Kingmalot.com (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the website kingmalot.com (the “Site”), which provides information, ticketing, and related services for beer festivals and renaissance festivals. We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal information responsibly. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our Site or interact with our services.
By accessing or using the Site, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information from you in the following ways:
a. Personal Information You Provide Directly
– **Contact Information**: When you sign up for newsletters, purchase tickets, register for events, or contact us, we may collect your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, and other details you voluntarily provide.
– **Payment Information**: If you make purchases (e.g., tickets or merchandise), we collect billing details such as credit card numbers, expiration dates, and security codes. This information is processed securely through third-party payment processors and is not stored on our servers.
– **Other User-Provided Data**: Any additional information you submit through forms, surveys, or communications, such as preferences for festival events or feedback.
b. Automatically Collected Information
– **Device and Usage Data**: We collect information about your device and how you interact with the Site, including IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, pages viewed, time spent on pages, and clickstream data.
– **Location Data**: Through reverse IP lookups, we may infer approximate geographic location based on your IP address to customize content, such as recommending nearby festivals or tailoring event promotions.
– **Cookies and Tracking Technologies**: We use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to enhance your experience, analyze usage, and serve personalized ads. These may track your preferences and behavior across sessions. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings.
We do not collect sensitive personal information (e.g., racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, or health data) unless you voluntarily provide it and it is necessary for our services.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information for the following purposes:
– To provide and improve our services, such as processing ticket purchases, sending event updates, and responding to inquiries.
– To personalize your experience, including recommending festivals based on your location derived from reverse IP lookups.
– To communicate with you, including sending promotional emails about upcoming beer or renaissance festivals, newsletters, or special offers (you can opt out at any time).
– To analyze Site usage and trends to enhance functionality and user experience.
– To prevent fraud, enforce our terms, and protect the security of the Site.
– To comply with legal obligations, such as responding to subpoenas or government requests.
2.1 Analytics and Advertising
We use third-party analytics services (e.g., Google Analytics) to understand Site traffic and user behavior. These services may collect data like IP addresses and browsing patterns. We also use advertising tools to promote festivals, which may involve cookies for retargeting.
– You can opt out of Google Analytics via their browser add-on: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
– For interest-based ads, visit the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) opt-out page: https://optout.networkadvertising.org.
3. Sharing Your Information
We do not sell your personal information to third parties. However, we may share it in the following circumstances:
– **Service Providers**: With vendors who assist us in operating the Site, such as payment processors, email service providers, analytics tools, and hosting services. These parties are contractually obligated to protect your data and use it only for the services they provide to us.
– **Event Partners**: With sponsors or co-organizers of festivals to facilitate event logistics, such as sharing attendee lists for check-in purposes.
– **Legal Requirements**: If required by law, such as in response to a court order, or to protect our rights, property, or safety.
– **Business Transfers**: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred to the new entity.
4. Data Security
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. For example, we use encryption for sensitive data transmission and secure servers for storage. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
In the event of a data breach that compromises your personal information, we will notify affected users and relevant authorities as required by law (e.g., within 30 days under Florida law).
4.1 Data Retention
We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, including for the duration of your relationship with us (e.g., until an event concludes or you unsubscribe). For example:
– Contact information for ticketing is retained for up to 2 years post-event for accounting and dispute resolution.
– Usage data (e.g., from reverse IP lookups) is retained for 1 year for analytics purposes.
– We may retain data longer if required by law (e.g., tax records) or to defend against legal claims.
After this period, data is securely deleted or anonymized.
5. Your Rights and Choices
– **Access and Update**: You may request access to or correction of your personal information by contacting us.
– **Opt-Out**: You can unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” link in emails or contacting us.
– **Cookies**: Most browsers allow you to refuse cookies or alert you when they are being sent.
– **Do Not Track**: We do not currently respond to “Do Not Track” signals from browsers.
– **Deletion**: You may request deletion of your data, subject to legal retention requirements.
If you are a resident of certain jurisdictions (e.g., under GDPR or CCPA), you may have additional rights, such as data portability or objection to processing. Please contact us for more information.
5.1 Consent
By providing your information, you consent to its collection and use as described. For certain processing (e.g., marketing emails or location-based personalization via reverse IP), we rely on your consent, which you can withdraw at any time by contacting us or using opt-out links. Withdrawal does not affect prior lawful processing.

Our events and services are intended for individuals 21 years of age or older where alcohol is involved. During ticketing or registration, we may collect age verification information (e.g., date of birth) to ensure compliance with applicable laws. We do not knowingly collect or process personal information from individuals under 21 for alcohol-related features. If you believe we have such data, contact us for deletion.

The Site may contain links to third-party websites (e.g., sponsor sites or social media). We are not responsible for their privacy practices. We encourage you to review their policies.
8. International Data Transfers
If you are accessing the Site from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to and processed in the U.S., where data protection laws may differ from your jurisdiction. By using the Site, you consent to this transfer.
