The Flannels (“The Flannels,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, retain, and protect personal information when you visit theflannelsband.com (the “Website”), contact us, subscribe to updates, enter a promotion, purchase merchandise, book the band, or otherwise interact with us.
Our Commitment: We Do Not Sell Personal Information
The Flannels does not sell personal information to third parties and has not sold personal information during the preceding 12 months.
We also do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising as “sharing” is defined by the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CCPA”).
We may provide limited personal information to service providers that help us operate the Website, respond to inquiries, communicate with fans, process transactions, prevent fraud, and provide other necessary services. These operational disclosures are not sales of personal information.
Notice at Collection
Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect:
- Identifiers and contact information, such as your name, email address, telephone number, mailing address, IP address, and online identifiers.
- Internet or electronic activity, such as pages viewed, links clicked, referring pages, browser type, device type, approximate location, and Website interactions.
- Commercial information, such as merchandise purchases, ticket-related activity, virtual tips, or other transactions.
- Communications, such as booking requests, contact-form messages, comments, contest entries, and other correspondence.
- Photographs, videos, or social-media content you voluntarily submit to us or authorize us to use.
- Approximate geolocation inferred from your IP address.
We use this information to operate and secure the Website, communicate with fans and potential clients, process requests and transactions, promote performances, analyze Website use, comply with legal obligations, and improve our services.
We do not sell or share these categories of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, subject to legal, accounting, security, and dispute-resolution requirements.

You can control many cookies through your browser settings. Blocking certain cookies may cause parts of the Website to function incorrectly.

We may also disclose information when you direct or authorize us to do so.
CCPA Disclosures for the Preceding 12 Months
During the preceding 12 months, we may have collected the following CCPA categories:
- Identifiers.
- Personal information described in California Civil Code §1798.80.
- Commercial information.
- Internet or other electronic network activity.
- Approximate geolocation information.
- Audio, electronic, visual, or similar information.
- Inferences based on Website activity, if analytics tools generate such information.
Sources may include you, your device or browser, Website cookies and technologies, social-media services, ticketing or merchandise services, transaction providers, and people who communicate with us.
We collect these categories for the operational, communication, security, analytical, transactional, promotional, and legal purposes described above.
During the preceding 12 months:
- We have not sold personal information.
- We have not shared personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
- We may have disclosed identifiers, Internet activity, transaction information, communications, and related information to service providers for business purposes.
We do not knowingly collect or use sensitive personal information for purposes that would require providing a right to limit its use under the CCPA.
Your Privacy Rights
Subject to applicable law and certain exceptions, California residents may have the right to:
- Know the categories and specific pieces of personal information we collected about them.
- Know the sources, purposes, and categories of recipients associated with that information.
- Request deletion of personal information.
- Request correction of inaccurate personal information.
- Opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information.
- Limit certain uses or disclosures of sensitive personal information.
- Receive a portable copy of certain personal information.
- Receive equal treatment and not be discriminated against for exercising privacy rights.
Because we do not sell or share personal information as defined by the CCPA, there is presently no sale or sharing from which you need to opt out.
We do not offer financial incentives or price differences in exchange for personal information.
Residents of other jurisdictions may have similar rights under their applicable laws.
How to Exercise Your Rights
You may submit a privacy request through either of the following methods:
Email: flannelsoc@gmail.com- Online contact form: https://theflannelsband.com/contact/
If The Flannels becomes subject to a legal requirement to provide an additional request method, such as a toll-free telephone number, that method will be added here.
Please identify the type of request you are making and provide enough information for us to locate the relevant records. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. Verification information will be used only to process and document the request.
An authorized agent may submit a request on your behalf. We may request evidence of the agent’s authority and may ask you to verify your identity directly where permitted by law.
We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law. California requests are generally answered within 45 days, although an extension may be permitted when reasonably necessary.
Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track
Where required by applicable law, we recognize browser-based opt-out preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control, as a request to opt out of sale or sharing.
Because we do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, receiving such a signal may not require a change to our current practices.
Some browsers also provide a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is no universally accepted standard for interpreting legacy Do Not Track signals, the Website may not respond to them.
Third-party services or embedded content may collect information about your activities over time and across different websites according to their own privacy policies and settings.
Third-Party Websites and Embedded Content
The Website may contain links to or embedded content from social networks, video services, ticketing sites, payment providers, merchandise providers, venues, and other third parties.
These third parties operate independently and may collect information when you interact with their services. Their collection and use of information are governed by their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review those policies before providing personal information.
Email Communications
If you subscribe to promotional email messages, you may unsubscribe by using the link included in the email or by contacting us. We may still send non-promotional messages needed to respond to your request, complete a transaction, protect the Website, or comply with law.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including:
- Responding to and documenting communications.
- Completing transactions.
- Maintaining security and preventing fraud.
- Satisfying tax, accounting, contractual, and legal obligations.
- Establishing, exercising, or defending legal claims.
Retention periods vary depending on the type of information, its sensitivity, the purpose of processing, and applicable legal requirements. When information is no longer reasonably necessary, we will delete, anonymize, or securely dispose of it where practical.
Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information. However, no website, storage system, or Internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Please do not send sensitive information, passwords, government identification numbers, or payment-card details through ordinary contact forms or email.
Children’s Privacy
The Website is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13 without legally required parental consent.
If you believe a child under 13 provided personal information to us, please contact us so that we can review and, where appropriate, delete it.
California “Shine the Light” Disclosure
California residents may request information concerning certain disclosures of personal information to third parties for their own direct-marketing purposes.
The Flannels does not disclose personal information to third parties for those third parties’ own direct-marketing purposes. Questions may be submitted using the contact methods listed above.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our Website, services, privacy practices, or legal obligations. The revised policy will be posted on this page with an updated “Last updated” date.
If a change materially affects how we use previously collected personal information, we will provide additional notice or obtain consent when required by law.
We will review this policy periodically and, if subject to the CCPA’s annual disclosure requirements, update the required disclosures at least once every 12 months.
