Comments, reviews, or public interactions with our Malta DJ Events Facebook Page may be visible to us and recorded in our CRM for the purpose of responding to your enquiry or feedback.

Meta Platforms, Inc. acts as a data processor when facilitating the transmission of your messages to our CRM. By using Facebook or Facebook Messenger to contact us, you are also subject to Meta’s own Privacy Policy, available at: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy/
