When you visit the website, certain technical information may also be collected automatically by our website platform or through cookies. This can include information such as your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited and information about how the website is used.
We do not take payments through this website and do not intentionally collect credit or debit card details, passwords or online account information through it.

We do not sell or rent your personal information.
 
OUR LAWFUL BASIS FOR USING YOUR INFORMATION
Data protection law requires us to have a lawful reason for using personal information.
Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on:
Legitimate interests — where it is reasonably necessary for us to respond to enquiries, communicate with people who contact us, operate our business, maintain our website or protect the security of our systems.
Contract — where the information is required in connection with a contract with you, or where you have asked us to take steps before entering into a contract.
Legal obligation — where we need to keep or use information to comply with a legal or regulatory requirement.
Consent — where we ask for your permission, for example in relation to certain non-essential cookies or similar technologies. Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw it at any time.
 
HOW LONG WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION
We keep personal information only for as long as we reasonably need it.
Enquiries and correspondence may be retained for as long as necessary to deal with the enquiry and to maintain appropriate business records.
Where correspondence relates to a production, contract, financial matter, dispute or legal obligation, we may need to retain it for longer.
We periodically review the information we hold and delete information that is no longer required.
 
WHO WE SHARE INFORMATION WITH
We do not routinely disclose personal information to third parties.
We may share limited information with companies that provide services necessary to operate our website or business, where they process that information on our behalf.
Our website is hosted using Wix. Wix may process technical information about visitors and information submitted through website forms as part of providing its hosting, security and website services.
We may also disclose personal information where:

• we are required to do so by law;

• it is necessary to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim;

• it is necessary to protect the rights, property or safety of Apex Pictures, our visitors or others; or

• you have asked or authorised us to do so.

We require service providers handling personal information on our behalf to protect that information appropriately.
 
INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS
Some of the companies that provide website or technology services to us may process information outside the United Kingdom.
Wix operates internationally and may process or store information in different countries.
Where personal information is transferred internationally, appropriate safeguards are used where required by data protection law to protect that information.
 
COOKIES
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies.
Some cookies are necessary for the website to work properly, including cookies used for security, network management and basic website functionality.
Other cookies or technologies may be used to understand how visitors use the website or in connection with third-party content.
Where consent is required for non-essential cookies, these should only be used after you have given your permission. You can change or withdraw your cookie choices through the cookie controls provided on the website, where available.
You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling some cookies may affect how parts of the website function.
 
EMBEDDED CONTENT AND THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES
Some pages on our website may contain video, social media content or other material provided by third-party platforms.
When you interact with this content, the third-party provider may receive technical information about your device or your use of its service and may use cookies or similar technologies.
Those services operate under their own privacy policies and are responsible for how they process information through their platforms.
Our website also contains links to external websites and social media services. Once you leave the Apex Pictures website, we are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those external sites.
 
KEEPING YOUR INFORMATION SECURE
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from loss, misuse, unauthorised access, disclosure or alteration.
Our website is hosted through Wix, which provides security measures as part of its platform and hosting services.
No method of transmitting or storing information online can be guaranteed to be completely secure, but we take appropriate steps to reduce the risks involved.

These rights are not absolute and may depend on why we hold the information and the circumstances of your request.
If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please contact us through the Contact page on this website or write to us at our registered office.
 
YOUR RIGHT TO OBJECT
Where we process your personal information because it is necessary for our legitimate interests, you have the right to object to that processing.
If you object, we will consider your request and whether there are compelling legitimate reasons for us to continue using the information.
You have an absolute right to object if personal information is being used for direct marketing.
