Privacy Policy
Involvement
The Musée d'art de Joliette (MAJ) is committed to the protection of privacy in the collection of personal information necessary for the operation and use of our website and social networks.
Collection of personal information
Here are some of the types of personal information we collect about you:
- name and language of correspondence;
- contact details, telephone number, physical address and e-mail address;
- payment information (including card number, expiry date and CVV code);
- ticket reservation, donation or other complementary service information;
- date of birth;
- cultural interests and preferences.
Personal information is collected via our various points of contact (call center, ticketing platform, website and social networks), notably when booking and purchasing an admission ticket, for a donation or the use of a complementary service, communicating with customer service, participating in a survey or interacting on our social media accounts.
Use and disclosure of your information
We use and disclose personal information in order to:
- make reservations or purchase tickets for events presented by the MAJ, by tenants or by event organizers who use our services;
- establish and confirm your identity;
- respond to inquiries and manage customer accounts;
- develop marketing, market analysis and survey strategies;
- target needs, interests and preferences and inform users of our complementary activities and services;
- control the quality of customer service and prevent fraud.
The MAJ offers ticketing services on behalf of various event organizers. These events may be held on our premises or elsewhere. It is therefore possible to transmit some of your personal information to event organizers when you purchase tickets, and organizers may contact you directly in connection with events or promotional offers.

Shelf life
Your personal information will be kept only for the time necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.
