We may collect and process the following types of personal information when you engage with our services or contact us:
- Identity details such as your name, job title, and company or organisation.

How We Use Your Information
We use the personal information we collect for the following purposes:
- Responding to enquiries — to answer your questions, provide information about our production services, and offer guidance on potential projects.
- Processing service requests — to review briefs, prepare proposals, estimate budgets and timelines, and progress discussions towards a contract or booking.
- Managing projects — to plan, schedule, and deliver production work, coordinate with you and relevant stakeholders, and ensure smooth collaboration throughout pre-production, filming, editing, and final delivery.
- Client relationship management — to maintain records of previous and ongoing projects, feedback, and communications in order to deliver a consistent and professional service experience.
- Tailored communication and support — to share relevant updates about your project, provide logistical information, request approvals, and deliver post-project follow-up where appropriate.
- Business administration — to maintain internal records, comply with legal and regulatory obligations, manage accounting and invoicing, and improve our operational processes.
Data Retention Policy
We only retain personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including any business, legal, or contractual requirements. Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of your engagement with us, such as whether you are a prospective client, active client, or former client.
After the relevant retention period has expired, or when the data is no longer required, we will securely delete, anonymise, or otherwise remove identifying details from your information, in line with applicable legal and regulatory obligations.
Legal Bases for Processing
We process your personal data in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. Depending on the context, our processing of your information may rely on one or more of the following legal bases:
- Legitimate interests — for example, to respond to your enquiries, manage our relationship with you, improve our services, or operate our business in a secure and effective manner, provided that such interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms.
- Contractual obligations — where processing is necessary to enter into or perform a contract with you or your organisation, including pre-contractual steps taken at your request.
- Consent — where you have given clear and explicit consent for us to process your personal data for a specific purpose. You may withdraw your consent at any time, as described in the Your Rights section.
- Legal compliance — where processing is required to comply with a legal obligation, regulatory requirement, or lawful request from an authority.
International Data Transfers
Some of our partners, subcontractors, or service providers may be located, or may process personal data, outside the United Kingdom. Where your data is transferred internationally, we take steps to ensure it remains appropriately protected.
If your personal data is transferred outside the UK, we will rely on suitable safeguards, such as the use of standard contractual clauses or other equivalent mechanisms approved under the UK GDPR. These measures are designed to ensure that your information receives a level of protection essentially equivalent to that provided within the United Kingdom.
Data Security Measures
We employ robust physical, technical, and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include, where appropriate:
- Restricted access to personal data based on role and operational necessity.
- Use of secure systems, tools, and infrastructure for storing and processing information.
- Reasonable safeguards to maintain the confidentiality and integrity of project materials and communications.
- Internal procedures designed to identify and respond to potential data security incidents.
While we take reasonable steps to protect your personal data, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is entirely risk free. As such, we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we are committed to handling your information with a high level of care and professionalism.
Your Rights
Under the UK GDPR, you have a number of rights in relation to your personal data, subject to certain legal limitations and exemptions. These include the right to:
- Access — request confirmation as to whether we process your personal data and obtain a copy of that information.
- Rectification — ask us to correct or update any inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you.
- Erasure — request deletion of your personal data where there is no compelling reason for us to continue processing it, subject to our legal and contractual obligations.
- Restriction — request that we limit the way we use your data in certain circumstances.
- Objection — object to processing carried out on the basis of our legitimate interests, where your particular situation justifies it.
- Withdraw consent — withdraw any consent you have previously given, at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing before consent was withdrawn.
- Data portability — in certain situations, request that we provide your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, or transfer it to another controller where technically feasible.
