Privacy Notice

  1. Introduction

We take data protection seriously.

This privacy notice explains what personal data we may collect about you, why we collect it and how we may use it, and what rights you have in respect of your personal data.

We are a data controller in respect of your personal data. This means that we make decisions about how to use your personal data for our business, and we are legally responsible for those decisions.

We operate through other companies within our group, BDZ Investments Limited, BDZ Holdings Limited and Boomerang Creative Limited (collectively, “BDZ Group”), who may also become data controllers in respect of your personal data. The BDZ Group provides us with payroll and human resource services; accounting, legal and IT support; funding and payment services; electronic data storage; website hosting, creative design and marketing services.

This privacy notice also applies to the BDZ Group.

We’ll only use your personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other applicable laws. We’ll obtain your consent to our use of your personal data where it’s necessary or appropriate.
