We value your trust and only share your data where necessary to deliver our Services.
Your personal data may be shared with the following categories of recipients:

4.1 Partner Venues and Experience Providers

As a Modernists member, you acknowledge and agree that we share relevant personal information (such as your name, membership tier, and booking details) with partner venues, private clubs, event organisers, and hospitality providers featured on our platform.

This is required to:
