This notice explains how we handle your data when you take part in a programme we are producing. It includes the additional information at the end of the document (“Additional Information”) where we explain what we mean by “personal data”, “processing”, “special category data” and other terms used in the notice. This notice does not create contractual rights or obligations and may be amended by us at any time.
1. The data we hold and why we process it
We process data for the purposes of running our business including for production, broadcasting, distribution and marketing. The Additional Information section provides more specific information on these purposes, on the type of data that may be processed and on the grounds on which we process data.
2. Where the data comes from and who we share it with.
Some of the personal data that we process about you comes from you, which can include your name, age and email address. Other personal data about you is generated in the course of you taking part in the production and providing interviews and other filming contributions. It may be seen by our staff and contractors who are working on the production and we may also pass your data outside the organisation, for example for broadcast of the Programme itself, distribution and marketing purposes.
3. How long do we keep your personal data for?
We do not keep your personal data for any specific period but will not keep it for longer than is necessary for our purposes. In general, we will keep your personal data for so long as you take part in a production and for a period afterwards as we may need to refer to production paperwork and programme rushes for the purposes of programme compliance and legal reasons.
4. Transferring data outside the EEA.
We may transfer your personal data outside the EEA where we have a foreign server storage provider. If you featured in a production, the data constituting your performance may be transferred out of the EEA for programme broadcast, distribution and marketing purposes.
5. Your rights
You have a right to make a subject access request to receive information about the data that we process about you, as set out in the Additional Information.
6. Contact
In processing your personal data, we act as a data controller and our main point of contact for data-related matters is Audrey English.
Additional Information
1. Terminology
“personal data” is information relating to you that identifies you and includes not only facts about you, but also intentions and opinions about you.
Personal Data includes information held on, or relating to use of, a computer, laptop, mobile phone or similar device. It covers data derived from equipment such as access passes within a building, data on use of vehicles and sound and image data such as CCTV. It also covers video, audio and images captured as part of a production.
"processing" means doing anything with the data, for example, it includes collecting it, holding it, disclosing it and deleting it.
“special category data” is Personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, health, sexual orientation, sex life, trade union membership and genetic and biometric data are subject to special protection and considered by EU privacy law to be “special category data”.
References in the Contributor Privacy Notice to work or services (and similar expressions) include any arrangement we may have under which an individual provides us services in relation to a production. We use the word “you” to refer to anyone within the scope of the notice.
2. Legal grounds for processing Personal Data

3. Processing Special category data

5. Where data comes from
When you participate in one of our productions, the initial data about you that we process is likely to come from you: for example, contact details
6. Who gets to see your data
Internal use: Your personal data may be disclosed to our employees working on your production.
External use: We will only disclose your personal data outside our company if disclosure is consistent with a ground for processing on which we rely and doing so is lawful and fair to you. We may disclose your data if it is necessary for our legitimate interests as an organisation or the interests of a third party (but we will not do this if these interests are over-ridden by your interests and rights in particular to privacy).
Specific circumstances in which your personal data may be disclosed include:
- Disclosure to external recipients of electronic communications (such as emails) which contain your personal data.
- Disclosure of aggregated and anonymised diversity data to relevant regulators as part of a formal request.
- If you have an on-screen role, disclosure of footage, images, or audio recordings of you as part of the broadcasting, distribution and marketing of the production. Or, whether you have an on-screen or off-screen role, to allow us to credit your role.
7. Retaining your Personal Data
Although there is no specific period for which we will keep your personal data, we will not keep it for longer than is necessary for our purposes. In general, we will keep your personal data until the show has been produced and for a period afterwards. In considering how long to keep it, we will take into account its relevance to our business and your participation either as a record or in the event of a legal claim. Some data, such as production footage itself and credit information, will be kept indefinitely as we have an on-going legitimate interest in retaining the product.
8. Access to your Personal Data and other rights.
We try to be as open as we reasonably can about personal data that we process. If you would like specific information, just ask us.
You also have a legal right to make a “subject access request”. If you exercise this right and we hold personal data about you, we are required to provide you with information on it, including:
- Giving you a description and copy of the personal data
- Telling you why we are processing it
If you make a subject access request and there is any question about who you are, we may require you to provide information from which we can satisfy ourselves as to your identity.
As well as your subject access right, you may have a legal right to have your personal data rectified or erased, to object to its processing or to have its processing restricted. If you have provided us with data about yourself, for example your address, you have the right to be given the data in machine readable format for transmitting to another data controller. This only applies if the ground for processing is Consent.
If we have relied on consent as a ground for processing, you may withdraw consent at any time – though if you do so that will not affect the lawfulness of what we have done before you withdraw consent
9. Complaints
If you have complaints relating to our processing of your personal data, you should raise these with your key contact at the production in the first instance. You may also raise complaints with your statutory regulator. For contact and other details ask your key contact at the production.
