Whirlwind Recordings Ltd – Privacy Policy

This customer privacy policy describes the collection and use of personal information on this website by Whirlwind Recordings Ltd. We recommend you take a moment to read the following to learn more about our information practices, including what type of information is gathered, how the information is used and for what purposes, and how we safeguard your personal information. By viewing and using our site, you agree to our Privacy Policy. If you disagree with any part of our Privacy Policy, please do not use our website.

Why we collect personal information
Whirlwind Recordings Ltd likes to stay in touch with our fans and supporters through the periodic sending of email-bulletins. Our ebulletins contain promotional news and updates on all our artists, album releases, and information on the solo career of WWR founder Michael Janisch. You may sign up to this emailing list on our homepage, and by doing so you will receive a link for a free MP3 from one of our releases.

The only time on the Whirlwind Recordings website where a person will be required to provide an email address is during the Checkout process should you place an order to purchase products on our site. This information is used to enable processing and subsequent fulfillment of your order (for example: your email address is where we will send MP3 downloads after completed purchase). The only information collected during our Checkout process will be a confirmed email address, and after you have opted to ‘Proceed to Payment’ on the WWR site, you will be directed to Pay Pal’s Payment Portal, where you either enter your credit card details (which Whirlwind Recordings does not have access to, nor do we keep on file) or log in to your personal Pay Pal account. Please refer to Pay Pal’s terms and conditions or Privacy Policy to learn more about how they use your data. Email addresses obtained by Whirlwind Recordings Ltd during the checkout process will be added to our email sendout list. Please note that at the bottom of all of our Ebulletins there is an option to ‘unsubscribe’ if you do not want us to keep in touch with our promotional material. Once unsubscribed, your email will be permanently removed from our database unless you contact us to reinstate its use. Although Whirlwind Recordings Ltd. uses Pay Pal for the safe and secure processing of all our payments, we are in no way associated with or endorse their company policies in any way whatsoever.

We will NEVER share or disclose your information:
Whirlwind Recordings Ltd takes your privacy very seriously. Be assured we will not sell or rent your contact information to other websites or marketers, and will never be disclosed to any other third-parties whatsoever.

How we protect your personal information:
Whirlwind Recordings Ltd takes our own precautions – including administrative, technical, and physical measures – to safeguard your personal information against loss, theft, and misuse, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. To make purchases from the Whirlwind Recordings Ltd store, you must use an SSL-enabled browser such as FireFox, Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator 3.0 or later. Doing so protects the confidentiality of your personal information while it’s transmitted over the Internet. For more information on how Pay Pal protects your information, please view their own Privacy Policy and Terms & Conditions on their website.
