Jason Venus Data Protection & Privacy Notice

At jasonvenus.co.uk, protecting your digital privacy is as important to me as the art I create. This notice explains how I manage your personal data when you interact with my website, commission creative work, or join my community.

1. Data I Collect and How
I only collect information that is necessary to provide high-quality creative services.
  • Direct Interaction: When you inquire about a project or sign up for updates, I collect your name, email address, and any project-specific details you share.
  • Technical Data: Like most modern sites, I use essential cookies to ensure my portfolio and animations display correctly. I also collect anonymous analytics to understand how visitors interact with my work.
  • Payment Information: For digital product sales, payments are processed through secure third-party gateways; I do not store your full card details on my servers.
2. How Your Information is Used
Your data is used strictly for professional purposes under the lawful basis of contract or legitimate interests:
  • Project Management: To communicate regarding commissions, deliver digital files, and manage billing.
  • Service Improvement: To refine my website’s user experience based on traffic patterns.
  • Marketing (Optional): If you have explicitly opted in, I may send updates about new projects, tutorials, or software developments like Scribbleo. You can opt out at any time.
3. Sharing and Disclosures
I do not sell your data. Information is only shared with trusted service providers who help me operate (e.g., email platforms or secure payment processors).
  • International Transfers: Some service providers may be based outside the UK/EEA. I ensure they meet UK adequacy standards to keep your data safe.
  • Legal Requirements: I will only disclose information to authorities if required by law or to protect my legal rights.
4. Security and Retention
  • Protection: I use industry-standard encryption and security protocols to prevent unauthorised access.
  • Retention: I only keep your data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined above (e.g., for the duration of a project and a reasonable period thereafter for tax and accounting purposes).
5. Your Rights
Under UK Data Protection law, you have the right to:
  1. Request a copy of the data I hold about you.
  2. Ask me to correct or delete your information.
  3. Object to or restrict my processing of your data.
To exercise these rights, please contact me directly at hello@jasonvenus.co.uk.
6. Cookies
I use cookies to enhance your experience. You can manage your preferences or find more information on how to disable them via the ICO’s cookie guidance.
