Last Updated: 30/05/2025
 

Welcome to Bendor's Music (operated by Bendor Shick Triffon) ("we," "us," "our," or "North Tone"). We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. If you have any questions or concerns about this privacy notice, or our practices with regards to your personal information, please contact us at BendorMusic@gmail.com
 

This Privacy Policy applies to all information collected through our website  www.bendormusic.com, and/or any related services, sales, marketing, or events (we refer to them collectively in this privacy notice as the "Services").

Please read this privacy notice carefully as it will help you understand what we do with the information that we collect.
 

1. WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?

  • Personal information you disclose to us: We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us when you express an interest in obtaining information about us or our products and Services, when you participate in activities on the Services (such as posting messages in our online forums or entering competitions, contests or giveaways) or otherwise when you contact us. The personal information that we collect depends on the context of your interactions with us and the Services, the choices you make and the products and features you use. The personal information we collect may include the following:

    • Contact Information: Name, email address, phone number, postal address (for example, if you order physical products or for mobile recording services).

    • Account Information: If you create an account on our website (e.g., for purchasing music, video lessons, or booking services), we may collect usernames, passwords, and similar security information.

    • Payment Information: If you make purchases, we use third-party payment processors (e.g., PayPal, Wix Payments). We do not directly collect or store your full credit card or bank account details. Payment processors will collect payment information necessary to process your payment.

    • Booking Information: If you book lessons or studio time, we may collect information related to your booking preferences and schedule.

    • Communication Data: Information you provide when you communicate with us (e.g., via contact forms, email, or other channels).

    • Newsletter Subscription: If you subscribe to our newsletter, we will collect your email address and potentially your name for this purpose.

  • Information automatically collected: When you visit our website, some information – such as your Internet Protocol (IP) address and/or browser and device characteristics – is collected automatically. This information does not reveal your specific identity (like your name or contact information) but may include device and usage information, such as your IP address, browser and device characteristics, operating system, language preferences, referring URLs, device name, country, location, information about how and when you use our Services and other technical information. This information is primarily needed to maintain the security and operation of our Services, and for our internal analytics and reporting purposes. Like many businesses, we also collect information through cookies and similar technologies. (You can find out more about this in our Cookie Policy if you create one, or add a brief section here).
     

2. HOW DO WE USE YOUR INFORMATION?

We use personal information collected via our Services for a variety of business purposes described below. We process your personal information for these purposes in reliance on our legitimate business interests, in order to enter into or perform a contract with you, with your consent, and/or for compliance with our legal obligations. We use the information we collect or receive:

  • To provide and manage our Services: To fulfill and manage your orders, bookings, payments, and account creation.

  • To respond to your inquiries and offer support: To respond to your requests and solve any potential issues you might have with the use of our Services.

  • To send administrative information to you: For example, information regarding changes to our terms, conditions, and policies.

  • To send you marketing and promotional communications (with your consent): If you have opted into our newsletter or expressed interest, we may send you emails about our new products, services, and events. You can opt-out of our marketing emails at any time.

  • To protect our Services: As part of our efforts to keep our Services safe and secure (for example, for fraud monitoring and prevention).

  • For business analytics and improvement: To analyze data, identify usage trends, determine the effectiveness of our promotional campaigns and to evaluate and improve our Services, products, marketing and your experience.

  • As stated, we do not intend to use your details for any reason other than the purpose for which they were originally required and provided.
     

3. WILL YOUR INFORMATION BE SHARED WITH ANYONE?

We only share information with your consent, to comply with laws, to provide you with services, to protect your rights, or to fulfill business obligations. We may process or share your data that we hold based on the following legal basis:

  • Service Providers: We may share your data with third-party vendors, service providers, contractors or agents who perform services for us or on our behalf and require access to such information to do that work. Examples include: payment processing (e.g., PayPal, Wix Payments), data analysis (e.g., Google Analytics, Wix Analytics), email delivery (for newsletters), hosting services (Wix.com is our website platform provider). We make reasonable efforts to ensure these third parties respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law.

  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information where we are legally required to do so in order to comply with applicable law, governmental requests, a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process.

  • Business Transfers: We may share or transfer your information in connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of company assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business to another company.

  • We do not sell your personal information.
     

4. COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES

We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to access or store information. Specific information about how we use such technologies and how you can refuse certain cookies is typically set out in a Cookie Policy.
 

5. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?

We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy notice, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting or other legal requirements). When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
 

6. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?

We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security, and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information.
 

7. YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information. These may include the right to (i) request access and obtain a copy of your personal information, (ii) request rectification or erasure; (iii) to restrict the processing of your personal information; and (iv) if applicable, to data portability. In certain circumstances, you may also have the right to object to the processing of your personal information. To make such a request, please use the contact details provided below. We will consider and act upon any request in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
 

8. INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS

Your information may be transferred to — and maintained on — computers located outside of your state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ from those from your jurisdiction. As North Tone operates globally, this may include transferring data to service providers (like our website host Wix, which has servers in multiple locations) in other countries. We will take steps to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy.
 

9. POLICY FOR CHILDREN

Our Services are not directed to individuals under the age of 16 (or the applicable age in your jurisdiction, e.g., 13 in some areas). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If we become aware that a child under 16 has provided us with personal information, we will take steps to delete such information.
 

10. CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

We may update this privacy notice from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by an updated "Last Updated" date and the updated version will be effective as soon as it is accessible. If we make material changes to this privacy notice, we may notify you either by prominently posting a notice of such changes or by directly sending you a notification. We encourage you to review this privacy notice frequently to be informed of how we are protecting your information.
