identification numbers, electronic location data, and other online identifiers.

The personal data that we use is set out below.

What Are My Rights?

Under the Data Protection Legislation, you have the following rights, which we will always work to uphold:

  • The right to be informed about our collection and use of your personal data. This Privacy Notice should tell you everything you need to know, but you can always contact us to find out more or to ask any questions using the details above.
  • The right to access the personal data we hold about you. The section headed 'How Can I Access My Personal Data?' will tell you how to do this.

  • The right to restrict (i.e. prevent) the processing of your personal data.
  • The right to object to us using your personal data for a particular purpose or purposes.
  • The right to withdraw consent. This means that, if we are relying on your consent as the legal basis for using your personal data, you are free to withdraw that consent at any time.
  • The right to data portability. This means that, if you have provided personal data to us directly, we are using it with your consent or for the performance of a contract, and that data is processed using automated means, you can ask us for a copy of that personal data to re-use with another service or business in many cases.
  • Rights relating to automated decision-making and profiling.

For more information about our use of your personal data or exercising your rights as outlined above, please contact us using the details provided below for our Data Protection Officer.

It is important that your personal data is kept accurate and up-to-date. If any of the personal data we hold about you changes, please keep us informed as long as we have that data.

Further information about your rights can also be obtained from the Information Commissioner’s Office or your local Citizens Advice Bureau.

If you have any cause for complaint about our use of your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office. We would welcome the opportunity to resolve your concerns ourselves, however, so please contact us first, using the details for our Data Protection Officer below.

All subject access requests should be made in writing and sent to the email or postal addresses shown below. There is not normally any charge for a subject access request. If your request is ‘manifestly unfounded or excessive’ (for example, if you make repetitive requests) a fee may be charged to cover Our administrative costs in responding.

We will respond to your subject access request within one month of receiving it. Normally, we aim to provide a complete response, including a copy of your personal data within that time.

Lost in TV
Data Retention Policy
September 2018

Introduction

This Policy sets out the obligations of Lost in TV, a company registered in England and Wales under number 04801855, whose registered office is at 82A James Carter Road, Mildenhall, Suffolk, IP28 7DE (“the Company”) regarding retention of personal data collected, held, and processed by the Company in accordance with EU Regulation 2016/679 General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”).

The GDPR defines “personal data” as any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (a “data subject”). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of that natural person.

The GDPR also addresses “special category” personal data (also known as “sensitive” personal data). Such data includes, but is not necessarily limited to, data concerning the data subject’s race, ethnicity, politics, religion, trade union membership, genetics, biometrics (if used for ID purposes), health, sex life, or sexual orientation.

Under the GDPR, personal data shall be kept in a form which permits the identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data is processed. In certain cases, personal data may be stored for longer periods where that data is to be processed for archiving purposes that are in the public interest, for scientific or historical research, or for statistical purposes (subject to the implementation of the appropriate technical and organisational measures required by the GDPR to protect that data).

In addition, the GDPR includes the right to erasure or “the right to be forgotten”. Data subjects have the right to have their personal data erased (and to prevent the processing of that personal data) in the following circumstances:

  • Where the personal data is no longer required for the purpose for which it was originally collected or processed (see above);
  • When the data subject withdraws their consent;
  • When the data subject objects to the processing of their personal data and the Company has no overriding legitimate interest;
  • When the personal data is processed unlawfully (i.e. in breach of the GDPR);
  • When the personal data has to be erased to comply with a legal obligation; or
  • Where the personal data is processed for the provision of information society services to a child.

This Policy sets out the type(s) of personal data held by the Company, the period(s) for which that personal data is to be retained, the criteria for establishing and reviewing such period(s), and when and how it is to be deleted or otherwise disposed of.

For further information on other aspects of data protection and compliance with the GDPR, please refer to the Company’s Data Protection Policy.

Aims and Objectives

The primary aim of this Policy is to set out limits for the retention of personal data and to ensure that those limits, as well as further data subject rights to erasure, are complied with. By extension, this Policy aims to ensure that the Company complies fully with its obligations and the rights of data subjects under the GDPR.

In addition to safeguarding the rights of data subjects under the GDPR, by ensuring that excessive amounts of data are not retained by the Company, this Policy also aims to improve the speed and efficiency of managing data.

Scope

This Policy applies to all personal data held by the Company and by third-party data processors processing personal data on the Company’s behalf.

Personal data, as held by the Company is stored in the following ways and in the following locations:

  • The Company’s servers located in Germany;
  • Third-party servers in various locations within the UK and Europe;
  • Computers permanently located in the Company’s premises at our Mildenhall office;
  • Laptop computers and other mobile devices provided by the Company to its employees;
  • Physical records stored in Mildenhall, UK

Data Subject Rights and Data Integrity

All personal data held by the Company is held in accordance with the requirements of the GDPR and data subjects’ rights thereunder, as set out in the Company’s Data Protection Policy.

Data subjects are kept fully informed of their rights, of what personal data the Company holds about them, how that personal data is used, and how long the Company will hold that personal data (or, if no fixed retention period can be determined, the criteria by which the retention of the data will be determined).

Data subjects are given control over their personal data held by the Company including the right to have incorrect data rectified, the right to request that their personal data be deleted or otherwise disposed of (notwithstanding the retention periods otherwise set by this Data Retention Policy), the right to restrict the Company’s use of their personal data, the right to data portability, and further rights relating to automated decision-making and profiling.
