If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and explain the legal basis that allows us to do so.

5. MARKETING

Direct marketing: You will receive marketing communications from us only if you have requested information from us and you have not opted out of receiving the marketing. We may also analyse your Identity, Contact, Technical, Usage and Transaction Data to form a view of which content, services and offers may be of interest to you so that we can then send you relevant marketing communications.

Third‑party marketing: We will obtain your express consent before we share your personal data with any third party for their own direct marketing purposes.

Opting out of marketing: You can ask to stop sending you marketing communications at any time by following the opt‑out links within any marketing communication sent to you or by contacting us using the contact details provided below (section 11). If you opt out of marketing communications, you will still receive communications that are essential for doing business with you, for example, messages relating to a project we are working on together.

6. DISCLOSURES OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA

Where necessary, we may share your personal data with the parties set out below, strictly for the purposes set out in the Purposes for which we will use your personal data table above (section 4). We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third‑party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes, in accordance with our instructions.

7. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS

The majority of our business partners, collaborators, users, and Contributors are based in the United Kingdom. However, from time to time we may transfer your personal data internationally to entities based in other jurisdictions that carry out certain functions on our behalf. In particular, our email and cloud storage provider is in Switzerland, and we may in future use platforms based in the United States or elsewhere to host video content.

In some instances, the destination country or countries may have laws that do not provide the same level of data protection as required in the UK or elsewhere in Europe. Accordingly, whenever we transfer your data internationally:

8. DATA SECURITY

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. For example, ExR uses encryption, password protections, and multi-factor authentication on its systems to prevent unauthorised access to personal data. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties (such as our Business Partners and Collaborators, described in section 6) who have a proper justification to use your personal data. We also have procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will follow all legal requirements with regard to notifying you and any applicable regulator of a breach.

9. DATA RETENTION

The GDPR’s data minimisation principle states that personal data should only be collected and stored when it is necessary to accomplish a specific purpose. It also states that data should only be kept for as long as it is needed.

To determine the length of time ExR will keep (retain) your personal data, we consider:

We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including any tax or regulatory requirements. Some Contributor data may also need to be retained for extended periods due to the nature of our business: we have set out further details below.

Data Retained for Limited Periods

Data Retained for Business & Compliance Purposes

Data Retained Indefinitely (or Long‑Term)

In some situations you can ask us to delete your data: please see section 10 below for further information.

10. YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS

You have certain rights under data‑protection laws in relation to your personal data:

If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the contact details provided in section 11.

No fee usually required: You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we could refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

What we may need from you: We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

Time limit to respond: We try to respond to all legitimate requests within 30 days. Occasionally it could take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made multiple requests. In any event, we will notify you.

11. CONTACT DETAILS

If you have any questions about this privacy policy or wish to exercise your rights, please contact us in the following ways:

12. COMPLAINTS

You have the right to make a complaint at any time regarding our use of your personal data, including where you believe we are unlawfully processing your data. For UK residents, data‑protection complaints are handled by the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK regulator for data‑protection issues (www.ico.org.uk). For EEA residents, you may complain to your local data‑protection authority (https://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/bodies/authorities/index_en.htm).

We would, however, appreciate the chance to address your concerns before you approach the ICO or other regulator, so please so contact us in the first instance.

13. CHANGES TO THIS POLICY AND / OR YOUR PERSONAL DATA

We keep our privacy policy under regular review, and the date of last update appears at the beginning of it. It is important that the personal data we hold about you is accurate and current. Please keep us informed if your personal data changes during your relationship with us, for example a new address or email address.
