2. What Does This Policy Cover?
This Privacy Policy applies only to your use of Our Site. Our Site may contain links to other websites. Please note that we have no control over how your data is collected, stored, or used by other websites that we do not own, or control and we advise you to check the privacy policies of any such websites before providing any data to them.

3. What Is Personal Data?
Personal data is defined by the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 (collectively, “the Data Protection Legislation”) as "any information relating to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified in particular by reference to an identifier".
Personal data is, in simpler terms, any information about you that enables you to be identified. Personal data covers obvious information such as your name and contact details, but it also covers less obvious information such as identification numbers, electronic location data, and other online identifiers.
4. What Are My Rights?
Under the Data Protection Legislation, you have the following rights, which we will always work to uphold:
a) The right to be informed about our collection and use of your personal data. This Privacy Policy should tell you everything you need to know, but you can always contact us to find out more or to ask any questions using the details in Part 12. Alternatively, please use the floating ‘Legal Policies’ link on Our Site.
b) The right to access the personal data we hold about you. Part 11 will tell you how to do this. Alternatively, please use the floating ‘Legal Policies’ link on Our Site to request data access.
c) The right to have your personal data rectified if any of your personal data held by us is inaccurate or incomplete. Please use the floating ‘Legal Policies’ link on Our Site to request data rectification, or contact us using the details in Part 12 to find out more.
d) The right to be forgotten, i.e. the right to ask us to delete or otherwise dispose of any of your personal data that we hold. Please use the floating ‘Legal Policies’ link on Our Site to request data deletion, or contact us using the details in Part 12 to find out more.
e) The right to restrict (i.e. prevent) the processing of your personal data.
f) The right to object to us using your personal data for a particular purpose or purposes.
g) The right to withdraw consent. This means that, if we are relying on your consent as the legal basis for using your personal data, you are free to withdraw that consent at any time.
h) The right to data portability. This means that, if you have provided personal data to us directly, we are using it with your consent or for the performance of a contract, and that data is processed using automated means, you can ask us for a copy of that personal data to re-use with another service or business in many cases.
i) Rights relating to automated decision-making and profiling.
For more information about our use of your personal data or exercising your rights as outlined above, please contact us using the details provided in Part 12.
It is important that your personal data is kept accurate and up-to-date. If any of the personal data we hold about you changes, please keep us informed as long as we have that data. Please use the floating ‘Legal Policies’ link on Our Site to request data rectification.
Further information about your rights can also be obtained from the Information Commissioner’s Office or your local Citizens Advice Bureau.
If you have any cause for complaint about our use of your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office. We would welcome the opportunity to resolve your concerns ourselves, however, so please contact us first, using the details in Part 12.

6. How Do You Use My Personal Data?
Under the Data Protection Legislation, we must always have a lawful basis for using personal data. The following table describes how we will use your personal data and our lawful bases for doing so:
| What We Do | What Data We Use | Our Lawful Basis |
| Administering our business. | We use your name, your email address, and your message information. | Legitimate Interests: processing your data allows us to determine how we can best provide our services to you, keep our project materials up to date and enables us to keep accurate records for each project. |
| Supplying our services to you, including personalising and tailoring our services for you. | We use your name, your email address, and your message information. | Legitimate interests: processing your data is necessary for us to progress our supply of bespoke services to you. This includes learning in-depth about your particular client need, providing you with progress updates, and negotiating any issues or difficulties that may arise. |
| Managing payments for services to you. | We use your name and your email address. | Legitimate Interest: being able to email invoices to you and to keep accurate financial invoice records. |
| Supplying you with information by email that you have opted-in to (you may opt-out at any time by clicking on a 'consent' button on a sign-up or contact form on Our Site and following the instructions that followed). | We use your name and your email address. | Consent and legitimate interests: you have given clear consent for us to process your personal data for the purposes of supplying you with information about our business activities, work, future opportunities, and offers, and to build trusting relationships between us. |
With your permission, and where it is permitted by law, we may also use your personal data for marketing purposes, which may include contacting you by email with information, news, and offers on our media-related products and services. You will not be sent any unlawful marketing or spam. We will always work to fully protect your rights and comply with our obligations under the Data Protection Legislation and the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003, and you will always have the opportunity to opt out. We will always obtain your express opt-in consent before sharing your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes and you will be able to opt-out at any time.
We use the following automated systems for carrying out certain kinds of decision-making. If at any point you wish to query any action that we take on the basis of this or wish to request ‘human intervention’ (i.e. have someone review the action themselves, rather than relying only on the automated method), the Data Protection Legislation gives you the right to do so. Please contact us to find out more using the details in Part 12.
The following automated decision-making methods may be used:
- We produce several newsletters and email campaigns, each of which covers different areas of our business. Depending on the area you have given us legal consent to inform you about, your data will be added onto a particular newsletter list or email list covering your area of interest. This will be done using the following data capture and marketing automation platforms: MailingBoss. Based on a series of conditions set up by us within our chosen communication platforms, the platforms make a decision to place your contact data in one or more campaign lists, based on the information you have provided and the actions you have taken e.g. whether or not you opened a particular email, whether or not you clicked on a blog article, etc. The effect is that you will receive periodic newsletters and/or emails covering the area(s) you are interested in and tailored to the information you used to opt-in.
- We will only use your personal data for the purpose(s) for which it was originally collected unless we reasonably believe that another purpose is compatible with that or those original purpose(s) and need to use your personal data for that purpose. If we do use your personal data in this way and you wish us to explain how the new purpose is compatible with the original, please contact us using the details in Part 12.
