This page describes what the document states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability may vary by jurisdiction. Methodology
This document establishes Eventbrite's practices for collecting, using, and sharing personal data from users who browse events, purchase tickets, or organize events on the platform. The policy authorizes Eventbrite to collect name, email, payment information, location data, and browsing behavior, and requires that personal data provided during event registration—including name, email, and ticket details—be shared with event organizers, whose data handling is governed by their own privacy policies. Users may submit requests through Eventbrite's privacy portal to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal data for targeted advertising purposes.
This document is Eventbrite's Privacy Policy (last updated January 13, 2026), governing the collection, use, disclosure, and retention of personal data across Eventbrite's platform, including its event discovery, ticketing, and organizer tools, with the stated legal bases varying by jurisdiction (consent, legitimate interests, and contractual necessity under GDPR frameworks; and compliance with CCPA/CPRA for California residents). The policy states that Eventbrite collects a broad range of personal data including names, contact information, payment data, location data, device identifiers, browsing behavior, and event attendance history, and the terms authorize sharing this data with event organizers, advertising partners, analytics providers, and other third parties for purposes including targeted advertising and cross-context behavioral advertising. The policy's authorization of sharing attendee personal data directly with event organizers is operationally significant because it means individual organizers, who are independent third parties with their own privacy practices, receive attendee data that is then governed by those organizers' own policies rather than Eventbrite's, creating a data exposure path that may not be fully apparent to attendees at the point of ticket purchase. The policy engages GDPR and UK GDPR for EU and UK residents, CCPA/CPRA for California residents, and references additional state privacy laws (Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, and others); it includes a dedicated section on individual rights including access, deletion, correction, portability, and opt-out of sale or sharing of personal data for targeted advertising. Material compliance considerations include the adequacy of consent mechanisms for behavioral advertising, the lawfulness of international data transfers (including Standard Contractual Clauses), and the delineation of controller and processor roles between Eventbrite and event organizers.

This new provision explicitly enumerates the broad scope of personal data collection (including payment information and automated tracking), which expands transparency about data practices beyond what was previously disclosed.
Removal of this provision eliminates explicit disclosure about AI/ML use cases, making it unclear whether the policy still permits these practices or simply chose not to highlight them.
Removal of specific cookie/tracking technology provisions reduces transparency, though cookie practices may now be covered implicitly under 'Broad Personal Data Collection Scope' and third-party integrations.
Elimination of this standalone provision reduces specificity about which third-party vendors process data, though some coverage may exist under behavioral advertising opt-out language.
