PRIVACY POLICY

Now for the boring legal stuff.

Nobody's favourite part of a website, but it's important. Here's what information I collect, why I collect it, and what happens to it when you get in touch.

Last updated: 29 September 2026

What information I collect

If you contact me through this website, I may collect information such as:

Your name
Your email address
Your telephone or WhatsApp number, if you provide it
Details about your project or enquiry
Any other information you choose to include in your message

The website may also collect some technical information automatically, such as your IP address, browser type, device information and pages visited. This is generally collected through Squarespace's website infrastructure and analytics tools.

I only collect information that I reasonably need to operate this website, respond to enquiries and provide my services.

How I use your information

I may use your information to:

Respond to enquiries and messages
Discuss and arrange filming or editing work
Provide quotes, estimates or other information about my services
Communicate with you about a project you have asked me to work on
Keep appropriate records relating to work I have carried out
Understand how people use this website and improve it

I will not use your personal information for unrelated purposes without a lawful basis for doing so.

How I use your information lawfully

Depending on why I am processing your information, I rely on the lawful bases available under UK data protection law.

For example, when you contact me about a potential project, I may process your information because it is necessary to take steps at your request before entering into a contract.

Where information is needed to carry out an agreed job or maintain appropriate business records, I may process it because it is necessary for the performance of a contract or because I have a legitimate interest in running and managing my freelance business.

Where I rely on consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time.

Website analytics and cookies

This website is hosted using Squarespace. Squarespace may collect technical information about visitors and use cookies and similar technologies to operate the website, provide functionality and, where enabled, provide analytics.

Some cookies are necessary for the website to function. Other analytics or non-essential cookies may only be used where the appropriate consent has been obtained.

You can find more information about the cookies used by Squarespace through Squarespace's own documentation.

Who I share your information with

I don't sell your personal information.

Information you provide may be processed by service providers that I use to operate my website and business. This may include:

Squarespace, which hosts this website and processes information submitted through its website tools
Email and communication providers, where necessary to communicate with you
Other service providers where they are reasonably necessary to carry out a project or provide a service you have requested

I will only share information where there is a legitimate reason to do so and, where required, an appropriate legal basis.

How long I keep your information

I don't keep personal information indefinitely.

Enquiry information may be kept for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to your enquiry and, where you become a client, for as long as necessary to manage the project and maintain appropriate business, financial and legal records.

The exact length of time will depend on the nature of the information and why I need to keep it.

When information is no longer required, I will take reasonable steps to securely delete or dispose of it.

Your rights

Depending on the circumstances, UK data protection law gives you rights including:

The right to ask for a copy of the personal information I hold about you
The right to ask me to correct inaccurate information
The right to ask me to delete your information
The right to ask me to restrict how I use your information
The right to object to certain types of processing
The right to data portability in certain circumstances
The right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

These rights are not absolute and may not apply in every situation.

If you would like to exercise one of these rights, contact me using the details below.

Complaints

If you are unhappy with how I have handled your personal information, please contact me first so that I have the opportunity to address your concerns.

You also have the right to complain to the UK's data protection regulator, the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).

You can find information about making a complaint on the ICO's website.

Changes to this policy

I may update this privacy policy from time to time if the way I use personal information changes or if legal or regulatory requirements change.

The latest version will always be available on this website.
