Privacy notice

The Creative Wales team respect and wish to protect the privacy of the users of our services. As part of our delivery, we will sometimes need to process some personal data about you.

Processing your personal data is necessary in order to enable the Welsh Government to carry out its duties and responsibilities as part of its public task, and where we are marketing our services to you, we will only do so with your consent.

The Welsh Government is the data controller of personal data collected and used by Creative Wales for the purposes listed below.

If you sign up to the Creative Wales’ Creative Industries Marketing Newsletter then we will only use your personal information to administer your account and to provide the products and services you have requested from us.

We will send you news and information that we feel will be of interest to you from time to time about the creative industries in Wales including new case studies, initiatives and events you may be interested in depending on your role, company type and location. This information will be specifically aimed at driving growth across the creative industries, building on existing success and developing new talent and skills – positioning Wales as one of the best places for creative businesses to locate and thrive.

Following industry standard practice, when you unsubscribe your email address will be retained on a system suppression list to ensure you no longer receive emails from Creative Wales.

We will present you with the opportunity to be involved in research to help improve our services and policies. Completing these survey questionnaires is voluntary. The information supplied may be shared with a contracted research company for evaluation on our behalf and if you have agreed to be contacted for research purposes then you may be selected to receive follow up creative industries related research surveys from time to time.

We will give you an opportunity to renew your agreement to participate in research after three years, but this is voluntary. You may request to be removed from the list at any time by emailing us at creativewales@gov.wales.
