This notice explains how Eclectic Art Studio collects and uses personal data when you visit this site. We are the data controller for any information this portal gathers, and we take that responsibility seriously. If you have questions after reading this, you can reach us at [email protected].
Who is responsible for your data
Eclectic Art Studio is the controller of the personal data collected through this website. We decide what is collected, why it is collected and how it is stored. If at any point you want to know more about how we handle your information, the contact address above is the right place to start.
What reaches us
We collect two broad categories of information. The first is data you hand over directly — for example, your name and email address if you write to us. The second is data we observe automatically when you visit: your IP address, browser type, the pages you look at and how long you spend on them. We do not ask for, and have no interest in, sensitive personal data such as financial details or identity documents.
Who else sees it
We use a small number of third-party processors to keep this site running — analytics tools and hosting providers, for instance. These processors handle data on our behalf and under our instructions. They do not receive more than they need for their specific function, and we do not sell personal data to anyone.
If a transfer of data outside the UK or European Economic Area is ever necessary, we ensure an appropriate safeguard is in place, such as standard contractual clauses approved by the relevant authority.
Your UK GDPR rights
Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation and the Data Protection Act 2018, you have a meaningful set of rights over your personal data. You can exercise any of them by writing to us at [email protected].
- Access — you can ask for a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Rectification — if something is inaccurate, you can ask us to correct it.
- Erasure — in certain circumstances you can ask us to delete your data.
- Restriction — you can ask us to limit how we use your data while a query is resolved.
- Objection — where we rely on legitimate interests as a lawful basis, you can object to the processing.
- Portability — where technically feasible, you can ask for your data in a commonly used, machine-readable format.
If you are not satisfied with how we handle a request, you have the right to complain to the supervisory authority in the UK: the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.
How long it is kept
We keep personal data only for as long as there is a genuine reason to do so. Correspondence you send us is retained until the matter is resolved and for a reasonable period afterwards in case you follow up. Automatically collected analytics data is held for a shorter period and then aggregated or deleted. When data is no longer needed, we delete it or anonymise it securely.
Children and under-18s
This site is not aimed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If you believe a child has submitted information through this portal, please contact us at [email protected] and we will remove it promptly.
Changes to this notice
We may update this privacy policy from time to time — for example, if we change the tools we use or if our legal obligations change. The current version is always the one on this page. If the changes are significant, we will make that clear at the top of the notice.
This page is published for information purposes only. We do not sell any goods or services through this portal.
