The Blueprint form

To download the Blueprint you give us your first and last name, email address, phone number, city and country, and you tick a box agreeing to be contacted about your film. We record the date and time you ticked it.

We use it for two things: sending you the document, and contacting you about your film. The exchange is stated on the form, and it is the only one.

Lawful basis: your consent, which you gave on the form and can withdraw at any time.

Enquiries

If you email us — including a discovery call enquiry — we keep your message, your email address and whatever you tell us about your film, so that we can reply and arrange any conversation.

Lawful basis: our legitimate interest in replying to people who write to us.

Existing service records

Where you have previously paid us for a service, the payment was taken by our transaction provider (Stripe) and we never saw or stored your card details. We keep your email address, your name if it was collected, and the identifiers the transaction provider gave us for that transaction, so that what you paid for can be honoured. If you sent us times for a call, we keep the times, your time zone and your film title for as long as it takes to arrange and hold the call.

Lawful basis: performance of a contract — you paid for something and we have to deliver it.

Submitting a film

What you send through the submission form — your details, the film's details, screener links — is used to consider the film and to reply to you. It is emailed to us.

Lawful basis: our legitimate interest in considering films offered to us, and in replying to people who write to us.

Who else sees it

Three processors, and nobody else:

• Stripe — our transaction provider for existing service records. They handled any card details, not us.
• Google — the email account we correspond from, and where submissions are delivered.
• Replit — where this website and its database are hosted.

We do not sell your details, rent them, or pass them to anyone for their own marketing. There is no advertising network on this site.

Cookies

This site sets no cookies of its own and runs no analytics.

How long we keep it

Blueprint and enquiry details are kept until you ask us to delete them, or until we have had no contact with you for three years, whichever comes first.

Records of past payments are kept for seven years, because tax law requires it. That is the one thing we cannot delete on request while the period is running.

Your rights

You can ask for a copy of what we hold, ask us to correct it, ask us to delete it, or withdraw consent to being contacted. Email sales@dawsonagents.com and it will be done — you do not need to give a reason and it does not cost anything.

If you are unhappy with how we have handled it, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
