Clients are normally invoiced directly and make payment using one of the methods shown on the invoice. Banks and payment-service providers process payment information under their own privacy terms.

We retain invoices and associated transaction records to manage our accounts and comply with our legal and tax obligations.

Who we share information with

We do not sell personal data.

Where reasonably necessary, we may share limited personal information with:

  • Agents, studios, producers, engineers, event organisers and other professionals involved in delivering a booking

These organisations only receive the information reasonably necessary for their role.

Cookies, analytics and embedded content

Our website uses essential technology required for security and normal operation.

It may also use analytics tools to help us understand website traffic and improve the site. Where consent is legally required, non-essential cookies should only be used after you have made a choice through the website’s cookie settings.

Pages may contain embedded content from third parties, including YouTube. When you play or interact with embedded content, the third-party provider may receive technical information about your device and visit and may use its own cookies.

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how parts of the website work.

International processing

Some service providers used for email, online meetings, remote recording, file transfer, cloud storage, analytics or embedded content may process information outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal data is transferred internationally, we expect the relevant provider to use an approved transfer mechanism or other appropriate safeguards required by UK data-protection law.

How long we keep information

We keep personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary.

In general:

  • Enquiries that do not result in a booking may be retained for up to two years

  • Client correspondence, contracts, project records and delivery information may normally be retained for up to six years after the working relationship ends

  • Invoices and accounting records are retained for the period required by UK tax and company law

  • Marketing contact details are retained until you opt out or they are no longer relevant

  • Recordings and project files may be retained where necessary to document agreed usage, maintain a professional archive or provide future services to the client

Information may be kept longer where reasonably necessary for an ongoing contractual, legal, tax or dispute-related purpose.

Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against loss, misuse, unauthorised access or disclosure.
