Privacy Policy
This policy explains what data Best Club Hits collects, why, and what you can do about it. It applies to this website only.
Who is responsible
This site is operated as an independent publication. For any question about your data, or to exercise any of the rights described below, write to [email protected].
What we collect
When you use the contact form, we store the name, e-mail address, subject and message you submit, along with your IP address and browser user agent. We use this only to read and reply to your message and to defend against automated abuse.
When you browse, our server records standard technical information such as the pages requested, timestamps, IP address and user agent. This is used for security and to understand which guides are read.
We do not ask for or store payment information, and we do not sell personal data.
Cookies
This site sets a small number of cookies that are necessary for it to work — for example, a session cookie and a security token that protects forms against cross-site request forgery. These cannot be disabled without breaking the site.
Additional cookies may be set by the advertising and analytics providers described below.

Legal basis and your rights
Depending on where you live, you have rights over your personal data — including under the Brazilian General Data Protection Law (LGPD, Law No. 13.709/2018) and the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
These include the right to:
- confirm whether we process data about you, and access it;
- correct incomplete, inaccurate or out-of-date data;
- request anonymisation, blocking or deletion of unnecessary or excessive data;
- request portability of your data;
- withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;
- object to processing, and to be informed about data sharing.
To exercise any of these, write to [email protected]. We will respond within the period required by the applicable law.
How long we keep things
Contact form submissions are kept while they are useful for handling your request and for a reasonable period afterwards for record-keeping, then deleted. Server logs are retained for a short period for security purposes.
Children
This site is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their personal data.

Guides on this site link to official festival, venue and artist websites. Those sites have their own privacy policies and we are not responsible for their content or their data practices.
