PRIVACY STATEMENT

LNK-Records
Last updated: 3 September 2026

1. Introduction

LNK-Records respects the privacy of visitors, artists, collaborators, clients, business contacts and other individuals who interact with LNK-Records.

This Privacy Statement explains how personal data may be collected, processed, used, stored and protected when you visit or interact with the LNK-Records website or communicate with LNK-Records.

LNK-Records processes personal data in accordance with applicable data-protection legislation, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable Dutch legislation.

The GDPR requires organisations to process personal data lawfully, fairly and transparently, and to collect only data that is necessary for specified purposes.

2. Data controller

For the purposes of applicable data-protection legislation, the organisation responsible for the processing of personal data is:

LNK-Records

Contact details for privacy-related questions and requests are provided through the official LNK-Records contact information published on the website.

Where LNK-Records appoints a Data Protection Officer or other specific privacy contact, the relevant contact details will be published here.

3. What personal data may be processed

Depending on how you interact with LNK-Records, the following categories of personal data may be processed:

• name and surname;

• email address;

• telephone number, where voluntarily provided;

• postal or business address, where necessary;

• information contained in communications sent to LNK-Records;

• information supplied through forms or other direct contact;

• information relating to artists, collaborators or business relationships;

• technical information relating to website use;

• IP address;

• browser and device information;

• date and time of website access;

• referring website or page, where technically available;

• cookie and similar technology information;

• information necessary to maintain website security and functionality.

LNK-Records does not intentionally request unnecessary personal information.

Personal data means information relating to an identified or identifiable living individual. An IP address and cookie identifier may also constitute personal data under the GDPR depending on the circumstances.

4. How personal data is collected

Personal data may be collected:

• directly from you when you contact LNK-Records;

• when you submit information through a website form;

• when you communicate by email or another communication method;

• automatically through the operation of the website;

• through cookies or similar technologies where applicable;

• through service providers operating technical components of the website;

• where necessary from publicly available sources or legitimate third-party sources.

Where personal data is obtained from another source rather than directly from the individual, applicable GDPR information requirements concerning the source of that data will apply.

5. Purposes of processing

LNK-Records may process personal data for the following purposes:

Website operation

To operate, maintain, secure and improve the LNK-Records website.

Communication

To respond to questions, enquiries, requests, submissions and other communications.

Artist and business relationships

To communicate with artists, producers, collaborators, partners, suppliers and other business contacts where necessary.

Administration

To maintain records relating to communications, agreements, submissions, rights and business administration where necessary.

Security

To protect the website, systems, content and users against abuse, unauthorised access, malicious activity and technical threats.

Legal compliance

To comply with applicable legal obligations and to establish, exercise or defend legal claims where necessary.

Website analysis

Where applicable and lawfully configured, technical or analytical information may be processed to understand website performance, visitor behaviour and technical problems.

LNK-Records will not use personal data for purposes that are incompatible with the purpose for which it was originally collected without an appropriate legal basis.

6. Legal bases for processing

Depending on the circumstances, LNK-Records may rely on one or more of the following legal bases under the GDPR:

• Consent — where you have given valid consent for a specific processing activity.

• Contract — where processing is necessary to enter into or perform a contract or agreement.

• Legal obligation — where processing is required by applicable law.

• Legitimate interests — where processing is necessary for a legitimate interest of LNK-Records or a third party and those interests are not overridden by the individual's rights and freedoms.

Where processing is based on consent, consent may be withdrawn at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.

7. Cookies and similar technologies

The LNK-Records website may use cookies or similar technologies.

Cookies may be used for purposes including:

• essential website functionality;

• security;

• remembering technical preferences;

• performance and website operation;

• analytics, where applicable;

• other purposes where legally permitted.

Not every cookie necessarily identifies an individual directly. However, cookie identifiers may constitute personal data where they can be associated with an identifiable individual.

Where consent is legally required for non-essential cookies or similar technologies, LNK-Records will request consent before placing or using those technologies.

Where technically necessary cookies are used, they may be processed without consent where permitted by applicable law.

8. Third-party service providers

The LNK-Records website may depend on third-party providers for website hosting, website infrastructure, communication, analytics, security, media delivery, embedded content and other technical services.

These providers may process certain information on behalf of LNK-Records or independently according to their own legal responsibilities.

Where a third party acts as a processor for LNK-Records, appropriate contractual and data-protection arrangements will be used where required.

Where third-party services act as independent controllers, their own privacy policies and terms may also apply.

9. Website platform and technical infrastructure

LNK-Records uses third-party digital infrastructure to operate and maintain its website.

Technical information may therefore be processed by the relevant hosting, website-building or infrastructure provider as necessary to provide the website and its functions.

Because the technical operation of a modern website may involve multiple service providers, data may be processed automatically as part of ordinary website operation, security and technical delivery.

LNK-Records does not intentionally collect personal data merely for the purpose of collecting it.

