User Rights

Your Rights

You may have rights to access, correct, delete, or object to certain processing of your personal data, and to request restriction in appropriate cases. Where consent is used, it may be withdrawn for future processing.

Available rights depend on the nature of the data and the legal basis for processing.
Requests

Making a Request

To make a privacy request, provide enough information for us to identify the relevant records and understand the request. We may ask for additional details where needed to protect your information and respond accurately.

Requests are assessed against identity, scope, and legal retention requirements before action is taken.
Data Retention

Data Retention

We retain personal data for the period needed to manage enquiries, quotations, bookings, event preparation, delivery, setup, accounting, and dispute handling. When data is no longer required, we delete it or anonymise it where that is appropriate.

Records are kept only for as long as needed for the relevant purpose or legal requirement.
Policy Updates

Policy Changes

If we make material changes, we will update the policy text and may also provide a notice through the website or other suitable communication method. The date of the latest revision should be checked before relying on this policy.

We review this policy from time to time and keep the current version on the website.
