Last updated: April 2026
Overview
The Clooneys (“we”, “us”, “our”) is a professional wedding and events band based in Scotland. This policy explains what personal data we collect, how we use it, and your rights under UK data protection law.
Data We Collect
We collect information through:
- ●Enquiry form submissions — your name, email address, phone number, event date, event type and any message you include
- ●Direct communication via email or WhatsApp when you contact us
- ●Anonymised website analytics (see Analytics section below)
How We Use Your Data
Your information is used to:
- ●Respond to your enquiry about our services
- ●Communicate with you regarding event details and bookings
- ●Manage and fulfil confirmed bookings
- ●Monitor website performance and improve the user experience
Legal Basis for Processing
We process your personal data on the basis of contractual necessity when handling pre-booking communications and confirmed bookings, and on the basis of legitimate interests for client communication and website optimisation.
Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services which may process your data:
- ●Zoho Mail — email delivery for enquiry notifications sent from this website

Analytics
We use Umami for website analytics. Umami is a privacy-focused tool that collects anonymised usage data only — it does not use cookies and does not collect any personally identifiable information.
Data Security
We apply reasonable technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, but we take our obligations seriously and work to minimise risk.
Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary — to respond to your enquiry, manage a confirmed booking, meet any legal obligations, and resolve disputes if they arise. Enquiries that do not result in a booking are not retained indefinitely.

Under UK GDPR you have the right to:
- ●Access the personal data we hold about you
- ●Request correction of inaccurate data
- ●Request erasure of your data
- ●Restrict or object to processing