10. AI and automated technologies

LNK-Records uses modern software and online services that may contain artificial intelligence or machine-learning functionality.

AI-enabled software may be involved in areas such as editing, language assistance, content preparation, image processing, audio processing, administration, website management or other technical workflows.

The presence of AI functionality does not by itself mean that personal data is intentionally submitted to an AI system.

Where personal data is processed by an AI-enabled service, LNK-Records will take reasonable steps to ensure that the processing has an appropriate legal basis and is carried out in accordance with applicable data-protection requirements.

LNK-Records does not use personal data for training an AI model merely because that data has been submitted to or processed through the LNK-Records website.

Where a specific third-party AI service is used to process personal data, its applicable privacy terms and contractual arrangements may also apply.

11. Personal data contained in communications

If you contact LNK-Records, the information contained in your communication may be retained as reasonably necessary to:

• respond to your request;

• maintain a record of the communication;

• manage an ongoing relationship;

• establish, exercise or defend legal rights;

• comply with legal obligations; or

• protect LNK-Records against abuse or fraudulent activity.

LNK-Records does not intentionally retain personal information indefinitely.

12. Data sharing

LNK-Records does not sell personal data.

Personal data may be disclosed where necessary to:

• technical service providers;

• hosting or website providers;

• professional advisers;

• payment or administrative providers where applicable;

• legal or regulatory authorities where legally required;

• other parties where disclosure is necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims;

• third parties where you have requested or authorised the disclosure.

Only information reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose should be disclosed.

13. International data transfers

Some third-party technology and service providers may operate internationally.

Where personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area, LNK-Records will rely on an appropriate legal mechanism where required by applicable law, such as an adequacy decision or appropriate safeguards.

Where relevant, information concerning international transfers and applicable safeguards may be obtained by contacting LNK-Records.

14. Data retention

LNK-Records retains personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

Retention periods may depend on:

• the nature of the information;

• the purpose for which it was collected;

• whether an ongoing relationship exists;

• legal or accounting obligations;

• the need to establish, exercise or defend legal claims;

• security requirements.

When personal data is no longer required, it will be deleted, anonymised or otherwise securely disposed of where reasonably practicable.

15. Data security

LNK-Records takes reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, unlawful processing, accidental loss, destruction or damage.

Security measures may include access controls, secure systems, authentication mechanisms, software updates, backups, monitoring and other appropriate technical or organisational safeguards.

No internet-based system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. LNK-Records therefore cannot guarantee absolute security of information transmitted over the internet.

16. Your GDPR rights

Subject to the conditions and limitations established by applicable law, individuals have rights including:

• the right to be informed about the processing of their personal data;

• the right of access;

• the right to rectification of inaccurate or incomplete data;

• the right to erasure;

• the right to restriction of processing;

• the right to data portability;

• the right to object to certain processing;

• the right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;

• rights relating to certain forms of automated decision-making and profiling.

These rights are established under the GDPR and apply throughout the European Union.

17. How to exercise your rights

To exercise a privacy right, contact LNK-Records using the contact information published on the website.

Your request should contain sufficient information to understand what you are requesting.

For security purposes, LNK-Records may need to verify your identity before releasing, correcting or deleting personal data.

LNK-Records will respond to valid requests without undue delay and generally within one month, subject to the conditions and extensions permitted by applicable law.

18. Right to lodge a complaint

If you believe that your personal data has not been processed in accordance with applicable data-protection law, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent data-protection supervisory authority.

For LNK-Records operating in the Netherlands, the relevant supervisory authority is the Dutch Data Protection Authority (Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens).

This right does not prevent you from first contacting LNK-Records directly.

19. Children and minors

The LNK-Records website is not specifically directed at children.

LNK-Records does not intentionally request unnecessary personal information from children.

Where applicable law requires parental or guardian consent for a particular processing activity, LNK-Records will apply the relevant legal requirements.

20. Publicly available information and published content

Information intentionally published by LNK-Records, including artist names, professional biographies, photographs, recordings, credits and other publicity material, may be publicly accessible.

The fact that information is publicly available does not mean that all personal-data protections automatically cease to apply.

LNK-Records will handle personal data contained in published material in accordance with applicable law and the purpose for which the information is published.

21. Links to external websites and platforms

The LNK-Records website may contain links to external websites, streaming platforms, social-media platforms, artist pages or other third-party services.

Once you leave the LNK-Records website, the privacy practices of the external service may apply.

LNK-Records is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of independent third-party websites.

Users should review the applicable privacy information of external services before providing personal information to them.

22. Changes to this Privacy Statement

LNK-Records may update this Privacy Statement when necessary to reflect:

• changes in legislation;

• changes to the website;

• changes to service providers;

• changes in technology;

• changes in data-processing activities; or

• improvements to transparency.

The date at the top of this statement indicates when it was last updated.