- If we need to use your personal data for a purpose that is unrelated to, or incompatible with, the purpose(s) for which it was originally collected, we will inform you and explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.
- In some circumstances, where permitted or required by law, we may process your personal data without your knowledge or consent. This will only be done within the bounds of the Data Protection Legislation and your legal rights.
7. How Long Will You Keep My Personal Data?
We will not keep your personal data for any longer than is necessary, within the context of the reason(s) for which it was first collected. Your personal data will therefore be kept for the following periods (or, where there is no fixed period, the following factors will be used to determine how long it is kept):
| Type of Data | How Long We Keep It |
| Identity Information consisting of your name. | We will retain your contact name in our database as long as you have given us your consent via an opt-in form, out of contractual necessity if you are in a binding contract with us. Additionally, it is in our legitimate interest to keep you informed of our business activity with the aim of building relationships and providing you with personalised and tailored offers you may be interested in. You will always have the option of opting out. This option will be at the bottom of any newsletter and email we send. Once you decide to opt-out your name will be deleted from our database within one month. |
| Contact information consisting of your email address. | We will retain your contact email in our database as long as you have given us your consent via an opt-in form, as it is in our legitimate interest to keep you informed of our business activity with the aim of building relationships and providing you with personalised and tailored offers you may be interested in. You will always have the option of opting out. This option will be at the bottom of any newsletter and email we send. If you decide to opt-out your email will be deleted from our database within one week. |
8. How and Where Do You Store or Transfer My Personal Data?
We will store some of your personal data within the European Economic Area (the “EEA”). The EEA consists of all EU member states, plus Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein. This means that your personal data will be fully protected under the EU GDPR and/or to equivalent standards by law. Transfers of personal data to the EEA from the UK are permitted without additional safeguards.
We will store some of your personal data in the United States of America. This is known as a “third country”. Our reason for this is that some of the marketing platforms we use are either based in the United States of America or these platforms have their data storage facilities in the United States of America. We will take additional steps in order to ensure that your personal data is treated just as safely and securely as it would be within the UK and under the Data Protection Legislation as follows:
- We will only store or transfer personal data in or to countries that are deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data. For further information about adequacy decisions and adequacy regulations, please refer to the Information Commissioner’s Office.
Please contact us using the details below in Part 12 for further information about the particular data protection safeguards used by us when transferring your personal data to a third country.
The security of your personal data is essential to us, and to protect your data, we take a number of important measures, including the following:
- ensuring high-level encryption across all devices and platforms to prevent unauthorised access to personal data.
- limiting access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties with a legitimate need to know and ensuring that they are subject to duties of confidentiality.
- procedures for dealing with data breaches (the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to, your personal data) including notifying you and/or the Information Commissioner’s Office where we are legally required to do so.
- finding out what happened to cause the breach, pulling together all facts as soon as possible.
- containing the breach: taking immediate steps to attempt to recover the data as soon as a breach has been discovered. These steps include, but shall not be limited to, retracing appropriate steps, requesting the deletion of data that has been mistakenly sent, and changing all passwords and access details.
- assessing the risk. Determining the impact of a data breach on clients, customers, and staff, and acting accordingly.
9. Do You Share My Personal Data?
We will not share any of your personal data with any third parties for any purposes, subject to the following exceptions:
- If we sell, transfer, or merge parts of our business or assets, we will contact you by email to inform you. You shall be given the option to continue to opt-in, or to opt-out of future communications with any new owners. Your personal data will not be transferred to a third party without your consent.
- We may share your personal data with other divisions in our group if those divisions can provide you with more effective services or products. Our other business divisions are Just Anim8 Workshops, Just Anim8 and Qonverti8. These divisions handle related areas of media, content production, and marketing services. In regard to the sharing of your data, the same privacy policy shall apply to our other divisions.
- In some limited circumstances, we may be legally required to share certain personal data, which might include yours, if we are involved in legal proceedings or complying with legal obligations, a court order, or the instructions of a government authority.
10. Can I Withhold Information?
At present, you may access Our Site without providing any personal data at all. However, if you wish to take advantage of one of our offers, whether they be giveaways or purchases, you will be asked to enter personal information such as your name, email address, physical address, and phone number, so that we will be able to deliver your items, contact you if there are any problems, and to maintain a high quality of service to you.
11. How Can I Access My Personal Data?
If you want to know the types of personal data we have about you, you can ask us for details of that personal data and for a copy of it (where any such personal data is held). This is known as a “subject access request”.
The fastest and easiest way of making a subject access request is for you to click on the floating ‘Legal Policies’ button, which is at the bottom right-hand corner of Our Site, selecting the ‘Personal Data Access’ tab, entering your name and email address, and ticking the consent box, before finally clicking on ‘Submit’ to send us your request.
Alternatively, all subject access requests can be made in writing and sent to the email or postal addresses shown in Part 12. To make this as easy as possible for you, a Subject Access Request Form is available for you to use at the end of this policy notice. You do not have to use this form, but it is the easiest way to tell us everything we need to know to respond to your request as quickly as possible.
There is not normally any charge for a subject access request. If your request is ‘manifestly unfounded or excessive’ (for example, if you make repetitive requests) a fee may be charged to cover our administrative costs in responding.
We will respond to your subject access request within two weeks and, in any case, not more than one month after receiving it. Normally, we aim to provide a complete response, including a copy of your personal data within that time. In some cases, however, particularly if your request is more complex, more time may be required up to a maximum of three months from the date we receive your request. You will be kept fully informed of our progress.
