pressqizo acts as the data controller for the personal data processed through this website. We are responsible for determining the purposes and means of processing personal data collected in connection with our Course A press production resource services, which include interview planning, media briefings, studio setup, camera placement, lighting arrangements, and organised communication workflows. Our registered address is 1 London Bridge Street, London, SE1 9GF, United Kingdom and we can be contacted at [email protected].
2. Scope of the notice and the people it covers
This notice applies to all visitors to the website, individuals who submit enquiries via the contact form, clients engaging our production services, and any other persons whose personal data we process. It covers data collected online and offline in the course of providing press production resources within the United Kingdom.
3. Categories of personal data and the sources from which they are obtained
We collect contact details such as names and email addresses submitted through forms, professional information including job titles and media affiliations, technical data such as IP addresses and browser types from website interactions, and service-related data such as project briefs or workflow preferences. Data is obtained directly from individuals, from publicly available professional directories, and from third-party service providers assisting with production logistics.
4. Purpose-by-purpose explanation of processing and the legal basis for each purpose
We process data to respond to enquiries on the basis of legitimate interests in providing customer service. We manage client accounts and deliver production services under contractual necessity. We send service updates under legitimate interests or consent where required. We analyse website usage to improve offerings under legitimate interests. We comply with legal obligations such as record-keeping under the legal basis of compliance with law.
5. Whether providing data is required and the consequences of not providing it
Providing contact and project information is necessary to receive responses to enquiries or to engage our services. Failure to supply required data may result in our inability to process requests, deliver resources, or maintain communication regarding studio setups and workflows.
6. Cookies and similar technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to enable essential site functions and to understand visitor behaviour. Details are set out in our separate Cookie Policy, which explains how to manage preferences via the site-wide cookie banner.
7. Processors, service-provider categories, recipients, and disclosures required by law
We engage processors such as hosting providers, email delivery services, and production workflow tools. Categories of recipients include IT support companies and professional advisers. We may disclose data where required by law, regulation, or court order to public authorities.
8. International transfers and the safeguards used when they apply
Where data is transferred outside the United Kingdom, we use appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses approved by the UK Government or adequacy decisions where available to ensure equivalent protection.
9. Specific retention periods or defensible criteria for deciding them
Contact data is retained for up to six years after the last interaction to meet legal accounting requirements. Technical logs are kept for twelve months. Service records are retained for the duration of the client relationship plus seven years to support potential disputes or regulatory enquiries.
10. Security and data-minimisation practices
We apply appropriate technical and organisational measures including encryption, access controls, and regular security reviews. We limit collection to data strictly necessary for the stated purposes and conduct periodic reviews to delete or anonymise data no longer required.
11. All applicable data-subject rights and a practical method for exercising them
Individuals may request access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, or objection to processing by contacting us at [email protected]. We will respond within one month, subject to verification of identity and applicable exceptions.
12. The right to withdraw consent and object to direct marketing or profiling
Where processing relies on consent, it may be withdrawn at any time by emailing [email protected]. Individuals have the right to object to direct marketing and any profiling activities; we will cease such processing upon receipt of a valid objection.
13. The right to complain to the competent supervisory authority
Complaints may be lodged with the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk. We encourage individuals to contact us first at [email protected] to seek resolution.
14. Children or age restrictions
Our services are intended for professional users aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 18.
