2. Website Hosting

This website is created and hosted using Squarespace. When you visit the website, technical information may be processed to deliver the website, maintain security, and ensure its proper functioning.

Depending on your visit and the website configuration, this may include your IP address, browser and device information, access times, and pages requested.

The processing is carried out to provide the website securely and reliably and, where applicable, to comply with legal obligations.

Squarespace processes personal data in connection with providing its services. Further information is available in Squarespace’s Privacy Policy and its Data Processing Addendum.

3. Contact by Email

If you contact me by email, I process the information you provide, including your email address, name if supplied, and the content of your message.

This information is used to respond to your enquiry and communicate with you. Where applicable, it may also be processed to take steps before entering into a contract, fulfil a contract, or meet legal obligations.

The legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR where the enquiry relates to a contract or pre-contractual steps, and Article 6(1)(f) GDPR for other legitimate communication interests, where applicable.

I retain correspondence only for as long as necessary to handle the enquiry and comply with any applicable legal retention requirements.

4. Videos and Film Content

This website presents documentary films and other audiovisual work. The films are hosted directly through Squarespace rather than embedded from external video platforms, according to the current website setup.

When you access or play a video, technical data may be processed to deliver the content and maintain the website. The exact data and any associated cookies depend on the hosting and video configuration.

5. Website Analytics and Cookies

This website uses Squarespace Analytics to understand how visitors use the website and to improve its content and functionality.

Squarespace may use cookies and similar technologies to collect information about website visits, traffic sources, and interactions. The specific cookies, their purposes, and their storage periods depend on the website configuration.

Where required by law, non-essential analytics cookies and similar technologies will only be used after valid consent has been obtained. You can manage your preferences through the website’s cookie settings, where available.

Technically necessary cookies may be used where required to provide the website and its requested functions.

Further information about Squarespace cookies is available in the Squarespace Cookie Guide.

6. External Links and Social Media

This website contains links to external websites and social media platforms, such as Instagram and LinkedIn. These are ordinary links, not embedded social media feeds.

When you follow an external link, the privacy policy of the respective provider applies. I do not control how external websites process personal data.

7. Recipients and International Data Transfers

Personal data may be processed by Squarespace and its relevant service providers insofar as necessary to operate and maintain the website.

Depending on the services used and the applicable arrangements, personal data may be transferred to countries outside the European Economic Area. Where such transfers take place, the applicable legal requirements and safeguards must be observed.

Further information about Squarespace’s data processing arrangements is available in its privacy documentation and Data Processing Addendum.

8. Data Retention

Personal data is retained only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy or as required by applicable law.

The specific retention period depends on the type of data, the purpose of processing, and any applicable statutory retention obligations.

9. Your Rights

Under the GDPR, you may have the right to:

  • Request access to your personal data.

  • Request the correction of inaccurate data.

  • Request the erasure of your personal data.

  • Request the restriction of processing.

  • Receive certain personal data in a portable format.

  • Object to processing based on legitimate interests.

  • Withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent, without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

To exercise your rights, please contact me using the email address provided above.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority.

This Privacy Policy may be updated if the website, the services used, or the applicable legal requirements change. The current version will be published on this page.
