Ticketmaster shares your personal information with Commercial Partners — third-party companies providing travel packages, sponsorships, or exclusive presales — sometimes with your permission and sometimes as necessary to deliver contracted services.
This analysis describes what Ticketmaster's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology
The clause establishes a conditional authorization structure: data sharing required for contract performance occurs without separate permission, while discretionary sharing with commercial partners requires affirmative user consent. This distinction allocates responsibility for permission-seeking based on whether the sharing is contractually necessary.
Your personal data may be passed to third-party sponsors and travel companies associated with events you attend, potentially without separate consent if Ticketmaster deems the sharing necessary to deliver its services.

"We sometimes work with Commercial Partners who we share information with. These are third party data controllers that we work with to provide additional value-add services, such as our travel packages, sponsors or exclusive presale. In some circumstances, where sharing is not necessary for us to perform the contract you have requested, we will ask for your permission.— Excerpt from Ticketmaster's Ticketmaster Privacy Policy
The policy's conditional consent language for Commercial Partner sharing — 'where sharing is not necessary for us to perform the contract, we will ask for your permission' — creates ambiguity about when consent is required versus assumed, a potential GDPR compliance risk that warrants legal review of the underlying data processing agreements.
