How We Use Your Data
We use your information to:

We do not:

Data Sharing
We may share data with trusted third parties where necessary, such as:

• Freelancers or crew working on a project

• Cloud storage providers (e.g. Google Drive, Frame.io)

• Professional advisers (e.g. accountants)

All third parties are expected to handle data securely and in line with data protection laws.
International Transfers
Some of the tools we use (e.g. cloud platforms) may store data outside the UK.
Where this happens, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place (such as standard contractual clauses).

Data Retention
We only keep data for as long as necessary:

• Enquiries: typically up to 12 months

If you’d like us to delete your data sooner, just ask.

Data Security
We take data security seriously and use appropriate measures, including:

• Secure storage systems

• Password protection

• Controlled access to files

No system is 100% bulletproof—but we do everything reasonably expected to keep your data safe.

Third-Party Links
Our website may include links to external sites.
We’re not responsible for how those sites handle your data—so it’s worth checking their policies too.
