Privacy Policy

How we collect, use and protect your personal data — and the rights you have over it.

This Privacy Policy describes how Wayne Cutajar ("we", "us") collects, uses and protects your personal data when you use this site. We are committed to protecting your privacy and to complying with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable local data protection law.

Data controller

We are the data controller responsible for your personal data collected through this site. For any data protection enquiries, contact us at cutajarwayne92@gmail.com.

What data we collect

Partnership enquiries

When you submit a partnership enquiry form, we collect your name, company, email address, phone number, and any message or brief you provide. This information is used solely to respond to your enquiry.

Newsletter

If you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address (and optionally your name) so we can send you updates and content.

Technical data

Like most websites, we may collect technical data such as your IP address, browser type, and pages visited. This is used to keep the site secure and, where you have consented, to understand how the site is used.

Legal basis for processing

We process your personal data on the following legal bases:

  • Consent — when you submit an enquiry, subscribe to the newsletter, or consent to optional cookies. You can withdraw consent at any time.
  • Legitimate interests — to respond to your enquiry and to maintain the security and functionality of the site.

How we use your data

  • To respond to enquiries.
  • To send newsletter content where you have subscribed.
  • To maintain and improve the site and its content.
  • To meet legal and regulatory obligations.

Data retention

We retain personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes described above. Enquiry data is retained for a reasonable period for record purposes. Newsletter data is retained until you unsubscribe.

Your rights

Under the GDPR, you have the following rights over your personal data:

  • Access — to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Rectification — to have inaccurate or incomplete data corrected.
  • Erasure — to request that your personal data be deleted.
  • Restriction — to request that we limit the processing of your data.
  • Portability — to receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
  • Objection — to object to the processing of your data.
  • Withdrawal of consent — to withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at cutajarwayne92@gmail.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

Sharing of data

We do not sell your personal data. We may share data with service providers who help us operate the site (such as hosting and email providers), who process data on our behalf and under our instructions. These providers are bound by confidentiality and data protection obligations.

Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure.

Updates to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
