TPL also own and produce projects under the sub brand, The Cosmic Shambles Network (CSN). The terms “TPL”, “CSN”, “we”, “us”, “our” or the “Websites” refer to Trunkman Productions Limited and/or to The Cosmic Shambles Network.

The terms “you” and “your” refer to any user or viewer of our Websites.

  • what information may be collected about you through your interaction with the Websites, how it may be used and when;
  • the different legal grounds TPL have for processing your data;
  • how we secure your personal information;
  • when TPL may disclose your personal information to anyone else;

As set out above, TPL is committed to safeguarding your personal information, so please take a minute to read this Privacy Policy, and our Website Terms of Use.

What information will TPL collect about me?
The personal information we collect might include your name, address, email address, IP address, and information regarding what pages are accessed by you and when. If you make a donation to our Patreon account online via the CSN website or purchase something from us, your card information is not held by TPL, it is collected by relevant third-party payment processors, who specialise in the secure online capture and processing of credit/debit card transactions, as explained below. The same is true of making a donation to the Stay at Home Festival which uses PayPal and the Stripe payment gateways.

How does TPL collect information from me?
TPL may obtain information about you when you use our Websites, for example, when you contact us about products and services, leave a comment on our Websites, or if you register to receive our e-newsletters.

How will TPL use the information they collect about me?

TPL may use your personal information for a number of purposes including the following:

  • to carry out any legal obligations arising from any contracts entered into by you and TPL;
  • to carry out our legal rights;
  • to notify you of changes to our Services;
  • to process product orders or requests for services or information;
  • to seek your views or comments on the services we provide and tailor our website;
  • to send you communications which you have requested.

What is TPL’s legal basis for collecting my personal information?
Whenever you provide personal information, we’re legally obliged to treat this information in line with all laws concerning the protection of personal information, including the EU Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC, the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (“GDPR”) when in force, the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003 and all applicable laws and regulations relating to the processing of personal data and privacy which may relate to you including where applicable, any guidance notes and codes of practice issued by the European Commission and applicable national regulators (including where relevant, the UK Information Commissioner). These laws are referred to collectively in this Privacy Policy as the “Data Protection Laws”. 

Where we need to use your personal information to notify you of changes to our Services, send you communications about TPL or CSN, seek your views or comments, or contact you to answer your requests for services or information, we do so on the grounds of it being in our legitimate interests to do so.

Where we need to use your personal information to fulfil our legal obligations, enforce our legal rights or fulfil your product orders, we do so on the grounds of fulfilling our legal obligations.

Will TPL share my personal information with anyone else?
From time to time we may work with various third-party product providers to offer you products and services that you might be interested in. When you enquire about or purchase one or more of these products, the relevant third-party product provider might use your details to provide you with information and carry out their obligations arising from any contracts you’ve entered into with them. In some cases, they may be acting as a data controller of your information and therefore you should read their separate Privacy policies.  These third-party product providers will share your information with us which we will use in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

We may also transfer your personal information to a third party if we’re under a duty to disclose or share your personal data in order to comply with any legal obligation (such as a court order) or to enforce or apply our terms of use or to protect the rights, property or safety of our customers. However, we’ll take steps with the aim of ensuring that your privacy rights continue to be protected.

Transferring your personal data outside the EEA

TPL stores data on a local server in the UK and on its Dropbox account, which may be outside of the EEA. We may therefore transfer your data outside of the EEA in connection with our business purposes. Where this may occur we have agreements in place with third parties that the data may be transferred to that they will act lawfully, treating the data in compliance with their GDPR obligations and ensuring its security.

Links to other websites
The Websites may contain links to other websites run by other organisations. This Privacy Policy applies only to the TPL and CSN websites‚ and to the use of your personal information that may be obtained through your interaction with the TPL or CSN sites, not to the collection, processing or use of it by any third parties who may collect it when you visit or communicate with them. We do not monitor, control or endorse the privacy policies and practices of other sites, and we cannot be responsible for them, even if you access them using links from our Websites. We therefore recommend that you check the privacy policies of those third-party sites.

