This personal data will be held and used for as long as necessary for legitimate business purposes and no longer than the timeframe permitted by regulation and current law.

Our website, applications (including mobile applications) and services may contain technology that enables us to:

In addition to the purposes described in this section, we may also use personal data that we gather to deliver targeted advertising, marketing or personalised services to you which we believe may be useful, based on your use of the website, applications or services or any other personal date we have about you. Sections 3 and 4 of this Policy Notice provide further details on how we will do this.

Depending on the websites, applications or services, you may be able to configure these features to suit your preferences.

We may monitor and record our communications with you, including e-mails and phone conversations. Personal data which we collect may then be used for training purposes, quality assurance, to record details about our website, applications and services you order from us or ask us about, and in order to meet our legal and regulatory obligations generally.

We may obtain personal data through mobile applications that you or your users install on their mobile devices to access and use our website, applications or services or which you or your users use to provide other services related to that mobile application (for example, to sync personal data from our application or service with such mobile application).

Mobile applications may provide us with personal data related to a user’s use of that mobile application and use of our applications and services accessed using that mobile application. We may use such personal data to provide and improve the mobile application or our own application or services. For example, activity undertaken within a mobile application may be logged.

You can configure our mobile application’s privacy settings on your device but this may affect the performance of that mobile application and the way it interacts with our applications and services.

We may periodically ask that you review your data to ensure that the information we hold is correct. We will not do this if you have asked us not to communicate with you.

If you withdraw your consent to the use of your personal data for purposes set out in our Privacy Notice, we may not be able to provide you with access to all or parts of our websites, applications, and services.

We will retain your personal data for the duration of our business relationship and afterwards for as long as is necessary and relevant for our legitimate business purposes, in accordance with the Hollywood Babes Data Retention and Destruction Policy or as otherwise permitted applicable laws and regulation.

6. Changes to our privacy notice

We may change our Privacy Notice from time to time. However we will not reduce your rights under this Privacy Notice. We will always update this Privacy Notice on our website, so please try to read it when you visit the website (the ‘last updated’ reference tells you when we last updated our Privacy Notice). Previous versions of our privacy notice are available on request from The Company Secretary,

Should we make changes to our privacy notice, we may inform you of these.

7. Security and storage of personal data

We will keep your personal data secure by taking appropriate technical and organisational measures against its unauthorised or unlawful processing and against its accidental loss, destruction or damage. We will do our best to protect your personal data but we cannot guarantee the security of your personal data which is transmitted to our website, applications or services or to other website, applications and services via any medium that you provide information to use. If we have given you (or you have chosen) a password to access certain areas of our websites, applications or services please keep this password safe – we will never intentionally share this password with anyone.

Personal data that we process for any of the purposes outlined above shall not be kept for longer than we believe is necessary for those purposes.

8. Transfers outside of the European Economic Area

Personal data in the European Union is protected by data protection laws but other countries do not necessarily protect your personal data in the same way.

Our website may be hosted outside of the EEA (which means all the EU countries plus Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein) (“EEA”) and this means that we may transfer personal data which is submitted by you through the website or the application or service outside the EEA. When you send an email to us, this will also be stored on our email servers which are hosted in the United Kingdom.

We may use service providers based outside of the EEA to help us provide our website, applications and services to you (for example, platform and payment providers who help us deliver our applications and services, provide advertising services or execute your payments) and this means that we may transfer your personal data to service providers outside the EEA for the purpose of providing our applications, advertising and services to you.

We take steps to ensure that where your personal data is transferred outside of the EEA by our service providers and hosting providers, appropriate measures and controls are in place to protect that personal data in accordance with applicable data protection laws and regulations. For example, we may share personal data with our group companies based outside the EEA for the purposes envisaged by this Privacy Notice. Hollywood Babes are subject to protection policies designed to protect data in accordance with EU data protection laws. In all cases, data transfers are made in accordance with the requirements of Regulations (EU) 2016/679 (the General Data Protection Regulations or “GDPR”) and may be based on the use of the European Commission’s Standard Model Clauses for transfers of personal data outside the EEA.

By using our website, products or services or by interacting with us in the ways described in this Privacy Notice, you consent to the transfer of your personal data outside the EEA in the circumstances set out in this Privacy Notice. If you do not want your personal data to be transferred outside the EEA you should not use our website, applications or services.

9. Other sites and social media

If you follow a link from our website, application or service to another site or service, not within hollywoodbabes.co.uk, this notice will no longer apply. We are not responsible for the personal data handling practices of third party sites or services and we encourage you to read the privacy notices appearing on those sites or services.

Our websites, applications or services may enable you to share personal data with social media sites, or use social media sites to create your account or to connect your social media account. Those social media sites may automatically provide us with access to certain personal data retained by them about you (for example any content you have viewed). You should be able to manage your privacy settings from within your own third party social media account(s) to manage what personal data you enable us to access from that account.
