Who we are and what this policy covers
Hello, we’re Wild in Art, we’re creative event producers. We’ve been delivering public art trails across the world’s towns and cities since 2008. This Privacy Policy applies to information that we collect about you when you use or sign up to:

Throughout this Privacy Policy we’ll refer to our websites, online shops, mobile applications and email newsletters collectively as “Services.” Below we explain how we collect, use, and share information about you, along with the choices that you have with respect to that information.
Please note that this Privacy Policy does not apply to any of our products or services that have a separate privacy policy.
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact us at marketing@wildinart.co.uk.

Sharing information
We do not sell our users’ private personal information. We share information about you in the limited circumstances spelled out below and with appropriate safeguards on your privacy:
Wild in Art Subsidiaries, Employees and Independent Contractors
We may disclose information about you to our subsidiaries, our employees, and individuals who are our independent contractors that need to know the information in order to help us provide our Services or to process the information on our behalf. We require our subsidiaries, employees, and independent contractors to follow this Privacy Policy for personal information that we share with them.
Third Party Vendors
We may share information about you with third party vendors who need to know information about you in order to provide their services to us. This group includes vendors that help us provide our Services to you (like payment providers that process your credit and debit card information) and those that help us understand and enhance our Services (like analytics providers). We require vendors to agree to privacy commitments in order to share information with them.
As Required by Law
We may disclose information about you in response to a subpoena, court order, or other governmental request. For more information on how we respond to requests for information about Wild in Art users, please see our Legal Guidelines.
Business Transfers
In connection with any merger, sale of company assets, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business by another company, or in the unlikely event that Wild in Art goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would likely be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. If any of these events were to happen, this Privacy Policy would continue to apply to your information and the party receiving your information may continue to use your information, but only consistent with this Privacy Policy.
With your consent
We may share and disclose information with your consent or at your direction. For example, within some of our mobile applications there is the option to submit your image and twitter handle to be featured on Ocean Outdoor’s Big Screens. By submitting your image and twitter handle you understand your image and twitter handle could be selected and shared with Ocean Outdoor and featured publicly on one or more of Ocean Outdoor’s public digital displays and shared on twitter by Wild in Art or associated event account.
In addition, we may periodically send marketing and promotional emails about new products, special offers or other information, which we think you may find interesting using the email address, which you have provided.
From time to time, we may also use your information to contact you for market research and event event evaluation purposes. We may contact you by email, phone, fax, or post. We may use the information to customise and enhance your online experience according to your interests.
Aggregated and Anonymised Information
We may share information that has been aggregated or reasonably de-identified, so that the information could not reasonably be used to identify you. For instance, we may publish aggregate statistics about the use of our Services.
Other Site Owners - Event Partners
Wild in Art work with Event Partners to deliver, maintain and manage our Services. If you have an online account your IP address and the email address associated with your account will be shared with the Event Partner administrator(s) of our websites and mobile applications. We require Event Partners to agree to privacy commitments in order to share information with them.
Information shared publicly
Information that you choose to make public is - you guessed it - disclosed publicly. That means, the public will see it and may use/share that content. You bear sole responsibility for the photos which you choose to post on the app. By posting photos, you are warranting that you have the permission and authority to do so.
In posting photos to the mobile application, you grant to Wild in Art and the event partner an irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free, non-exclusive, worldwide, transferable licence to publish, display, copy, modify, create derivative works from and distribute the photos on the service. You’re also granting us the licence to use the photos in any way for the purpose of publicising the service and to grant sub-licences on the same basis.
Public information may also be indexed by search engines or used by third parties. Please keep all of this in mind when deciding what you would like to share.
Storing information
International Data Transfers
Information that we collect may be stored and processed in and transferred between any of the countries in which we operate in order to enable us to use the information in accordance with this privacy policy.
Information which you provide may be transferred to countries including the United States, Japan, which do not have data protection laws equivalent to those in force in the European Economic Area.
You expressly agree to such transfers of personal information.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our site; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.
We will not store data any longer than is necessary. If a subscriber hasn’t actively engaged with us for 3 years, we will remove them from our mailing list.
How long do we keep your personal information
We keep your personal information to enable your continued use of our Services, for as long as it is required in order to fulfil the relevant purposes described in this privacy policy, as may be required by law such as for tax and accounting purposes, or as otherwise communicated to you. For example;
Email Newsletters – if a subscriber hasn’t actively engaged with us for 3 years, they will be moved to an archive folder before being deleted permanently.
Online Transactions – we retain your transaction history so that you can review past purchases (and repeat orders if desired) and what addresses you have shipped orders to, and to improve the relevancy of products and content we recommend.
Mobile Application– we retain your personal data in order to identify your account and communicate with you if you require support. If you submit your photo and twitter handle you grant Wild in Art and an irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free, non-exclusive, worldwide, transferable licence to publish, display, copy, modify, create derivative works from and distribute the photos on the service. You’re also granting us the licence to use the photos in any way for the purpose of publicising the service and to grant sub-licences on the same basis.
Security
We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. In order to prevent unauthorised access or disclosure, we will take reasonable technical and organisational precautions to safeguard and secure the information we collect online. Of course, data transmission over the internet is inherently insecure, and we cannot guarantee the security of data sent over the internet. You are responsible for keeping your password and user details confidential. We will not ask you for your password (except when you log in to the website).
Choices
You have several choices available when it comes to information about you:
Limit the Information that You Provide
If you have an account with us, you can choose not to provide the optional account information, profile information, and transaction and billing information. Please keep in mind that if you do not provide this information, certain features of our Services, for example paid products, may not be accessible.
Limit Access to Information On Your Mobile Device
Your mobile device operating system should provide you with the ability to discontinue our ability to collect stored information or location information via our mobile apps. If you do so, you may not be able to use certain features (like showing your location or uploading a photograph, for example).
Opt-Out of Electronic Communications
You may opt out of receiving promotional messages from us. Just follow the instructions in those messages. If you opt out of promotional messages, we may still send you other messages, like those about your account and legal notices.
Set Your Browser to Reject Cookies
At this time, Wild in Art does not respond to “do not track” signals across all of our Services. However, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove or reject browser cookies before using Wild in Art’s websites, with the drawback that certain features of Wild in Art’s websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
If you believe that any information we are holding on you is incorrect or incomplete, please email us at marketing@wildinart.co.uk. We will promptly correct any information found to be incorrect.
You may instruct us to provide you with any personal information we hold about you under the Data Protection Act 2018. Provision of such information will be subject to:
(a) the payment of a fee (currently fixed at £10.00); and
(b) the supply of appropriate evidence of your identity (for this purpose, we will usually accept a photocopy of your passport certified by a solicitor or bank plus an original copy of a utility bill showing your current address).
We may withhold such personal information to the extent permitted by law.
