Please contact us at info@oxfordscientificfilms.tv if you would like to know more about these agreements or receive a copy of them.

We will usually delete your personal information at the end of that period.
Do you need my consent to include me in a programme?
There are circumstances in which we can make programmes about an individual without their consent provided we comply with the relevant laws and regulatory codes, such as the Ofcom Broadcasting Code.
We do not generally rely on obtaining your consent to process your personal data to make a programme in which you appear. This is something which we do as part of our legitimate business interests, as explained above.

What do we do with children’s personal information?
We are committed to protecting the privacy of children aged under 18 years old. If you are aged 17 or under‚ please get your parent/guardian’s permission beforehand whenever you provide us with any personal information. We will take reasonable steps to verify this by contacting your parent or guardian to confirm their consent.
Who else do we share your data with?
Your information will be used by the relevant production team for the purposes of making the programme. It may also be shared internally with the Business Affairs team to prepare contractual documentation or provide legal advice, and with any other ITV teams involved in commercial exploitation such as the finance teams where a payment is required, and the Health and Safety and Insurance teams (and their respective advisors) if their advice is required.
We may pass your information to our third party service providers such as agents, subcontractors, ticket providers and other associated organisations for the purposes of facilitating your application, entry or enquiry or nomination for the programme you are interested in taking part in. However, when we use third party service providers, we disclose only those elements of your information that are necessary to deliver the required service.
Please be reassured that we will not otherwise share your information further, unless:
? we are required to do so by law, for example by a court order or for the purposes of prevention of fraud or other crime; or
? we are asked to by competent regulatory, prosecuting and other governmental agencies, or litigation counterparties, in any country or territory; or
? for the purposes of prevention of fraud or other crime.
Sending your personal information internationally
We may transfer your personal data to other members of our group, and to third party service providers outside of the European Economic Area, which do not have similarly strict data protection and privacy laws.
Where we transfer personal data to other members of our group, or our service providers, we have put in place data transfer agreements and safeguards using European Commission approved terms. Please contact us at info@oxfordscientificfilms.tv if you would like to know more about these agreements or receive a copy of them.
Where this happens, we will ensure that adequate security and safeguards are in place to appropriately protect your information.
How long do you keep my information?
We do not retain your information for longer than necessary for the purpose it was collected.
? We keep your personal data for as long as it is required by us for our legitimate business purposes, to perform our contractual obligations, or where longer, such longer period as is required by law or regulatory obligations which apply to us.
? In general we keep your information only for the period we have legal rights to exploit the programme that your information relates to, but we have included some exceptions to that rule above.
We will usually delete your personal information at the end of that period.
Do you need my consent to include me in a programme?
There are circumstances in which we can make programmes about an individual without their consent provided we comply with the relevant laws and regulatory codes, such as the Ofcom Broadcasting Code.
We do not generally rely on obtaining your consent to process your personal data to make a programme in which you appear. This is something which we do as part of our legitimate business interests, as explained above.
Where you have entered into a contract with us to participate in our programmes, we may be entitled to show the programme whether or not you later change your mind about participation.

Please contact info@oxfordscientificfilms.tv for more information on your rights and how to use them,
Access to my data
You can request access to the information we hold on you and we will also tell you:
? why we are processing it;
? who are we sharing it with and if any information is transferred to a country not deemed to have adequate protections in place for personal data;
? how long will we be keeping your data;
? the source of the information, if it was not collected directly from you;
? if we are using your data for automated decision making or profiling.
If you are making a request for a copy of your personal data that we are processing, please be as specific as possible as this will both help us to identify the information more quickly and provide you with a copy without any undue delay.
Rectifying inaccuracies
If you feel the information we hold on you is inaccurate or incomplete, you can ask us to correct or update it.
Right to be forgotten
You can also request that we erase your information in certain circumstances, although that might not always be possible if doing so means we cannot perform our contract with you, or we have a legal obligation or legitimate interest to keep the data. We will explain the consequences of erasing your data.
Restrict the processing
If you feel we are processing your information unlawfully or with inaccurate data, you can ask us to restrict any further processing. Where personal information is subjected to restriction in this way we will only process it with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims unless we have your consent. Please note that even if the processing is restricted, we will continue to store the data.
Object to the processing
If you disagree with any legitimate interest or public interest we have relied upon to process your data, you can object to the processing. We will then stop processing the data unless we can demonstrate a compelling legitimate ground that overrides your rights (e.g. exercising or defend a legal claim).
Data Portability
You can request to receive personal data that you have provided to us in a commonly used format and request that we transmit it to another data controller where feasible, or to you directly.
Make a complaint
We are committed to safeguarding your data and upholding your rights, but if you feel we have not done that, please write to Viewers Services, Oxford Scientific Films, 21 Berners Street, London, W1T 3LP. Additionally you have the right to complain to the relevant supervisory authority, which in the UK is the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).
