Privacy Policy
Last updated: 23 September 2026
Who We Are and Our Role as Data Controller
newspixel 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 Briar Cottage, Holyhead Road, Llanfairpwll, Gwynedd LL61 5YX, United Kingdom and you can reach our privacy team at [email protected] or by telephone on 0300 111 4123.
Scope of This Notice
This policy explains how we handle personal data of visitors located in the United Kingdom who access our professional resource on studio production techniques. It covers data collected via the contact form, cookie banner interactions, and any other direct submissions. It does not apply to third-party sites linked from our pages.
Categories of Personal Data and Their Sources
We collect identification details such as name and email address when you use the contact form. Usage data including IP address, browser type and pages viewed is gathered automatically through server logs. Information about your preferences for studio equipment topics may be inferred from navigation patterns. All data originates directly from you or your device unless supplied by a third-party analytics provider acting on our instructions.
Purposes of Processing and Legal Bases
We process contact details to respond to enquiries on the basis of legitimate interest in providing customer support. Usage data supports site functionality and security under the same legitimate interest basis. Where you consent via the cookie banner we process analytics cookies to improve content relevance under consent. Marketing communications are sent only with your explicit consent. Each purpose is documented internally with a record of the applicable lawful basis.
Requirement to Provide Data and Consequences
Supplying contact information through the form is voluntary. If you choose not to provide it we cannot respond to your query. Browsing the site without accepting optional cookies is possible although some usage analytics features will be limited. No service is withheld solely because you decline non-essential data collection.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use essential cookies for site operation and optional analytics cookies to understand visitor behaviour. Full details of each cookie category, duration and purpose are set out in our separate Cookie Policy which is accessible from the site footer. You may manage preferences at any time through the cookie banner controls.
Processors, Recipients and Legal Disclosures
Service providers such as hosting companies, email delivery platforms and analytics tools receive data only to the extent necessary to perform their functions under written contracts. We may disclose information if required by law enforcement or regulatory bodies in accordance with PECR and UK GDPR. No data is sold to third parties.
International Transfers and Safeguards
Some processors are located outside the United Kingdom. Where transfers occur we rely on UK adequacy regulations or standard contractual clauses approved by the Information Commissioner’s Office together with supplementary technical measures such as encryption in transit and at rest.
Retention Periods
Contact form submissions are retained for twelve months after the last correspondence. Server logs are kept for a maximum of ninety days. Analytics data is aggregated or deleted within twenty-four months. These periods may be extended only where legal obligations require longer retention.
Security and Data Minimisation
We apply industry-standard technical and organisational measures including encryption, access controls and regular security reviews. Data collection is limited to what is necessary for the stated purposes. While we take reasonable steps we cannot guarantee absolute security against all threats.
Your Data Protection Rights
Under UK GDPR you may request access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability or objection to processing of your personal data. Requests should be sent to [email protected]. We will respond within one month and may request identification to verify your identity. A free method of exercise is provided via the contact form or by post to Briar Cottage, Holyhead Road, Llanfairpwll, Gwynedd LL61 5YX, United Kingdom.
Withdrawing Consent and Objecting to Marketing
You may withdraw consent for optional cookies or marketing emails at any time by adjusting your browser settings, using the unsubscribe link in emails, or contacting us. Objection to profiling for direct marketing purposes will be honoured without undue delay.
Right to Complain to the Supervisory Authority
If you believe your data protection rights have been infringed you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk. We encourage you to contact us first so we can attempt to resolve the matter directly.
Children and Age Restrictions
The website content is intended for professionals aged eighteen and over. We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under eighteen. If we become aware that such data has been collected we will delete it promptly.
Automated Decision-Making and Profiling
We do not engage in automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects. Simple analytics used for content improvement do not constitute such processing.
Changes to This Policy
We review this policy periodically and will update it when material changes occur. The last-updated date at the top of the page indicates the current version. Continued use of the site after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