How will TPL ask for my consent?
Where the use of your personal information requires your consent, we will contact you first. You have a choice about whether or not you wish to receive information from us and we will only contact you about the information you have requested via your preferences and given your consent to receive. If you do not want to receive any communications we may ask to send you from time to time, then you can select your choices by ticking the relevant boxes situated on the form on which we would ask to collect your information, at the time we ask to collect it.

Should we wish to use your personal information for any other reason not listed above, we will explain what we intend to do with it and the basis for doing so.

Our search function on the CSN website is powered by Divi by Elegant Themes. No user specific information is collected when using this function and it only works within the CSN site, it is not connected to Google or other search engines.

We use a third party provider, Mailchimp, to deliver our e-newsletters to you. We gather statistics around email opening and clicks using industry standard technologies to help us monitor and improve our e-newsletter. For more information, please see Mailchimp’s privacy notice.

How long will TPL keep my personal information?
We review our retention periods for personal information on a regular basis. We will hold your personal information on our systems only for as long as is necessary for the relevant activity, or as long as is set out in any relevant contract you hold with us, and in accordance with Data Protection Laws.

How can I find out what personal information TPL holds about me?
Under the Data Protection Laws you have the right to request a copy of the personal information TPL holds about you and to have any inaccuracies corrected. (We will require you to prove your identity with 2 pieces of approved photographic identification). We will use reasonable efforts to supply, correct or delete personal information about you on our files if requested.

Security
When you give us personal information, we will take all reasonable organisational and technical measures to ensure that it’s treated securely and protected from loss, misuse, disclosure, unauthorised modifications. Any and all individuals at TPL who process your personal information are obliged to respect the confidentiality of this information at all times.

  • Persistent cookies are saved on your device for a fixed period of time after the browser has closed and are activated each time you visit the website where the cookie was generated.

How does TPL use cookies and how do I opt out?
We, together with trusted third parties, use cookies for the following purposes:

  1. Essential and Functional Cookies

Essential or ‘Strictly Necessary’ Cookies
These are cookies which are essential for the running of our Websites. Without these cookies, parts of our Websites would not function.  These cookies do not track where you have been on the internet and do not gather information about you that could be used for marketing purposes.

Functional Cookies
Functional cookies are used to remember your preferences on our Websites and to provide enhanced, more personal features. The information collected by these cookies is usually anonymised, so we cannot identify you personally.  Functional cookies do not track your internet usage or gather information which could be used for selling advertising.

We use these cookies on our Websites to enable certain online functionality including:

  • identify returning users
  • eliminating the need for returning users to re-enter their WordPress login details to leave comments.

If you would prefer to disable essential and functional cookies, please refer to your browser or device settings.

  1. Analytical Performance Cookies
    Analytical performance cookies are used to monitor the performance of our Websites, for example, to determine the number of page views and the number of unique users a website has.  Web analytics services may be designed and operated by third parties.  The information provided by these cookies allows us to analyse patterns of user behaviour and we use that information to enhance user experience or identify areas of our Websites which may require maintenance.  By using web analytics services provided by Google Analytics we can analyse which pages are viewed and how long for and which links are followed, and we can use this information to provide more content which is of interest.  We also use this analysis to report on our performance.

The information is anonymous (i.e. it cannot be used to identify you and does not contain personal information such as your name and email address) and it is only used for statistical purposes.

If you would prefer to disable essential and functional cookies, please refer to your browser or device settings.

  1. Behavioural Advertising Cookies

TPL does not use this type of cookies on our Websites but in the interests of providing you with full information about cookies, behavioural advertising cookies, (which may be placed on your device by an organisation whose site you visit, or their trusted third-party service providers) remember that you have visited a website and use that information to provide you with advertising which is tailored to your interests.

When you visit a page with content embedded from, for example, YouTube, Twitter or Facebook, these third-party service providers may set their own cookies on your device. TPL does not control the use of these third-party cookies and cannot access them due to the way that cookies work, as cookies can only be accessed by the party who originally set them. Please check the third-party websites for more information about these cookies.
