This information is primarily needed to maintain the security and operation of our Services, and for our internal analytics and reporting purposes.
We collect anonymized information (artist, venue, price, dates, etc.) when you visit a website like Ticketmaster, Stubhub, SeatGeek, etc. No information is traced back to specific users and is only used to speed up results next time someone visits the same product or makes the same search.
