It also details your rights under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.


Definitions and Interpretation

For the purposes of this Privacy Policy:

Controller refers to Stram Entertainment Ltd, the entity responsible for determining the purposes and means of processing your Personal Data.

Personal Data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. This includes names, email addresses, IP addresses, location data, or any other data that can directly or indirectly identify you.

Processing encompasses any operation performed on Personal Data, such as collection, recording, storage, modification, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure, erasure or destruction.

Service means our website and any associated online or mobile services, tools, applications or content.

You or Your refers to the individual using or accessing our Service, or the legal entity on whose behalf the individual is accessing the Service.


Legal Basis for Processing Personal Data

Under UK GDPR, we will process your Personal Data only when we have a lawful basis to do so. These bases include:

  • Consent: You have given us clear permission to use your Personal Data for a specific purpose, such as receiving marketing communications.
  • Performance of a contract: Processing is necessary to fulfil our contractual obligations to you, for instance, when we provide you with a service or product you requested.
  • Legal obligation: Processing is necessary to comply with a legal requirement, for example, record-keeping obligations under tax law.
  • Legitimate interests: We have a genuine business reason to process your data (e.g. improving our Service) and this interest is not outweighed by your rights and freedoms.

Before relying on legitimate interests, we conduct a balancing test to ensure your privacy interests are respected.
