PRIVACY POLICY
1. Who we are
ACE MEDIA LIMITED is the controller of the personal information described in this notice. This means we decide why and how that information is used.
2. Information we collect
Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect:
• Contact and identity details, such as your name, job title, organisation, email address and telephone number.
• Enquiry and project information, including messages, briefs, budgets, schedules, attachments and other information you choose to send us.
• Client and supplier records, such as proposals, contracts, purchase orders, invoices, payment status and correspondence.
• Website and device information, such as IP address, browser and device type, pages viewed, referring pages, approximate location and cookie or similar identifiers.
• Marketing preferences and records of how you engage with our communications.
• Production and portfolio information, where relevant to a project, such as names, roles, recorded image or voice, testimonials and agreed credits.
We usually collect information directly from you, from your organisation or from your use of this website. We may also receive business contact information from publicly available professional sources, referrals, clients, production partners or service providers.
3. How and why we use information
We use personal information only where we have a valid reason under UK data protection law. Our main purposes and lawful bases are:
• Responding to enquiries and preparing proposals — to take steps at your request before entering into a contract and for our legitimate interest in developing our business.
• Delivering projects and managing relationships — to perform a contract, administer bookings, communicate with clients and suppliers, and manage production logistics.
• Billing, accounting and record keeping — to perform contracts, meet legal obligations and protect our legitimate business interests.
• Operating, securing and improving the website — for our legitimate interests in providing a reliable website, preventing misuse and understanding performance. We use consent where required for non-essential cookies or similar technologies.
• Marketing our services — with consent where required, or for our legitimate interest in promoting relevant business-to-business services. You can opt out at any time.
• Publishing agreed work, testimonials and case studies — under contract, consent or legitimate interests, depending on the project and the people involved.
• Complying with law and handling disputes — to meet legal obligations and establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
We do not use personal information for solely automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects.
4. Cookies, analytics and embedded content
This website uses necessary cookies to function. With your permission, it may also use analytics, media, advertising or other non-essential technologies. Our website is hosted by Squarespace and includes services or embedded content from providers such as video hosting, Google services, social networks, reviews and website chat or contact tools. Those providers may receive technical information when their content loads or when you interact with it.
You can accept, reject or change non-essential cookie choices through Cookie Preferences on the website. Your browser can also block or delete cookies, although parts of the site may then work differently.
5. Who we share information with
We may share information, only where necessary, with:
• website, hosting, email, cloud storage, analytics, video, communications and IT providers;
• accountants, insurers, professional advisers and payment or invoicing providers;
• trusted crew, freelancers, studios, venues, clients and other production partners involved in a project;
• public authorities, regulators, courts or law-enforcement bodies where required; and
• a buyer, investor or adviser in connection with a genuine business sale or restructuring.
Service providers acting for us are expected to protect personal information and use it only for the agreed purpose. We do not sell personal information.
6. International transfers
Some service providers may process information outside the United Kingdom. Where this happens, we use an adequacy regulation or appropriate safeguards recognised by UK data protection law, such as approved contractual protections, and take additional measures where appropriate. Contact us if you would like more information about safeguards relevant to your data.
7. How long we keep information
We keep information only for as long as reasonably needed for the purpose for which it was collected, including legal, accounting and insurance requirements. As a general guide:
• enquiries that do not become projects are usually kept for up to 24 months;
• client, supplier, contract and accounting records are generally kept for six years after the relevant financial year or end of the relationship;
• marketing records are kept until you opt out or they are no longer useful, with suppression details retained so we can respect an opt-out;
• website analytics and cookie data are kept according to the relevant cookie setting and provider retention period; and
• project files, footage, credits and portfolio material are kept in line with project agreements, consent, legitimate archival needs and our backup schedule.
We may keep information for longer where a dispute, legal duty or agreed archive requires it.
8. Security
We use reasonable organisational and technical measures designed to protect personal information from loss, misuse, unauthorised access, alteration or disclosure. No online system is completely secure, so please avoid sending confidential or sensitive information through ordinary email unless suitable protection has been agreed.
9. Your rights
Depending on the circumstances, you may have the right to:
• ask for a copy of your personal information;
• correct inaccurate or incomplete information;
• ask us to erase or restrict the use of information;
• object to processing based on legitimate interests, including direct marketing;
• receive certain information in a portable format; and
• withdraw consent at any time, without affecting earlier lawful use.
You have an absolute right to object to direct marketing. To exercise a right, email hello@ace-media.info. We may need to verify your identity before responding.
10. Complaints
Please contact us first so we can try to resolve any concern. You also have the right to complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office. Visit ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint or call 0303 123 1113.
11. Children
This website is not directed at children under 16 and we do not knowingly collect their information through the website. Where a production involves children, project-specific consent, contractual and safeguarding arrangements apply.
12. External links
