Last updated: 19 September 2026
Who We Are and Our Role as Data Controller
showpixel operates this website as the data controller under UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. We determine the purposes and means of processing personal data collected through the site. Our registered address is Beaconsfield Studios, Station Road, Beaconsfield, HP9 1LG. For any privacy queries please contact us at [email protected] or by telephone on +44 1494 731425.
Scope of This Privacy Notice
This notice explains how we handle personal data of visitors to the site, individuals who submit enquiries via the contact form, and anyone who interacts with our professional resources on studio production topics. It applies to all users in the United Kingdom and covers data collected online and through any related services we provide.
Categories of Personal Data and Their Sources
We collect identification data such as name and job title, contact details including email address and telephone number, technical data such as IP address and browser type, and usage data from site interactions. Most information is obtained directly from you when you complete the contact form or otherwise communicate with us. Some technical data is collected automatically through server logs and cookies.
Purposes of Processing and Legal Bases
We process your data to respond to enquiries submitted through the contact form under the legal basis of legitimate interests. We maintain the site and improve its functionality on the basis of legitimate interests. Where you have given consent we may send occasional updates about our studio production resources. Compliance with legal obligations such as record keeping forms another basis for processing. Each purpose is assessed individually and we do not process data beyond what is necessary.
Whether Providing Data Is Required
Supplying your name and contact details through the form is voluntary yet necessary for us to reply to your message. If you choose not to provide this information we will be unable to respond. Technical data collected automatically cannot be declined without leaving the site or adjusting browser settings.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
The site uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to ensure basic functionality and analyse usage. Details of the specific cookies employed and how to manage them are set out in our separate Cookie Policy which is accessible from the site footer. You may adjust your browser preferences at any time to limit cookie use.
Processors, Recipients and Lawful Disclosures
We share data with service providers who act as processors such as hosting companies and email delivery platforms. These parties are bound by contract to process data only on our instructions. We may also disclose information where required by law to regulators or law enforcement bodies. No sale of personal data occurs.
International Transfers of Data
Some processors may be located outside the United Kingdom. In such cases we rely on appropriate safeguards including standard contractual clauses approved for use under UK GDPR to ensure an adequate level of protection.
Data Retention Periods
Contact form data is retained for twelve months after the last correspondence unless a longer period is needed to meet legal obligations. Technical logs are kept for a maximum of ninety days. We apply these criteria consistently and review retention schedules regularly.
Security Measures and Data Minimisation
We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access or loss. Data collection is limited to what is strictly required for the stated purposes. No security measure can be guaranteed to be completely effective at all times.
Your Data Protection Rights
Under UK GDPR you have the right to access your personal data, request rectification or erasure, restrict processing, and request data portability where applicable. To exercise these rights please write to [email protected] providing sufficient information to identify your records. We will respond within one month.
Withdrawing Consent and Objecting to Marketing
Where processing is based on consent you may withdraw it at any time by contacting us. You also have the right to object to processing for direct marketing purposes. Any marketing communications we send will include an easy unsubscribe option.
Right to Complain to the Supervisory Authority
If you are dissatisfied with our handling of your data you may lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk. We encourage you to contact us first so that we may attempt to resolve the matter directly.
Children and Age Restrictions
The site is intended for professionals and adults engaged in television and live production work. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of eighteen. If we become aware that data has been provided by a child we will delete it promptly.
Automated Decision Making and Profiling
We do not use automated decision making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects on individuals. Any analytics performed are for internal improvement only and do not result in automated decisions about users.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in law or our practices. The date of the most recent revision appears at the top of the page. Continued use of the site after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
