2. Cookies

The Site does not use cookies.

 

3. Information we may collect about you

If you are only browsing the website then no information about you will be stored. If you decide to contact us, then only the data we ask you to enter will be stored. Note this information will not be augmented with information about other pages you have visited on the website.

Alongside most other websites we use website analytics software which collects information about how people use our website. However, this information is anonymised and cannot be traced back to you. This information is used to help make sure our web servers are working well and to identify which parts of our websites are most/least popular so that we can improve the overall user experience.

 

4. How we use information collected about you

Any information collected about you is solely used to provide the service or information you have requested (e.g. if you wish to contact us). Your information will not be used for any kind of profiling or subsequent marketing. Because we only use your data to provide services you have actively requested and therefore given consent to, the processing of your personal data falls under article 6.1.a of UK GDPR.

 

5. Where will information about you be stored?

If you submit information to any of BAFTA’s websites then your details will be held on BAFTA’s web server database (located in the EU) and will ultimately be downloaded to BAFTA’s internal network (in London) for processing.

We use industry best practice technological and operational security measures to protect your information against any unauthorised access to or unlawful use.

We will retain your information for as long as is necessary to provide you with the services that you have requested from us or for as long as the law otherwise permits.

We do not sell information about our subscribers.

 

6. Who is responsible for my information?

Any information collected about you on any of the BAFTA websites will be kept under BAFTA’s control. BAFTA is registered charity (No. 216726) and can be contacted using the following details:

7. Who we might share your information with?

We will only share your personal information with:

Selected third parties that we work with, where necessary for the purposes of delivering to you services that you request from us.
Any other third parties where necessary to enable us to enforce our legal rights, or to protect the rights, property or safety of our employees or where such disclosure may be permitted or required by law.

Our website may contain content and links to other websites that are operated by third parties. We don’t control these third party websites (including whether or not they store cookies) and this privacy policy does not apply to them. Please consult the terms and conditions and privacy policy of the relevant third party website to find out how that site collects and uses your information and to establish whether and for what purpose they use cookies.
