Who we are (data controller)

Holo Junkie

What we collect

  • Information you give us — name, email, phone, address, company, and any details you submit via enquiry, booking or checkout forms.
  • Information collected automatically — IP address, device/browser type, pages visited, referrer, and timestamps. Collected via cookies and similar technologies (see our Cookies policy).
  • Payment information — handled by our payment providers (e.g. PayPal, Stripe). We do not store full card details on our servers.

Why we use it (lawful basis)

  • To deliver services you've requested — enquiries, bookings, orders, support (contract).
  • To operate and improve our website — analytics, fraud prevention, security (legitimate interests).
  • To send marketing — only where you've given consent, and you can withdraw at any time.
  • To meet legal obligations — accounting, tax, regulatory requests.

Who we share it with

We only share personal data with:

  • Service providers who help us run the site (hosting, email, payment processing, analytics).
  • Accreditation or regulatory bodies where required to deliver a specific service (e.g. course registration).
  • Authorities where legally required.

We do not sell your personal data.

International transfers

Some of our providers (e.g. Google) may process data outside the UK. Where this happens, we rely on recognised safeguards such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or adequacy decisions.

How long we keep it

We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purpose it was collected, to meet legal/accounting obligations, or to defend legal claims. Typical retention: enquiries 2 years, customer records 7 years (HMRC), marketing lists until you unsubscribe.

  • Access a copy of your personal data
  • Correct inaccurate data
  • Request deletion (right to be forgotten)
