Who we are and our role as data controller
newsfolixe operates this website as a commercial provider of news production resources focused on editorial flow, including newsroom planning, studio reports, camera setup and clear workflows for media teams. We are the data controller for personal data processed through this site. Our registered address is The Point, 37 North Wharf Road, Paddington, London, W2 1AF, United Kingdom.
Scope of this notice
This policy applies to all visitors to the site, including individuals who submit enquiries via the contact form, register for resources or otherwise interact with our services. It covers processing of personal data under UK GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018 and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations.
Categories of personal data and sources
We collect data directly from you when you use the contact form or access resources. This may include name, email address, organisation and any message content you provide. We also receive technical data such as IP address, browser type and usage patterns from your device and interactions with the site.
Purposes of processing and legal bases
We process data to respond to enquiries submitted through the contact form on the basis of legitimate interest and, where consent is required, on the basis of consent. We maintain service functionality and security on the basis of legitimate interest. Where you opt in to receive updates about our resources, processing occurs on the basis of consent. Each purpose is explained separately so you can understand exactly how your information is used.
Whether providing data is required
Supplying contact details through the form is voluntary, yet failure to provide them will prevent us from responding to your enquiry. Technical data is collected automatically when you visit the site; disabling cookies may limit certain functionalities but will not stop basic access.
Cookies and similar technologies
The site uses cookies and similar technologies for essential operation, performance measurement and preference storage. A site-wide cookie banner allows you to manage non-essential cookies. Full details are set out in our Cookie Policy, which you should read alongside this notice.
Processors, recipients and disclosures required by law
We engage service providers such as hosting companies, analytics platforms and email delivery services that act as processors under contract. We may disclose data when required by law, court order or to protect legal rights. Categories of recipients include IT support providers and regulatory authorities where necessary.
International transfers
Some processors may be located outside the United Kingdom. In such cases we rely on UK adequacy regulations or standard contractual clauses approved by the Information Commissioner’s Office to ensure appropriate safeguards.
Retention periods
Enquiry data is retained for up to two years after the last contact to allow follow-up and record keeping. Technical logs are kept for twelve months for security and analytics purposes. Data is deleted or anonymised once the retention period expires unless a longer period is required by law.
Security and data-minimisation practices
We apply technical and organisational measures appropriate to the risk, including encryption in transit, access controls and regular reviews of data handling. We collect only the data necessary for the stated purposes and do not retain it longer than needed.
Your data subject rights
Under UK GDPR you have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection. You may exercise these rights by contacting us at [email protected]. We will respond within one month, subject to any extensions permitted by law.
Right to withdraw consent and object to direct marketing
Where processing relies on consent you may withdraw it at any time by using the unsubscribe link in communications or by writing to [email protected]. You may also object to direct marketing at any time; we will cease such processing upon receipt of your objection.
Right to complain to the supervisory authority
If you believe your data has been processed unlawfully you may lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office, the UK supervisory authority. Contact details are available on the ICO website.
Children and age restrictions
The site is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals below this age. If we become aware that such data has been collected we will delete it promptly.
Automated decision-making and profiling
We do not engage in automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects. Any analytics we perform are used only for service improvement and do not result in automated decisions about individuals.
Changes to this policy
We review this policy regularly and will update it when our practices change or when legal requirements require. The date of the most recent update appears at the top of the page. Continued use of the site after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
Contacting us
For any questions about this policy or to exercise your rights please write to [email protected] or The Point, 37 North Wharf Road, Paddington, London, W2 1AF, United Kingdom. We aim to handle all requests fairly and within the timescales set by law.
